BuddyPress won’t be trying to load itself twice (the redefine errors), so something must be triggering part of that. It’s either BP Docs, or another BuddyPress plugin or customisation that you have.
So I am doing this for a work site at the moment. I suggest you set up a test site, which you can do test runs of your upgrade. Go through all the posts linked in the thread that mercime found the proper link for (sorry for broken link earlier), and update all your plugins — especially BuddyPress plugins.
If you are using any old BP plugins that haven’t been updated in the last year/year and a half, there’s a good chance it won’t work with BP 1.5.*
Check out bbPress if you want to see how it will eventually be used, or look at the code of my Achievements plugin (https://github.com/paulgibbs/achievements/) which is still in development, but if you look at the code, you see it’s been built to a very similar pattern.
They should all come from the same sender whn you use that type of plugin. Are you running any other plugins that might affect emails, or sending of them, etc
There are genuinely a lot of reasons why your web server may not be sending emails. The activation key is contained in this email. As a first step — and I’m sure someone will post here with a much more complicated answer soon — contact your web host and ask them if they support PHP’s mail() function; specifically, is PHP configured fully to send emails.
Most web servers can send emails, but the ‘From’ headers are not properly set, so most of the time, they don’t get delivered to the recipient properly.
If they come back and say that the From address in the email doesn’t match the name of your site (quite often this occurs in a virtual server situation), try https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/
Well, it’s one of the things I am more interested in to look at adding to core. Of course, just like anyone else, I need to make the case to the rest of the team that there ought to be a Like in BuddyPress, which is why I had a bit of an experiment in my Labs plugin.
If people like the idea for core, I would suggest they think the idea of a Like button through — bearing in mind we are changing how theming will be easier in 1.7 — in terms of where the button(s) should be, what should it do, any options it might merit, how it would replace Activity’s existing Favourite button. Perhaps even think about how it could be implemented in the code, and where the likes should be stored in a database, and how other 3rd party plugins could extend the Like button (I might want to make it work with my Achievements for BuddyPress, for example).
Once you’ve got something meaty, either post it somewhere on the BuddyPress.org forums, or make an enhancement ticket on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
Does one of these avatars (say, a group avatar) work on one site, but not the others? Can you share the URLs to the images that the default theme gives you? Can you confirm the version of WordPress and BuddyPress that you’re running?
