I’ve been working away at trying to get as much cool stuff into BP-Like as possible, so I haven’t forgotten you guys!

I can confirm that the release will coincide with the BuddyPress 1.3 release. I didn’t want to release something that would possibly need updating shortly after (I’ll leave that for bug fixes!)

http://bplike.wordpress.com/2011/05/22/a-belated-update-on-progress/ Explains that I was away for the last few months trying to get elected! I will be working hard on a beta tomorrow as I have the whole day off. Many of the requests that I’ve heard will be rolled into this release – see it as a brand new plugin (all old data […]

I’ve just posted a blog post about the changes happening in 0.0.9, take a read of it and come back to discuss! http://wp.me/pP9cz-11

Hempsworth posted an update in the group BuddyPress Like: 13 years, 11 months ago

Big changes are coming in 0.0.9; a revamped ‘View Likes’ UI and a change in the architecture allowing ANY content to be liked (think events, photos, forums, comments).

Read about it here and give your input: http://wp.me/pP9cz-11

0.0.8 Beta 2 is now ready for any last testing. http://wp.me/pP9cz-K
This will be the last beta, and I should be releasing it tomorrow if no show-stoppers are found.

If friendships arent allowed, does this actually provide any advances on the plugin, or does it still just allow you to like? Is there a way to remove the favourites function now there is a like?
- Alex replied 13 years, 12 months ago
  
  If friendships are disabled, you won’t be able to see how many of your friends have liked any given content. For example, you might want to show users “3 of your friends like this” etc. But it still works just fine if friendships are disabled.
  
  I will include the ability to disable the ‘Favourite’ functionality in 0.0.9

    Can you not just have it so, 6 people liked this, @tom, @dick, @harry etc?
    
    Should it bump the activity to the top? I noticed @dwkeys was looking into this ages ago?
    
    Will 0.09 be sometime coming relatively quickly, or is it likely to be a few months? Thanks for your hard work, this could be a massively popular plugin with the stats bits!

      In the settings panel, under “‘View Likes’ Visibility”, select ‘Show names of all likers’ and that’s the output you will get.
      
      It currently won’t change the location of the activity in the stream, however I would really like to look into that feature; showing most popular content first, or content which the users friends are liking as well.

Could anybody willing to test the 0.0.8-alpha release with an existing 0.0.7 install please report their findings. Need some more feedback before I can release! Thanks everyone.
