Yes, the Featured Members Widget is working just fine on WP 3.0 and BP 1.2.5.2. So, you will have no issues. As far as your other question, the answer is yes. You find the member’s ID by logging into the back end of WP as Site Admin.

Just navigate to the “Site Admin > Users” menu and hover your mouse over the member’s username. Look down in your browser’s status bar at the URL for that member and you will see–as part of that URL–the “user_id=” segment. The number right after that is the member’s ID in the system. An easier way to find this information is to look at the wp_users table in your MySQL database.
