Re: Upgrade from 1.1.3 broke a lot
Before performing such a major upgrade (both WordPress and BuddyPress), you should backup your database. Next, it is always best to be safe than sorry. Deactivate all plugins. This means BuddyPress too, as it is a WordPress plugin. Once WP is up and running, it is time to upgrade BuddyPress. You should read the additional details here: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/upgrading-from-10x/ See the “Upgrading from 1.1.x to 1.2.5” section, paying special attention to the notes on the theme files.
Finally, you need to upgrade any BP-dependent plugins before reactivating them. If any of these have not been upgraded to work with at least BP 1.2.5, then they should not be reactivated. Nicola’s plugins are very outdated and will not work with the current version of BP.
