Yes, applicable information does need to get to the codex; thanks for helping!

@foxly I can’t say “thanks” enough for the effort you guys are putting into 1.5 compatibility. This is a *huge* help to the community (and benefits you too, since it gets 1.5 out sooner )

It’ll be great to get @karmatosed write-access to the google doc. She has stepped up and taken a leadership role with a 1.5-compat codex page and with this forum thread, and it will be great for you to combine your resources – BP Media checking compatibility in-house, and @karmatosed (and others) collecting reports, etc from the forums.

Again, thanks so much.

@boonebgorges You’re welcome …

We’ve thrown some resources your way!

1) Our testers are currently checking every BuddyPress plugin with > 1000 downloads. Our throughput is about thirty a day. Thus far, 85% fail (as in cannot be used) rate.

@karmatosed …email me [CarlRoett] -at- [Gmail.com] and we’ll give you write access to the spreadsheet and wiki.

2) Our core devs are currently building a wiki to help other developers transition their plugins. Estimated finished in 2 days.

3) OurSIGINT guys are doing their best to contact everyone with incompatible plugins and give them a “heads up”. We didn’t know about 1.5 until we stumbled across it in the forum, and we suspect the situation is similar for many other developers.

Hope this helps get things rolling!

Can you tell we really, really want 1.5 released to production…

I don’t know if it is exactly what you had in mind, but I’d like to see the ability to +1/Like/Vote up any particular content in Buddypress, so I submitted a feature request ticket.

@foxly Thanks so much for the kind words! Means a lot coming from a seasoned dev like yourself. Looking forward to seeing you in the dev chat!

Reposting the spam is not going to help at all.

@davidtcarson How can I get the theme to work?
@intermike How did you get it to work?

Please help me fix it. The theme’s screenshots look amazing, I hope I can get it to work.
Thanks.

Did you look in the skeleton component? Not sure if this will work but you create a page/tab/slug attached to a root slug with something like this.

`function bp_foo_setup_nav() {
global $bp;

bp_core_new_subnav_item( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘My Slug’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘slug’ => ‘foo’,
‘parent_slug’ => $bp->BP_MEMBERS_SLUG->slug,
‘parent_url’ => $BP_MEMBERS_SLUG,
‘screen_function’ => ‘bp_foo_page’,
‘position’ => 10
) );

}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘bp_foo_setup_nav’ );`

@karmatosed

BuddyPress Media is now fully compatible with BuddyPress 1.5. We have a beta version available at the link below, and we’ll issue a release to production next week (once our test team are finished with it).

http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-media/downloads/detail?name=bp-album_2011-08-07_BETA.zip

When listing us on the compatible plugins page, please list us as “BuddyPress Media”, and link to this URL: “http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-media/”. BP-Album will *cease to exist* after BuddyPress 1.5 is released (it will turn into BuddyPress Media).

On behalf of the Buddypress Media team, congratulations on your new release. We’ve spent the past three days going through your code, and we’re just *astonished* at the improvements in structure, efficiency, and documentation!

This could be worth cake …

We’ll be dropping by your dev chat this Wednesday to bombard you with questions and talk about what we can do to help get other key plugins working with 1.5 as quickly as possible.

See you there!
