Thank you. Apparently that function was removed from the core at some point and I missed it. I just commited a fix for that. Wait a while for the development version zip to update, then try downloading again.

Are you selecting a category? That is required too.
@Modemlooper
I can tell by the error I got on one of your pages that you are not using the latest dev version of links.
http://tempsg.com/buddypress/
click the links link throws up error
but when I activate a child theme then when you click links it redirects to home page.
Could there be a path in the database that got messed up that it’s not linking correctly to buddypress?
Thanks,

The WordPress plugins repository is primarily for WordPress plugins!
Maybe Andy can code something to check a plugin’s meta for some new parameters on buddypress.org/extend/plugins?
FYI, my oEmbed plugin for BP 1.2 is coming either today or tomorrow 
You could code a theme to force a widgetized homepage but I think it always better to have options. By using a page template you can include different home page layouts. I just transferred the classic home page over.

Hi Andy,
I meant that there is no home.php template file as there was before, with some nice standard widget areas, making it easier to have a hmepage/landing page or whatever you want to call it.
But it is no big deal.
Ah, I just got a message from Modemlooper, as he already did something, thanks ML

Thanks for starting this list. There’s another forum list of broken bp 1.2 plugins but I can’t find it now. It would be a nice feature if BP Plugins pages allowed for some sort of commenting or rating of ‘works with 1.2’, etc. I know wordpress.org offers this (and that’s where the plugins are actually hosted) but buddypress.org is typically more active with current information. Right or wrong most comments regarding buddypress plugins are found here.
I haven’t spent enough time with 1.2 to say with certainty what’s working. I can say the following are Not for me:
Group Blog
Group Forum Subscription
Welcome Pack
Invite Anyone
Whenever I try to add a link i get the following error message:
Please fill in all of the required fields.
As far as I can tell there is only one field. The link url. The other 2, Edit Avatar Options & Edit Advanced Settings have nothing in them.
I am running wordpress single user, BP 1.2 stable and BP Links dev. version.
@Cyndy: The two posts above you give alternatives to using captcha. It’s not the “only known solution”. SPAMers use bots. Bots look for known text and urls… like “Powered by BuddyPress” or http://www.mysite.com/register or whatever. Changing those things can help a lot. And invisible defender helps too. All without captcha. Which I think everyone will agree… sucks.
I had to manually do an include of the bp-core.php file and then…
Perhaps another thing that may provide a clue.. I have the Remove BuddyPress Admin Bar plugin activated, but after coping the 1.03 directory back to the server, I have the Admin Bar still appearing.
Thanks,

I have 1.2 stable and the development version. Everything looks good with the exception of the link home page (not the Links page).
I get:
Call to undefined function bp_dtheme_firstname() in /public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-links/themes/bp-links-default/activity/post-form.php on line 18
Running WP 2.9.1 Single User
You need to upgrade to WPMU 2.9.1.1 to use BP 1.2.
Also since you were using 1.0.3, I would have recommended upgrading to 1.1.3 first before upgrading to 1.2.
One other thing, you might also need the BP Backwards Compatibility plugin:

great BuddyPress.org re-design, you are always out for a nice surprise
@r-a-y
Agreed. Group integration would be killer.
Arrowchat looks cool. Their screenshots advertise WordPress integration, so a BP integration should be quite simple.
Rather than having a fancy AJAX footer chat, I would much prefer a chat app that has some form of permissible group functionality.
Ok. So I’ve tried Comet Chat. Listen to me carefully..Do Not Buy. Horrible documentation, horrible support (or lack there of) and didn’t work properly with BuddyPress.
On the bright side. Here is what you need and should released with a week that will work with WordPress and I’m sure BuddyPress with little or no changes:

It sounds to me like the upgrade (or FTP) didn’t add and/or replace all of the included files.
Can you BACKUP and completely remove the entire plugins/buddypress directory from your installation, and install a fresh copy of 1.2?
Check http://dev.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2009/10/12/displaying-the-buddypress-admin-bar-in-other-applications/
I used it on bicipedia.com, will likely not work on 1.2, but have not tried yet.
Cheers,

I get the error message.. bp-loader.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist. The loader file is in the buddypress directory.. and when I go to activate the plugin the screen goes blank (white) and from there nothing… I have to rename the buddypress directory so WP does not look for it.. If I do not rename or delete buddypress my blog menu is inaccessible.
@idotter
If you can’t wait, just download the development version, it should work with 1.2.
@Modemlooper
At least two people have it working with single WP. Download the development version and give it a shot.
all the rest of the code is clean and conforms to how buddypress is coded. The only funky part is the lack of ajax integration. (However there is a small upside to the current implementation in that it can easily be bookmarked.)
The lack of ajax is OK for my project, but if anyone can help, I’ll dive in again and fix it. all i need are some pointers as to where to begin and how it flows in the code.
Yep, like it too (and the 6 minutes set up ).
Just installed 1.2 on a fresh install and works nice so far. But I noticed that the new standard theme does not have a home theme (like the buddypress.org) as was included before?
Will there be one later? It keeps me from switching my live BP site to 1.2 at the moment.
Cheers and thanks for the hard work in geting 1.2 out.
Is this updated for WP single?
