Code needed for backwards compatibility with previous versions of BuddyPress. Contains wire component, status updates, and functions that have been renamed or replaced.<\/p>\n\n

It also contains the original bp-classic and bp-sn-parent themes from 1.1, which have been updated to included the new code from BuddyPress 1.2.<\/p>\n\n

Use this plugin if your theme relies on functions or components that existed in BuddyPress versions less than 1.2.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin includes the wire and status update components. These components were merged into the activity stream in BuddyPress 1.2.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload \/buddypress-backwards-compatibility\/<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. A menu item named \"Legacy Components\" is added to the BuddyPress menu. Use this to turn on backwards compatibility support for those individual components.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n
    Why would I use this plugin<\/dt>\n
      \n
    1. If you want to use the wire component.<\/li>\n
    2. If you want to have dedicated status updates outside of activity stream updates.<\/li>\n
    3. If your theme uses functions that were removed or renamed in the lastest version of BuddyPress<\/li>\n
    4. If you are using plugins that have not updated to support the latest version of BuddyPress.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/dd>\n
      Does this plugin modify my existing data?<\/dt>\n

      No, but if using the wire or status updates components, it will attempt to upgrade or create the necessary tables those components need.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
