Before Upgrading BuddyDrive to 1.2.0
-
BuddyDrive is using plupload with custom settings. In WordPress 3.9, some of the plupload arguments have changed: see @kovshenin’s post.
WordPress 3.9 should be available really soon, and so should be BuddyPress 2.0. BuddyDrive 1.2.0 will require at least these two latest releases. As soon as they both will be released, i’ll upgrade BuddyDrive.
I stongly advise you to upgrade BuddyPress to 2.0 and to backup your database before upgrading BuddyDrive to 1.2.0. This release introduces some changes in the way the plugin loads as it will no longer be a network only plugin. As a result, before allowing BuddyDrive to run, i check that BuddyPress version is 2.0 and that they both use the same network config in case of multisite.
For instance, if BuddyPress is activated on a subsite, BuddyDrive must be, else it will ask you to do so.
If you don’t want to upgrade to 1.2.0, then i advise you to at least replace in
includes/buddydrive-item-classes.php
of version 1.1.1 line 726 to 742 by the lines 730 to 750 of the same file that can be copy pasted from the plugin’s github repo.This version also introduces some improvements in various areas (javascript, themes “adaptability”), new hooks to completely replace the plugin’s stylesheet or add custom fields to BuddyDrive files for instance, and some new “more visible” features such as a selectbox to sort the files by name or modified date, the user’s quota will be displayed in the statistics metabox of the new BuddyPress wp-admin/profile interface…
You can already test this version and help me find eventual bugs, from the github repo i’ve just created (you’ll need WordPress 3.9-RC2 and BuddyPress 2.0-RC1).
