CeSGO Dashboard 2.1.0

BuddyPress 14.3.3 is now available. This is a maintenance release.

14.3.3 fixes a mistake made in the build process for 14.3.1 (and 14.3.2 attempted to fix, but didn’t completely fix the issue, so was never released).

14.3.1 fixed two bugs:

• WordPress 6.7 compatibility: WP 6.7 will throw notices for plugins that load their textdomain before ‘init’ (see #9247).
• BP Legacy Theme Pack: Make sure the bp_heartbeat property is included in the WP Heartbeat data object (see #9248).

For complete details, visit the 14.3.1 changelog.

You can get the latest version by clicking on the above button, downloading it from the WordPress.org plugin directory or checking it out from our Subversion repository.

Many thanks to our 14.3.3 contributors

BuddyPress 14.2.1 is now available. This is a maintenance & security release. All BuddyPress installations should be updated as soon as possible.

The 14.2.1 release addresses the following security issue:

• The “Take Photo” feature (which uses the logged in user’s Webcam to capture their profile photo) was vulnerable to an authenticated (Subscriber+) directory traversal. Discovered by Domons from the Wordfence organization.

This vulnerability was reported privately to the BuddyPress team, in accordance with WordPress’s security policies. Our thanks to the reporter for practicing coordinated disclosure.

14.2.1 also fixes 3 bugs introduced in 14.0.0:

• Groups: move the invite_status group meta check out of the groups_join_group() function (see #9241).
• Administration: use the components right labels into the BP site health info panel (see #9237)
• Administration: resolve Multiple Issues with the BP constants site health info panel (see #9245)

For complete details, visit the 14.2.1 changelog.

You can get the latest version by clicking on the above button, downloading it from the WordPress.org plugin directory or checking it out from our Subversion repository.

If for a specific reason you can’t upgrade to 14.2.1, we have also ported the security fix to BuddyPress versions going all the way back to branch 11.0. Here’s the list of the available downloads for the corresponding tags, you can also find these links on our WordPress.org Plugin Directory “Advanced” page:

• If you are using BP 11.x and can’t upgrade to 14.2.1, please upgrade to 11.4.3
• If you are using BP 12.x and can’t upgrade to 14.2.1, please upgrade to 12.5.2

Many thanks to 14.2.1 contributors

We’re very excited to announce the immediate availability of BuddyPress 14.0.0 « Da Lucia », named after the excellent pizza restaurant located in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, France. Get it now from the WordPress.org plugin repository, or right from your WordPress Dashboard.

This new major version of your site’s community engine introduces around 80 changes mostly working under the hood to improve documentation, code formatting, consistency and the stability of the plugin. Here are five improvements we would like to highlight:

1. There’s a new “BuddyPress constants” panel added to the WordPress Site Health information tool. Use it to check whether you’re using deprecated constants in your custom code or third party BP Plugins/Add-ons. The information in the “BuddyPress” and “BuddyPress constants” panels is also very useful when you need to ask for support.
2. Most BuddyPress Admin screens now have a help tab in their top right corner which includes a link to an updated documentation resource.
3. Whether BuddyPress is installed on a multisite network or on a single site, signups are now managed the exact same way.
4. Speaking of signups, the BP REST API has been improved so that you can now submit values for any xProfile field registered as part of the Signups profile field group.
5. Last but not least, we again offer native support for overriding BuddyPress’s language with your community vocabulary using custom translations.

Take a few minutes to discover all changes reading this release note.

Compared to our previous major version (12.0.0 – the number right after was too intimidating ), 14.0.0 is a quieter update. After the huge BP Rewrites API revolution, the humans (us the BP Team) who maintain and support your favorite community plugin needed to catch their breath to get ready for the new round of big changes arriving in 15.0.0.

Let’s keep in mind BuddyPress is an open source project maintained by volunteers giving freely of their time and energy to help you build great WordPress community sites. Don’t hesitate to send us some encouraging words and please consider contributing back to the project.
