Missing Progress Indicator for File Uploads
by samir09·2 years ago

Adding such an indicator would greatly enhance the user experience by providing better visibility into the process and preventing any confusion during file uploads.

Game changer
by Earl_D·2 years ago

Buddypress has needed this for such a long time. Yes it the first public version but it is a game changer. When will this get into BP core? Can’t wait.

Better than the rest already
by shawfactor·3 years ago

This plugin is not perfect but it is a big improvement on existing plugins that deliver the same functionality.

More importantly the progress of this plugin and eventual integration into BuddyPress core will ensure this functionality (which is essential for the vast majority of social networks) is done in a standard way. That will then enable other plugins to build upon it.
