Description

Using r6408 of BuddyPress trunk and r22236 of WP trunk.

Once you activate BuddyPress a "Settings" link is added to the plugin listing. The link directs you to a page that is not accessible. I believe you need to run through the installation wizard before this page is enabled.

I've attached a page that changes "Settings" to "Wizard" and directs you to the installation wizard instead. Once you've run the installation wizard the link changes back to settings since the page is accessible.

Fix the settings link pre-wizard.

There might be a better name for the link that "Wizard", since that's not really a call to action. I guess "Install" would be another option, but that feels a little awkward post-activation.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

(In [6422]) Remove Settings link on plugins.php and replace with Setup Wizard in installation mode

When activating BP for the first time, and before running the setup wizard,
the Settings page is inoperative. So there should not be a Settings link on
the BuddyPress row of the Plugins panel. Instead, show a Setup Wizard link
at these times.

Fixes #4603
