If you like plugins that ruin your setup, pick this one. Despite the prior comments by the author it does not uninstall. It changes the default way BP handles the cover pics and when you uninstall it, you NO LONGER HAVE THE OPTION TO UPLOAD GROUP COVERS! THats right, it defaults you to some old version of BP from the days when there were no covers for groups. And the plug-in does NOT restore default function even when deleted. This is a true piece of junk that worked years ago but will be certain to break your install. And if you read the prior comments, people have said this for years and the developer just makes general remarks in response instead of fixing it or removing it from production. It may have been cool years ago but do yourself a favor and DO NOT EVEN THINK AVOIT IT. I don’t usually leave bad reviews but this is a warning to those who might tempt fate. Not worth it. Ha, there are so many things wrong with it. It adds duplicate covers, one over the other, and you have to delete one, only to have the default show up again, improperly sized. Then, when you realize you don’t want it, it’s too late, because uninstalling it means that you now cannot upload group covers. Lol. Either fix it or shut it down.

After selecting the option “Leave BP Cover plugin functionality instead of BP 2.4 core” it destroyed my site. Do not install this plugin!! As mentioned in a ticket with no resolution from 2 years ago, there’s no way to revert back. I now have to restore my site and redo all my other recent changes. Beware that this plugin may break your site.
