Description

12.0.0 is a sensitive release as we expect some 3rd party BuddyPress plugins won't be ready for the BP Rewrites API.

Instead of the regular link to the version changelog, I suggest we use a 12.0 upgrade notice a bit more elaborated.

= 12.0.0 =
- See: https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/version-12-0-0/
- Before upgrading to version 12.0.0 & if you are using one or more third party BuddyPress plugins that have not been updated lately, please make sure to download and activate the "BP Classic" backwards compatibility Add-on from your "Add New Plugin" Dashboard menu.
