Creating a new component

1. Hi Brajesh,

   I need to create a new component called Contact. Basically a page where I can put in my contact form. I am doing something like this, but this re directs me to 404 page

   function show_contact_link(){
   	echo '<a href="';
   	site_url();
   	echo 'contact">Contact</a>';
   }
   //now the code to handle /contact url
   function bp_contact_screen_function() {
       global $bp;
   	if($bp->current_component=="contact"){
   		bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( "contact_my_contact", 'contact' ) );
   	}
   }
   add_action( 'wp', 'bp_contact_screen_function',5);
   
   function bp_is_contact(){
   	global $bp;
   	if($bp->current_component=="contact")
   		return true;
   	return false;
   }

2. Hi Gwu,
   if you are on bp 1.2.9, putting this code should fix it. In 1.5, it will need more updates though.

   function bp_add_contact_component(){
   
   bp_core_add_root_component('contact');
   }
   add_action('bp_setup_root_components','bp_add_contact_component',2);

3. It will be helpful if you can tell me how can i get this working on 1.5. eventually we have to upgrade to 1.5 and unfortunately BP never upgrades seamlessly. it always breaks plugins/custom work put in the previous version.

   this is one thing i dislike about BP.
