First of all, I'm sorry for not participating in beta testing. Life kinda got in the way.
Second, excellent job as usual! All seems to be going well with testing of 5.0 on our (multisite) dev install. Thanks for all the hard work.
I have only encountered on issue so far that I need help with...
We use WP Avatars as the first priority for avatar display. So I have a notice with a link to the WP User Profile page in the Profile Overview Message to direct users there for uploading their avatar. (We do this for compatibility with our network wide avatars plugin.)
This link, however, has broken since the update. The hyperlink appears to be relative with the profile page being added as the root and slashes being added before quotes...

- Any chance someone can provide a quick fix for adding clean hyperlink to profile overview message?
- Might you consider adding an option for directing users to the WP User Profile page on the Avatars tab of their profile for times when WP is the preferred Avatars choice? Perhaps if WP Avatars is selected as primary choice, show a message on the Edit Avatar tab with a link to the WP User Profile page?

Just bumping this to see if it may have been overlooked...

sorry... can you clarify the problem? links in profile overview?? there are none...
are you saying you tried to add a link to the overview message and it came out wrong? how did you enter the message and link (ie exact content using code button)

Yes, the URL I pasted above is the result of the hyperlink in the following code which renders fine in 4.x on our live site.
<strong>NOTE:</strong> Upload your member avatar picture by visiting <a href="http://tripawds.com/wp-admin/profile.php?page=user-avatar" target="_blank">your Tripawds User Dashboard</a>. If you have a blog, click the Users -> Your Avatar tab.
I have tried it with single quotes and no quotes and neither helped.
Sorry for the confusion.
For a future update you might consider inserting a link to the WP profile page for uploading avatars on the Edit Avatar tab within a users forum profile if the avatar priority is set to WP Avatars first. (Then such a message would be unnecessary.) Just a thought...

couple things...
one, with that text I can recreate the problem... so will open a ticket to resolve...
two, that is not a standard wp profile page.. you must get that from a plugin...

Awesome, thanks for the quick fix. I will implement it and report back with any issues.
Yes, we are using a network-wide Avatars plugin that shows user avatars anywhere the user comments throughout our multisite community.
For future consideration... Perhaps when WP Avatars is selected as the priority in SPF, the Edit Avatar tab in a user's forum profile could simply say "Please visit your user dashboard to update your avatar." Better yet, include an option for inserting a message on that tab? Or maybe this should be written into the Profile Display Control plugin.
Let's see, where was that feature request forum again? ...

FYI: Code fix above worked like a charm for properly rendering hyperlink in profile overview message.
Thanks again!
