BuddyPress

I need to designate a subsite as root blog. I have found 2 answers in codex by either adding:
define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2); in wp-config.php or in bp-custom.php files. I’ve tried both methods and in both cases get the same error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in /home/ridgeroc/public_html/wp-includes/query.php on line 27

I have WP 3.3.1 and BP 1.5.3.1 installed.

It’s not clear from the above code because you didn’t use backticks but…

Make sure you are using 'BP_ROOT_BLOG' not ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’
ie before and after should be with' not ‘ or ’

Anyone there? after temporarily changing back the root blog back to “1″ – which I still need to figure out the problem changing root to “2″ – now almost all of my buddypress page links for all users are getting broken links.

Thanks – I’ll check the backticks. What is the preferred placement of the definition? I’ve found 2 different answers here in the codex. One in wp-config.php the other in bp-custom.php. Is one method obsolete?

I checked the code and the backticks wasn’t the problem:
define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2 );

Do you see anything incorrect here?

I’m still trying to solve this problem – has anyone successfully changed the Root_Blog ID?
