@firetag said 1 month, 1 week ago: @r-a-y yes it’s totally safe but in order to maintain forwards compatability with the plugin it’s best to only use on installations that currently don’t have any groups If I eliminate the groups previously created and install this amazing plugin and then I re-create the groups, Will it still be [...]

@r-a-y Hi Ray,
I’m very very new to WP and buddy press. But I have a project where I need some customaisations done to my wordpress site which I primarily want to serve as a social meetup site where people can come and see the details of events comin up (which will be organised by me and my partner) and they can RSVP. I dont want to give users ability to create groups. the groups will be created by me and users can join them if they like. Also I want to establish the forum fucntionality with different discussion boards like ”Introductions”, ”New to London” ”techinical issues and questions” etc.
Apart from this I want a event sceduling system which displays the evnts detaiils along with google maps and also allows users to RSVP so I get a fair count of how many will attend. Will you be willing to help me on this? Amongst other things that I wanted is a terms and condition page before they start signing up. also users cannot read anything except a default article without signing in. after signing in they have usual access. Also past events should reflect who the attendees were. and only the attendees can PM each other. Will you be willing to help me on this? my email is bradp90210@googlemail.com -

@r-a-y is right – the fix isn’t relevant for the 1.2 branch.

Are you talking about uploading an avatar to buddypress.org?
If so, that’s a known bug on the site.However, you can set your gravatar at gravatar.com and buddypress.org should pick it up.

Sounds like a problem with your “Suffusion” theme.
Can you switch to the BuddyPress Default theme to see what happens?

Boone’s fix isn’t in 1.3 trunk; bp.org is running a customized build of 1.3 at the moment.
Like JJJ mentioned, stick to 1.2 branch until 1.3 gets some merge love in the coming months.

@johnwinch42 – If you’re just testing BuddyPress locally, I would just login to PHPMyAdmin and clear out your entire activity table so you won’t have to worry about redirections.
Like you mentioned, once you set the BP_ROOT_BLOG from the onset, you won’t have to worry about redirects whatsoever!

@r-a-y Thanks you SO MUCH ! This fixed my problem, I’m still having some bad links redirecting to the previous locations on the activity page but when I’ll install my wordpress + buddypres on my server there should be nothing like this, if I define the right BP Root from the beginning. No ? I’m using [...]

@johnwinch42 – Can you try out the fix in this ticket?
http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2604I believe this will fix your problem, as your subdirectory install is located one level deeper than expected.

Redirects should work from all blogs since you’re using a subdirectory, although I’m not sure why you would need to redirect all the other blogs except the root one.

@r-a-y @r-a-y, I installed bp on root blog#1, enabled bp theme on blog#2. Then, I followed your article and redirected bp permalinks from http://mydomain.com to http://mydomain.com/blog#2
This works perfect for all personal links on Adminbar, but it doesn’t work for links without a trailling slash. For example, http://mydomain.com/members deosn’t work, it goes to root home page. http://mydomain.com/members/ works, it goes to blog#2’s member directory.
If not for this bp redirects, I can see my sites can automatically add trailling slashes to the links.
From your instruction of ”RedirectMatch 301 ^/members/(.*)$ ….”, I can see you need this / to bring up any stuffs under the directory… but, is there a fix?
By the way, does this redirects all the bp permalinks sitewide(from blog#3, #4….#10 to blog#2) without repeat 301 Redirects for each blog ?
RegardsI recommend to use a trailing slash.
Redirects should work from all blogs since you’re using a subdirectory, although I’m not sure why you would need to redirect all the other blogs except the root one.
Both root and others are redirected, that’s what I need– make one central community for all blogs.
I tried install bp on blog#2, but since it’s very difficult to get activity displaying on root sidbar, so I changed to install bp on root without using bp theme on root. Hope redirects still works sitewide on this install.
As for the trailling slash– my site permalinks are /%postname%/ (with trailling slash), other than that I don’t see anywhere else I can modify site url. When I type in a url, WP automatically add a / , but when type in the mydomain.com/bp slug , WP doesn’t add a trailling slash, I don’t know why.
