    My wp-config.php file is noted below. I’ve installed Buddypress in the main “Network Admin” site…and set it to ‘Network Activate’. HERE is what I’ve defined in the WP-CONFIG.PHP file:

    define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);
    define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );
    define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
    define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );
    $base = ‘/’;
    define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘www.networkit.com’ );
    define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
    define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
    define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
    /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

    /** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
    if ( !defined(‘ABSPATH’) )
    define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’);

    /** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
    require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’);

    You see any problems here? Much thanks for your time @hnla

    Wow. I’ve been using the google approach, but just assumed that their search functionality had to work. Virtually every CMS site I look at has a search box on it. If it truly is a element that can’t be fixed….what about integrating at least a Google search box on the site. Hmmm.

    Thanks @foxly for the update.

    @topracer

    Seems that maybe they are only showing the BASE fields…and a user must return to EDIT their profile in order to complete the process. This keeps registration short, but there should be a way to INFORM new users that their not finished. I normally use WelcomePack plugin for this, but I’m having problems with it presently as well.

    OK, so the search functionality doesn’t work then. Bummer. Kinda hard to look for other posts (and thereby eliminate redundant posts) w/out that ability. Hmmm…. Anyhow, thats @peeld.

    BUMP please. I really need to get this fixed. Much thanks.

    @topracer

    BUMP….please help. This is pretty core functionality issues and without this working – the community aspect really can’t work. Can someone recommend a paid consultant since support doesn’t seem to be quick enough to turn this around for me (and therefore my client….). Appreciated.

    @topracer

    I second the question on where to go for PAID advice. BP is far enough along now that some of us ARE using this for business functionality and at times….need answers (and will pay) quickly. Much thanks.

    @mercime – much thanks for your time…this has been a REAL bugger to figure out (and I”m getting nowhere)….

    Well….this is sorta weird. I don’t see a .htaccess file (am using Dreamweaver) on the server…BUT, I do have one locally (no idea why there’s one there, but not on the server – it’s been over a year ago since I’ve set this up originally and the mind is getting a bit rusty :-) Should I upload the local .htaccess below to my root directory of network it.com you think?

    The local version reads like this:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]

    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ – [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    SetEnv TZ America/United_States/New_York

    My problem is similar Paul…my normal page permalinks seem to be working fine.

    I have a WP 3.3 setup using BP 1.5.2 in a mulitsite ENABLED platform. Sometimes the links work properly…but in other areas of the network, links don’t. NAMELY, the URLs to Member Profiles don’t link properly from the MAIN site.

    Background – the ‘main’ site in our multisite platform is called “networkit.com”. One of our subsites is “tvhra” and found at http://www.networkit.com/tvhra

    Overall, links seem to work fine within the TVHRA site when linking to member profiles, activity, forum topics, etc….all good.

    However, from the main site (and i’m signed in as the site admin) – BP members section (found here http://www.networkit.com/community/members/ ) – if I click on a member name, such as “Betty Kidd” who signed up originally on the networkit.com/tvhra blog site, her link tries to go to: http://www.networkit.com/community/members/bkidd/ – instead it just refreshs back to the designated home page for networkit.com

    The url is wrong…should be going to http://www.networkit.com/tvhra/our-community/members/bkidd/

    Note that in the main site, all BP components are under parent page “community’, but in the subsite, the BP components are under parent page “our-community”…don’t think that’s the problem, but thought I’d point it out.

    ACTIONS TAKEN THUS FAR TO DIAGNOSE:
    I’ve already deactivated all plug-ins on the MAIN Network Admin panel, and in the NETWORKIT.COM panel AND in the TVHRA panel. Then deactivated BP. Reactivated just BP and still have the same persistent problem. UUGGGHH.

    The intellect of this community is far above mine…..any thoughts on why this is acting this way and what I need to do to fix the problem?

    FINAL NOTE: I dd see a thread on this started about 1.5 years ago, with 30+ posts…and no real evident answer…so, I’m trying again fresh.

    Much, much thanks!

    @topracer

    Are you able to sign-in to the backend of your site? As in, http://www.yoursitename/wp-login.php

    If you can get in, you should be able to activate your Buddypress theme. Hope that helps.

    I too am having similar problems since upgrading to BP 1.5.. I have a WP 3.3 setup using BP 1.5.2 in a mulitsite ENABLED platform. Sometimes the links work properly…but in other areas of the network, links don’t.

    I on the otherhand have the same problem as @mercime; however, I still can’t see my topics. On my ‘Your Activity’ screen…I can see old posts when you username / display name were the same, but none since I changed by Display name. Any advice?

    @topracer

    I have the same question…thanks.


    Brian Bowman

    @topracer

    I too have asked how to get the extended profile fields to display….NO ANSWER FROM ANYONE. This support forum is really quite poor. Sorta ‘open source’ – you get what you pay for in terms of support (or lack of it…).


    Brian Bowman

    @topracer

    I’ve added extended fields per buddypress’s capabilities; however, they don’t show up in my registration process….any idea why not and what I need to do about it:

    Here is a completed profile where someone actually went back into their EDIT PROFILE and finished adding all the data: http://www.localjobs.com/blog/members/jimtait/profile/

    Yet, even then – not all the REQUIRED fields are showing up on EDIT mode.

    And here is the URL to register…and you can see that just a small bit of those initial fields actually during a new registration process – and my REQUIRED fields don’t show up either: http://www.localjobs.com/blog/register

    Any ideas what I’m doing wrong? I’m asking this here because I’m getting zero responses after 3 weeks in the HOW-TO section having asked the same questions and this can’t be that hard to answer….

    Much thanks.

    I’m running BP 1.2.6 – and I’ve found a few threads – namely that the changes in that ver are affecting things like avatar images and double “Frienship Request” buttons (among others). This seems to be on a theme-by-theme basis. You’ll need to get an update of your theme which should fix the problems….. Im using some from WPMUDev.com and they expect to have the theme updates out shortly.

    @paulhastings0 – I was able to setup a local host environment on a Mac for WP 3.0.1 AND enabling the multisite user (though I never got to testing any sites in DW yet as I immediately installed BP). An outstanding tutorial on how to do this can be found here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-set-up-a-killer-wordpress-testing-environment-locally/

    Ditto the problem here. We can’t be the only three that work with CS5 and Buddypress. Any answers here …. pretty please.
