I installed BuddyPress and it crashed my site, so I installed it on two test-sites we own. We were locked out of the dash board on all three attempts. I deleted the plugin files via ftp and replaced the .htaccess file before I could access the dashboards again. The .htaccess files needed to be replaced because the following two lines of code mysteriously disappeared:
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
We are wondering if the problem lies with our hosting company, as we have had similar issues with the .htaccess file before. (We use 1and1.com).
I really need this functionality on my website and would very much appreciate any advice or assistance in this matter.
Thank you!!!
