BP Quickpress is a possibility:

If you’re using WPMU, you could also try BP Groupblog:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-groupblog/
Though you need to create a group before you can enable a blog.
i mean how do i set them up? I dont see a link to blogs or user blogs anywhere?
That means you’re using standard WordPress. So you won’t see a link to blogs.
If you set up your new users with the role of “contributor” or higher, they can post.
Login to the WP backend and navigate to “Settings > General” and select “Contributor”.
Then download a plugin like:
Posthaste:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/posthaste/
or Quick Post Widget:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/quick-post-widget/
Also please refrain from bumping your own post every hour. Bumping your thread every 24 hours is enough.
How do you get either of these set up as a separate page?
what is bumping a post?
@holgria – Try reading each plugin’s documentation or their corresponding support forum to find out more.
eg. Posthaste FAQ – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/posthaste/faq/
You might have to change the user role to “Author” in order for those plugins to work.
“Bumping a post” means replying to your own post in an attempt to get a response.
Thanks. I’m really sorry about the bumping, I didn’t know you could edit your posts.
I don’t really do forums much. Sorry if I’m not using proper etiquette.
I read throught the FAQs for everything and I installed quickpress but I don’t think it did anything.
I just want each user to have their own blog with wordpress and buddypress installed is that possible?
or do i need wordpressmu to do that?
Sorry for recommending Quickpress, it works only with WPMU. Try one of the other plugins I listed above.
If you want each user to have their own seperate blog, then yes, you’ll have to use WPMU or you can wait until WP 3.0 is released.
