Plugins not showing up in WPMU

Hello!

I just installed WPMU in what I believe is my root. I can go to the main website address and WPMU shows up.

Then I downloaded all of the zip files for BuddyPress, and uploaded the proper files and folders as per the txt INSTALL file. I looked in my WPMU plugins page in the dashboard and no plugins show up.

I imagine this is why my profile isn’t showing up either?

Am I missing something? I thought I understood this all…

Thanks!

Erik

Did you install them in /mu-plugins/ or just /plugins/?

Plugins installed in /mu-plugins/, such as BuddyPress, will not show up on the plugins page as plugins in this folder are automatically activated across the entire WPMU install.

On the other hand, if plugins are only needed on a blog-by-blog basis they are to be installed in the regular /plugins/ directory and will be shown on the plugins page just as in regular wordpress.

The BuddyPress plugins are supposed to be installed in /mu-plugins/ per step 3 of the instructions.
