hey everyone,

i just installed buddypress.. have to say it’s pretty easy!

..but there is something broken in my permalinkstructure.

my wordpress installation is a bit more advanced:

(http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory)

-wordpress is not in the root; it’s in a subfolder called “cms”

-(the wp-content folder is in the root and called “content”)

so my wp-config.php looks like this:

define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://hidden.url/cms');

define('WP_HOME', 'http://hidden.url');

define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', '/www/htdocs/hidden.url/content' );

define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', WP_HOME . '/content');

every wordpress related blog link will be generated as expected:

http://hidden.url/my-category/hello-world/

http://hidden.url/my-page

but every buddypress related link looks like this:

http://hidden.url/cms/activity/

http://hidden.url/cms/members/

http://hidden.url/cms/forums/

when i manually remove the ‘cms’ part from the url it works, too: http://bp.liqq.de/forums/

is there a clean way to remove the cms/ in the uri?

i think it’s a bug. just searched the whole buddypress plugin for the ‘generate_rewrite_rules’ hook, but buddypress seem to write them otherwise?

let me know if i got something wrong!

cheers,

mathias

I have the same issue as you, did you find a fix or did you manually correct the links?

Read this:

This is more of a workaround though.

Also, just wondering… what version of BP are you running? Did you try BP 1.2.4.1? If not, try upgrading to see if this issue is fixed in the new version.

@r-a-y

Read the post and trie the code, no luck (see http://www.imbaalumni.com). I have posted my bp-custom.php file here, http://pastebin.com/M0NPB2Dk

I am running WP 2.9.2 and BP 1.2.4.1

Any help would be appreciated.
