BuddyPress.org

@bennadler The problem with doing it that way (in BuddyPress core) is for installs where /wp-content/ is moved out of the WordPress root and located somewhere else, which is a common configuration for the more security minded folks.

That fix will work for most everyone else however.

@ronia you should put bp-custom.php file into the wp-content/plugins folder. Don’t put it into plugins/buddypress. Becasue bp-custom is a custom file which runs before your BP plugin. So that’s how it works.

@bennadler I didn’t use your code but I re-uploaded all files into the root directory and it worked.

@bennadler – Thanks again. Where exactly you have put bp-custom.php ? I tried in all the documented paths, and yes php code wrapped around. My test site is ** subdirectory ** based and cannot get to work. A link to your active site will be appreciated.

@bennadler – Thanks! But it is not WordPress MU – it is WordPress 3 as multisite (sub directories) – the code is not working.

@bennadler, I think that issue was fixed here.

Probably old news to you by now…
