    And a bit more —
    I tried using buddy press GROUPS as a way to keep content ‘private’ from one group of students to the next. This works … but WP POSTS would no longer be a way to include content and as I mentioned POSTs are a great way to be able to post content, still images, and slide shows….

    Any suggestions??

    Hey Paul —
    Sorry for all the rambling. For your initial response it sounds like I simply can’t get all of the social networking capabilities that BP provides (robust profiles, on-going ‘activity’ stuff, etc) on WP with multiple sites. Right?

    Hence my choices are — separate sites — which wouldn’t permit any content to be shared, but would have all the BP offers. Or, multiple WP sites – looking for plugins to try to replicate as many of the social networking functions as might be possible.

    Right??

    Hi Paul —
    Thank you very much for the rapid reply. Yes — I would like to be able to have social networking type of on functionality on multiple WordPress sites in an MS environment.

    I’m trying to create a kind of social networking environment to teach small private classes (in photography) in a single install of BD on a single WP site, I couldn’t find a way to provide students taking a particular class access to a private set of POSTS in a single install of WP, hence the leap into Multisite. Posts provide a much richer way for students and teachers to share rich media than spaces like Forums.

    It sounds like I can’t get ‘multiple blogs’ in BP and can’t get ‘multiple’ social networking tools — beyond Forums — in a multi-site install — RIGHT?

    I do NOT one to re-locate a single buddypress install, which is what I believed you referenced above in the post about secondary blogs.

    Hope this is clear —

    Please give me your best advise.

    THANKS!

    I looked at trying to accomplish my goal in a single site and
