It’s because you’re installing on http://localhost/ — that won’t work (it might be fixed in WordPress 3.0, not sure), it needs to resemble a full domain name i.e. something.com.

Hi

Did you upgrade from a previous version? Have a look at your wp_x_options database table (where x is the blog ID you are using; if it’s the main blog, it’ll be wp_1_options). Look for record of option_name = ‘welcomepack’. If you send the option_value to me at paul@byotos.com, we can figure this out.

Still can’t enable the forum section, waiting for @apeatling to enable it for me

I have no idea if there’s a UI for this now, and no time to check, but you used to have to edit the appropiate records in the wp_blogs DB table. There’s an “archive” column, set it to 0.

I’m not sure what this has to do with BuddyPress, but there’s probably no need to cross post this.

To be honest I have no idea; I haven’t heard anything from the core devs regarding this for a few weeks.

Hi
Sidebar’s usually in /buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php. If you’ve got a more specific query, best write a forum post 🙂

I think also that Facebook turned off FB-Connect a few months ago?

Closing this thread per Jeff’s comments, I think discussion should continue in the thread that Stas’ linked to.

#2) Copy bp-default’s header.php into your child theme and edit it.

What is showing in your web server error log? and what WP/BP versions are you using?

Do not post your thread twice. It is not going to get you help any sooner.

@ruffrazor It’s as easy as putting it into the theme template files you require. Assume you’re building a child theme?

The default theme needs to showcase everything that BuddyPress can do. Like you point out, it’s down to individual sites to decide what BuddyPress features to use, which relates to what javascript will be required.

You definitely shouldn’t do direct SQL queries to add group members, like @travel-junkie says.

I wouldn’t want to see this, as getting messages from people I’ve not followed is really important on this site.
