Burt, I was agreeing with you.
You haven’t uploaded the member theme files to the correct location.
Check the install directions carefully and try again.
The proof of this is in wp-admin/options-permalink.php, where “/blog” is permanently placed in front of the permalink url on lines 82, 92, and 102.
The function I was thinking of in functions.php was bp_show_home_blog(), but it doesn’t do exactly what I thought it did the way I thought it did it.
No it isn’t going to as of yet.
There is no direct link between a normal forum and BuddyPress. Perhaps the bbGroups plugin could be modified to handle this type of thing, but that’s just handing Burt more implied work to do.
Good job getting everything synchronized though!
Naw it’s not even really like that… yet…
For me, right now it’s more like an easter egg hunt…
Look for the solution, find it, return it to the basket.
In that analogy, you’re the basket I guess…
Wow that’s neat.
Any demos? I couldn’t find one after 2 seconds so I got lazy and figured I’d ask.
The point is to allow multiple users per blog, as editors, admins, etc…
Good work figuring it out tho! See, us mods do know a thing or two!
WordPress has always allowed for multiple ways to access a specific post, even if your permalink structure is setup in a specific way.

Granted, this is on a non-MU install, but MU suffers the same fate, only with multiple blogs.
Without having
/blogor/newsor/somethingthere, now you’re opening up the risk of having overlapping post/page slugs. If you write a blog entry named “members” what would you want to happen? Goto the blog post, or BuddyPress’s members page? Multiple that times 100 individual minds blogging outside of your control, and you see how that can be dangerous.Trust me when I say that I understand what you’re saying, I do, and I can see how this could be something to consider when making the move to use MU and/or BuddyPress, but Google can recover quickly and so can your 5000 posts if they’re important and relevant.
Also, just for fun, lets goto…

Not quite ready to mark this one green, but it looks like a correctly installed BuddyPress/MU won’t give you this problem…
I would do this by going into
/member-themes/buddypress-member/blogs/create.phpand doing…<?php if ( bp_blog_signup_enabled() ) : ?>
<?php
global $bp;
$blogs = bp_blogs_get_blogs_for_user($bp->loggedin_user->id);
if ($blogs['count'] != 9)
{
bp_show_blog_signup_form();
}
else
{
?>
<div id="message" class="info">
<?php _e( 'Limit nine blogs per member. If you would like another, please contact an Admin for assistance.', 'buddypress' ); ?>
</div>
<?php
}
?>
<?php else: ?>
<div id="message" class="info">
<?php _e( 'Blog registration is currently disabled', 'buddypress' ); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>Just remember not to overwrite the member theme if you do a BuddyPress update.
Hahah! If by sexy sexy you mean dedicated BuddyPress supporter, then I’m forced to agree.
Thanks for greening this.
