Blogs: You have to enable multisite in your WP install first before you can let journalists create their own blogs. Read how to https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network Template Pack: Here’s a BP Template Pack walkthrough which could shed some light on how to add styles -…[Read more]

What karmatosed said. For #1 with Template Pack, make sure you have before ending tag in footer.php

@hnla thank you. Will check new version tonight and report back 🙂

@andrea_r I recall a thread about this some time ago and the **hint** guru **cough** 🙂
With the major changes between BP 1.2+ and BP 1.3 bleeding I see right now, could be some devs are waiting till after BP 1.3 stable to make “some time to work on it” 🙂

@karmatosed tested that plugin and it’s not up to date

@avahaf This is an alternative way of having a group blog without requiring a new physical blog

Blog Categories For Groups

== hmmm I paid for this and get charged monthly somebody please give us the fix. == @dougison WP and BP are free downloads, perhaps you mean you’re paying for your hosting? In any case, did you use the auto-install of BP? Then try to upload BuddyPress plugin again via FTP or cPanel. After activating BuddyPress, […]

@boonebgorges @zigzag
Looks like @Aekeron is back!

@ddgdaily – on the Thesis theme, sorry, I don’t use it. I recall some Thesis users a while ago who mentioned getting info from Thesis support forums to get BP compatibility on using the BP Template Pack. Why not just backup database tables and server files then go maintenance mode for an hour to test BP […]

@manimaranvel BuddyPress can only be activated once in either the main site or a secondary blog of a WP Multisite installation – there is no BP multisite at this time. If you allowed your members to create own blogs and then want to show the member profile in his/her blog, you can use a plugin – […]

99% who help out here in the BP forums are volunteers. On a very rare day, someone might come into the forums and make a long long list of all that they need for a BP site and get spoonfed with all the answers in one go, though I haven’t seen that happen totally. I […]

@hnla same experience as @chiinook in WP 3.0.3 – BP 1.2.6 test install – WP Multisite installed in root with subdomain structure and BP installed in primary blog.
Also, in plugin’s admin settings page, the link to http://mysite.com/wp-admin/%3C?php%20echo%20site_url%28%29%20?%3E/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-profile-setup leads to 404 page where
