BP Codex is your friend, BP requires pretty permalinks – https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/

1) Depends if you’re using the same theme/child theme for both/all blogs. If you are doing so, both should have same styles.
2) https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpmu-new-blog-defaults/ or https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/yd-wpmu-sitewide-options/
3) see New Bkig Defaults plugin above

@hnla there was something about BP.org UX/UI in Ninjas forum topic and writeboard, but haven’t read one specific re bp-default. Is that in trac and/or discussed in BP IRC? In any case, count me in 🙂

“My host informs that when I installed wordpress it was not wordpress MU. Could this be the issue? ” No, that is not the issue. BP works in single WP. But if you want to give your members their own blogs, then you have to go multisite, i.e. create a network. You should also check out […]

@johnwinch42 those are definitely cool options but no plugin has been released for those functions yet.
Check out https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/creating-a-custom-buddypress-component/ – Unfortunately the BP Skeleton Component has not been upgraded since Feb 2010 – ping! @djpaul ping! @boonebgorges

@intimez – check out @hotforword’s fix/upgrade to BP Template Pack – https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/buddypress-template-pack-and-buddypress-1-2-6-things-break-but-i-have-a-solution

Initially, I thought it could have been cause by missing lines in .htaccess file, but since you have post images showing up in your subdomain blogs, I would double-check if code needs to be updated in your premium theme. Contact theme author for support.

@roberte you’re welcome. good luck 🙂

@zenzard yup, clear as mud. Never used Page Theme plugin. You might want to contact Page Theme plugin author to get it to work with two BP compatible themes. On the other hand, it looks to me that it’ll be much easier and more future-proof to create Page Template/s instead.

@johnwinch42 No, it is not easily modifiable if you’ve not written a plugin, but if you have PHP experience, give it a shot. And for pure CSS manipulation via body class filters, you as Super Admin would have to add individual member CSS in style.css – that’ll be a lot.
