Thanks for all the advice ! I will go away and put together a spec of exactly what I need and then look at contacting some developers! I hadn’t really considered that a theme might consist of additional functioanlity as well as just a ‘skin’ over wpmu/bp…

[marc]

Thanks for the info ! Has anyone had experienced of commissioning designs through 99design.com ?

Thanks for your reply David… Apologies I realise Ive been a bit vague ! I will have to put a concise brief together – what kind of requirements would I need to specify ? I am unsure how you would define the complexity of a design – do you mean in terms of whether its just CSS or if theres flash work ? Or perhaps if I supply the branding or someone else does the lot ?

When you talk about custom work or integration – what could these be other than creating the theme files ?

Any more specific pointers or examples you might have would be really useful !!

[marc]

Thanks for your assistance ! Ive done the reinstall as above, WPMU working fine but still get a 500 error upon activation. I noticed upon clearing everything out that there didnt seem to be any BP stuff in the database whatsoever so I suspect its falling over before it creates any tables. The following php is the page that was called:

wp-admin/plugins.php?activate=true&plugin_status=all&paged=1

The log shows only the following error :

[Thu Dec 17 12:23:01 2009] [error] [client 81.105.177.234] Premature end of script headers: plugins.php, referer: http://projoosr.com/wp-admin/plugins.php

Checked DB again and cant see any BP tables I’ll PM you just now….

Okay I’ve resolved the problem with being able to read posts but buddypress still keels over on activation. Even though my wpmu install seems to be working perfectly I can see these errors after install – could these be causing the activation problem ? I’m a bit perplexed as the db seems like it’s built ok….

thanks !!

Any help on his would be really really appreciated !!

[marc]

Okay I tried dialling up the memory but that doesnt seem to have changed things do you have any other ideas ?

[marc]

Thanks for your mega prompt reply ! Yes I can log in fine without BP – I still cant see the hello world post so maybe thats probably a different issue entirely ! Ill try the larger mem now and see what happens – should I up all values to 128mb or just memory limit ?
