BuddyPress.org

Try my BuddyPress Extended Settings plugin, to see if it works with your custom setup. I will be adding a way to specify tabs that get added via plugins. Right now plugin only includes core tabs

This weekend I’m adding the ability to change the labels on some of the more popular BP plugins in the BuddyPress Extended Settings plugin

Ok, what’s the purpose of the community side? I’m not seeing a reason to have a connection between sites if main site is just informational

None exist yet. The only option is to us multi site and have each user run a store on their own blog

What’s in the main site? Blog posts?

The only real reason to use multi site is if you want each user to have a blog/site

What you want is easily done with template changes. BP only takes over a site if you allow it.

I’ll think about adding an admin option to block profiles to friends only by default.

Why have a separate install? Is it because you want it to look different? You can style BP pages differently. Multi site opens a spam can if not completely locked down.

It’s true @foxly, you have to have ‘buddypress’ if you want the bp CSS loaded

Is the widget code the same for every user but maybe a different id number to differentiate the widget?

WordPress has a loop for content. BuddyPress has its on loops for members, activity, groups etc.

did you go through the upgrade wizard? If you can get to the admin see if at the top it is asking you to update.

Did you contact the developer of the plugin?

When the stored data is an array you have to process it
$arr = bp_get_profile_field_data( 'field=' );

foreach ($arr as $value) {
echo "Value: $value\n";
}

Rename your plugins folder to force deactivate plugins. Put the folder name back to plugins after you visit your admin. Then activate BuddyPress alone. If it works ok then test each plugin one by one to find the […]

I create a dummy install on same server. mytest.url.com Use a separate database.

You should block this from search bots and put it in a permanent maintainence mode so no one can see it. I then add all the […]

Changing your outgoing email address might fix

The only thing that would break is links in old activity as those are hard coded into the databases

Oh, the functions code has nothing to do with actually creating a sidebar in your theme. You would have to add HTML and CSS. The function code is for WordPress to know where to place widgets.
