probably my final update for this:

#buddypress #object-nav ul, #buddypress #subnav ul, #buddypress #groups-directory-form .item-list-tabs ul {display:table;width:100%;table-layout:fixed;font-size:.65em;}
#buddypress #subnav ul {width:98%;font-size:.6em;margin:0 1%;}

Found a few more things to tweak, so here’s an update:

/* buddypress tabs */
#buddypress #object-nav, #buddypress #subnav {outline:0;margin:0;text-align:center;}
#buddypress #object-nav ul, #buddypress #subnav ul {display:table;width:100%;table-layout:fixed;font-size:.7em;}
#buddypress #subnav ul {width:98%;font-size:.6em;margin:0 1%;}
#buddypress #object-nav li, #buddypress #subnav li {display:table-cell;float:none;text-align:center;height:2em;padding-top:.5em;background-color:#ddd;border:1px solid #c6c6c6;border-bottom: 1px solid #999;text-decoration: none;outline:0;margin:0;}
#buddypress #object-nav li a, #buddypress #subnav li a{display:block;text-align:center;word-wrap: break-word;padding:0!important;color:#888;text-shadow: 1px 1px #ccc;outline:0;}
#buddypress #object-nav li a:hover, #buddypress #subnav li a:hover {color:#000;outline:0;text-shadow: 1px 1px #eee;}
#buddypress #object-nav li.current, #buddypress #subnav li.current {border-color:#999;border-bottom-color:transparent;background-color:transparent;}
#buddypress #object-nav li.current a, #buddypress #subnav li.current a {pointer-events:none;cursor:default;color:#222;font-weight:700;}
#buddypress #object-nav li.current a:hover, #buddypress #subnav li.current a:hover {color:#222;font-weight:700;}
#buddypress div#subnav.item-list-tabs {margin:0!important;padding-top:1em;}
#buddypress div.item-list-tabs ul li a span {display: block!important;}
#buddypress select#activity-filter-by {font-size:.8em;}

Note that this doesn’t just change tabs in groups, but in the profile as well. I had some issues ‘fitting’ in some words without making the text too small or resorting to wrapping the word (another CSS rule); so instead I used poedit to change the menu text.

You can read about how to do that here: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

Please share changes/improvements you make.

Yeah I posted at WP forum too, just added here as this topic seemed relevant. I use BP as well, and thought some people might have had similar problems and know how to solve them. I think a lot of MU users are also BP users.

I’ve deleted the site and tried again with the same result. For some reason the tables aren’t being created. Where can I access relevant log files? I’m on a paid host ICDSoft, so I don’t have access to server logs, are there logs made by WP?

I’ve an installation that’s been running fine for some time with four blogs. Today I went to add a new one and the backend indicated that it was successful. I then tried to go to the blog and received this lovely message “Error establishing a database connection”. I tried going to the dashboard for the site and received a message that there might be something wrong with the database and it suggested that I add a line to my config file to allow WP to try and fix the problem. I did so and reloaded the page as suggested and it attempted to repair the DB but failed giving this as the output and telling me to post it in a support forum!!! So here I am:

aaaWpMu_6_posts: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_posts’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_comments: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_comments’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_links: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_links’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_options: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_options’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_postmeta: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_postmeta’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_terms: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_terms’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_term_taxonomy: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_term_taxonomy’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_term_relationships: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_term_relationships’ doesn’t exist
aaaWpMu_6_commentmeta: Table ‘earthsociety_WPMUCore27Oct2010.aaaWpMu_6_commentmeta’ doesn’t exist

Any thoughts? Do I need to rebuild my entire database? What caused this in the first place?
