Success! Solution found here.
The Javascript:
<script type = "text/javascript">
function copyinput()
{
var tmp = document.getElementById('blog_title').value;
tmp = tmp.toLowerCase().replace(/^s+|s+$/g, "").replace(/[_|s]+/g, "");
tmp = tmp.replace(/[^a-z0-9-]+/g, "").replace(/[-]+/g, "-").replace(/^-+|-+$/g, "");
document.getElementById('blogname').value = tmp;
}
</script>The customized function:
function custom_signup_show_blog_form( $blogname = '', $blog_title = '', $errors = '' ) {
global $current_site;
?>
<div id="blog-details-fields">
<label for="blog_title">Blog title</label>
<?php if ( $errmsg = $errors->get_error_message('blog_title') ) { ?>
<p class="error"><?php echo $errmsg ?></p>
<?php }
echo '<input name="blog_title" type="text" id="blog_title" value="'.wp_specialchars($blog_title, 1).'" maxlength="24" onkeyup="copyinput()"/></p>';
// Blog name
if ( 'no' == constant( "VHOST" ) )
echo '<label for="blogname">' . __('Blog Name:', 'buddypress') . '</label>';
else
echo '<label for="blogname">' . __('Blog Domain:', 'buddypress') . '</label>';
if ( $errmsg = $errors->get_error_message('blogname') ) { ?>
<p class="error"><?php echo $errmsg ?></p>
<?php }
if ( 'no' == constant( "VHOST" ) ) {
echo '<span class="prefix_address">' . $current_site->domain . $current_site->path . '</span><input name="blogname" type="text" id="blogname" value="'.$blogname.'" maxlength="50" /><br />';
} else {
echo '<input name="blogname" type="text" id="blogname" value="'.$blogname.'" maxlength="50" /><span class="suffix_address">.' . $current_site->domain . $current_site->path . '</span><br />';
}
if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
echo '<p class="help-text">';
print '(<strong>' . __( 'Your address will be ', 'buddypress' );
if( 'no' == constant( "VHOST" ) ) {
print $current_site->domain . $current_site->path . __( 'blogname', 'buddypress' );
} else {
print __( 'domain.', 'buddypress' ) . $current_site->domain . $current_site->path;
}
echo '</strong>. ' . __( 'Must be at least 4 characters, letters and numbers only. It cannot be changed so choose carefully!)', 'buddypress' ) . '</p>';
echo '</p>';

}What this does:
When the user starts typing the blog title – limited to 24 chars – the Javascript dynamically fills in the blogname for the URL.
The user can manually change the blogname if he/she wants. Not sure how that would work out…
You could probably also hide the blogname field, either through type=”hidden” or CSS. Haven’t tested all these options yet.
But imho this looks like a very versatile solution.
Or have I overlooked some critical issues? Comments very much appreciated!
This also does not work…:
function autoblogname() {
$blogname = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9]/i', '', str_replace(' ', '', strtolower(wp_specialchars($blog_title, 1))));
return $blogname;
}
...
echo '<input name="blog_title" type="text" id="blog_title" value="'.wp_specialchars($blog_title, 1).'" maxlength="24" /></p>';
?>
<input name="blogname" type="text" id="blogname" value="<? $blogname = autoblogname(); ?>" />Help!
Latest attempt didn’t work…
Should I do something with
$_POST['blogname']?Any ideas very much appreciated!
BTW, improved cleanup:
$blogname = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9]/i', '', str_replace(' ', '', strtolower(wp_specialchars($blog_title, 1))));Apparently Manoj Kumar’s very essential users import plugin does not work with the latest version:

Hi Manoj,
The plugin is not compatible with WPMU 2.8.3 & Buddypress 1.0.3. Could you please fix it.
This is also the version of the plugin I’ve tried – I gave the wrong link earlier.
In my installation the plugin worked for the essentials – username, email address – but nothing was added to meta in wp_signup and the xprofile fields.
Next I’ll try it in a fresh install of Buddypress 1.0 RC…
I’ve noticed the imported users have also been added to the mailing list via my bp-custom.php function.
So the plugin actually “runs” the regular registration processes, including wpmu_activate_user? Whatever member registration custom code or plugin you have inbetween, this plugin takes it into account?
That is pretty cool.
