Arghh… your server hates me! Way too slow!

This will work… in your bp-themes/bpmember/style.css, add this:

#header {height:112px;}

Adjust the height to your liking… don’t ask me why I have to define the height… it’s what works the quickest at this time without me going into your CSS and debugging!

So you never had the chance to activate the plugin?

I would recommend removing the deep integration code and seeing if you can access your forums first.

Make sure your bbPress forums are in working order, then add the deep integration code, then activate the plugin.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

So what happens when you go to your bbPress forums?

The last thing you got to do is reactivate the BuddyBar plugin in bbPress!

Did you do that?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Which one is the bad header? The home theme or the member theme?

Looks simple enough… the container holding the bad header needs a background CSS attribute. That’s what my guess would be.

I can’t do anything from here without a link though!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Yes you need deep integration for the BuddyBar bbPress plugin.

Make sure you follow the instructions in the readme.txt.

Also for the forum look… unless you’re using the default BuddyPress look + Manoj’s bbPress theme (http://manojkumar.org/buddypress-theme-for-bbpress/), you’ll have to basically create a new theme that matches your WP/BuddyPress theme.

There’s no really good way around it I’m afraid.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Sorry you should use the official bb-config.php instructions that JJJ left, except replace:

include_once( '/the/absolute/path/to/your/wp-blog-header.php' );

for

include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wp-blog-header.php');

—

One question though, where do you have WPMU installed? in the root?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Did you follow TheEasyButton’s instructions of disabling and re-enabling Discussion Forum in the “Test” group?

ht*p://example.com/groups/YOURGROUP/YOURUSERNAME/group-settings

Uncheck “Enable discussion forum” and “Save Changes”.

Then re-check “Enable discussion forum” and “Save Changes” again.

—

Also remove the oci-bp-sayhello.php file.

Hey matthijsv,

You shouldn’t have to mess with wp-blog-header.php.

Unless you made changes to it.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Hey matthijsv,

What happens when you switch out in bb-config.php:

include_once( '/the/absolute/path/to/your/wp-blog-header.php' );

for

require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wp-blog-header.php');

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Hey matthijsv,

What line are you adding to bb-config.php?

You should only add this to line 2:

require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wp-blog-header.php');

Let us know what happens.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Quick note: this currently doesn’t rehook the javascript, but it will. Just need to sleep now. Haha!

Since JJJ is in dreamland, for those that do want the javascript hook (even though I plan on not adding it for my own usage! Sorry IE6 users! ), here’s the extra code:

Add this after line 29 of bp-buddybar.php:

add_action( 'bb_head', 'bp_core_add_js' );

add_action( 'bb_admin_head', 'bp_core_add_js');

It should work, but somebody test it with IE6 and report back.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Man already? :p

Thanks for the update, John.

[EDIT]

Just updated! Relatively painless!

Thanks to _cK_ over at bbPress for posting a link to the changed file set only.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Hey John,

Thanks for the co-credit!

You might want to add deep integration instructions in the readme.txt.

Other than that, let’s see more BuddyPress sites out in the open!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

First things first, do you have WPMU 2.71 running correctly before you try and install BuddyPress?

Secondly, try manually installing BuddyPress by downloading the .ZIP file from the WordPress plugins repository (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress/).

Do not trust the automatic installer! Put the entire contents of the folder in /wp-content/plugins/ and then login to the WPMU admin area’s plugins page and activate.

Let us know what happens.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

You’re not giving us any specifics.

How are you installing BuddyPress into WPMU?

What is your process?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Definitely not a theme problem…

Something is up with the do_action( ‘template_notices’ ) in /blogs/create.php.

Just tested this on my dev server and it works there… so as long as it works there, I’m not as concerned with my testbox! hehe

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

I’ve noticed that too… but I’m glad you mentioned it!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Yay… it only seems to be me!

Going to be great to debug!

I guess I should mention that I’m using a customized version of the bpskeletonmember theme.

I’m going to cross-reference my theme with the official BP member theme and see if it could be a theme issue… although I don’t think it would be a theme issue.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

I think you’ve banged your head against the table too much, and that’s why you’ve been off your game, TheEasyButton!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Thanks for replying, Boone.

I’ll see what I can do.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Nice job, Boone!

There’s probably going to be a few people interested in this!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Are you sure you’ve cross-checked your BP home header.php with your BP member header.php?

With the exception of a couple of customizations and function calls, they should be almost identical.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Yay!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

Hey Chris,

Have you tried just installing BP 1.0.2, bbPress 1.0 and WPMU?

Instead of starting from BP 1.0 and then upgrading?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 17 years, 3 months ago]

I’m running on localhost.localdomain and I don’t get that weird COOKIE_DOMAIN localhost IP when I go to the bbPress Integration settings in WPMU.
