Reply To: Buddypress on multisite
@mattfl850 – this info will help with that journey:

I am sure this is possible, it’s not the way I would do it… might also want to consider some of the info here: http://halfelf.org/2011/dont-use-wordpress-multisite/ (updated may 2015 😉
Others may agree or disagree, and you may be keeping your server tuned like a well oiled machine – hidden from the SE spiders and brute force attackers and all that.
Of course I am not an expert, or a bp dev or anything – just another user who has tried a few different setups and spent many hours trying to do what it “possible” and should be “simple” – and pulled my hair out trying to make things like that work well :))
Not sure if anything is changed in recent updates, but I will mention that when I did this kind of conversion; I had to install the role scoper plugin (now called press permit) – in order to hide people’s private pics they uploaded – as they were visible in the media gallery for other bp users on my sites who had signed up for a “blog” (not called “site” in multi-site) – that was a painful thing to find out the hard way – maybe things have changed with that and other issues – not sure.
Have fun with that and let me know how it works out for ya!
