You can have 1 BuddyPress per WordPress network (a standard multisite gives you one network). You need to enable it sitewide, and set up the configuration from the root blog (the blog with ID = 1).
You do not need to enable multiblog. I wish that setting didn’t exist.
Do you currently use Group Forums or have content in Group Forums that you need to migrate to bbPress?
Ok, I figured it out.
First, I enabled Muliblog https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/bp_enable_multiblog/
Then I found that I needed to run Buddypress setup on each of the sites in the network, and I was able to have it create pages automatically for me.
Note that the Buddypress installation isn’t really separate for each blog, it’s just shared.
Has anyone actually created a plugin for this? I’d really like one.
If you’re going to re-open such an old topic without any new information — what emails that BuddyPress sends do you want to add attachments to? What’s the use case?
@modemlooper thanks for the advice! will try it out.
Roger Coathup, could you point me in the direction of some resources? am i right to say this implementation is different from what modemlooper has suggested, in that you are customising wordpress posts instead of buddypress groups?
To update, I’ve set up a localhost using XMAPP on OS X. Still trying to sort out some issues with the Buddypress install – am getting a “Object not found” 404 error when clicking on links from the home page.
@neekolaus – you can build a directory site with reviews on top of BuddyPress.
http://plazaa.de (built by Poolie) and http://enterprisenation.com (our own work) are good examples built on BuddyPress.
You would use WordPress custom post types to model the studios, with BuddyPress handling the user accounts. The custom posts types can be integrated with BuddyPress based profiles giving you a seamless experience. For ratings / reviews, GD star rating is one of the more complete plugin solutions.
Unfortunately, it’s not something you could tackle with basic web development skills – it would require fairly advanced PHP, WordPress, BuddyPress knowledge. We’ve built a number of bespoke directory type sites, but I don’t know of anyone providing a good ‘off the shelf’ solution (yet!!).
@aphrodite – if you think they are violating / misrepresenting trademarks – you are probably best to contact Automattic directly http://automattic.com/contact/
Hey @shatter_
Thanks for your reply 
I love the snippit feature, but what I and i guess other users mean is if you could share the code used to build mashan.com
I can imagine developers jumping for the notifications up top with the dropdowns and a few other features. Would that be possible to share 
?
Cheers,
Aron
i know that. But in that case he is not allowed to claim official partnership with buddypress.org !
The site is named Buddypress FRANCE and the first page claims this partnership just have a look at bp-fr.net !
Thank you very much @hsaeed.
In the main menu there is an option named Thanks. You can check out all there…
Great work @giannisff
Can you tell what plugins you are using on your site?
BuddyPress only works on one blog, blog id 1. You need to create pages that will show directories for each BP component on that blog. You do not need to create these pages on every blog. BP will register content created on other blogs in your MU install and add posts to the activity stream.
@Deleted User yeah I got that^^^ but unfortunately when I try to start a topic is says page not found. Still trying to create a new topic:(
I increased the memory limit and still the same problem. I am using wootheme’s Canvas theme, a compatible theme. If i switch the theme back to the Buddypress theme, it all works.
@ript247 he means start a new thread here in this forum for your issue instead of using this thread that I started.
That worked perfectly, thanks so much @aces!
@ript247 Please start a new topic for a different issue.
Ah perfect @shawn38! Except how do I get it centered now?
So my question – if I uninstall and reinstall buddypress, will everyone’s profiles/friends/information/posts be lost?
Jessykuh – Try navigating to your WordPress Menu screen to manually add the trailing slash:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Appearance_Menus_Screen
If you’re using the bundled group forums that come with BuddyPress, modify the /groups/single/forum/topic.php template.
If you’re using bbPress 2.0, try asking over at the bbpress.org forums.
