== I want members to be able to create new blog sites on their accounts. ==
@oraclesoftruth And BuddyPress provides a form in the front end so that your users can create new blogs … if you have a multisite installation and you enabled blog creation.
== I configured it to activate on Blog “2? and not my Primary Network Blog, etc. ==
Just to be clear, did you add
`define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, $blog_id );
`
where $blog_id is the Blog ID number of the secondary site. For example `define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 3);` in bp-custom.php per https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/changing-internal-configuration-settings/

@rogercoathup So is there a way to pass both arguments through parameter scope to display your own and friends activity?
Example: scope=friends & just-me
If not then is there any hack I can do anywhere to get this functionality into the activity stream output. Thanks!
@orpatech thanks for the solution. What exactly do we do with the MySQL code? where do I input it?
Thnks!
Yes, see my response to your other topic.
@queenieb I test every install with bp-default theme before activating other plugins or adding new theme. I was going to check out the issues in your site but the username/pw you gave above is invalid
@shawn38 thanx!! Well i can see it good in internet explorer and opera aswell
I have tested just about every “Premium” BP theme (including the one in your link) and I can tell you there is only one responsive (or otherwise) theme I would ever use…
http://testbp.org/
PS
Have not tested Frisco, but it looks promising.
Now that I’ve been able to “successfully activate” BP on a sub site (thank you @djpaul) this is my next hurdle. There is no BP toolbar in the WP dashboard. I have a multisite installation running on WP 3.4.1 with BP 1.6. (Yes, I’m a newbie when it comes to most code, WP and BP.) If it matters at all, I’m on OS X 10.7.4 using Safari 6.0.
I hope any solution you provide can help both @nlmdep and myself.
Happy to help you out if @modemlooper is busy 
You can get in touch with me on Twitter at: @pollyplummer or via my website: http://untame.net. Can get it done for you tonight if you need it ASAP.
We’ve put together a nice list of responsive BuddyPress themes here http://wpmu.org/10-responsive-buddypress-themes/
Just as a sanity check have you tried the default theme for BuddyPress? I understand if changing themes isn’t possible on your live site though.
Fixed it just a formatting problem from when you posted the code. Thanks a bunch
@r-a-y OK that didn’t quite work for me but this did:
`function enable_nav_item () {
global $bp;
if ( $bp->groups->current_group->id == MY_GROUP_ID )
return true;
else
return false;
}`
I’m not sure why this worked – I got the idea from this old thread. It would be good to know why if someone can explain it to me.
The way I see it, in order to complete this I now need to create individual versions of the complete code for each group where I require these custom tabs. I am sure there’s vastly more elegant ways of doing this but with my meagre PHP knowledge this is the best I can muster for now!

@rogercoathup Awesome, thanks for the quick response. I will give it a try and post my results. Thank you!
Yes, have a look at custom activity loops here: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/
Then in your theme templates you can use any WP functions to check the current user’s role, and call your custom loop accordingly.
A component will create a directory much like members or activity. url.com/recipes
On a users page it will have a tab recipes that list a users added content. The activity stream in my opinion should not be edited. It’s a listing of all site activity not individual content. That should be added via a component.
The BuddyPress skeleton component is an example plugin to learn the complexity of creating what you desire
This question has nothing to do with BuddyPress.
Please ask on the RocketTheme, or a basic CSS / HTML forum. Or simply search ‘IE conditionals’ in Google
For translations – you need to work with language files (I assume welcome pack supports these @djpaul).
See this for further information: https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/
You can also try the ‘codestlying localization’ plugin.

@karmatosed @ somosguatemala I can see it in firefox and in chrome just fine. Looks great somosguatemala!
It’s a different solution for a social network. Other options are great but I warn that the developer could drop support after you’ve built a site. BuddyPress will continue to be developed plus there is a growing BP theme & plugin community.
Test it out. I’m curious to hear what people say about the other options.
@djpaul I appreciate that. It is immensely frustrating not to be able to recreate it.
thank you for your answer. I’ve tried to change those files and it didn’t work.
See this link where buddypress works together with my theme:
http://mejl.cvenk.net/profil/forums/
And now see this other link on my theme where buddypress isn’t fitting well:
http://mejl.cvenk.net/profil/members/josip/
I fixed files like activity,members,groups and forums but I couldn’t fix files that are inside members folder like members/profile and so on.
Could you help me please, once again…
thnx:)
Thanks Paul,
the followers plugin is ok, but is not what I was looking for.
Are you still looking to implement more types of relationship into BuddyPress?
Would there be some workaround until then? Using some kind of metadata that can be stores with each connection I make? Anyway, I quite likely will not get to this until the October time…
