BuddyPress.org

For regular multisite advice, you’re best to post on the WordPress.org multisite forums for expert advice. As far as BuddyPress goes, I’d worry about getting WordPress sorted first, and then seeing what state BuddyPress is in.

Decided to get rid of the forums and just rely on the comments boxes in the user group activity stream

Thanks everyone for the lively discussion – happy that I’m not the only one suffering with this issue but feel sorry for all of us! I’ve eliminated one problem – I was getting a duplication of a group every time I set up a new one – I wasn’t running the latest php version for BuddyPress requirements on my dedicated server. This issue is now resolved.

However, I am still having problems with forum creation. The bb-config.php file is in the correct place in the root directory and all settings are also OK. This is a real mystery – I was hoping that the new BuddyPress version uploaded this week would solve the problem – no.

Yes, the issue was caused by a plugin… tiny mce! I disabled it and now it works.

Except that the central group forums doesn’t work anymore… instead of it I can see only a wp blank page: http://community.lavocedelladea.it/forums
the bp settings are all ok!

I’ve been searching for the answer to this for a while now.

Finally found this:

You’ll need to change a couple of lines of code in your header – but honestly if I can do it anyone can!

Hope it helps

cheers

You can search via Google as in “BuddyPress.org yourKeywords”

What theme are you using? If you change to bp-default theme and clear cache, is the issue corrected?

Is this issue happening in all members’ profile edit pages or only those who have space/s in their usernames?

anyone found a solution to this having same issue of users being considered blog owner in buddypress multisite setup. admin bar says my sites
mainsite.com
actuallsite.com -> user registered

Mainsite does not belong to user how i get rid of link on bar and profile as it does this for all users.

@DianaNemorensis you must have fixed this already. I see the whole page and all pages look normal in your site.

== All links on the site work EXCEPT post links. Any post in the forum does not work and produces a 404 error. ==

Which forum – the group forums or the sitewide forums?

Hello!!
After updating to wp 3.3 and buddypress 1.5.2 my website looks this way: http://community.lavocedelladea.it/
olny the header is visible… ((
what can I do?
Thanx!

All, can we start this again for my clarity. This is what I do to get started playing with Buddypress.

1) Create under WP themes a folder e.g. bbexample

2) Go to WP plugins find, buddypress folder, bp_themes folder and then select the bp_default folder

3) Select and copy ALL the contents in the bp_default folder. The Codex talks about certain things but I copy everything, so I can play with the PHP files in some of the subfolders.

4) Go back to bbexample theme folder under WP content (which is currently empty)

5) Paste everything you copied in 3)

6) Now you have a populated theme with lots of stuff in the folder. Yeah baby !

7) First open the style.css in bbexample

Replace ALL the contents with the following:

/*
Theme Name: bbexample
Theme URI: http://blahblah
Description: My theme for BuddyPress.
Version: 1.0
Author: PJ Bollocks
Author URI: http://blahblah.org/
Template: bp-default
Tags: buddypress, two-column, grey, dark
*/

/***
* The following imported file is my personal copy of the bp_default style sheet and is located in my theme area
*/
@import url( _inc/css/default.css );

/**
* Any other additional CSS style information can be placed below:
**/

Save the style.css

9) Open the functions.php file to load up your theme styles and essentially kick out the bp_default theme.

10) Replace the contents inside the php delimeters with the following as stated by previous BB players:

if ( !function_exists( ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles’ ) ) :
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles() {
// Bump this when changes are made to bust cache
$version = ‘20111102’;
// Register main stylesheet
wp_register_style( ‘bbexample’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(), $version );
// Enqueue main stylesheet
wp_enqueue_style( ‘bbexample’ );
}
add_action( ‘wp_print_styles’, ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles’ );
endif;

11) Now you have a fully functional BuddyPress compatible theme (based on bb_default), but this is now yours to edit and play with as you see fit.

12) Load the theme and check it out. It looks and performs identical to bp-default and it should since it is your copy.

13) To Edit the CSS then you open the file under bbexample/_inc/default.css

14) You can “Modify” the Theme layout, adding widgets etc, changing the page layouts and modifying some of the PHP display contents by finding the right file under bbexample folders.

Warning: disclaimer: I am a hack and Luv it

BuddyPress.org is not representative of BuddyPress. Check out http://testbp.org/ if you want to test the latest version.

Hi @boonebgorges , is the theme you use at http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/ one you made or was it made by WooThemes? Thanks!

Does anyone have any ideas?
