is this working in 1.5?
my users are creating blogs like http://blogname.subdomain.domain.com
i’m using WordPress 3.2.1 with BuddyPress 1.5
define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 14 );
define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );
define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES’, true );
define( ‘BP_SILENCE_THEME_NOTICE’, true );
define ( ‘BP_REGISTER_SLUG’, ‘socailmembership’ );
am i doing something wrong?
This is happening for me too. My cpu and load average is through the roof.
This problem occurred for me on a vanilla install without bp-template-pack. I believe it was because I failed to click on the Finish & Activate button. I’d read the message “The BuddyPress setup is complete, and your site is ready to go!” so I just chose something other than the Finish & Activate button.
If anyone else gets the problem, just go back to the wp-admin page and try again – this time selecting Finish & Activate.
Who can create a group?
I’m looking at the file in /group/index.php
What does this code do? In BuddyPress 1.5:
“
I have this code for only admin and editor can create a group.
“
Something happened I blame a rouge plugin, but now I can’t get any register link to work… Where can I go to fix this? I’ve disabled every plugin (including Buddypress) and it works but as soon as buddypress (1.5 that was upgraded from 1.2 but it was working with 1.5 for some time) is activated it stops… I have a ton of data so I can’t do a fresh install…
Thanks in advance!

BuddyPress has it’s own integrated with WordPress users – you can add profile fields and have other control things. In theory they are the same but with additions.
Yes, if you want to maximise what the site does getting a theme designed from the start for BuddyPress is a good step. But, with the template pack as said you don’t have to do that.
Hi, I have buddypress installed, but i would like to know how to get only the status updates to show as well as comments on post. I don’t want the activity to show new member who has joined or when they have made a friend.
What file do i edit and what lines do i edit to do this, and what must i change please help.
ah i see its starting to make more sense now
i am in the process of converting a large php social site into wordpress and just came across buddypress and it looks like the answer to my problems.
So when a user signs up to my site in wordpress are they signing up through wordpress and then buddypress takes this information and allows more social things to be done with it?
I have to pick a new theme for the site so i guess it wil make sense to pick a wordpress/buddypress theme to make sure i get the most out of it all.
Can you provide a link please to see as this probably is because of your theme and can’t really judge until see what you mean by don’t ‘look like a regular page’?
It opens up social networking and other things besides yes. Where the menu item is though is down to the theme and also up to you if you edit files.
You do not have to change the look of your blog you’d use the template pack to allow your theme to work for BuddyPress. There are some files you’d need in your theme but the template pack solves that.

Hi. The same problem…. @zfrost Could you solve it?
Sometimes the ads appear and sometimes not. I tried most of the plugins for adding google adsense to wordpress, and no ones works fine.
I also tried to put the code in to the right sidebar with html text and nothing…
Any idea?
Say i have a normal wordpress site
it already has a menu – home, about, contact us, etc etc
by installing buddypress am i simply adding the ‘community’ tab onto that menu which will then open up the social networking side for the site
users can create profiles
users can create groups
users can communicate with one another
etc
etc
im just a little confused when i see buddypress themes etc, im right to believe that by installing buddypress i wont have to change my design of my blog right?
I love the new default BP theme’s ability to resize to fit almost any screen, phone, tablet, etc., but it is missing one key quality, dynamic video widths.
Enter FitVids; “A lightweight, easy-to-use jQuery plugin for fluid width video embeds.”
http://fitvidsjs.com/
https://github.com/davatron5000/FitVids.js
http://vimeo.com/28523422
Just add this to your themes header and that’s it:
`
$(document).ready(function(){
// Target your .container, .wrapper, .post, etc.
$(“#content”).fitVids();
});
`
It currently supports: Vimeo,YouTube, Blip.tv, Viddler, Kickstarter
You can add support for any type of embed using the following:
` $(“#thing-with-videos”).fitVids({ customSelector: “iframe[src^’http://mycoolvideosite.com’%5D, iframe[src^=’http://myviiids.com’%5D”});
// Selectors are comma separated, just like CSS`

@modemlooper do you know of a plugin which lets users enter their location and see which users are nearby? Preferably one that works with BuddyPress Mobile?
If so, would it let them know of nearby users based on iPhone or Android gps coords or the city/state they enter to a plugin or field of buddypress? The iPhone app Grindr comes to mind, though it is an app not a wordpress plugin.
Thanks
Thanks Mercime. I’d already tried both of those methods and I’ve continued to try as many different variations as I possibly can and still no luck. I’ve done everything they’ve said. Created .po and .mo files (buddypress-en_US) with the relevant changes and added them to languages in /wp-content/languages/. I’ve also tried adding them to the bp-languages folder. Nothing.
Nothing happens when I add the first method code into my functions.php file.
It’s driving me insane to think that the one thing that has completely stumped me in the website building process has been the changing of two words. If anyone has any other suggestions or any tips as to where I could be going wrong it would be very, very much appreciated.
I sent updated themes to WordPress repo and they should be accepted any day.
@bigbadboy ty for the tip, error is in the default theme, like stated updated all with fresh copy via ftp = still same error
2. isn’t a bug. It was changed to show as many years as possible (Windows’s servers displays less than other platforms).
1., and 3 and 4, sound like they should be bugs. Please can you report them to http://trac.BuddyPress.org? You can use your username and password from this site. Thanks!
I know this isn’t terribly helpful for this situation, but I have just reverted back to 1.2.10 and the memory problems have gone away. For now, I can live without the upgrade. It might not solve the problem @echioMega, but I suppose it is nice to know there is an alternative to needing and infinite amount of memory for now…
Is returning to the old version an option for you?
Somehow I think both themes are active – is this possible?
In the article:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/
Under “let’s start building”.. it says “Check your site home page. You’ll notice that there is no design at all. It’s just text on a white page….”
Well when I got to that step that was not the case the bp-default styles were there. I just checked again. My new child-theme IS activated. The BP default.css is being enqueued as well.
So why are files from two different themes conflicting? IE ajax.php.
I have gone into the bp-default theme and deleted the content of ajax.php which gets rid of the fatal error but still leaves me with none of the ajax on my site is working. I’m pulling my hair out!
@21cdb and @lucianop were u guys able to resize the avatars?
Hi,
1) I have installed Facebook Auto Connect plugin and it works fine.
2) When logged into BP after using Facebook login, I click on My Account in the Sliding Panel.
2) The Facebook Avatar in the Sliding Login Panel is super big, covers some of the text to the right.
Question: How can I make the Facebook Avatar the same size as the normal Buddypress avatar?
OR
How do I move the text in the Sliding admin panel over to the right to account for the size of the Facebook avatar?
Thx,
~P
