I use the chat function from the WIBIYA TOOLBAR, works great and can have video conferencing too. It worked great (except for lag issues) with our CHAT YOUR FACE OFF EVENT – http://freelancerunplugged.com/blog/chat-your-face-off-review/
I just installed BuddyPress today and encountered this. A did a little digging and found it was using the “nicename” for the url. I went in to the users db via phpmyadmin and changed the nicename to ‘admin’ and now it’s working.
Hi, i’m currently trying to rewrite some stuff.
I’ll hope i’ll be able to make a new release soon; but it would feature members map and API to allow things like friends maps.
More news to come !
You write too much 
Still not sure quite what you want to do.
First of all, you need to install BuddyPress. On first glance at your site, it doesn’t look like you’ve installed it at all.
Second of all, since you’re using a different theme, once you’ve installed BP, you’ll need to use the BP Template Pack plugin so your theme can support BP:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/
Once you’ve done these steps, then we can proceed.
get_blog_option only exists in WPMU.

Try renaming the plugin directory to something else, then head back to /wp-admin/.
You can also head on over to Dave’s support group for his plugin:
http://getpaidfrom.us/groups/buddypress-ajax-chat-support
By the way, I don’t have a WP MU or Single User. Thanks 
Could you please tell me how to delete the plugins installed?
I cannot enter even the admin page. If you are going to click this admin page link
http://gpsnavigation.wizard4u.com/wp-admin/
It would direct you to the ERROR.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_blog_option() in /home/pnvszfcf/public_html/gpsnavigation/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-ajax-chat/bp-chat.php on line 413
This is my big problem. I cannot even see the admin page.
Thanks Dave
Guys, maybe I’m kickin’ a dead horse, but I REALLY think this is a big deal.
which of you buddypress developers wouldn’t want a social badge/icon that linked to your buddypress.org profile that you could put on other sites or even in email signatures? Total street cred.
There is a link right on the front page of your facebook profile to create a badge. LinkedIn, Posterous, Twitter…a big part of their growth has been BECAUSE of badges that give their members an easy way to virally market the sites.
I’m banging my head against the wall wondering why nobody thinks this is important but me.
And, compared to most of the plugins you guys develop, I think this one would be pretty easy!
If no one wants to build it for the community, then I’ll pay someone to do it for me. Any takers?
ok, found and i *believe* fixed the problem. just checked it into trunk – will give it one more go around before tagging 0.1.4
(just a naming conflict due to including some bbpress code – so now just excluding loading the plugin on certain pages
if ( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || bp_is_user_blogs() || bp_is_blog_page() )
As I know, BuddyPress allows to the users create their blog’s when installed with wordpress mu. What I need is what I wrote before. If is there someone interested in this work, tell me.
From the Links directory.
eg. example.com/links/
This is totally totally a nob question, have installed buddy press links but where do my users create links?
Cheers r-a-y!
Looks quite complex as Im very new to this but let’s give it a go!
Thankyou!

Found a plugin called page lists plus that lets you just tick a box to enable opening in a new tab. Thanks so much for the help though! Really appreciate such a quick response.
Is there anyway of changing the default tabs names by the way. I want my group tab to say ‘shares list’ rather than groups.
Any ideas or should I start a new topic?
Thanks again!
Child theme! Child theme! Child theme!
Copy over /bp-themes/bp-default/header.php to your child theme and modify the nav tabs to open in a new window.
What’s a child theme you may ask?

DJPaul,
That’s the basic idea. So, people that have joined a specific group can email out their friends to come and join the same group directly. Essentially it would make the registration process unique to how the person was referred to the BuddyPress install.
Kind of like on Facebook, when a friend invites me to be part of Facebook and I’m not a member, then when I sign up I’m automatically their friend. Of course, in this case I want a BuddyPress “group” to be added automatically. I guess it does also make sense to make the person requesting that I join my friend also.
That’s the backend need.
The front end need is to make the registration page a customized landing page based on who requested that you sign up to participate in the BuddyPress install.
Both challenges, but I think the modification of the sign up process like I’m describing will open up some really interesting doors to innovation with BuddyPress. The key for Facebook’s success is getting people signed up. Modifying the registration page to increase conversions seems like a logical next step to making this happen. Just interested in hearing if other people have done it and where I might start looking to make these changes.
And please answer these — https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support. Having all that information in one post rather than throughout the whole thread would make it easier for others to help.
In WPMU the solution is to deactivate WP-O-Matic from the main blog and create a blog only for the feeds. After creating the new blog go to its back-end > plugins > activate WP-O-Matic and that’s it. The feed posts will appear on the site-wide activity. The conflict seems to exist only in the main blog.
I’m using a WordPress single instalation and the only problem is that in some cases the “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by … and so on” keeps showing but WP-O-Matic is running perfectly. The warnings only show in Buddypress pages, not in the blog.
I’m looking now for a way to hide those warnings. If someone knows how to make warnings not show I really would be very grateful.
ok, found the error…
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare checked() (previously declared in 
\xampplite\htdocs\wpmu\wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-forums\bbpress\bb-admin\includes\functions.bb-admin.php:1261) in \xampplite\htdocs\wpmu\wp-admin\includes\template.php on line 382
i need to grab a beer and dinner – and i’ll get this fixed tonight, sorry about that issue. I never use MU 
OK, sounds like a MU thing. I’ll download and and check it out now
@hachimaki
Instead of modifying all the BP templates, you could try the Registered Users Only 2 plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/registered-users-only-2/
I’ve made a few mods to that plugin to better support BP here:

@nipponmonkey
Use what I suggested above.
Then turn off registration and manually create users. Assign these users a role of contributor or higher.
yeeks! @gregfielding is right. It kills the new blog creation – I just had a user report this 30 minutes ago. @etiviti I need to break for a while but will check back in later and try to figure out if it’s a sub-plugin that’s causing it.
I was able to create a blog successfully, despite it hanging on the “blog creation successful” page. My user was able to create a blog, but it got misconfigured, and attempting to reach the blog caused a misconfiguration error to be thrown. I don’t know that this info necessarily helps troubleshoot but I thought I’d throw that out there.
Did this never get developed? It is a right pain at the moment, I have loads of spam registrations and people posting unsuitable content! Something like a Registration Approval system is very important, spam and abusive posters ruin many a good forum blog etc!
I would have thought something as important as this, would be high on the priority list of available options on buddypress! Or is there something already out there ?
