@mishathegoat

as DJPaul points, you do not need bp-themes directory inside wp-content ,It will cause problems.

Please move buddypress/bp-themes/ (bp-sn-parent and bp-default) to wp-content/themes and then go to SiteAdmin->Themes ,allow it from the main site and activate bp=-default using appearance->Themes

and remember to delete the wp-content/bp-tehems directory.

@fritzthecat As per Andy Peatling’s comment above, this appears to be a bug with the current version of WPMU, not BuddyPress.

http://testbp.org/wp-signup.php is what is meant to happen.

mishathegoat you appear to be using the old BP theme directory. What version of BuddyPress are you installing and with which theme?

i’m not too sure what that means and how it can be fixed?

This is a problem with sitewide activated plugins upgrade.

Please check David’s reply here for a fix.

Hope it helps.

Good to know that people are finally starting to make quality themes.

Some things that I noticed.

– See this. Make the backgrounds transparent.

– Define a width for your input, my inputs always become bigger and stick out their container. Probably got something to do with Win7.

– Blog pages still have a meta box.

– Login link in the navigation doesn’t do anything.

Haven’t found anything other than that.

Here’s a fix for redirecting your users from the old wpmu signup/activation to the new buddypress signup/acitvation page.

http://mirlo.cl/how-to/fix-for-signup-and-activation-pages/

It is a known problem. Hopefully, it will be corrected soon.

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/httpcodexbuddypressorg-is-dead

I’m interested in this fix as well, but don’t quite understand how to put together bp_get_loggedin_user_link() and is_user_logged_in() to make a link to the members profile page.

I’m using the sidebar login widget and when you click profile on the sidebar once logged in, it goes to the WP profile page on the backend, not the buddypress profile.

Is there a way to use your above method to patch this somehow? I figured this was how it was supposed to be but I did something wrong? Thanks

I posted this elsewhere but it now belongs as part of this discussion: When using Buddypress, should /wp-signup.php result in an blank page or the registration form (or redirect to /register)? If the issue described here exists, how do you get the proper default buddypress behavior?

see: http://ttacconnect.org/wp-signup.php

I could delete /wp-signup to remove the errors but I’d like to understand how bp and wpmu is designed to work (are there any consequences for deleting wp-signup.php?).

I know BuddyPress is using /register.php and not /wp-signup.php. But when /wp-signup.php is hit (typically by spam bots) a PHP Warning is generated. No white space outside of php closing tags in header.php. I’m not too concerned about that as I figure if it’s working as it should (no registration form), then the php warning will take care of itself (and not be generated). So what needs to change to get /wp-signup.php to result in a blank page?

PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at xxxx/bp-sn-parent/header.php:3) in xxxx/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 865

See no Warning and no Registration Form (blank page). Is this the proper default buddypress/wpmu behavior?

http://nourishnetwork.com/wp-signup.php

Here /wp-signup.php was deleted and results in a page not found:

http://memomu.com/wp-signup.php

wpmu 2.8.6 with active plugins on main bp site:

bp 1.1.3, bp-groupblog, auto group join, Group Forum Subscripton, bad behavior

Sounds promising Erich73…

I am more than happy with it not being ‘stable’ until late January/early February. I can deal with revisions and such in the meantime

think about this (as per message from Andy):

So far the BuddyPress default theme updates have taken the CSS down from 2800 (!) lines to 800. JS from 1400 to 600.

I have tinymce with fairly minimal options enabled on a current site but it’s very very hacky code. I’m planning on turning it into a plugin (along with some filters to sort out the raw html problem) but if something else becomes available before I get round to doing it, the lazy part of me is more than happy :p

If there’s going to be a dev version of it available to work on soon then it would be pretty pointless to start work on a theme based on the old “bp-classic” theme. I have no problems with Andy not putting it into trunk this weekend (though of course I wouldn’t complain if he did) but in regards to creating plugins/themes/etc, I’d far prefer to work on the basis of what will be the future of BuddyPress rather than the past.

It really depends on the improvements being rolled in, really. I can’t really say until I look at the code.

Not for buddypress, no. But there is an old plugin that did something like this in the backend of MU. look for xiando’s social networking pack.

I can never get the cool designs in my head to work out on the screen. So I’m setting out to bp other themes.

If five years is your goal – buddypress have be stable enough and have enough plugins to do all that.. but if you are concerned about wasting the last three months with BP, then I would have to side with you on the time wasting part.. I have spent a good chunk of time trying to use BP hoping to do the things it was supposed to do by dec 2008, a year later we still don’t have the basic functionality that was touted here.. The last post I read about photo albums was that it is no longer even on the drawing board (or something like that)..

You could save a few years of time by using boonex’s dolphin, or phpfox.. even some of the cheap tube scripts available today have all of the functionality that I believe you are looking for, right now.
