BuddyPress.org

Which version of BuddyPress are you running? As of trunk r1599 (which is just over 2 months ago), the functions bp_core_add_nav_default() and bp_core_add_subnav_item were deprecated, replaced by bp_core_new_nav_item() and bp_core_new_subnav_item().

Have you set up bbPress in wp-admin > BuddyPress > Forums setup? Did you download and put bbPress in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/ ?

Aye, depends on what shape bag you’re looking to use:)

Or with BuddyPress1.1, inherit them from a parent theme, and CSS your way out of that bag.

With BuddyPress1.1, you can also recreate a custom registration page to include only the fields you specifically want them to have on sign-up, put it in your child theme, and let it do the dirty work.

I installed 1.1 and was greeted with this:

Fatal error: Class ‘WP_Widget’ not found in D:www/myaxelis/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php on line 14

the next time I tried to load my WPMu/buddypress page. Where did I go wrong.

As DJPaul, said, you should talk to your web host whenever you are having server issues. This WordPress codex article may help, if it does not, talking with your web host is the next option.

Yes. But any wordpress theme used on a buddypress site will have to include extra files that come with the BP theme. I.e copy them.

@John James Jacoby – is it ready what you described here 3 months ago?

I am searching for solution to make buddypress multilingual, but only in interface: theme and admin area should has multi language texts. ost dont have to be translated.

Just something like is at wordpress.com: user register and choose language. Then he see all interface in local language, write in any language he want.

Hi !

Seems to have good new functionnalities !

I have one problem though :

I use a fresh install (WPMU 2.8.4 + BuddyPress 1.1 Beta); no plugins;

I moved /bp-default and /bp-sn-parent to /themes;

and I get

Not Found

The requested URL …./wordpress-mu/blog was not found on this server.

Then I did copy my old .htaccess file to the fresh WPMU installation; and now I have

Page Not Found

The page you were looking for was not found.

What is the problem ?

For Buddypress 1.1 will there be a skeleton parent theme, or am I stuck with using the default parent theme and modifying that, then I might as well just create a child theme?

I have downloaded the bleeding edge 1.1 from trac and updated mysite. I am busy with a custom theme for my site and I would like to start with a skeleton theme. However I don’t mind hacking the default one if thats best. I am a bit new to developing WPMU themes although I have done themes for Joomla and hacked a couple of normal WP themes.

Thanks but these need tickets made on https://trac.buddypress.org/.

You need to talk to your web host and ask them.

1. Which version of WPMU are you running?

.wpmu 2.8.4

2. Did you install WPMU as a directory or subdomain install?

installed as directory

3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory?

its a root directory

4. Did you upgraded from a previous version of WPMU? If so, from which version?

fresh installation from scratch

5. Was WPMU functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress?

yes it is

6. Which version of BuddyPress (BP) are you running?

version 1.0.3

7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version?

its a fresh installation

8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated?

members only plugin

9. Are you using the standard BuddyPress themes or customized themes?

its the standard theme

10. Have you modified the core files in any way?

have never touched the core files

11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php?

nope

12. If running bbPress, which version?

hvnt install bbpress

13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files.

there isnt any

https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/tags/1.1-beta/bp-forums/bb-config.php

If you are not providing users direct access to your bbPress forums, then you can delete your bbPress files, if you are then leave them alone. You do not need the buddypress-enable.php file anymore.

I can’t speak for plugins, but if the forums in question are attached to private groups then they will not show up. They will remain hidden in the new directory when accessed through BuddyPress.

If you are not running a highly customized bbPress install, definitely consider using the new forums directory instead of a separate bbPress setup. The integration is seamless and requires no messing with cookies, integration settings/plugins.

Waclaw-

Are you aware of the Open Stack? Integration of the Open Stack is on the BuddyPress roadmap for sometime around version 1.4. It will do what you are proposing and more. If you want a real challenge, you can start working on integrating the Open Stack into BP!

@aero7

The first steps are to distill your install down to the lowest common denominator. That means disabling all plugins except BuddyPress and switching to the default theme framework that comes with BP. If the problem goes away, then it has something to do with your theme and/or plugins.

If that is the case, they the next step is to reactivating each plugin one at a time until the issue returns. If it does not return, then switch to your custom theme. If it returns, then there is an issue with your custom theme.

This was well discussed three days ago. Since this thread has not seen any action for a month until just now, I’m closing it as it is too out of date.
