Topic: Minor @mention admin flaw.
@r-a-y, or any other, I noticed there is a slight flaw in buddypress, for future versions.
When the admin account is created for buddypress, the @mention is “@admin“. Well @admin does not mention the administrator, because the username of the admin account is different than “@admin” when creating wordpress, so when any user is mentioning admin, it is different than what it says on the profile.
Example, says “@admin” on profile, but actual @admin mention does not work unless it is @gunju2221, the account username I have for wordpress.
@gunju2221 3 stars for the BP Ajax-Chat Plugin which is different from the BP Chat plugin. It can get confusing with the similar names
“I recently used the plugin Enable Multi-Site to configure WordPress Multi-Site for my Buddypress install. “
Seriously – this is not recommended. I always recommend people set it up manually. the plugin only does 2 or 3 things for you – not the whole business and it doesn’t do any server checks that need a human eye.
‘If I try to navigate back to the main URL, I get nothing but a blank screen. Strange….”
No, not strange – it’s a common error called a white screen of death.
It means you have some php messed up somewhere.Can you get in to admin? Go in there, disable plugins. 90% chance something in there does not work with multisite.
Any news on this problem ? I’m having the same with WP 3.0.3 and BP 1.2.6

Topic: Buddypress / Multisite issue
I recently used the plugin Enable Multi-Site to configure WordPress Multi-Site for my Buddypress install. The installation seemed to go ok, and I configured it to use sub-directories as my hosting service does not support wildcard subdomains. After the install, the ‘Blogs’ menu shows up and I am able to set the configurations so that users can register and create blogs. However, when a new blog is created either by a user or admin, the main site does not display. After the new blog is created, you cannot navigate back to the home page until I go into wp-admin and delete that site. Is there anything I need to be paying attention to on the server in order to fix this? Thoughts, ideas?
Hi all. My apologies if this is in the wrong forum. Nothing else seemed to fit.
I work for a company that is developing a website for a client. Part of our client’s requirements is to have some social networking features. We have been considering leveraging BuddyPress for this. However, there is some concern about the GPL license.
I am not a lawyer, but the GPL seems to state that derivative works based on BuddyPress must also be open source and GPL licensed. So, then I have to ask – is the rest of the website a “derivative work”? Does that mean that all of the code for this project would have to be GPL licensed and made available for free because we use BuddyPress for social networking?
To give a clear example – imagine creating a music collaboration website. It would need social networking features, but it would have some very specific custom code needed to facilitate collaboration. Would that collaboration code legally have to be GPL’ed if the site used BuddyPress for social networking?
Thanks in advance for any advice on this!
