Did you move the new theme files that come with BuddyPress into their proper location? Look in the /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/ and make sure that there is not a /bp-themes/ directory.
I just tried the whole upgrade process again and have no issue with this widget.
@dinhluong-
This is really not a support issue but a feature request. I would suggest filing a new enhancement request ticket in trac. You log in with the same credentials as you use on this site.
I’m changing this thread to “not a support question”.
OK – just the ones related to BuddyPress. Gotcha. In this case, however – I put the cart before the horse and could not longer even access the site to deactivate the bppicture-album plugin! So I just moved it out of the plugin area to another folder on the site – and I’m back in business.
Thank you so much for your prompt replies – of course – we had told some folks to go into the new site and test it – 30 minutes later the site was GONE (LOL!).
Thanks!
Hey Guys checkout my site http://postnonstop.com
Before automatic upgrading you need to deactivate your other plugins that rely on buddypress. It isn’t necessary to delete them.
Whew Windhamdavid.
OK. I just removed it – and now the site is back up and running. You just saved my bacon!
As a result of removing it – I do see now BuddyPress isn’t installed whatsoever. Looks like a complete manual re-install (anyone agree on this?).
That’s it? Just DELETE it? That seems simple enough.
What should I anticipate then? Forgive me – somewhat of a Buddypress newbie…
Hi Jeff, I did not notice that this was marked as resolved. I still don’t know how to create a buddypress install with a cohesive theme for members. I’ve been checking every week or so to see if someone may have answered my questions about what it is I’d need to hard code. I’ll check to see which theme I modified and I’ll see if that makes a difference. I’m still looking to distill a procedure out of this that I can follow and share with others. Best, Dainis
Thank you very much for responding. I really appreciate it.
I am using Buddypress 1.01 width Wpmu 2.7.1 and managed to get the adminbar working great without even touching Buddypress core.
All i actually did was to make sure I had :
require_once('../wp-blog-header.php');
in my bb-config.php-file, and after that i just simply added r-a-y’s code to my bb-theme functions.php file. :
function recreate_bb_admin_bar() {
echo '<div id="wp-admin-bar"><ul class="main-nav">';
bp_adminbar_logo();
bp_adminbar_login_menu();
bp_adminbar_account_menu();
bp_adminbar_blogs_menu();
bp_adminbar_notifications_menu();
bp_adminbar_authors_menu();
bp_adminbar_random_menu();
echo '</div>';
}
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'recreate_bb_admin_bar', 8 );
add_action( 'admin_footer', 'recreate_bb_admin_bar' );
add_action( 'wp_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );
Works just perfect. I can’t really see any need for a plugin to do this, but I guess there’s always someone who don’t manage without them. 
This would be a great addition to my BuddyPress installation. It would really help me build membership up.
Cannot redeclare bp_activity_install just tried upgrading got same error. Removed plugin and ftpd 1.01 went to activate same error. I Cannot get buddypress to work now on one of my sites…
Beware befor upgrading…..
Doug-
I can’t speak to the reason why the CSS was implemented this way, but it may have something to do with the fact that bphome is a default theme which can be replaced with any WordPress theme with a few tweaks here and there. So it follows the standard WP theming protocol.
The bpmember theme, on the other hand, is unique to the BuddyPress world. As I’m sure you know, you cannot take a standard WP theme and tweak it into a custom BP member theme. Andy created the CSS coding protocols from scratch for BuddyPress member themes. Andy can speak to this more directly–and correct me if my assumptions are wrong!
I could see a lot of value in pulling all of the color values & branding (logo) out of base.css and into branding.css
I like this idea a lot!
Still seeing the warnings in my logs following the 1.0.2 update:
PHP Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /var/www/vhosts/blogs/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-signup.php on line 261

gwsa, you don’t have access to the wp themes? Site Admin > Themes > Activate some on that list. Then Appearance > Themes > All those you activated should be available for selection.
dawnsinger, the universal blog theme is the theme that lives in /wp-content/themes/default. All blog themes are wordpress themes.

Andy — I’m probably just missing it in the documentation somewhere, but my user-created blogs are showing up as default WordPress themes. How/where do I set a universal member BLOG theme?
Thanks,
J
Go to My Blogs (Admin Dashboard) >> BuddyPress (bottom left column) >> Profile Field Setup >> Add New Field (or Group)

This should really be in the readme, forums are a huge part of social networking, and I will be developing a tightly integrated BuddyPress and bbPress application over the next few months. I’m sure you will see a lot of questions from me, and I look forward to helping out along the way.
irc… another thing I’ve never gotten into…… sorry for being so slow in adapting.
It seems my plugin is now listed correctly on the WP plugins AND I can upload changes to the trunk with Tortoise! Yay for technology!
One last question regarding the plugin repository. I see some folks have an image (avatar) for their plug-in both in BuddyPress plugins list and WordPress’…. how do I go about adding one?
I was wondering when you were gonna get around to this. You should join us on the bp irc channel. Help others and get help. Bring your sense of humor.

Hi Milan,
Thanks for the code. Where would I paste this code to allow me to show the 5 topics on my default buddypress home theme (guessing I would have to create a widget?)
