BuddyPress.org

@jacoby – I experienced similar cookie issues with brain broken and the trunk – got it working by deleting cookiepath and hash and deleting existing cookies- https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cookie-integration-problem-wp28-bb-10-rc-2 but since this is about lighttpd I’m sure that hempworth’s problem is the lack of mod_rewrite and this may help – https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/1961

Usually the current stable is probably best? I tried for a few hours to integrate bbPress 1.0 trunk last night and something appeared broken in it (could be my brain that’s broken too.)

The issues you describe are pretty strange, and new ones compared to most. When re-installing, do me a favor and delete your cookies for your site also; lets make this as clean of an installation as possible.

I was able to navigate to /register and the rest of the BuddyPress links just fine. Looks like you got this figured out?

mikem1986, you will want to modify the header.php in your bbPress themes directory to get rid of the logo, and the header.php file in your wp-content/themes/bphome directory if you are using the included BuddyPress Home Theme.

I created plugin that gives users option to choose which profile data they want to share. It is not exactly what you are looking for, but maybe it can help someone.

@honewatson, I’m glad that you have things up and running to that point. I was trying to determine if you and hempsworth have any configuration or host properties in common. What I was looking for is:

Web server

PHP version

Subdirectory or subdomain for wpmu

Any updates on this plugin? I got the feeling that it was undergoing final testing? Thanks!

I’ve just reinstalled Mu 2.7.1 and Buddypress 1.01 again and this time I can select the bpmember theme from within Mu Admin under Buddypress settings. However, I cannot post from any buddypress field. Every buddypress post action seems to be undefined as wp_explain_nonce is being called.

I can still perform any post action with WordPress Mu.

Regarding installing bbPress, you will probably need to create a page in your primary blog with the slug of “forums” before WordPress will allow access to it.

If you’re new to BuddyPress then chances are you haven’t been down this road before, but I’d advise you to check out some of the stickies and FAQ’s here and spend some time getting educated on all the subtle nuances.

This question has been answered quite a few times, so I’ll give you a hint and if you still can’t figure it out, come back and we’ll see what we can do.

HINT: Check the functions.php included in wp-content/themes/bphome/ and compare it to the functions.php in the theme you're trying to use.

What is your install configuration like honewatson?

I had a related problem which I resolved temporarily by renaming the ‘bpmember’ directory in wp-content/bp-themes to ‘default’:

bump…

Googling around because I’m having the same issue. Only I’m running bpmember that comes packaged with buddypress and making basic css modifications. On the directories, the links and functionality of the bars don’t appear, but the divs do.

Did this get fixed? If so, how do I implement the fix?

Well this is what I get in the list:

WordPress Classic (1.5)

WordPress mu Default (1.6)

WordPress mu Homepage (1.6)

Are you sure that you’re looking in the proper spot? The theme list you provided is what you see when you go to “Site admin > Themes”. These are the themes from which you can choose your home theme.

To choose your member theme, you need to go to the BuddyPress menu grouping all the way down at the bottom of the menu column. So, as Burt indicated, you would go to “BuddyPress > General Settings > Select theme to use for BuddyPress generated pages”.

You choose the member theme from the combo box. With a default BP install you should only see two theme choices: BuddyPress Default Member Theme (1.0.1)–this is the one you want–and, Skeleton BuddyPress Member Theme (1.2).

Are you saying that instead of those two themes showing up in the “BuddyPress > General Settings” menu area that you have the home themes you’ve listed above?

I moved bp-themes into /wp-content/ as directed but still got the error message.

Under the “Select theme to use for BuddyPress generated pages:” in general settings the option for using the ‘bpmember’ theme was not appearing. I could only select the default wordpress mu themes. I selected the ‘Default’ theme and then renamed the ‘bpmember’ folder to ‘default’ to get this working.

Eg:

..wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/

Renamed it to this folder:

..wp-content/bp-themes/default/

Thanks a lot Jeff and John James!

I went with alpha in the end because I don’t think my ftp was deleting all the files
