Don’t be surprised if your log file is what’s taken up your space. Look through the folders and tell us what files are taking up the space and maybe we can help you more.
I’m installing on my computer (MacBook Pro with MacOS 10.6). Did a fresh install of WordPress 3.01 into a subdirectory (san) of my web document root (/Library/WebServer/Documents). WordPress works fine (http://localhost/san gets me to it, etc). Can’t do an auto install of BuddyPress because my computer is not “on the web”. So I download the zip of BuddyPress 1.2.6, and move the unzipped BuddyPress folder to the wp-content/plugins directory. Then go to dashboard:plugins, and activate BuddyPress. Boom! Many many errors such as:
“Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in /Library/WebServer/Documents/san/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php on line 85”
Okay, my 6 minutes are up. This is not so easy.
FYI, I went to a hosted site I admin and did an auto-install of BuddyPress – that worked just fine. So what’s the secret info I’m missing re my local install?
Or I guess, could I strip out the header and footer in the BuddyPress template and create a Page Template in my main WordPress site that pulls the BuddyPress template parts into it???
Thanks guys!
So I’m new to this BuddyPress.
My straight forward question is: I have a fully functional site built using WordPress at http://www.saa.edu
If I want to incorporate this BuddyPress, will that change how my site works? I see it has it’s own head – doctype, meta, footer, etc… But let’s say I want to make a Page template in my Existing wordpress site, and pull in the layout of BuddyPress.
Should I install a second installation of wordpress and mirror my website design to look seamless or could I do it all within one existing installation just like any other normal pluggin?
When I activate it.. Obviously it loads all of this below the footer of my current site.
Searching for understanding???
Hi there,
Thanks for viewing this topic.
So I have recently installed BuddyPress with WordPress.
The idea is to create a website that is a cross between CNN and Facebook.
To have users become both the journalists and the viewers.
However, at the moment I’m facing a lot, a lot of inconsistencies.
For example: Should I allow users to even get into the WordPress posting dashboard?
I’d like to make it so users can post on the forums with a good WYSIWYG editor – that they can add images, videos etc. like a normal forum. Then, other users can rate the posts up or down – so that the home page can show which posts have the most views, which posts are highest rated, and so on. However, this has been difficult to do…
So I’d like to ask whether there are plugins… or perhaps any assistance on how one can accomplish that?
I would greatly appreciate any help given here.
Thanks.
ive ran into this problem before on a previous site and ending up having to use a rewrite.script because zeus doesnt use .htaccess
the question now is what rewrite do i use to get buddypress to understand my pathinfo?? this gets better by the minute!
I am having problem with a post in group page, if i tried to write any status in group then it give me ” error in feedback buddypress group” and page with url “www.domain.com/buddypress/groups//” but if i refresed that page then it will update the page, so is there anyone help me to find the solution.
Thanks @lph2005 that makes me look ever the meanie

@hnla – 
@clarki and @somethingforkaty – these are not BP issues but permalinks in WP. Go to your admin panel and set the permalinks. See step 3 here: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/setting-up-a-new-installation/
Here is the information on “pretty” permalinks: https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks
Watch the .htaccess after permalinks set in /wp-admin

@ekine
Couln’t recreate the error, Ekine. Just created an event on the test site and it worked as it should.
@bowromir
Cheers, mate! Development cycle will slow down now a bit, though. I’ll spend more time now on my Jobboard plugin, to get that hopefully released within 2-3 weeks. Also, the mapping plugin will take up more time. Next major release of Buddyvents will probably be early December.
@imjscn –
Edit: with the latest version of BP (1.2.6), the blog posts on the subblog now can appear on the activity, even though BP multiblog mode is active.
Im having exactly the same problem. ive installed wordpress and wordpress multisite on two different machines and installed and uninstalled buddypress numerous times trying to solve this problem. ive scoured the internet and a lot of people are havin the same problem but theres not a single solution???
I recently updated buddypress to 1.2.6 version and I noticed that the Birthday xprofile field I was using is showing incorrect date.
For Eg: In edit profile I save date of 29 Sep 1980 then in profile view it shows 28 Sep 1980. Day is offset 1 backwards!!
Is this know bug, any workaround to resolve this.
Thanks!

@web_art
I didn’t really understand your question? The type of map can be set in the backend, if you mean that.
sorry….buddypress version 1.2.6 installed on the main site i’m using the edublogs theme on the main site and buddypress theme on subsite
The pomo files you used were corrupted – po was not unicode compliant so the compiled mo file gives a wrong output.
The solution was to replace these files.
I found them here:
https://i18n.trac.buddypress.org/browser/pl_PL/tags/1.2.6
Just wanted to say +10000000 to @Chouf1 who went above and beyond any level of help to get this fixed.
@hnla : would you kindly give the complete snippet here , as I’m not comfortable with codes 
I think the ‘afaik’ would need to be confirmed wouldn’t it? otherwise we are simply being asked to speculate based on little actual information.
What do you mean by ‘web folder space’ ?
Was this change apparent after an update to 1.2.6 or did it simply happen for no apparent reason.
Logs are always a good place to start looking for answers.
hi
most of the problems are fixed except for 2 things:
1) when hovering a post title the shown link (if clicked on) is: http://www.emailaya.com/blog/http:/www.emailaya.com/blog (doubled url), how can i avoid that?
2) after adding the info to .htaccess file, http://www.emailaya.com/blog works but http://blog.emailaya.com doesn’t. i asked my site admin and he said that the redirection works but it keeps throwing it out until it fails and that i should remove the additions to .htaccess, ofcourse if i will do that, buddypress wont wotk, how can i get out of this magic circle?
thanks

Hey everyone,
I was just curious why my web folder space increased dramatically in size. I’m using WordPress 3.0.1 and Buddypress 1.2.6. The site hasn’t had an increase in traffic or uploads afaik. Any thoughts on why the jump in size occurred?
Thanks,
JP
@hnla @djpaul So sorry yall, I’ve been at a conference that past few days with limited web access and then had an all-day meeting today. I’ll take a spin with it tomorrow. 
I’m a newbie wanting to create a private workspace, but the only file upload options I’ve seen so far – BP Group Documents and Forum Attachments for BuddyPress – store uploaded files in a public location, so that even if the forum is secured by Absolute Privacy or a similar plugin, the attachments are open on the web for all to see.
Is there a way to allow users to upload files in a way that makes them visible only to logged-in users? Or is there a way to make the core components allow file uploads in way that is secured by other plugins? My apologies if I’ve missed something obvious.
Thanks for your help.
