BuddyPress.org

Does anyone have any other tools and plugins that they’ve found useful?

Thanks for the response Burt.

I am using WPMU 2.7.1

However the subfolder within bp-themes is bpmember, so no problems there. And when I go to the wpmu BuddyPress backend I cannot select any themes.

See screenshots at

I even tried removing the non BP themes from the BP folder. But it doesn’t make a difference.

Actually i did have some mu-plugins still running, so now everything is out, just buddypress.

With the domain mapping plugin I am using it so that bloggers can use their own domain (ie http://baseballpastandpresent.com) instead of the subdomain way (baseballpastandpresent.sportsblognet.com)

Currently we only have 2 domains which require this plugin, but I’m slated to convert at least 10 more to their own domains within the next week, but I’ve halted that until I get the site running correctly.

This is a subdomain install.

Here’s the phpinfo

@Gpo1 – It’s there now, and it was not easy!

Okay, thank you for helping me, I’ll try to go through your questions one-by-one.

First I’ll let you know what I have:

Slicehost

1GB slice

Ubuntu Hardy LTS 8.04

Running Apache, PHP 5, MySQL 5.0 (followed Pickeled Onion’s walk-throughs on how to set it up, I am by no means an expert, and my very first barebones VPS was this one.)

I help run http://sportsblognet.com where we have WPMU 2.7.1 and BP 1.0, along with bbPress 1.0-alpha6

Have you tried deactivating all non-buddypress plugins, wp-super-cache in particular?

I deactivated all but buddypress, feedwordpress (because our theme will break), wp-super-cache, and doncha’s domain mapping plugin. But maybe I will remove them all for an hour to see if any errors get through

I am removing wp-super-cache right now, but it was tough to get rid of the wp-content/cache folder because it was owned by the root user. But i got it deleted and removed the wp-super-cache stuff in the .htaccess and I’ll guess i’ll have to wait to see how that goes.

Have you tried using the default .htaccess file that ships with WPMU?

I just tried to, but it won’t let me.

My current working .htaccess (minus wp-super-cache stuff)

<FilesMatch ".(ico|pdf|flv|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|js|css|swf)$">

Header set Expires "Thu, 15 Apr 2015 20:00:00 GMT"

it wont let me use the standard one, and the only difference that I can see is the expires header setting that i added.

Are there any PHP errors in your log files?

this is my current concern right now

Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error.

ALERT - canary mismatch on efree() - heap overflow detected

for the ALERT error, I contacted slicehost and they upgraded my kernel, they said that has fixed other people’s problems (fingers crossed – but no errors since they did that this morning) if that doesnt work i have to go through and install php without the suhosin patch.

most of the other errors are of spam scripts trying to signup and not finding wp-signup (i changed the signup name)

what are the other listed errors in your apache log?

That’s pretty much it.

EDIT: it’s about 30 minutes later and an Internal Redirect Error just showed up in my logs with wp-super-cache out, and all but buddypress plugins out. So it doesn’t look like its a plugin.

UPDATE: I just installed it online at http://bp.jason-boyle.com. You can access the forums at http://bp.jason-boyle.com/forums…I haven’t put the button in the navigation yet.

I am still experiencing this problem…however I will not fix it here in case anyone wants to check it out. Just look at the topics I’ve posted in Groups on BuddyPress and the same topics reflected on the BBPress side at http://bp.jason-boyle.com/forums.

If no one responds to this in the next day or so though I’m going to put my crappy fix on it. Let me know if you want to poke around a bit on it, maybe I could set up a temporary FTP for just that folder so you can see my code.

Okay, so it seems your content areas are stripping out my backslashes that I’m trying to show as an example, even with the code tag around them.

The first BBPress example should be:

triple-backslashes for every single-backslashes that shows in my post above

The one after my FIRST fix should show a single backslash before each of these characters ” ‘ and (back-slash character)

DJPaul,

I deleted all of the wp_bp tables. I’m not sure what you meant by check the wp_sitemeta table for similarly-named buddypress settings? Could you give me an example of what you are talking about? Here are the meta_keys for the sitemeta table? Anything I need to do or am I good to go with the reinstall?
