BuddyPress.org

When you say a new BuddyPress install, do you mean a complete fresh new install of BuddyPress, allowing a separate database and user tables for each sub domain? If so, that’s a little outside the scope of what this forum provides.

You might want to try talking to some server admins and see about maybe having a VPS setup, or some kind of reseller account?

@Patriotsandheroes: Welcome to the official BuddyPress 404 club

In order to enter, your page has to be broken

Well, I should say I was trying to apply this technique to the Wire to allow img tags. No dice though. Any help would be great

Unfiltered MU did not work for me. I will try what you originally suggested, Burt

Woot WOOT!

OR, in the words of Bubb Rubb and Lil’ Sis: “Whoo whoo!”.

Hey Steve,

You certainly can PM Andy if you’d like. Also log into #buddypress on IRC, freenode as he pops his head in there quite frequently.

We’ve already got a thread somewhere talking about this, so I’m going to close this to avoid splitting the discussion.

Same problem – spinning icon when I try to add a friend.

PHP Version=5.2.9. Just installed BuddyPress and MU for first time today (May 3, so I think I have BuddyPress 1.0). Hosting at HostNine.com with typical CPanel.

Website with issue: http://3wcloud.com/wordpressmu. I have turned on the ability to add new users if you want to see what is happening.

Thanks,

Neal Walters

Hey! Thanks for all the work your putting in with the user feedback from all of these threads! Great to see a developer that stays in touch! Now I’ll admit so far I haven’t tried this theme out yet, other then clicking a few links from your buddydress page and checking out the few links that are actually working, and I’ve noticed most of them are not rendering properly under IE. Not that I recommend IE to anyone, however it’s still used and I wasn’t sure if it was just people trying to play with the theme’s (I see ad’s added to most of them) so I’m not sure if it’s due to other’s bad code of if is truely not rendering properly.

Either way thanks again! This is good stuff your doing and I look forward to the first free theme on buddydress!!!

Hey, I translated BuddyPress yesterday!

You can find my translation here: https://codex.buddypress.org/translations/greek-ellinika-el_gr/

I hope you like it, because I was exhausted after the hours I spent working on it.

P.S. Ki egw Ellhnas eimai.

Everything worked fine for me:

– news users are automatically added to the forum

– creating groups also creates a forum topic (not sure if I want that)

but the problem is, it doesn’t integrates the bbpress in the buddypress-theme. The forum is in its own theme (Kakumei).

Shouldn’t it integrate with buddypress?

Thanks,

Eddie

Hello Andrea_r

I just installed BuddyPress v 1.0 2 days ago to a new WordPress MU install. Got it running fine except for the member blog theme thing where members have the default WordPress MU theme. I followed your instructions above and copied the bphome theme, changed the theme name, changed the style.css file header name from home to blogs and deleated the home.php file. I moved this new theme to /wp-content/themes folder and activated the theme. But when I go to a members dashboard and click on the theme to activate it, it comes up blank in the preview window.

Any ideas what went wrong?

Thanks Mark

That happened to me up to RC-2; I had to rename the buddypress-member directory as buddypress-home (and kept it in bp-themes) and it worked perfectly.

It appears that this has been fixed in 1.0, which I am testing right now.

You could have a look at this -> https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk/bp-forums/installation-readme.txt

I’ve done a fresh intall,yesterday,WPMU-Buddypress…and clicked on the “memebers” link and found this problem”404″ also.I wanted to join this post to wait for a solution.

The home theme controls the front page, and any blog pages in the root blog. It’s essentially just a blog theme with a front page that is emtpy, ready for widgets. Everything else is controlled by the BuddyPress member theme.

tangent: the house behind us is straw bale.

(By “behind” I mean a good 300 yards away down the field on the edge of the lake)

@Sgrunt: I’m not completely convinced my problem is an exclusive Buddypress problem either ; since I’ve tried to upgrade the site and no slugs worked anymore.

The basic WordPress MU blogs -DO- work perfect though, after database migration; Buddypress seems to be giving a lot more problems with all of them 404 errors..

With exception the normal WordPress MU functions which seem to continue working..

you can use the custom.css file to add custom css to the buddypress widgets, look what tags the widget uses then copy the corresponding code into your custom file and modify it to suit your needs

Does any of these instructions change for the newly released BuddyPress 1.0?

I got around to installing buddypress and it looks great but was bummed to realize that the forums don’t work right of the bat. Are there any updated (simpler) instructions now that ver 1.0 is out?

The WordPress MU language file should be in /wp-includes/languages/ and you can change the language in your admin section of your wpmu install.

The BuddyPress language file (buddypress-xx_XX.mo) should be in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bb-languages/ the xx_XX should be the same as on the file in /wp-includes/languages/ since BP gets the language setting from WPMU…

You don\’t have to edit anything in your wp-config.php file!

All of this is for WordPress MU 2.7.1 and BuddyPress 1.0. I don’t know how it is with older versions…

HTH

update: Tried too with BuddyPress v1.0 with the same results… 404 errors on the social slugs…

Anyone around knowing a good tool to export/import the database of WordPress MU/Buddypress so I’d not need to do all this manually? I know I’ll be making errors because there are minimally 10 blogs to move.
