I had no option to turn on each buddypress plugins

BuddyPress is now considered a single plugin. Once you\’ve activated it in the Plugins menu, you go to the BuddyPress menu group at the bottom. Click on “Component Setup”, and you can enable and disable each component separately.

where should bp-custom go? the same dir as buddypress after r1303?

That is correct.

I have been using calendar on my regular wordpress site for some time now and I love it.

It seems to be a great candidate for buddypress if the author allows it.

I love how easy it is to customize just about everything in the calendar from the way it looks to how events appear etc.. very simple

If you mean that in wires and group creations it’s not integrated yet, akismet will work anyway against forums & comments spams

btw, where should bp-custom go? the same dir as buddypress after r1303?

May want to read this…

Same goes with WordPress as well.

In response, good job modifying the theme colors. In my opinion the forums could still use some work (margins on the sides need 20px), and the missing BuddyBar at the top urks me.

Also, and this may be a repeat suggestion, but when upgrading, you’re going to want to BACKUP and DELETE the old files, all of them EXCEPT your wp-config.php file. That file you do NOT delete and keep where it belongs.

1. Upload WPMU, visit wp-admin, and make sure it’s running the way it should be.

2. Upload BuddyPress per the install instructions, visit wp-admin, make sure it’s running the way it should be.

3. Reinstall plugins and custom themes.

The reason for the delete is because of all the file locations and names that have changed around since RC1. If you have copies of old files lying around, say in mu-plugins, etc… That will gum things up too.

I’m using the latest, but I had no option to turn on each buddypress plugins. The only option I could use was to activate BuddyPress from plugin administration page.

Just delete

<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_HOME_BLOG_SLUG ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo BP_HOME_BLOG_SLUG ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Blog', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( 'Blog', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>

Sounds to me like a PHP error or a memory error.

make a file called php.ini, put it in your wp-admin directory, and inside that file it put…

memory=40MB

upload_max_filesize=10M;

post_max_size=20M;

This will take care of any memory issues your host may be having…

In the .htaccess file at your root directory of your WordPressMU install, put this somewhere near the top…

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php

This will take care of PHP issues and make sure your host is giving you PHP5.

Try these out and report back.

Photogallery will be included in next version of buddypress so i think you’ll loose your money,

anyway you’ve added your email so, let’s close the topic

I didn’t ask you to determine the relevance of the errors, I asked if you had any. It sound like you have a blank lines or spaces before the opening <?php or after the closing ?> tags. Check all the files you have edited. You can’t have that in a php file.

I’ve got TMDHosting account and I can say that their support is second to none when helping me out.

I rate them high !!!!

I shall stop wasting my time on AWS EC2 from now on…..

There hasn’t been much progress made with this, I’m afraid. I ended up making a “fake” buddybar, loading the buddypress style sheets and (omitting the “My Account” menu) just having “<- Back to <buddypress>” links, and “fake” tabs (again, linking to the buddypress stylesheets) with hard coded tabs linking straight back to the buddypress pages (“Home”, “Groups”, “Members”, “Forums” etc..) Works… but every time you install a custom component, you’d have to add the tab manually.

Kenneth,

Make sure you are putting the MO language file in the right place — it goes in “{your-buddypress-install}/bp-languages”. Also make sure it’s named correctly with “buddypress-” and the WPLANG locale definition (like “fr_FR” for French).

Then make sure you have defined your language in “wp-config.php”.

You can see all the details at Translating WordPress.

That page explains:

Set WPLANG inside of wp-config.php to your chosen language. For example, if you wanted to use French, you would have:

define ('WPLANG', 'fr_FR');

We’re working in the dark here Michael. What is your installation config like? subdomain or subdirectory? Windows, Mac or Linux? Shared or dedicated hosting?

You have the latest mu 2.7.1 branch and the latest bp trunk installed correctly

You have deleted bp completely from /mu-plugins and installed it in /plugins/buddypress

You have your member theme in /wp-content/bp-themes

You have activated sitewide the buddypress plugin

Your wpmu install works perfectly. You can create new blogs and post to them.

You do not have *any* other plugins running at all.

After all the above is ‘yes’ you get a white screen when visting any url in bp or wpmu? You have to be getting errors. Make sure that your php.ini file is configured to report errors and you are looking where it’s reporting.

Is this the same host as the bp install that is working?

Here are the instructions from Burt to test your host/server setup for XML-RPC support.

Follow this link to download the XML-RPC test that Burt created: http://ourcommoninterest.org/downloads/xmlrpc-sayhello.zip

The test consists of two files. The first file is a bbPress plugin that you activate in the bbPress plugins area that acts as a XML-RPC server and responds to a simple “say hello” type call. The second file goes in the root of your MU setup.

This test bypasses all the “bbpress_live/discover_pingback_server_uri()” stuff that might be giving you problems. If this works then the issue is most likely in that area and could be a host/server problem.

To load the test, first install the “oci-bb-sayhello.php” file to your bbPress install root in a folder called “my-plugins” (create the folder if it doesn’t exist). Then log into bbPress and activate the plugin. Next, drop the “oci-bp-sayhello.php” file into the root of our MU install so that you can navigate to it easily. Then load “your-site/oci-bp-sayhello.php” in a browser and see what the output is.

There are several possible points of failure if the test fails to authenticate the BuddyPress user that is created for the connection between BuddyPress and bbPress.

1) The BuddyPress connection username/password isn’t the same as the username/password that exists in bbPress. That username/password is stored in “wp_site_meta”.

2) The bbPress user is not an administrator.
