Done.

Mark this topic as closed please!
Actually, yes! I created a small little plugin to force member login to see member profiles. I was going to put it on groups as well, but my members wanted groups that are public to be just that, public. There is already an option to make a group private anyways.

Der… This might not pertain to you anyhow, as I forgot that it also involves the forum last poster bbPress plugin.
Diving deeper…
Looks like this is only happening on the Groups forums Burt. The hidden forum appears to get the correct last poster info no problem.
Still diving…
Yep, Nevermind! Not your problem!
I just registered and uploaded an avatar just fine.
I do get this error when trying to view my own profile though…

Hey Burt… Something strange is happening… Could be I broke something, but I noticed it after I upgraded to .41 of your community blogs plug-in. It probably existed before hand, but I just noticed it now so it’s something to stay cognoscente of.
When looking at the front page of my forums, there are two (three for me) forum sections, public, group, and hidden. The most recent posts in my groups forums area link to the most recent posts in the public forums in the same position. Basically in the same order, but in the wrong forum. I think you’ll have to look at it to see what I mean.
Looks like maybe the $topics needs a separate loop or needs to be cleared? I haven’t dived into it yet, but I plan to shortly.
just read about Your Member – I don’t think it will work for our needs. Authorize.net AIM payment integration is essential and it seems Your Member is PayPal only.
Thanks for the reply – I’d love to hear more. Are you selling the plugin? Is “Your Member” comparable to “amember”? I’ve already purchased the pro version of amember – so it would need to be pretty inciting to switch at this point, but I’m certainly open to it.
Martin, how’s the Swedish Translation coming along for you? I’m personally at 29% (Just started today)..
Just to add to the historical record: I installed BuddyPress on a working WPMU install and got a blank screen of death. It turned out that the problem had to do with the 16M limit in the php.ini file. Upping that limit solved the problem.
Solved this problem with help from a friend, who did some PHP error reporting. It turns out that my PHP install has a 16M limit. Upping that limit on php.ini has given me a working version of BuddyPress. All right!!!
So, we are finally resolved.
You can always request it to Incsub as well (WPMU Experts) that are also designing plugins now for Buddypress if people request them!

i wrote a plugin to integrate Your Member in buddypress
Usually/ sometimes/ possibly IE problems are caused by uncleared floats.
try adding something like:
<br clear=”all” />
I’m also trying to integrate ecommerce capabilities into Buddy Press – but for a completely different reason.
We are setting up a campaign website on the MU platform to use the strength of WP’s CMS for the blog, new, media parts of the site – and then utilize MU and BuddyPress to allow campaigners / supports a place to communicate and interact. (similar to Barak’s “my.BarakObama.com”)
We want to allow supports to donate to the campaign and track there donations on their member pages. I’m looking into a 3rd Party Member management platform called “amember” (www.amember.com) as it has a wordpress integration plugin and offers the ability to sell “subscription” products. It is only tested with the standard version of WP – not MU, so I’m running into some database issues where the wp_1_ prefix is throwing me for a loop. (I’m not the best PHP programmer)
Any thoughts on using these two platforms together? Is there a better solution?
I noticed that the very last part of the code block $current_site->domain is only redirect user to yoursite.domain/buddypress/user/yoursite.domain/
I think I need to add $current_site->domain.’something here’ But what should I insert in .’something here’? I want to insert like member’s profile page, so how do I do that?
For now I revert that very code back to an older version code which used http://pastie.org/398599 .
There are a couple of solutions.
One is to just use the bp group forums as is. mikepratt has a nice example of this at http://buglenotes.com.
johnjamesjacoby has the bbGroups plugin working over at http://delsolownersclub.com/discussions
fishbowl81 has taken a different approach with http://gorgeousgamers.com/beta/forums/ with the discussion starting about this in https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1321
Being a fan of wpmudev and buddypress this is a great news that you guys are now getting into the game.
For the plugins I was thinking about the photo/media gallery.
I know it’s on the bp road map but maybe if you guys could make the built-in wp media library and bp talk together that would be really great.
The extension of the “Upgrades” plugin as miguael mentioned or even the “Supporter” plugin could also be a good idea.
Burt, I think I’m picking up what you’re putting down, and I plan on integrating much of what you’re mentioning. Trying to bring MU and bbPress underneath the BuddyPress umbrella a little more really, to open up some of the core abilities and release them to the integrated apps.
I wish I understood the ixr more, because I think the purpose of it is to not have to deeply integrate the components, but rather build bridge plugins to turn on only the functions we would need, much like you did with the bbGroups.
hempsworth, to be honest, this sounds more like a forum functionality than a blog to me. WordPress has never really had this type of straight forward user based permissions functionality, and while I can say that I think it sure could use it, I will also admit publically that I’m probably not the guy for the job. I think ideas like this should be added as feature requests to the trac, because they’re outside of the current 1.0 scope of BuddyPress, and would also involve some changes to WordPressMU.
Burt, I will take a gander. Also, you think possible to add an option to make the members of the group all editors? Could sort of have a blog/wiki that way. 
The sort of functionality I was looking for was the following:
An admin of a group can go to the group settings page and select ‘Create Group Blog’, which would take them to a blog creation page.
They could set the name of the blog, they could set the privacy level (to appear in Google searches or not), and they could choose from the members of that group who would be set as contributor, editor or admin of the new blog, probably through radio buttons next to each group member.
Then, they could click ‘Create’, and the blog would be registered with the group members added and their relevant roles set.
An item in the groups sidebar, under ‘Forum, Wire’ etc, could be ‘Blog’, and would go to the designated blog for that group. We could even output their posts *within* the BuddyPress theme, either pulling from the RSS feed or directly from the DB, and have a ‘Visit the blog here’ link above the most recent posts.
Is this at all possible? I think it’s a much more user-friendly way for groups to set up team blogs.
That’s great news! I’ve always been so thankful for WPMU DEV when building MU based sites, its brilliant your getting excited about BP and helping us out!
Something that’s currently being discussed is a Facebook Connect plugin, I’m sure you will have read the thread already. I pinpointed some key features I’d like to see from such a plugin (http://is.gd/kC9C), and I’m getting some feedback on those ideas at the moment. The community seems willing to chip-in on paying for this, and I’m eager to see it remain open source thereafter.
A real beast of a component would be ‘Live Chat’, much like the IM features seen on Facebook/Bebo at the moment. At least making a start on that and keeping it open source for people to add to would be great?! I can imagine you charging for that, but I’m sure people using BuddyPress at the moment would chip-in to see it built; but I’m guessing you’d want continuous revenue from such a component!
Also, until it becomes core, a dedicated ‘Invite Friends’ component would be great, where you could insert your email address (Gmail, Hotmail etc) and invite all of your friends that way.
So yeah, my 2 cents!
You can always delete the topics through the “bbPress” side, but you can always create and “future enhancement” ticket at https://trac.buddypress.org/timeline for that functionality, even though I am sure it is on the list of things to do at some point.
I did the same concerning the columns, but this is not what brings the ie Problem, its some kind of a problem with margin: 0 auto; in body.
If you open buddypress demo and you have a big screen you will see (on making ie browser smaller) that elements like avatars and some other content are getting weird.
I think this is some kind of a serious bug, which needs to be fixed in next versions.. I was centering/scaling down buddypress (because now it looks much better (; ) and got confronted with this problem.. Maybe a Javascript could fix that..
The home theme is just a theme, you’re free to do anything you want with it.
