nicola has tinyMCE running on his site. I don’t remember if he has that as just a part of the theme or if it’s a plugin. Works great. Check it out at:

It actually doesn’t matter if you do it during installation or after… it turns out to be the same.
Have you seen this article:
http://bavatuesdays.com/integrating-wpmu-buddypress-and-bbpress/
It was extremely helpful with my setup and includes the video you mentioned, with some additional pointers. Also read the comment section for some addtional info.
Just make sure you have the latest versions of both and start off fresh. Follow the article I quoted and give that sigh of relief when you switch from WordPress MU to bbpress and see “Welcome admin!” on top instead of “Login”….
My admin_bar at admin wordpress mu dashboard doesn’t translated, only de admin bar at buddypress area is translated.
Can you post this on trac so I remember to check it?

Where specifically, on which user actions? If it’s links in emails then this is a known issue, it’ll be fixed soon.
@awarner20 your problem with the email friendship requests is a bug. Can’t be solved with a one liner. Sorry. I did submit a workaround patch in trac though:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/519
It eliminates the problem by eliminating the problem. Lemme explain. When a user requests friendship an email is sent out to the destination user. The destination user is supposed to click the link and it automatically approves or rejects the request. Doesn’t work due to the fact that a security mechanism is being used to validate the process. The ‘nonce’ security scheme uses the originating user’s identity and some other stuff to come up with this ‘nonce’ key. The key is only valid when used by the originating user.
When the destination user clicks on the link the key is used but they are not the originating user. So the security check fails. Andy is aware of the problem. I just removed the automatic accept/reject links and used a link to the destination user’s friendship notifications page where it will have to be manually accepted or rejected.
Andy, I’m running the latest default themes from SVN but still having the _wpnonce error.
Josswin: you need to upgrade the themes, or read the second post on this thread – the bit about _wpnonce.
Hi Fishbowl81,
I want to make the bbpress forum to load in my buddypress site from a tab ‘forum’ which is like other tabs like home, blog, members. As you have on your site gorgeousgamers.com.
So that it incorporates the sites design theme and can still navigate through other tabs.
What is the best way around this?
Many thanks,
“Whenever I click on a link to accept a friendship request…” should read:
“Whenever I click on a link IN AN EMAIL to accept a friendship request…”
I’m running the latest version of SVN trunk, using the default home and members themes. Whenever I click on a link to accept a friendship request, I get the “Are you sure you want to do this?” message. Any suggestions? Thank you.
I might add this is also happening on my test installation, too, running the same setup, only in a sub dir.
egerrits are you working too on that?
I’ve almost finished mine

You just need to make sure you reference that directory everyplace you need to within BuddyPress and bbPress to make sure they see each other.
SWEEET SUCCESSSSS!
Okay… For those of that might be using “deep integration” namely using your BuddyPress/MU functions in bbPress, at the time of this writing at the top of your bb-config.php file, put…
if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) & !defined('XMLRPC_REQUEST')) {
include_once( 'absolute/path/to/your/wordpressmu-directory/wp-blog-header.php' );
}
This way, it only tries to include the MU/BP functions if they haven’t already been defined and if it’s NOT a xmlrpc request!
DUH! Yay! Burt, haha you rule…
Found the problem with the 404 page showing up on a redirect with buddypress. It’s not buddypress.
in wp-includes/pluggable.php in the main wp core the function wp_redirect –
if ( $is_IIS ) {
header(“Refresh: 0;url=$location”);
} else {
if ( php_sapi_name() != ‘cgi-fcgi’ )
status_header($status); // This causes problems on IIS and some FastCGI setups
header(“Location: $location”);
}
the $is_IIS is doing a REFRESH: 0; url=location when on windows server 2008 header(“Location: $location”); works fine with the latest fast-cgi module release
SOO basically in wp-includes vars.php making this change:
/**
* Whether the server software is IIS or something else
* @global bool $is_IIS
*/
if (strpos($_SERVER, ‘Microsoft-IIS’)) {
if (strpos($_SERVER, ‘Microsoft-IIS/7.0’)) {
$is_IIS = false;
} else {
$is_IIS = true; // (strpos($_SERVER, ‘Microsoft-IIS’) !== false) ? true : false;
}
} else {
$is_IIS = false;
}
fixed it, by declaring that a microsoft-iis/7.0 server is *not* iis
John, the user you use for group forums just has to have an ‘Administrator’ role or better. Keymaster should work. You should be aware that the password for that user is stored on the wpmu side in plain text in the blog 1 meta data table. Gotta have access to phpmyadmin to get it but..
Your permalinks on the bbpress side don’t have anything to do with it at all. XMLRPC is used and the only query for any type of asset by URL is to the xmlrpc.php file. Permalinks don’t come into play at all. As long as the wpmu side can find your site’s root url and the xmlrpc.php file that is supposed to live there all is well.
Don’t know about the deep integration question.
I followed all the steps and it still wasn’t working. I was doing everything right. I did everything right about 10 times. Still wasn’t working. This thread is me finding out why: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=426
You’re quite welcome. Oh, and welcome to BuddyPress!
egerrits, come on over to this thread and contribute to the discussion there.

thanks appreciate it very much, the users are loving the buddypress i’m very happy that i’m using it
the members, directory and blog -> widget area (sidebar) are all the same where it needs the float cleared at the end of the loop if you could
sorry I forgot this one:
define( ‘NOBLOGREDIRECT’, ‘http://webcomicplanet.com/’ );
I need to use ^^ that in the wp-config.php so that it redirects however if I do that, the 404 error doesnt refresh to the appropriate page when doing a buddypress action so i’m guessing that’s related
this is windows server 2008 so i’m sure there are some problems here and there
Stand corrected…it is a bug, but not a buddypress bug 
Activate the theme per normal for the main website, or main blog of your website. Then, in Site Admin under themes, disable it. At that point it will stay enabled for your 1 blog, and no one else can choose it.
If you edit a blog specifically from the Blog menu in Site Admin, you can still optionally enable the BuddyPress Home theme if you’d like.
Albums should be a core BuddyPress feature. Hopefully we will see this feature soon.
His previous post on same problem https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1256
I can point to other threads about this same issue on the mu forums by Bill. Wouldn’t do much good though it’s the same problem and there was no resolution over there either.
I don’t know how the problem was resolved in the thread above. I was just told by Bill that it was fixed in a PM. I got the impression that Bill had found the problem and it was a *smack forehead* duh! kinda thing. I didn’t pursue it any further. Closed the topic so people wouldn’t think it was an outstanding issue.
Nobody else is having this particular issue and yes it’s been going on for some time now.
