http://www.sportsblognet.com. Tell anyone that likes sports to check it out. Finally up and running after about a month. We may be looking for someone that can code the member theme to match our overall site theme so please respond to this if you are interested.

Go into the Dashboard logged in as the “WPMU admin” into -> Site-Admin => Themes and then disable the theme from there. You can always go to Site-Admin -> Blogs and edit your main blog to enable the them only for the main blog.

several posts with lots of things to try here:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=892

did you search the forums?

The topic https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=843 has been closed and i feel sorry for it, because with my later installation wp MU 2.7 + BP béta 2, i’m still having this error msg :

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/np5397/domains/blogi.ee/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-signup.php on line 104

when creating a new blog

that cause several issues :

– can’t edit the profiles, create a group

– blogs are created but aren’t showing in the recent activity, neither in the blogs tabs or in his owner’s profile

– can’t send a message, invite somebody to be friend, etc

it seems that i have no x-profile tables in my db like burtadsit asks

(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_groups

(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_fields

(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_data

here is the list of the tables in my db ; can’t see it

I have been folowing development since BP was just Andy. I am in the midst of rebuilding our radio network site on BuddyPress. I’m about half way through the process. It’s coming along.

You need a SVN client to do svn co https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk. Then in future you can run svn update to update to the latest “trunk” copy. It’s a bit hard to go further into specifics as I don’t know what Operating System you use, but have a google around if you get stuck.`

Hi.

What error do you get when you try and create the groups?

There’s a sticky that details the BBPress integration (https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=471).

You configure how you want new blogs to be created in the admin tool of WPMU (IIRC).

You could try and create a hidden blog and change the theme for just that to see if you can manage the widgets. Alternatively post a link to the theme you’re using and I’ll give it a spin on my setup.

As for the avatars… Do you have the “blog.dir” folder in your “wp-content” folder?

Looking at the path you’re posting above (/wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php) it seems as if you’ve selected the BuddyPress home theme as the default theme for your member pages and not the actual member theme.

I’m not sure how you’d be able to do that though.

What are the contents in your “member-themes” folder?

I’m running IE (8 even) and that’s not the problem with Laura’s site (nor have I’ve seen it on my own setup).

The registration steps works fine, it’s the end result that is the problem.

Buddypress is not unusable software. I suggest being a bit more polite if you come looking for help, especially to the official Buddypress forums.

It’s because you’re trying to shoehorn a PHP script into your theme. Either one of the PHP variables you use in the snippet in bold is used elsewhere by Buddypress – thus getting weird conflicts – or it’s to do with one of your mysql_ function calls, possibly mysql_select_db().

blogs.dir and some other folders will probably need to be chown’d to the user and group that runs the webserver. Apache2 by default (I think) uses the nobody user account, so I’m assuming that’s what your host uses.

Whilst 777 will let everything access it, from a security perspective, you should really go for 755 permissions and check that the owner/group of the files is the same as that of the webserver.

BTW if you’d have tested uploading an avatar on a plain WordPress MU install, you’d have had exactly the same problem. This isn’t buddypress.

sgrunt: if there is a suspected problem with IE, you should detail a report at https://trac.buddypress.org/ so people can check and confirm and fix it.

i think you should modify both the buddypress home and the member theme: the base.css file or the custom.css file for both themes. Change the body, the left, right, center column width, and the narrow and wide column.

for the avatars: i’ve noticed that there is a problem with internet explorer. It just does not show the button for going to the next step. Try with Mozilla and see if it works

(You don’t need to insert code, just copy and paste the text straight into the post.)

It seems as if I’m not skilled enough to help you further as I have no idea what this could be.

I see that you have a custom theme though. Can you try and revert to the default BuddyPress theme and see if that works?

Ya, the same thing is happening on my site using buddypress. Site wide activity’s RSS is not loading.

Hi again.

I didn’t realize that it was the “sub-blogs” that you we’re talking about when I posted but now I know what you mean.

That kind of functionality is usually handled by widgets but perhaps it’s hard coded into the theme. Are they there no matter what theme you use?

As for the avatars, I’m not sure I’m on the right track to be honest now that I’ve done some digging. The path for your avatars (http://mobiusmanitou.com//avatars/4/alien20-avatar1.jpg) is not even close to the one on my setup (http://komiformguiden.se/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/3/elder_sign_small-avatar1.jpg).

Why those differ I have no real clue to though. Perhaps Trent, Burt or Andy can chime in on that.

Hi Laura.

Are you talking about the so called “widgets” that display information on your site (I can’t see the items you mention when I visit it)? These are responsible for showing, among other things, categories, recent posts, comments, and so on.

You can remove these from the WordPress admin page, under the Appearance section.

As for the problems with the avatars I’m not sure (I created a test account, MartinNr5, feel free to delete it if you wish). There might be a problem with the graphics library on the host that you have your site with so that the images isn’t processed properly.

Can you check with them to see if they support the minimum requirements for WordPress and buddypress?
