I agree.
the website TBD.com uses a wire as a forum…and it works awesome…Buddypress is right along those lines…now if we could quote others on the wire…BBpress wouldn’t be so much of a necessity 
http://snakkis.no/ a norwegian community site. just added chat (for logged in users)
I use it to test different plugins on the community before I launch another site I’m planning.
Thanks.
It took about two months from start to what it is now.
Only having a few bugs from BuddyPress but it may just be my coding/styling.
So far it’s been good.
It seems the members like to push every button they see so group and friend requests are insane. I took off the group email notifications as it seemed to be getting abused. Might be good to have this as an option to turn off for future releases.
Wow maxaud. That’s a really nice bp skin, integration, overhaul. I do believe you are the largest bp site I’ve seen. Congrats. That took a lot of work.
You can at your peril. There is a secret open source software credit detection routine built into both products. The license doesn’t explicitly say you have to keep it there. However I’ve heard of horrible things happening if you remove it. Open source programmers are very self centered, introverted and vindictive people.

In bbpress, When I Hit the “edit” link would like set the “User Type” of the user to “Administrator”, I get “Sorry, that page was not found” in “buddypress-home” theme.
bbPress: bbpress-1.0-alpha-6
BuddyPress: 1.0b2
Wordpress MU: 2.7
All are releases not SVN
Help…
Launched on Sunday evening.
http://wannanetwork.com – A network for Real Estate Professionals
Still working out a lot of bugs but it’s getting there.
18,000 users, is that the biggest BuddyPress site to date?

After upgraded the main blog of my site in “blog” show “Not found”
I can reach it by recent post.
Any advise?
Hi Scot:
Thank you so much. Which sub-menus should I comment out from Buddypress admin bar?
Also, I have uploaded the plug in “Block Admin”, but can’t find the settings related to this plugin anywhere in the dashboard.
Seems like a tough day today. Thank you so much for your help.

Well, well. Maybe we’re getting somewhere trying to understand why 1and1 doesn’t work well with bp. Thanks for this.
I believe Andy is going to address this issue, but in the meantime I’ve found some success using the “Block Admin” plugin. This allows you to set a redirect URL when someone tries to access wp-admin. You also need to comment out a few of the Buddypress admin bar sub-menus to prevent users from accessing the backend.
Works fine for me but I agree it’s an issue that should be addressed.
Cheers
All we need to do is to direct them to their profile page withing Buddypress site after they log in. Is there a way to modify the email messages that go out during and after activation process?
This problem has burned a hole in my brain for the last 24 hours.
HELP PLEASE!
Worked too, thank you Andy !
That worked. I didn’t change any of the template files in the upgrade…didn’t think I needed too
@stevefdl @chouf: make sure you have the file: member-themes/THEMENAME/groups/admin/group-avatar.php in your member theme.
This can be found in the default member theme, just copy it over.
Thank you! BuddyPress looks to be great from what Ive seen so far. Cant wait to implement it into my sites.
I had the same error.
I tried to change blogs.dir to 777 and the folders within it to 777, but my ftp gave an error.
Then I noticed was that my blogs.dir folder was “owned” by nobody.
So my server peeps changed the ownership of the folders,and I was able to make them 777. Then I noticed that mu/buddypress made a new folder “02” down a few folders.. but then I still got the upload error.
after many more emails my server admins found that:
The issue was that a directory ournewbuddypresssite.com/avatars needed to be created and given permissions of the web server.
hope this helps anyone with similar issues, and perhaps an update may be needed to the install documentation? not sure if it’s just me or my server issues though..
(fresh install with Mu V 2.7 and bpress beta2 I’m pretty sure)
i have exactly the same problem as stevefdl
Just upgrade…one problem…
I cannot change the Avatar of a group I am admin of…I get “Permission Denied.”
I can do everything else in the group as Admin.
i started developing it, but i stopped my work because i read that someone was writing it..

I’m waiting, just exploring. BTW…the beta version you sent me gave me an error on the site. Is there a newer version? Any idea on timelines?
Why don’t you wait for twitme 1.7 to come out !!!

Has anyone tried TwitterDash plugin seen here: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/twitterdash/?
This successfully places your Twitter timeline on the dashboard in wpmu 2.7/buddypress beta2 and enables you to post updates to Twitter from a post form. Could this not be modified to appear in the users’ Buddypress profile?
Thx
