BuddyPress.org

TO resolve this all you should have to do is create a copy of your index.php file, rename it home.php, and upload it to your theme folder and it should work.

I had the same issue when upgrading last night. I think BuddyPress requires there to be a home.php file and once you do what I outlined above everything should be normal.

Hi just one question:

BuddyPress is a PLUGIN not a standalone application, is it?!

That means I can set up a WordPress-Blog and LATER add the BuddyPress-Function?!

Just asking because I have an idea for a great blog, and I am thinking about wether to wait for the official BuddyPress release or to already start my blog, and later add buddypress.

yes @ apeatling . Some problem with the trunk version ?

Hi sfinder,

I was just looking into this myself and came up with a quick hack.

Go to:

bp-blogs-widgets.php

line: 50

Change:

<div class="item-content"><?php echo bp_create_excerpt($post->post_content) ?></div>

To:

<div class="item-content"><?php echo $post->post_content ?></div>

This will will show the full post with images, but will not limit the amount of text. You might want to create a function similar to bp_create_excerpt() if you want to limit the amount of text.

Hope this helps.

P.S. I’m new to buddypress and wpmu, so this solution may not be perfect.

I’m sure people will be writing plugins to extend the default Buddypress functionality once it’s released. I think Andy is making sure that it will be easy to write new plugins. It will be just a matter of time…

Andy posted here asking for help with fixing the IE6/7 problems with the Buddypress themes.

TestBP is using the new home theme that is part of the BuddyPress install. The items, account, groups, etc, are all widgets that you can place wherever you need them.

You can turn off blog registration as an option in WPMU. Then it’s as simple as not installing bp-blogs.

http://www.mcas.in: are you using the trunk version of BuddyPress?

my mistake was that i uploaded all files in plugin directory .. i forgot to put the theme in the themes directory.. once you do that, the current theme of buddypress shows up..

regardless, even after that there are bugs like https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=141 and https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=97 which need to be sorted out

Hi, i have the same problem and i really cant figure it out…what do i need to edit?

https://buddypress.org/forums/search.php

I just installed buddypress on MCAs.in from trunk. Its a fresh wpmu and buddypress install and i’m facing the same problem.

When you go to MCAs.in , under members tab if you click on the member it takes you to http://mcas.in/members/annkur/ which is redirected to homepage

It should actually take you to annkur.mcas.in

Whats the solution?

The first version of BuddyPress is for open networks, there won’t be any real privacy settings.

Once we have a 1.0 release, then the plan is to work on a generic privacy component that will introduce privacy levels across an install.

On trac, so create a new ticket that explains the problem and what the patch does to fix, then you can attach the patch file to the ticket:

https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket

Looks like I forgot to update my buddypress-home and buddypress-member themes. It’s all better now.

I am having the same problem. I looked in the code. It seems that the point in the code is on line 174 of bp-xprofile-signup.php:

if ( $checked_upload && $checked_size && $checked_type && !$original = bp_core_handle_avatar_upload($_FILES) ) {

$avatar_error = true;

$avatar_error_msg = __(‘Upload Failed! Your photo dimensions are likely too big.’, ‘buddypress’);

}

but i dont understand what is going wrong.

Can you log this at: https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket

It will read languages files in:

/wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-languages/buddypress-[locale].mo

BuddyPress will always work on the latest stable release of WPMU.

Problem is that changeset 444 will give errors as I reported in this ticket.
