David,
“…minimum required to give you the ability to add a new menu item…”
You talking about adding a new menu item to the buddybar ™ 
or to the user/options bar in the member theme?

This may not be possible, but it might be nice to include users of Identi.ca (and Laconica servers) plus Openmicroblogger.org servers in this stream. Both use the OpenMicroBlogging protocol enabling users to post to Twitter and subscribe to friends on each platform.
Openmicroblogger.org in particular is heavily tied to WordPress plugins and themes already.
Cheers
The “my-plugins” folder is actually based off the root of your forum install. If it is /forums/ then you would have /forums/my-plugins/ for the folder.
The real trouble with getting the forums side working is that it makes the assumption that you have WPMU and bbPress installed 100% and integrated properly even before you start trying to get the buddypress side going. Always make sure the logins are integrated and working right before you continue on.
Biegun also has a point as well. Buddypress accesses bbPress through publically accessible xmlrpc.php and if you put .htaccess in there for password protection, it will break as well since it won’t be able to access the installation.
slaFFik I would just suggest that if you reinstall WPMU 2.7, you also restart on bbPress 1.0 alpha 4 from scratch as well and then integrate the installs off the installation of bbPress and just go through all the steps again without having a bit more information.
Hello buddys,
I would just like to say that I am very impressed, not only with BP but also the friendly and helpful people involved.
I have integrated googles Friend-Connect with http://www.blogfred.com perhaps it could confuse some people as there would then be “”2″” communities on my site!!
Umm!
Still very early days for me as I have a busy life elsewhere.
Right.. but that Widget is showing the correct url for all the users. like http://sitename.com/network/members/Joorgeta/
But in one users name is showing like this :
http://sitename.com/network/members/amitasree%20bhattacharya/
Now.. my question is.. If BuddyPress doesn’t support any WordPress MU widgets then why on the home page we see the links “Click to add widgets on this space” ?
Regards
i got most the errors gone but for some reason the searches and letter search still isnt working. i really dont think this is wordpress MU but buddypress thats causing this.
And here, on my Russian BuddyPress Support Site, is the same manual in Russian for the Russian BuddyPress User. Enjoy!
Hmm well i installed it with the trunk version 1581 and now i get error 500 everwhere. worked great untill i put buddypress on, hmm. any ideas for this?
I love Viper’s plugin and run it on my non WPMU installs. Personally though, for my buddypress installation which is really focused on more Social and less blogging, I am happy with the normal BP admin bar. My thoughts are that someone comes up with a plugin to add the “extra” functionality to the BP admin bar, not merging it. Just my 2 cents
maybe check out elgg.org for gpl feed plugins to use?
Awesome stuff @dimensionmedia! So looking forward to your releases on this!
why not adapt wp-lifestream plugin?
I know nothing about Facebook’s API or stream. If someone wants to be kind and gather a list of lean/small PHP classes that already grabs the info (I already have Twitter and Friendfeed) that would be great. Especially for Flickr and/or Twitpics.
keep up the work..maybe facebook stream
I can confirm reCaptcha works flawlessly with a WPMU/BP install
this lifestream output would it be displayed in a separate page on members page like facebook or what?
Update:

Andy suggested that this could be a plugin to drop into the mp-plugins folder, which i managed to do. Now you do NOT have to modify ANY BP core files. Happy days!
If trent send it to me, i will add it on the plugins directory, that i will open tomorrow at http://buddypressdev.org
Good Job, works fine. Thank you.
Congrats on the new community, but for now i only have the time to monitor this particular forum. I imagine BuddyPress resources are going to be popping up in the next few months. You may repost it over there if you wish.
Ok, so basically you just copied the description from Social Network PHP Script. Might have been easier and simpler to say that from the beginning.
Good suggestions overall. Not to sound like a “bummer” person, but i’m sure it will take a while to put something together like this for BuddyPress. Andy is also already working on a photos module which won’t be visible for at least a few months.
I am very new to buddypress, just downloaded it yesterday,
I know nothing about website design and have extra time on my hands, so i thought I’d play with it.
Anyhow, mine is aimed at the World of Warcraft players (all 12 million of them )

Here my BuddyPress Developers’ Community http://buddypressdev.org/
I hope it will be usefull
So, i’ve said it to some people interested on irc. So, i can do this plug-in, but for doing it, i decide to attend next version of buddypress because in that, andy will put photo album feature, so doing a video feature, will be easier..
I will update users about my and other plugin via this site http://buddypressdev.org/
