that someone was me – https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2893 what I had noted is that sam’s plugins is essentially the same as bp-forums-bbpress-live.php and the only answer (at this point) is to manually construct the bp_forums_get_forum() as you’ve suggested. the problem I was incurring previously was avoiding having to use the forum ID as an argument – when set to null it returns the most recent topics. https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/375

I sometimes think we shouldn’t bundle the Skeleton theme with the BuddyPress .zip. It confuses some people.
Not sure if this is the right place to be posting this question, but anyway…
I am using BP 1.0.1 and bbPress 1.0 alpha 6.
When a WPMU site administrator joins a group in BuddyPress and makes a group forum post in BP, in the bbPress admin area, it shows the user as a regular member, instead of a Key Master (or whatever role you setup in bbPress’s user role map to sync with WordPress).
The only person who seems to be a Key Master is the bbPress user who is integrated with BuddyPress.
Is this the way it is supposed to work currently? Or am I doing something wrong?
Hello,
how can I change the backround of the search & login bar in bpmember at the top of the page with an *.jpg or *.gif ? I have attached a screenshot which shows the colored place which should be placed with the *.jpg or *.gif bg.
Can you help…
Well the code for that in the base.css is:
#search-login-bar {
border-top: 0px solid #f7740a;
background: #fff9df;
padding: 7px 20px;
}
how can this be usable ? How must the code be if the bg is search-bg.gif
the color ‘fff9df must be changed in the search-bg.gif
who can help ?
thx in adv.
best regards
tony

If you are not in a hurry then I would recommend waiting for awhile. At some point, BuddyPress will be configured to function on single-user WordPress. I do not have a timeline for this as it has to do with merger of the WPMU codebase into WP.

Just an update. Have played around with this a bit and sometimes the sitadmin dashboard Users section that allows you to select the preferred name to be displayed publicly works and sometimes it doesn’t.
I’m thinking that this may have something to do with the Buddypress General Settings: Disable Buddypress from WordPress syncing? This is a total mystery to me what that means or is supposed to do. Anyone?
Anyway, the fix that seems to work is a MySql query that anchors from the user id # and then you could structure it to replace the current data in the value field of the wp_bp_xprofile_data table with the data from the user_login field of the wp_users table.
I have no idea how to do create that query but I am sure it is pretty easy.

roseeveltrp, you’re correct!
You need WordPress MU.
BuddyPress only works with MU at this moment in time.
Some day down the road BuddyPress will support regular WordPress, but not now.
Here’s a good guide for transitioning from WordPress standard to MU:
http://welcome.totheinter.net/2008/10/04/how-to-migrate-from-wordpress-to-wordpress-mu/
It helped me!
Hi,
I am a little bit confused with how BuddyPress is supposed to work. I have a blog running WordPress.
I wish to add a social networking layer, like BuddyPress promises, but its asking for WordPress MU.
So, if I am not mistaking I have to upgrade my WordPress Site to WordPress MU, and then setup BuddyPress?
Is there any specific guide or an article that can assist me in making the move?
I am not interested in subhosting blogs, just add a social networking layer to my current blog.
what version of jQuery we can expect to see in the next BuddyPress update?
Well, based on the new features of WP 2.8, which WPMU will merge into its codebase, I’m going to guess jQuery 1.3.2. Perhaps Andy has a different idea.
Just to add I have had a smilar no cropping issue (leaving black thumbs) and isolated the issue down to the WP Carousel plugin which iteslf resolved a previous issue I was having with an old jQuery image gallery!
I am now stuck between a rock and a hard place- have the nice image gallery rotating on the home page OR have the cropping fucntions working correctly wihtin BuddyPress 
Weirdest issue with this jquery compatabilty theory is that I actually modified the WP Carousel plugin so it didn’t pull in it’s own jquery.js file so there SHOULD be no conflicts.
Will get in touch with the plugin authors but can I ask Jeff or anyone else what version of jQuery we can expect to see in the next BuddyPress update?
If I know this I can at least give the plugin developers a little more idea as to what I would like in an ideal world (after 1.2.6) but I can see some late nights getting friendly with jQuery ahead zzzz
I spoke to apeatling about this on IRC a week or two ago, and he said it was something he was aware of. You could make a ticket on the Trac just in case it is forgotten – use the same username and password for there as you do here.
I have to do something similar. Not looking forward to it…
I’ve found this plugin:
User Import for BuddyPress (All Fields)
To export member data from another WordPress installation you could use this:
Users to CSV WordPress plugin
Haven’t gotten to testing this yet, so let me know if it works…
You do not need to start another thread about this – you’ve posted in one other. I’m going to close this thread so we keep the discussion in one place.
Hi slavd
Thanks for the post. This bug was fixed in the SVN trunk a while ago, so I’m going to mark this post as resolved. Thank you very much for taking the time to post here!

I’ve been running a ning network and wordpress blog in parallel. Slightly integrated by way off rss feeds, but nowhere near enough. Likely to jump onto buddypress at some point.
I am looking to create a membership site using WPMU + Buddypress. The site is almost done but I need to create a membership component. Meaning, I want my clients to pay for the membership and then they get access. I have found a plugin for WordPress called memberwing (http://www.memberwing.com/). I am wondering if anyone has tried it.
I just need a push in the right direction.
Hello friends,
I am trying to create a buddypress social network using the latest buddypress version.
There is a small issue in User->Groups->My Groups.
1. The user cant see groups created by other users
2. When there is no groups created by this user he gets this error message:
********************************************************************
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_group_avatar_thumb() in C:\xampp\htdocs\buddypress\wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-groups\bp-groups-templatetags.php on line 309
*********************************************************************
I do not know if this is the right fix but I went to the file mentioned in the error and changed the function from get_group_avatar_thumb() to bp_get_group_avatar_thumb(). For now this is working for me.
If this is not the exact fix I will apreaciate some more information.
Anyway I think that it will be good to fix this in the next version.
Slav
PS: No matter of the small problems (which is normal for such a big project) I am amazed of the work you have done! Thank you!
I’m using the default Buddypress-Theme and there are 2 Avatar-Sizes (150px and 50px) – That great but I’d like to avoid that users can upload smaller Pics.
I’ve looked at the code in bp-core-avatars.php:
function bp_core_check_avatar_dimensions($file) {
$size = getimagesize($file);
...
This function is not used – But I tried to add a if-clause using this function but then every picture – how big or small it may be – gets refused.
Any Ideas how to resolve this?
I can confirm this problem – I created a ticket here: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/799 – It looks like the unlink code don’t check wether the Images are Identical.

Jeff,
Thank you for taking the time to try and help us! This may seem off topic but every person on this board should take a moment to say “Thank You!” to Burt and Jeff and Andy, and the countless others who work to help solve problems.
This is a shout out to each and all; could you check your db’s using phpadmin or whatever you use to examine your wordpress/buddypress database and tell me what ‘user_status’ setting you see for the admin, typically ID#1?
Thanks,
Brian
Burt & Mike –
Thanks for the prompt reply. Tried upgrading both manually and with the built-in plugin install function. Also tried clearing out the BP tables from the database (the site has not launched yet) hoping that would kick things into shape.
2.7.1 was the first and only version of WPMU installed, upgraded BP from 1.0 to 1.0.1 and that’s when the themes died. Also, no hyphens in the themes’ directories.
Went through the code and was able to see what you were talking about in terms of setting the theme_root variable to /bp-themes/, but any idea why it would be doing so outside of member pages?
If the plugin is active, if I go to /wpmu-themes.php or /wpmu-blogs.php? in the WPMU backend, to activate themes all I see are the BP themes. Correct me if I’m wrong, but before it would also show me themes in the /themes/ directory as well. Is this an intended function? I’d prefer not to move my non BP themes into the bp-themes/ as disabling BP would then kill the site.
Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all
I am wanting to create a custom version of the following core function and have added my custom version into my bp-custom.php file and it works fine but rather than simply cut or comment out the standard BuddyPress function within bp-core.php is there some way of overwiting individual functions as I want to be able to leave bp-core.php as untouched as possible?
bp_core_action_search_site
Thanks
