I can’t understand how the messaging problem happens, everything is sent using usernames, and has nothing to do with profile fields.
In fact, everything in BuddyPress is based on usernames, and those have to be unique. Perhaps you can give more detail on some specific problems?

Hi
I had the same problem with uploading images in a new registration, i solved them out changing the permissions to 777 in wordpress-mu/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/ and turning SAFEMODE OFF.
Now, a new user can registrate and upload a photo. But… the new problem is that the uploaded photo does´nt show, a broken image is shown, in the directory wordpress-mu/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/2/ are the images but doesn’t show on my buddypress.
When i login and delete my avatar, the default avatar is shown. When i retry to upload my photo the error appears again.
Here is my url http://cororegatas.com.ar/wordpress-mu/members
what I might need to do?
My apologies for my pour english.
I`m looking forward to your reply.

What features will the alpha have? First cuts of admin interface, component interface (i.e. example.com/members/DJPaul/achievements) and a few ‘achievements’ built-in.
What features do I want in this plugin down the road? Achievements for pretty much everything you can do with standard WPMU and BuddyPress.
Pipe dream features? An admin interface to let site administrators create and define their own achievements without having to muck with code.
I solved this by creating a bbPress theme that simply made everything invisible (css “display: none;” on everything) and redirected the users to the start page of my community by means of a meta refresh redirect.
Since I am so extremely witty, I called it “Kakumei None”. You can download it here: http://dropbox.jobjorn.se/kakumei-none.zip
I’m not sure if it’s the ‘artists’ mentality that does it or the fact it’s just extremely well done. It has all the normal components of a community/social site but the secret ingredient may be the nature of the content.
It’s a product of the skill and creativity of all those individuals. Using each others ideas and work to create new things. It’s not exactly collaboration but mutual respect and competition. It’s not competition either. It’s joy, participation and showing off.
Whatever it is it just plain works well.
I’ve soft-launched our University community at http://www.wearesau.net. I’m hoping to do a lot more with it visually, but for now I’m just testing and watching it very closely.
@Amhyaut
It seems that you are wanting to change the slug “blog” to something else. Read this article and see if this is what you’re after:

Just came across this post. I really like the fact that colourlovers.com has managed to create a very passionate community. Look at the sponsors post..tons of people commenting that they would like to be a sponsor (for very few benefits IMO)

Hello,
I have installed the “Irresistible” theme and i wonder if could i add the buddypress modules into the theme home page?
Thanks,
Yuval
I am using buddypress 1.0.1 + WPMU 2.7.1 + bbpress 1.0-rc-1
I suppose even if the groups forums are set to private, users can still see the threads posted from bbpress and can post in those threads.
I would like to hide the whole bbpress from the users and still allow users to access the forums through buddypress groups. But at the same time I would also like to use bbpress administration as the forums cannot be managed through buddypress.
yep
Your path seems wrong. From v1.0 mine is:
/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-languages
3 files inside:
buddypress.pot
buddypress-es_ES.mo
buddypress-es_ES.po
Still english at my site.
Can you confirm, Azznonimous, that the only thing you did was;
1. Create folder: “/wp-content/buddypress/bp-languages/”
2. Copy “buddypress-es_ES.po” & “buddypress-es_ES.mo” into the new folder
Nothing else? It just worked for you?
i have buddypress installed, everything is working fine, however, I noticed that when a member creates a blog the post body doesn’t display. every other piece displays fine – the title, author, etc.
on a weird note, I did see the post body for one member’s blogs, but when I went to check anothers, I saw nothing….then when I went back to the one that did work, it wasn’t anymore.
this is the code used to display the posts:
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" style="margin-bottom:20px; border-bottom:1px dotted #666; padding-bottom:12px;">
<h2 style="margin-top:0;"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<small>Posted on: <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?></small>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content(__('(more...)')); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', 'after' => '</p>', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?>
</div>
<div style="margin-top:12px; padding-bottom:4px;">
<div style="float:left;"><small><?php edit_post_link('Edit this entry.', '<div>', '</div>'); ?></small></div>
<div style="float:right;"><small><?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?></small></div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
anyone have any ideas why this could be happening?? please help!!
D’Arcy,
I think this is a Multi-DB issue. I just loaded BuddyPress as well, and I am getting the same nonsense. Damn it!
My Group forums were working fine until I installed the BP update today. Now it won’t let me post from groups at all. Anyone else having this problem and have a fix?
One error message I’m getting is:
group_obj is undefined in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-templatetags.ph

This is truly beyond the scope of the BuddyPress forums. But, since I had some issues when I attemtpted to install WPMU on MAMP several months ago, I feel your pain.
I wrote an article (months ago) for installation of WPMU on MAMP (not MAMP Pro). But, I’m not yet finished with updating my new website, so it is not yet posted.
Here is the crux of the article. I’ve never tried this with XAMPP, so use at your own risk:
- Make sure you have the most recent, stable version of WPMU and that it is copied into MAMP where you want it to be.
- Read the readme.txt file that comes with WPMU
- Do not manually edit either of these two files:
- wp-config-sample.php file
- htaccess.dist file
Unlike single version WordPress, the WPMU installer will take care of creating the proper files using these two as templates. If you need to make changes to either of these files, do so after the installation has succeeded.
- WPMU wants to run on Apache port 80. Since OS X comes with a copy of Apache set to run on port 80, you will have issues if OS X is automatically configured to start its own copy of Apache on boot. If so, you’ll have to change that. Check to make sure that the Web Sharing checkbox is unchecked in System Preferences > Sharing
- Now fire up your browser and go to localhost:80/index.php and follow the prompts. The path will be different if you’ve installed WPMU in a subdirectory. If so, just add the subdirectory to the url.
- In the field for Server Address, you will see the recommendation to use localhost.localdomain instead of localhost. That did not work for me. Instead, I found that I had to use the internal IP address of my computer (a.k.a the local IP address which is always 127.0.0.1 ). I tried the localhost.localdomain address several different times with no success. If you have already tried this, make sure that you delete the wp-config.php file and start all over.
- If you’ve done this properly, you should now be seeing a friendly “Installation Finished!” screen. Follow the instructions. Write down your password.
- Now, manually enter the address for the admin login screen into your browser’s address bar. If you just hit log in, you may have issues. So, if you are using 127.0.0.1 as the Server Address, you would enter in the browser 127.0.0.1/wp-login.php. The path will be different if you’ve installed WPMU in a subdirectory.
Good luck!. Let me know if this works for you.
Doas anyone know a good guide/tutorial for installing WPMU/Buddypress on OSX with XAMPP? I know i have to change localhost to localhost.localdomain. But where and how can i achieve this? And why isn’t it possible to run WPMU on localhost? No spamming, just for general interest.
Hello guys,
I have been using this wonderful system and learning it since a week.But what i am missing badly is end user documentation.I want my users to know how does the system works.Sometimes myself also get confused about the system.
I am still searching for that if there is availability for uploading files within a group by group members.
Please respond to this as i wanted to launch my buddypress based website soon.I am still in a process of integrating bbpress with my system.I think i will soon complete that also.
Regards,
Sam.
Mmm not sure, if the error is only yours, anyhow if you think it’s a bug you can open a ticket in the trac, so Andy will check it,
https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket
Use your bp credentials to log in
P.S. – me, me! please publish it somewhere..
… err … sorry fot the spam, but I see that also the upgrade deletes a custom plug-in I placed inside the buddypress folder
Just to be even more clear and to confirm the issue once I repeated it, in my case I just placed again:
buddypress-es_ES.po
buddypress-es_ES.mo
I’m having a similar problem. On the activation screen I get a javascript error: “v1Cropper is undefined.” I haven’t changed the buddypress theme, but I have a custom wordpress theme installed and renamed its folder to “default” to force new blogs to use the customized theme. I saved the original default theme in a backup folder. Is it possible I need some file(s) from the original default wordpress theme? I’m using wordpress 2.7.1 and buddypress 1.0.
Thx.
How can i set the current category near the member list title ?
in directories/members/index.php:line 7
<h3><?php _e( ‘Member Listing’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?> – cat. here </h3>
