i have the same problem.. I am installing mu & buddypress for days & just made it working today.. .But my problem is the widgets only display in left side
I have understood that the category slugs can’t be changed in WPMU (other topics, and the fact that field has been removed from inside WP admin).
Is there any way to solve this? I have tried to change the slugs manually in the database, and that works for the content part of my website, but as soon as I enter the Buddypress section, all the references to those pages are to domain.com/ridiculously-long-and-ugly-slug/ instead of just domain.com/slug/ as before.
I really hope this can be fixed.
I have just installed BP and use a static front page. I can’t manage to get to the Buddypress homepage. I can go to /members and /groups, and so on, with no problems, but if I click the Home or Blog links I will just end upp at the static front page (domain.com/).
I have found this topic, but couldn’t solve it using the suggestions in there: http://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2603
There is a post in this thread about your issue : https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2190

That error message could mean many things. It’s just a ‘something didn’t work right’ message that doesn’t tell us anything.
go to wp-admin, there’re options there.
You need to understand more about wpmu before using buddypress. If you face these kind of problems or questions, do not post here as they are not buddypress questions.
Hi there,
i’ve searched for hours and cant find a solution.
The avatarsthumb on many pics are just black.
I comment the lines in the .htacces out and hacked the bp-core-avatar.php as mentioned. The avatars i was trying it, are all over 150px. I tried it in diffrent browser.
I checked the file on the server, the thumb is really black. My GD-Version 2.0.34.
I have no Plugins installed and buddypress and wpmu are in the actual versions.
Please help me with that issue.
Thanks

This post after some digging has all the sql code to define all the tables – it worked and now I can proceed. Still have no idea why there’s a problem – I had to put code in the wp-config because it infinited looped upon admin login. I was not able to select subdirectories as an install option – only subdomains. And, then the buddypress table issue. I assume it’s some kind of funked, esoteric issues w/ my hosting company (shared) but I haven’t had a problem w/ any zen-cart, zoomla or wp installs.
Hello,
Sometimes we can see some links in the profile text areas, like the last 3 links “BuddyPress”, “jQuery”, “etc…” in my profile: http://testbp.org/members/gaetanbuddypress/profile/public.
That’s really nice to find people with same interests…etc!!
But I don’t know what to think about when people write a sentence like “This, word, is a link”, where 3 links are made in this sentence, even if it’s not really useful.
Do you think it’s a bug?
Gaetan
Thank you! Thank you! This is SOOO helpful!

when i disable the buddypress everything works but when i activate it and view mysite i get a blank screen also in the dashboard when i try to edit a page i get a blank screen. someone, anyone with any ideas. http://www.myloveaid.com
Hey, it works now! Thanks Daniel. Sorry, I have another question. How do you delete a topic in Buddypress Group Forum. I can’t find the Delete button anywhere.
i upgraded from wpmu 2.6 to 2.71 and upgraded my buddypress to 1.0 . before i upgraded to 1.0 everything was alright but after i upgraded I get a blank screen when I ever i log on o my site. I can’t get into the admin area all i see is a white screen. can anyone help?
Okay, we need more information. Please answer these questions:

This kind of function, to block user is a MUST HAVE feature. I think this kind of feature was on the list of next releases, have you voted from the buddypress blog?
First, make a test install of wpmu and buddypress. Then import your wordpress xml to the test wpmu install and see how it works (it normally works fine).
If you are satisfied with the results, then go for it.
When a user logs in to the site. That login doesn’t carry over to other blogs. For instance:
When a user logs into http://jeffersoniansobs.org/ and then visits http://mcmurphy.jeffersoniansobs.org/ the admin bar shows me as logged out.
I am not sure when this happened in the upgrade process.
BuddyPress 1.0
WPMU 2.7.1
bbPress 1.0 Alpha 6
I currently have a content site based on WordPress, and I would like to add a community using Buddypress. How should I do this the best? Should I keep my single WP installation and install WordPress MU and Buddypress separately, or is it best to first transfer my site to WPMU and then install Buddypress?
I want to keep my link structure as it is now, if possible.

Thanks Burt. I found it. The one i want to change is this one
} else {
$title = __( ‘Blog’, ‘buddypress’ );
from bp-core-templatetags.php bp_page_title() function. Thanks much
The only solution as far as I know is to edit the DB via PHPMyAdmin (or something similar).
I’ve also seen one more problem with the way BuddyPress stores the activity. If you edit, let’s say, a comment just after you’ve written it, it will show up as two comments in the same DB table, and thus show up two times in the wire widget. And three times if you edit it three times…
I think it should be possible to edit the DB instead of inserting the same information several times.

Hi all,
Sorry about the lame question and i am the newbie of buddypress. I want to change the title name of /blog page and I tried to find codes. But can’t find anywhere. And I tried to search here and I found this topic
http://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1564#post-7823
But it doesn’t help me though. I tried to read it and can’t understand.
I don’t want to create new custom file and called. I just want to change from core codes. Please kindly point out the filename and code to me. Thank you.
I think you are saying that your member’s forum posts do not have the author name on them.
From /buddypress/bp-forums/installation-readme.txt
11. Enable user switching in bbPress by copying the following line of code into your bbPress bb-config.php file:
$bb->bb_xmlrpc_allow_user_switching = true;
Put the above line into your bb-config.file. It doesn’t matter where.
