Go into the Dashboard logged in as the “WPMU admin” into -> Site-Admin => Themes and then disable the theme from there. You can always go to Site-Admin -> Blogs and edit your main blog to enable the them only for the main blog.

several posts with lots of things to try here:
https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=892
did you search the forums?
has anyone move the create post and manage post administration into the buddypress theme rather than the traditional wordpress back-end?
The topic https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=843 has been closed and i feel sorry for it, because with my later installation wp MU 2.7 + BP béta 2, i’m still having this error msg :
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/np5397/domains/blogi.ee/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-signup.php on line 104
when creating a new blog
that cause several issues :
– can’t edit the profiles, create a group
– blogs are created but aren’t showing in the recent activity, neither in the blogs tabs or in his owner’s profile
– can’t send a message, invite somebody to be friend, etc
it seems that i have no x-profile tables in my db like burtadsit asks
(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_groups
(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_fields
(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_data
here is the list of the tables in my db ; can’t see it
wp_1_comments,
wp_1_links,
wp_1_options,
wp_1_postmeta,
wp_1_posts,
wp_1_term_relationships,
wp_1_term_taxonomy,

please how can i create manually those tables in my sqlDB ?
thanks for any advice
I do not want users to be able to select the “buddypress” theme as their blog theme!
Unfortunately the buddypress themes is listed with the other themes available to users. This is allowing users to select it as their themes…
I want this theme to be available for the WPMU administrator only! How do I do that?
Thanks for your help….
I have been folowing development since BP was just Andy. I am in the midst of rebuilding our radio network site on BuddyPress. I’m about half way through the process. It’s coming along.

You need a SVN client to do svn co https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk. Then in future you can run svn update to update to the latest “trunk” copy. It’s a bit hard to go further into specifics as I don’t know what Operating System you use, but have a google around if you get stuck.`
was not trying to be rude, sorry if it came off that way. This script was used with the Beta 1 of BP without issue, so whatever changed in the Beta 2 that is related is what I need to find a workaround for. Just asking for some guidance/assistance. The script is textbook php so it works fine from that respect…. I have 2 databases in mySQL, 1 that is for the WordPressMU and Buddypress, and another that I created separately for another part of my site….the second database is the one the script is calling.
Any thoughts?
Hi.
What error do you get when you try and create the groups?
There’s a sticky that details the BBPress integration (https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=471).
You configure how you want new blogs to be created in the admin tool of WPMU (IIRC).
@MartinNr5,
That’s the mystery. My member-themes folder contains a directory called ‘buddypress-member’ and that’s it.
I don’t have a buddypress-home folder there.
I think there is a function that is defined to look for a file here: /wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php
but cannot, because the location doesn’t exist.
I’m wondering where this function is and how to redefine it.

You could try and create a hidden blog and change the theme for just that to see if you can manage the widgets. Alternatively post a link to the theme you’re using and I’ll give it a spin on my setup.
As for the avatars… Do you have the “blog.dir” folder in your “wp-content” folder?
I haven’t tried switching the theme – that one was chosen so the menus across the top would be easy. Perhaps I could give it a try, though I am reluctant… Also, Martin, you are correct – I am using Safari and FireFox and have the same issue across all with the avatars.
Looking at the path you’re posting above (/wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php) it seems as if you’ve selected the BuddyPress home theme as the default theme for your member pages and not the actual member theme.
I’m not sure how you’d be able to do that though.
What are the contents in your “member-themes” folder?
Hi,
everything works on the bbPress side with umlauts. Whould it be possible to use the same filters for the BuddyPress side of the forum?
Best,

I’ve created a request for this here: http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/453
Just posting to the forum as well as few check the trac for feature requests (including myself
).
Nevermind, after some digging I found this feature request that explains that this isn’t possible yet: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/309
Feel free to close this thread.
I’m running IE (8 even) and that’s not the problem with Laura’s site (nor have I’ve seen it on my own setup).
The registration steps works fine, it’s the end result that is the problem.
Buddypress is not unusable software. I suggest being a bit more polite if you come looking for help, especially to the official Buddypress forums.
It’s because you’re trying to shoehorn a PHP script into your theme. Either one of the PHP variables you use in the snippet in bold is used elsewhere by Buddypress – thus getting weird conflicts – or it’s to do with one of your mysql_ function calls, possibly mysql_select_db().
blogs.dir and some other folders will probably need to be chown’d to the user and group that runs the webserver. Apache2 by default (I think) uses the nobody user account, so I’m assuming that’s what your host uses.
Whilst 777 will let everything access it, from a security perspective, you should really go for 755 permissions and check that the owner/group of the files is the same as that of the webserver.
BTW if you’d have tested uploading an avatar on a plain WordPress MU install, you’d have had exactly the same problem. This isn’t buddypress.
sgrunt: if there is a suspected problem with IE, you should detail a report at https://trac.buddypress.org/ so people can check and confirm and fix it.
i think you should modify both the buddypress home and the member theme: the base.css file or the custom.css file for both themes. Change the body, the left, right, center column width, and the narrow and wide column.
for the avatars: i’ve noticed that there is a problem with internet explorer. It just does not show the button for going to the next step. Try with Mozilla and see if it works
(You don’t need to insert code, just copy and paste the text straight into the post.)
It seems as if I’m not skilled enough to help you further as I have no idea what this could be.
I see that you have a custom theme though. Can you try and revert to the default BuddyPress theme and see if that works?
Hi guys.
Sorry for my bad english but good old germans aren’t that good in speaking foreign languages..
Is there any possibility to center whole buddypress so that you have “white” space on the left and right? I think this would look some kind of more “Professional” and could allow a better advertising system. Does anybody know which divs and classes have to be changed to achieve that?
Thanks, Dennis
Hi,
I’m updating an old WPMU site with avatars to BuddyPress. Obviously when I install BuddyPress it doesn’t pick up the old avatars, and this is the problem.
As I only have 50 users I could potentially manually update the avatars for everyone (as I have a copy of the original avatar files) if only there was a way.
Anyone have a suggestion???
