Hello,
i comment out this lines, but i get the same result.
I do some more tests, maybe they help.
if i put this in the title: öäüÖÄÜß
and this 3 lines in the content:
öäüÖÄÜß
1. fdgfd gdfgd sfgsdgs dfggf dfgd
2. fdgdsgd fdgdfgd gdfsadfsdafsd dfg
i get this:
Title: öäüÖÄÜß
Content: all lines deleted
If i put this in the Title: öäüÖÄÜß
and this in the content:
1. fdgfd gdfgd sfgsdgs dfggf dfgd
2. fdgdsgd fdgdfgd gdfsadfsdafsd dfg
öäüÖÄÜß
i get this:
Title: öäüÖÄÜß
Content:
1. fdgfd gdfgd sfgsdgs dfggf dfgd
2. fdgdsgd fdgdfgd gdfsadfsdafsd dfg
Last test. If i put this line in the content:
öäüÖÄÜß this is a test
after sending it the whole line is empty /get deleted.
All this is only in the BuddyPress frontend.
So in the title i can use any umlauts, but in the content the filter routine deletes not only the umlauts, but depending on where the umlauts are also the rest of the text.
Best,
Karl
I’ve been looking at this problem and getting frustrated. I realized finally that the filter function actually does two things:
$content = htmlentities( $content, ENT_COMPAT, "UTF-8" );
$content = str_replace( '&', '/amp/', $content );
From http://loadaveragezero.com/app/drx/Data_Formats/Character_Encoding
[…] But there are a number of other issues to deal with. In particular, because UTF-8 is a multibyte encoding, meaning one character can be represented by more one or more bytes. This causes trouble for PHP, because the language parses and processes strings based on bytes, not characters, and makes mincemeat multibyte strings – for example, by splitting characters ‘in half’, bodging up regular expressions, and rendering email unreadable.
Karl can you just comment out the following lines please:
Line 46 $content = str_replace( '&', '/amp/', $content ) in bp-forums-filters.php
and line 52 $post_text = str_replace( '/amp/', '&', $post_text ); in buddypress-enable.php on the bbpress side.
I’d like to narrow this down to the htmlentities fn.
I’m gonna help solve this or just move to a planet where only ASCII is spoken. 
Thanks again for your help and support,
in my Site Admin > BuddyPress I only see a wp mu number, and it’s 2.7
but now you’ve make me think about that I’ve overriden the install
with an traslation,which was not update, possibly, because 2.7 did came out just a couple of hours before install, just guessing anyway.
One thing is for sure, that page/link ‘Account Settings’, was working after install,
I can bet on that because I’m runnining wp mu+BP 2.6.5 on another site and i’ve basically tried out and poked out everithing on the new (the one we are talking about)
Thanks
Can we integrate this Divshare to buddypress and this could save on bandwidth& storage etc.
Because users can upload media on to the Divshare not your host?
http://www.divshare.com/integrate
If you go to Site Admin > BuddyPress what version numbers display at the bottom of that page?
Hello,
i still have not found the problem with the umlauts.
the strange thing is, that in the forum title (BuddyPress frontend) the umlauts are there, but in the text the are deletet.
So if the title is like öäüÖÄÜß, after sending it, it looks like öäüÖÄÜß
If i write the same umlauts in the textbox, then after sending it the text is empty.
Is the filter for the title and the textbox not the same in BuddyPress?
If i write it in the bbPress Frontend, everything is ok.
Best,
Karl
I installed WPMU, which seems to be working fine. After I installed the buddypress plugin, I am getting the following error whenever I try to view my site: Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user() in /html/wp-includes/capabilities.php line 920.
But if I remove the buddypress plugin, the WPMU works fine. (Note that the relevant permissions are already set to 755.)
I’ve been hearing that this is caused by a widget error in one of the buddypress plugins, but am not sure how to fix it.
Any advice would be appreciated.
That sounds ominous. I googled the phrase and found several forums (with WPMU) where people reported the same problem and gave some fixes. No one seemed to think it was that big of a deal.
As for me, my WPMU works fine until I add the buddypress plugin; then it stops working.
Anyone have any solutions?
The admin mods no longer are part of the BuddyPress package. if you are still getting these errors then you need to make sure you have updated BuddyPress completely.
Something is very wrong with your installation if you’re getting that error. That is a core WordPress function.
I have this same problem arturo84. I am using WP MU 2.7 and BuddyPress beta 2 on a Windows XAMPP.
In advance, thanks.
Here’s the Php error that I’m getting:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user() in /html/wp-includes/capabilities.php on line 920
Any ideas?
UPDATE follow: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=405#post-4931

Thanks. So far, wordpress mu is working beautifully. It’s when I try to add in the buddypress plugin that everything goes wrong.
Hy,
same problem here, on wp mu 2.7,
plus after having ‘runned’ that file twice with same alert.wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-xprofile/admin-mods/bp-xprofile-account-tab.php (just to see what happen)
homepage (on ‘root’+ BuddyPress Home Theme) did appear without most of the previously selected widgets (only the center/middle coloum did ‘survive’).
funnily, so to speak, on the widgets board them appear deactivated,
the “self-deactivated” widgets (after the double run of ‘ bp-xprofile-account-tab.php ‘ or incidentally at the same time but for other unknown reasons)
are:
- Welcome
- Members
- Who’s Online
- Site Wide Activity
- Recent Blog Posts
-
- Groups
so all dinamic related plugs
Unafected widgets,in the Homepage, as this matter did possibily trigger homepage only (apparently)
- pages
- Recent post
- Calendar
- Search
- Archives
I’ve reactivated the ‘rebels’ widgets on their original position, content and setting
were not affected by this incident
I will hide (//) that string, even if I’m quite sure that function was working up to this morning, when I had All in One SEO , Google XML Sitemaps , and Post to SimpleMachines Forum SMF plugin already working
I did a back up before to install:Add to Any: Share/Save/Bookmark Button- AJAX Comment Preview -OpenID – and SEO Smart Links,so I’m going to deactivate theese latests plug
and see what happen backing up of 4-5 hors.
please read this post as feedback.
cheers 🙂

Hi guys,
I understand that buddypress has a recent post widget that shows the title of recent posts by the sidebar.
Could it be modified to incorporate an excerpt for each of these posts?
I understand theres already such a widget for forum posts by Nicola here: http://buddypressdev.org/plugins/bpdev-forums-excerpt
But there are none for recent blog posts! 
@ apeatling
I did that, but it still didn’t change.
On the latest version of buddypress, you can view your version in the admin now on the “buddypress” options page
http://speakeasyesl.com/mu This is a testing ground for another wordpress install I’m thinking of for language learners.

edit: actually one major but im getting is trying to post a new topic to this site… I have a problem but everytime i try to post it in a subforum it says “topic not found”… i must have tried 6 times, i hope they arent going through bc its not on my profile page.
hi, i’ve downloaded and installed the latest combo (beta 2) but when i try to activate the home theme i view this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_search_form() in /home/…/public_html/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/header.php on line 33
what’s wrong? thanks
@PerS Great tip. Thanks. Used it right away as I tested my first foray into BuddyPress.
Hi,
How do I add some default profile fields in BuddyPress? The users can access it in the WP dashboard (http://sitename.com/wp-admin/profile.php) but that is confusing.
I would like to expose some of the default WP profile fields (Nickname etc.) to the users in the same place they edit the other BuddyPress profile information.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris
