I’m seeing that many (or most) people seem to be building BP sites using their own variations of the standard BuddyPress themes. As BP becomes more popular, do you think the trend will be to create custom themes or modify other, more traditional WP themes?
Just wondering which direction to head in.
Thanks,
Mark

I am runing buddypress trunk 865
So if any one can help or give me any ideas how how i might fix it!
Thank You very much in advance
I am using the standard BuddyPress home and member themes and wanted to assign default sidebar widgets. I am able to assign sidebar widgets to the left, center and right sidebars using a new file I called sidebarwidgets.php in the wp-content/mu-plugins directory. The code for in sidebarwidgets.php is:
<?php
function new_blogs_setting( $blog_id ) {
add_option( ‘widget_categories’,
array( ‘title’ => ‘My Categories’ ));
add_option(“sidebars_widgets”,
array(“sidebar-1” => array(“recent-posts”),
“sidebar-2” => array(“categories”, “tag_cloud”),
“sidebar-3” => array(“pages”, “links”)));
}
add_action(‘populate_options’, ‘new_blogs_setting’);
?>
This works great and the setting is applied to all NEW blogs created after uploading sidebarwidgets.php. However, I can’t figure out how to create a default setting for the blog sidebar (sidebar-4). When I put in code with a similar syntax it causes the whole site to white screen. In the interim, users see a message asking them to add a widget to the blog sidebar, so they would have to add that manually.
I am no programmer, so I am hoping someone wiser than I might be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks!
It would be helpful to add a more intuitive link between BuddyPress and the WordPress Dashboard and “Add a Post†functions.
A suggestion would for users own profiles on the “My Blogs†screen to provide an “Add a Post†link under each users blog.
Otherwise new users not familiar with Blogging tend to keep clicking on “Create a Blog†and creating multiple blogs. When what they want to do is add a post to their existing default blog created during registration. This is a real usability issue for new users.
Also, in the “My Blogs†vertical navigation bar there should be links to New Post and Dashboard for the initial default blog.
Hey, newbie here to the whole WordPress / BuddyPress world. I have an existing on-line portal/mag/social network at http://www.doorQ.com. We’re looking at moving the entire thing from its limited dotnet framework over to the open source BP. We know there will be a few issues with the data conversion, but I have some people comfortable enough with SQL to make that work.
What I was looking at is combining the social networking with the magazine features, to try to replicate what we have going now. I wanted to use a theme like this: “www.woothemes.com/demo/gazette/” as the main page for the site, have a few of the social networking aspects pop up on that page (like most recent or active members along with their icons) and then have a second page that aggregates all of the social network activity.
Make sense so far?
Here are my questions:
1) If I use the gazette or similar theme, make it the default theme for the BP install, and add the various components to the appropriate theme folders, I can then draw on the PHP script to add whatever buddy features I’d like to any of the pages created by that theme? Like having the currently on-line members appear on the page?
2) For what is now the BP home page — listing recent activity, users, etc — I can then hard code that as a page on the site, so that, from the main magazine page, there is a link that says something like “Social Network?”
I want everything to be interlinked, the way things are now, on my existing site. In theory, this should work, right?

I’me getting this error when I try to upload any avatar:
“Upload Failed! Error was: The uploaded file could not be moved to the upload folder.”
Normal WordPress uploads are working fine.
Working on WPMU 2.7 “Bleeding Edge” and BuddyPress r832
For those of you who installed the group forums fix, you can delete the buddypress side of the equation. Andy made some changes in r860 of the bp trunk. We don’t need it anymore. The bbpress side still needs the oci_fix_xmlrpc_bbpress.php at the moment.
Thank you Andy.

…did anyone had success with running it with wpmu/buddypress?
Any plans to develop wpmu version? If not – any hints how I could fix it to work propetly with wpmu?
Gotta be mikepratt and apeatling. Just guessing. lol. We were just discussing that on #buddypress irc.freenode.netJoin us.
Topic: Where/how to get started?
I need a fairly basic widget for the front page that displays “Help Needed”. Users can posts needs and tie them to specific groups. I have looked at some of examples that buddypressdev has but that is more so for pages. Almost all of this functionality is in the widget.
Where is a good starting point?
Thanks in advance
Topic: Image alignment
Folks, I just opened a ticket to enable the image alignment options you get in the WP “add media” function.
Until this is incorporated, here’s the ticket with CSS adjustment.
http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/352
*update* – unfortunately, this screws things up in the single.php view. We’ll need someone with good CSS skills to figure this out.
