I got the language working. I changed the name of the WPMU language file from et.mo to et_ET.mo to match BP’s language file which had the name buddypress-et_ET.mo. Also changed it in wp-config. I’m not sure if BP’s language file had to have this name, but the German version was buddypress-de_DE.mo, so I made it like this.
So now it’s working but with minor problems. For example the plural format for time is wrong. It adds an s in the end of hours and minutes. But in Estonian there are different plural forms for different words… So I have no idea what to do with that.
Please be aware that in r565+ the location of member themes has changed.
Instead of having member themes in the /wp-content/themes/ directory, they are now in /wp-content/member-themes/
If you are running an existing installation you will need to move the /wp-content/themes/buddypress-member/ to /wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-member/
In the latest revision there is a readme file explaining how you can create additional custom BuddyPress member themes.
Or you can just read it here: http://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk/buddypress-theme/member-themes/member-themes-readme.txt
wpmu 2.6.3 fr
buddypress trunk 564
i was using trunk 547 with groupes functioning pretty good
i made an update to trunk 564 today and noww it is not possible for users to join groups
it just shows an error message :There was an error joining the group.
at the top of the group page
Thanks, slaFFik but this was already done, I think that problem is something else… 
Also you should do the same language changes in “Site Admin” – “Options” page
You should put buddypress-xx.po and buddypress-xx.mo files into that folder and change your lang in the Dashboard > Settings.
Than open your wp-config.php file and change wplang variable to xx. Nothing else sould be done. I did exactly what I wrote and everything is ok.
I put translated .po and .mo files into wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-languages. In the Dashboard > Settings I changed the language but seems that .mo and .po file is not working…
Agree with Dudboi – POT file is needed.
I’m in a process of translating into Russian.
I can confirm the same as gogoplata… with one diff: I have buddypress home theme not on my main blog. I’ve changed in the code the ID of the blog in some php files and voilà .
Are all of you running the theme on blog with ID=1?
I had a WordPress MU installation before adding BuddyPress to it, with users and blogs.
Translated .po and .mo files were made and put into wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-languages. WPMU was translated before installing BPress. In the Dashboard>Settings I changed the language to English and back to Estonian to make sure it turned the language on. Translated the templates too.
And whhile template changes work, most things aren’t translated, so it seems that .mo file isn’t working.
And another problem I have is that old members aren’t showing up in the members list. Only those who registered after installing BuddyPress are in the list.
I don’t know much about databases, but it seems to me like maybe the databases haven’t registered the changes and need some kind of refresh or something?
Please help, my site is live and has active users, which make it pretty urgent for me.
What about igchosting.in, does it work well with BP?
OK, I have submitted a better patch to allow complete customisation of the admin bar using add_action() WordPress hooks.
It also has log in and register and is available from https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/174
Please Note, this patch will possibly not work if used on top of the previous patch, so make sure you have the original core files installed first.
It appears BuddyPress isn’t deleting avatars when users change their avatars or on failed uploads. I expected each user to have 2, or maybe 3, avatar images associated with their account but some users have 100 or more files in their avatar folder, seemingly from old avatars that are no longer being used.
Is everybody’s install behaving this way? Its just consuming alot of space on my server and I’d like to modify BuddyPress to only have 2-3 files per user.
Are you using the latest files from the trunk?:
https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk
Any modifications?
Nothing special, just curious if someone is sitting on a intresting idea 
Hate that I can´t be more of help because I don´t know how php! Wish I could help in some way…
All you who are developing Buddypress are my new idols!
Whenever a message is deleted in BuddyPress I receive an error that says “Wire post could not be deleted, please try again.” and am redirected back to my public profile. The message is deleted, but this error shouldn’t be occuring. Anyone else encounter this?
I’m having an issue on my BuddyPress install where the compose message page is populating with the last sent messages’ subject and message and an author of “undefined”. I think it’s related to an auto-save function, but haven’t had a chance to fix it yet and wanted to see if anyone else had run into this problem?
It’s basically as simple as copying the code and CSS from the buddypress-home file into your theme and tweaking it to match your site.
The trunk version is available here:
https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk
At the bottom of that page is a link to download all the files in .zip format. Give that a try on your site and you should have better luck with getting it to work.
Is there something specific you’re looking for. Most WordPress plugins and WPMU plugins will work alongside BuddyPress. Right now the focus is on getting all the basic features stable for a formal release in the next month or so, but additional plugins will definitely be developed for this system.
I have two separate issues with users that I am looking to solve.
First the easy one. I have a user profile that was set up and had some activity. I later deleted the user from the WPMU list, but it still shows up in buddypress and is available for invites etc. How do I go about deleting this user? I assume that I just need to get into the sql table and delete the information from there?
Second, I am having problems with my user profile (admin) and group invites. The problem appears to be isolated to my profile, so it seems like the fix is to simply abandon the profile and start a new one. My concern is that I will lose administration over the groups created with that profile, and I will loose the friends associated with it. Is there anyway I can merge it into a new profile, or hard code group administration and friends into a new user?
Please use the trunk version of BuddyPress.
Great! Thanks for the help. In the end I just uploaded a nontranslated english MO file to the languages folder. Though it doesn’t really make sense for me to update both the WP MU and BuddyPress languages together.
I mean I suppose it’s useful for people who actually want to do translations, but shouldn’t there be a separate function for buddypress altogether (that perhaps is linked to WP MU?)
just simple couple of questions… i have a shared host really cheap one with lunar pages…
I installed wpmu and realised that the subdomain function would work as i didn’t have access the Apache server and this means i cant ad the wildcard dns thingy.. so subdomains we out…
so i reinstaled using the sub directory… this worked fine..
i then tried to instal budypress with teh zip files.. as said in the readme…
with the blogs one it just gave a a parse syntax php ( or one of those php eror lines on a white page just saying something was wring on a line around 300 i forget exactely..) error that would not let me do
anything… so i deleted the blogs one and then it worked and i could ad a profile on the admin contol pannel but not on the splash page from register.. it first asked to creat a new blog then the profile so that didnt seem right..
questions.. does budy press work on sub directories and why was the blogs plugin not working..
i am trying to create a social site for spots or locations in kenya…
cheers..
I have submitted a patch:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/174
adds Log In and Sign Up (only if enabled registrations)
*adds* …there is also some info there for creating your own custom admin bar.
