    To accomplish that, yu have to change the style sheet from the “buddypress” theme CSS (style.css), of course if you are using it for the home theme.

    And remember that when you access to a member option, the theme used is the “buddypress-member” look 4 the style.css on the folder and make the changes too, i did so to have a correspondence between site colors.

    I have used Media Temple for WPMU sites in the past and the Grid is better than most shared hosts, but really WPMU itself can grow past resources quickly. That is why VPS or dedicated is recommended, though many still say they are fine on a shared host if their bandwidth and userbase is low. Other great VPS providers include Slicehost.com and Futurehosting.biz

    Getting recommendations for hosts is covered extensively in the WPMU forums, so you might want to pop by for a search there.

    I am on fused network and they definitely support wildcards. They are a bit pricey, starting at $9.95 a month, but are worth every penny. They truly guarantee 99% uptime.

    In the last 6 months they have been flawless with only one month going below 99% uptime and when that did happen they offered a 1 month credit to all customers that were effected. I declined the offer on the grounds that there policy is almost unfair for them! I will gladly pay $10 month just too know that they truly follow their guarantees.

    As far as tech support goes, they are the best I have found as well. I have submitted 5 tickets so far and everyone was answered right away. Plus none of those tickets was a problem on their end. It was usually me asking for domain setups up or adding wildcard mask for example.

    Highly recommended (and I am not even part of their affiliate network!)

    Yup! Me to. Buddypress is brilliant and I am currently using it for my local Scout group! Bang on works perfectly and events would just round that off. For the mean time however i’ll be using groups for events

    I am using Site5 and they will set up the wildcards on request.

    Anyone use MediaTemple?

    When upgrading to a new version of BuddyPress please do the following:

    * Log in as a site administrator

    * Browse to: yourdomain.com/wp-admin/

    This will upgrade the database tables to the latest version. Not ideal, but there will be a better more obvious way soon enough.

    If you don’t upgrade your tables before you start using a new version, you are going to see lots of things break, and a lot of error messages.

    Thanks

    I use Bluehost and you’re right, you cannot set up WPMU using subdomains; you must use the subdirectory option. This was fine with me because I was already installing WPMU into a subdirectory and though http://member/wpmu/sitename.com would look funny.

    Also, I ran into a few snags while installing onto Bluehost but found some very easy fixes.

    #2430

    I tried setting up BuddyPress and WordPressMU on Bluehost, but found out they don’t support wildcards.

    Who has had good successes creating Buddypress sites? What hosting, ISP do you recommend? Thx!

    BuddyPress is perfect for local groups who have meetups. Is anyone thinking about adding events functionality?

    I’ve starting to customise both the home and member themes supplied with buddypress, adding my customisations to a file called custom-styles.css that, as Andy pointed out on the mailing list a few weeks back, is imported automatically. Everything works fine but I have some suggestions as to how it could be better implemented.

    Currently custom-styles.css is called by way of an @import at the beginning of style.css. This is problematic for a couple of reasons. By calling the customisations BEFORE the default styles you must add “!important” to all your selectors in custom-styles.css in order to effectivly over-ride the defaults which can be a real nightmare. Also, as pointed out in Ticket 164 the @import reference to custom-styles.css is included in styles.css but the file itself is not included in the theme so a 404 is generated and the error logs get hammered.

    I have implemented what I beleive is a better, cleaner approach:

    style.css contains just two @import calls to default-styles.css and custom-styles.css (in that order). By default the latter can be either commented out or an empty file included with the theme.

    The current content of style.css becomes default-styles.css (minus the @import call to custom-styles.css of course).

    Basically this means that when customising the theme you can choose to add custom styles by over-riding in custom-styles.css or, as I imagine a lot of developers will prefer, completely replace the default styles by commenting out the default-styles.css import line and design from the ground-up (using default-styles.css just for reference).

    This simplified approach should also be easier to manage as new builds are rapidly being released and applied during the development of BuddyPress.

    I’d be interested to here how others have approached managing customisation as the platform has developed.

    I am currently using Buddypress for my humble website start up. As I spoke to friends for feedback, they would like to see things like:

    a. able to highlight a member’s birthday is today..

    -may be a sidebar calendar widget that the mouse over a date, it will show the member/s that are having their birthday today or

    -may be the Avatar of that member will ‘glow’ or blink? hmm

    b. able to select from a series of virtual ‘gifts’ to express like saying hi, can I know you etc… (hopefully we are not creating tonnes of images but hey, it is good to keep the tradition of giving even in the virtual world).

    c. Voice clip for members to say hi, self intro etc. and who knows may be we can send a voice clip to another to say hi…hopefully the files won’t consume all the storage.

    Dreamcolour, may I know if your translation is into Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese? It is best to identify it as in HK/Taiwan, they both use Traditional Chinese.

    Sorry if this is a slightly off topic supporty kinda question but just wondering if anyone might have an idea as to why, on my local dev install of WPMU/Buddypress (WAMP on Vista), Avatars are being referenced with the url: http://domain.localhost/C:wampwww/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/1/dsc_0783-avatar1.jpg.

    ie. putting in “C:wampwww/” before the wp-content directory.

    Uploading and cropping the image for the avatar appears to work fine it just doesn’t show correctly in any other instance. I’ve looked through my config settings and just can’t figure out what I’m missing. (same install works fine when uploaded to my linux stageing server.)

    Appreciate any incite anybody can give me on this :-)

    It’s a BuddyPress issue – this is hardcoded at the moment, there will be an option to change in Site Admin > BuddyPress soon.
