    Hi,

    I just installed BuddyPress on my newly installed WordPressMU.

    If I click Create a Home Base! I get the following Error:

    You’re logged in already. No need to register again!

    And it doesn’t create a homebase of cause.

    Any Idea? I tried everything, but it just doesn’t work. I always land on the same site with the same error.

    I’m not really sure if I understand how these themes are supposed to work.

    I installed buddypress into a pretty much stock WPMU 2.6.2 install.

    I went in and selected the Home theme for my main site’s blog.

    What do do with the buddypress theme? Do I force it on my users?

    I noticed that on the demo site that the user’s posts are in their own themes, but when you go to their blog’s “home page” it’s the buddypress theme. Is that how it’s supposed to be?

    My site is http://geekdc.com

    Glad you found and shared a temporary workaround. This was also brought up in another topic recently, and Andy said “In the first version for the end of the year, BuddyPress will only support open networks. However, the plan is to put together a generic privacy component which can be used by all components to restrict and allow customizable privacy levels.”.

    Privacy isn’t built in yet but it will be soon enough.

    Did you install them in /mu-plugins/ or just /plugins/?

    Plugins installed in /mu-plugins/, such as BuddyPress, will not show up on the plugins page as plugins in this folder are automatically activated across the entire WPMU install.

    On the other hand, if plugins are only needed on a blog-by-blog basis they are to be installed in the regular /plugins/ directory and will be shown on the plugins page just as in regular wordpress.

    The BuddyPress plugins are supposed to be installed in /mu-plugins/ per step 3 of the instructions.

    Here’s what I did as a temporary solution (this is prob. not the best way, so I wouldnt recommend it). In each /theme/buddypress/plugin folder, for example /theme/buddypress/profile/index.php after div id=”content”> I added

    <?php

    global $bp, $wpmu;
    $potential_friend_id = $bp['current_userid'];
    $friend_status = BP_Friends_Friendship::check_is_friend( $bp['loggedin_userid'], $potential_friend_id );
    if ( $friend_status != 'is_friend' && $potential_friend_id != $bp['loggedin_userid']) {
    echo "You must be friends to view this profile.".bp_add_friend_button();
    } else { ?>

    then before the last </div> in the file i added

    <?php } ?>

    Hello!

    I just installed WPMU in what I believe is my root. I can go to the main website address and WPMU shows up.

    Then I downloaded all of the zip files for BuddyPress, and uploaded the proper files and folders as per the txt INSTALL file. I looked in my WPMU plugins page in the dashboard and no plugins show up.

    I imagine this is why my profile isn’t showing up either?

    Am I missing something? I thought I understood this all…

    Thanks!

    Hi, Loving Buddypress and can’t wait for the release.

    I have a problem when trying to install on a localhost server (XAMPP).

    Home page is there and I seem to be able to create profiles and users. But I’m constantly getting “Opps 404” when I go to view profiles / blogs / everything else.

    I’m guessing it’s because I’ve got to install WPMU under localhost.localdomain.

    Is there a way around this?

    I already translate BuddyPress to Chinese and create a po file. But I don’t know how to use it directly.

    And I found that if I mesh the po file of BP to po file of MU. It can work. But MU and BP wasn’t upgrade in same time everytime. So I want to know how to use the language pack single.

    How somebody can understand my poor english. Ha…

    wow

    No kidding people. wow. I’ve been out of web developement for 7 yrs. Perl was the way to go for CGI back then. (anyone remember CGI?). I’m moving back into it now and just spent the last 2 months trying to catch up. I got to the point of integrating Drupal, WordPress and phpBB3 together (users/session mgmt). Decided to abandon 2 months of headaches and start with wp and a forum. I’d do the group and social stuff as custom.

    The forum remained phpBB3. Decided to drop that ’cause it just scared users away. OK NOW WHAT FORUM. Found bbPress and the wp+bbpress integration capability. Lovely! A slim, user friendly forum and the best blog engine. Cool. Move to wpmu and in my browsing and carousing around the forums found BuddyPress.

    wow.

    God loves those who surf. Can’t tell ya people how lovely this stuff is and is gonna be. wpmu+bbpress+buddypress

    (did I say wow?)

    Thanks abunches people!

    Delete what you have, and install the trunk:

    https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk

    Use the “zip archive” link at the bottom of that page.

    Was your WPMU install clean and functioning properly when you attempted the BuddyPress install?

    #33257

    Yep, group administration and editing will be in the next version of the groups component. I’ll be moving onto that next, once the home theme is in.

    That slide was really only for a high level overview. The best bet is to look at each component here:

    https://trac.buddypress.org/wiki/roadmap

    Basically, everything on the list for each component needs to be done before it’s considered ready for a first real release.

    I can try taking a stab at that in a few days. It would be nice if ideally the syntax was the same between all BuddyPress installations (even though some use subdomains for blogs and others use /blog syntax).

    Any suggestions on what the ideal URL syntax would be for all of this?

    /home/andy – home?

    /blogs/andy – all of andy’s blogs?

    /profile/andy – andy’s profile?

    I believe Will Norris is having a look at this. He’s just completed the OpenID v3 plugin for WPMU, so it’s a matter of porting it to BuddyPress.

    Hello there!

    I was wondering if it will be possible to add OpenID support for BuddyPress in the future. OpenID is becoming more and more popular as time passes, and I think that, eventually, this is what most users will go with. So it would be ideal to offer both possibilities to the users. :)

    That is actually what I’d prefer and that’s how MySpace works but users could also request more blogs under this system (just as they do now in BuddyPress) as WPMU allows users to be assigned to multiple blogs, I’d just like their first one to be on their username subdomain instead of an entirely different subdomain.

    There are also user online plugins for bbPress for those who have integrated forums and are looking for other alternatives, though the one I linked above definitely works with MU.

    I’m looking forward to the chat plugin duanestorey. I’ve hosted chat rooms before but it’d be nice to have one that ties into the MU/BuddyPress login system.

    There is going to be an album plugin, it’s just not finished yet. For more about it check out the about page.

    As for what features it will include I don’t know off hand but it wouldn’t be too difficult of a task to add ratings and comments I presume if they weren’t included.

    Same idea here https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=25#post-92 , where Andy linked to this topic :).

    I think we need to discuss more about it.

    We can handle such URL like http://domain.com/andypeatling/home or http://domain.com/user/andypeatling simply by customizing the home theme. Instead of using another theme for the home base, let the home theme handle it.

    I hope the other components have enough flexibility to be used in such way.

    Hi – first: This Project is GREAT – exactly what I was looking for combined with a perfect timing… We are running right now a test-community just to check out BuddyPress (redmountn.ch)

    No I’m afraid, that I am a green horn, and it’s my fault… But I’m posting my possible bugs and questions anyway:

    1. Could it be, that IE has some Troubles with BuddyPress (I know, nobody here uses it, but the people “out there” do :-))? Examples: Friend-Finder doesnt really work, The Logo in the Menu-Bar is in the wrong place, adding a friend does work, but the process doesn’t stop etc… If there is a link underneath the pulldown menu (in the menu-bar), the menu doesn’t work properly)

    2. Could it be, that real-time Updating doesn’t work properly…? The Activity-Feed of my Friends does updates only every couple houres (in our test-community)? The friends-activity is outdated, etc

    3. Group-Pictures don’t work… (I tried it with bigger ones that 450×450)

    4. Did you think about other languages? We are from Switzerland and would like to have/make a german translation. But it doesn’t make sense to change the files themeself (because of updates). Any other things planned, in mind, possible?

    5. I think it’s not very userfriendly, that my landig-page after login is the backend of wordpress – my opinion it should be my graphical-profile “in” BuddyPress or something…

    6. Maybe that is a dummy question – but anyway: What is a “Group” in BuddyPress? Is that a tag? How does it work in the “backend” of wordpress and can it there be changed etc..?

    As far as I know this plugin should work with BuddyPress, I know it works with WPMU 2.6.2.

    Is there a way to show who’s online with BuddyPress (yet)? How easy/hard would it be to add this functionality?

    There’s a privacy plugin available for WPMU, but it works on the blog part only and I’m not sure how well it would work with Buddypress.

    For number 2 see: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=26

    Number 1 is not possible right now, but a plugin could be written for this.
