Ok I did this but my Blog doesn’t load? it just is a white screen and continually says loading in the browser, I even tried logging into Cpanel and creating the subdomain within there as well but still the same issue?

I have put the line define( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 3 ); in my wpconfig in the root directory of my WPMU install… so what am I missing?

Any ideas?

WPMU:2.8.5

BP:1.1.2

URL: the-exemplars.com

BPURL: people.the-exemplars.com

As this issue is quite perplexing, perhaps we should keep the discussion here instead of via PM. That way, others can benefit as well.

You mentioned in one of your PMs that both your BP installations are active. This means that you cannot start over with a clean MySQL table.

However, for purposes of isolating this problem, can you create a third installation on your live server. This way, we will know whether or not an absolutely clean, vanilla install (new MySQL DB, new WPMU and BP install using the default BP theme with no 3rd-party plugins) works on your server environment, works on the server your web host has provided to you.

i checked the svn… no change… so they do not plan on making it tested right away, i would think Jeff is completely right about the version and release date…

i don’t like pushing projects to go quicker only to make some persons happy, so guys, take your time… lol

btw, i have plenty of job doing fixes on the engines i already have, porting my widgets and plugins to the latest version and try to make my themes more efficient with the actual structure of BP — because BP have a lot more css elements than the regular WP/MU, a lot of things have to be edited to make it fit with my themes…

…edit after Andy’s post: hey, if you need a founder’s help, just contact me… i have plenty of time working bugs and features out!

any solution to this ?

++1 for DJPaul!

@ John James Jacoby,

I had a look in the bp-events-avatar.php to understand more what’s going on there.

I’m thinking the avatar part could be like it is now.

It would be enough, if the original resized image would be available.

I did some changes to the bp-events-avatar.php and make a plugin from it.

For the moment, I will use the modified functions in custom components until you offer a better way to do it. I think it would be really great if the original resized image would be saved by the core.

Be careful!

This Plugin is just a play around on a fun buddypress installation.

“I tried that and ended up with new blogs that are blank pages …. “

Right, because new blogs expect to find a them in the folder called /default/. Which someone told you to delete.

Best fix: get the New Blog Defaults plugin. Set the default theme to your custom one.

http://wpmudev.org/project/New-Blog-Defaults

Count me in the DJPaul fan club.

I digged a little and I found this:

When a new user try to upload an avatar, the file goes in:

/www/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/avatars (the root blog)

But the profile page displays avatars from:

/www/wp-content/blogs.dir/3/files/avatars (the sub-second we use for all buddypress pages)

I’m wondering if it’s not a buddypress bug when there is an hybrid use of themes.

I second DJPaul’s ascension to god-like status (and nominate Jeff Sayre, for pointing me here). This solution worked perfectly. I now have BP running on blog.mydomain.com as the community hub for the entire site. Everything is neat and tidy and works just fine. Many thanks.

r-a-y

I suggest pasting your solution into this thread for the time being. Otherwise, it will get pushed down into the the large, deep-thread morass.

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/faq-how-to-code-snippets-and-solutions

A few months from now after all BP installs have hopefully switched to the parent/child theme architecture, it can then be removed.

I have not seen this particular issue reported.

Above you state that:

I’ve attempted to one by one remove plugins and add them back I’ve even tried deactivating bp and reuploading it…

It’s not clear whether you actually had all 3rd-party plugins deactivated when you were attempting to troubleshoot this issue. Just to be clear, you need to switch to the BP default theme and deactivate ALL plugins (other than BuddyPress). This means all WPMU plugins and any BP-dependent 3rd-party plugins should be deactivated.

You want to distill your install environment down to the lowest common denominator. If your setup then works without issue, you add back one plugin at a time, test, and continue that process until the issue occurs again.

Sometimes this is not sufficient, though, and you may actually have to remove all the deactivated plugins from your install. You can back them up into a temporary folder and then delete them from the /plugins/ directory (and /mu-plugins/ if you have any there).

Finally, check your server’s error logs to see if there are ANY errors being reported.

try renaming the theme folder to ‘default’

Anyone have any idea which file(s) I may be missing? All my blog pages are blank (totally white) after I deleted all the themes except those above.

I tried that and ended up with new blogs that are blank pages ….

if ( bp_is_blog_page() ) { }

I’ve seen all the BP conditional template tags, but I’m wondering what is the simplest and easiest way to tell if you are on any BP page compared to a WP page in BP 1.1?

Reason is I’d like to put this conditional in header.php so I can differentiate what is seen on a BP page.

Third time trying to post. Trying the logout/login work-around posted by Andy. Guess cookies?

I am new to this forum and to MU/BP but not to wordpress. I am flying into NYC from Fort Lauderdale on my way to Calgary, and so even though I am on a tight schedule, I would love to meetup with MU/BP developers as my next several ventures are set to explore using MU/BP extensively, developing multiple themes and plugins.

I arrive at LGA at 8:45 so I will be rolling in late, but if my cameras arrive on time I would be happy to document 1 or more sessions (as requested on this thread). Has anyone volunteered for this yet? If so/not, lets co-ordinate priorities for recording, and who is willing and able.

Lastly, since I am arriving the day-of, I will have my luggage with me. Does anyone know if the venue has a place for me to keep a few bags until the end of the first day?

Really looking forward to meeting all these bright minds working towards solutions on common problems.

Have you seen these codex articles?

• https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/conditional-template-tags/
• https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/
• https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

As for a listing of deprecated theme functions, your best bet is to look in the BuddyPress codebase, specifically in bp-core-deprecated.php (search for the string “/*** BEGIN DEPRECATED OLD BUDDYPRESS THEME SUPPORT ************/” and then also in bp-core-templatetags.php (search for the word “deprecated” and you will find a number of references).

See the codex, https://codex.buddypress.org/.

Best way to learn theme tags right now is just downloading a few buddypress themes and look at the source. Those on member blogs (if thats what you mean) applies to wpmu and has nothing to do with buddypress.

Use this site (http://wpseek.com/browse/) to look at all wordpress and wpmu functions.
