Here’s is mine http://blogcastor.com with a custom theme
in the buddypress_home theme css folder
try adding a direct link to style sheet in header
<link rel=\”stylesheet\” href=\”http://illdesigned.com/user/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/base.css\” type=\”text/css\” media=\”screen\” />
Jeff,
Argh… I thought that was it! 
Unfortunately upgrading to WPMU to 2.7.1 (used the automatic upgrade) didn’t work either. My custom theme has to be missing something… lol
I’m going to dig a little deeper and see if I can figure out what’s going on.
In the meantime, if any thoughts pop-up that could allow the default theme to upload avatars on signup, but not on a custom theme… shoot them at me.
Thanks for all your help…
John
You have obviously customised the theme CSS. If you have not changed the HTML or any of the layout CSS, then..
Try disabling all non-BP addons for a test. I see you are running nextgen-gallery (which I have seen cause problems before when attempted to use with BP), piclens, All in one SEO, etc.
If after disabling all those addons (so you only have WPMU+BP running) it still doesn’t work, you could try reverting to the default member theme to see if that works.
Auwagner-
I\’m running the latest WPMU (2.7)
Then you’re not running either WPMU 2.7.1-beta1 or -beta2?
If that is the case, then this is the issue. WPMU 2.7.1 has been required since BuddyPress r1303.
Fortunately, you’re in luck! WPMU 2.7.1 was just officially released this afternoon. Read this ( http://ocaoimh.ie/2009/04/21/wordpress-mu-271/ ) and get it here: https://mu.wordpress.org/download/
Jeff, thanks for responding…
1) Fairly vanilla means i have only buddypress, plus 2 other plugins. I’m running the latest WPMU (2.7)
2) Trunk is 1324
3) bp-events and eg-twitter
4) This was a fresh install of the trunk, so no upgrade. It’s an environment that I created to test things. I have moved over activate, register, plugin-sidebar and plugin-template to my new theme’s home directory, plus the 3 functions in functions.php. Is there anything else I should do for a customized HOME theme?
5) I’ve read them a ridiculous amount of times changes to htaccess, bp-core-avatars haven’t worked unfortunately
Permissions are 755 on the blogs.dir folders. I’m just combing through to see if I missed anything. I have deactivated all the plugins and i’m still looking around.
See the other thread on this, but your host is injecting ad code into the loader.php that pulls the stylesheet.
view source on:
http://illdesigned.com/user/barrymadden/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/loader.php
</iframe></noscript></object></layer></span></div></table></body></html><!-- adsok -->
<script language='javascript' src='https://a12.alphagodaddy.com/hosting_ads/gd01.js'></script>
as near as I can tell,
/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/loader.php
is not pulling the stylesheet properly. I would guess that the problem is coming from your host, as they are trying to inject an iframe into that page upon execution.

I changed all permissions from root (user/) to 755 including subfolders but sill no change.
Member Directory
* A * B * C ….
Clicking a letter doesn’t show members whose name start with it.
It just displays:
Member Listing
No members matched the current filter.
With IE6, I see buddypress the way I want to see it. Width 800px
With Firefox and Chrome I get a wider screen.
How to make the width 800px regardless of the browser used.
change all starting from root to 755 include subfolders
Ok before i posted i tester in chrome and firefox both no css however i’v now had a look in opera and ie7 and the css appears, the new beta of safari is the same as firefox and chrome and displays what’s in my screenshot above.
Can anyone help? Why does the css not display in firefox, safari and chrome?
Thanks much Wythagy that is helpful!
What version bp? I think I\’ll just put that on a hotkey combo.
Uninstall the blog component if you are talking about the various vertical menu options in the member theme.
Remove the line in the member theme /buddypress-member/header.php that looks like this:
<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_HOME_BLOG_SLUG ) ) [snip]
That\’s line 41 r1360 if you are talking about the header nav items.
Yea im using the bp home theme and changing it around to suit the style of my website.
Is it possible to display the recent posts of the main blog without the use of the widget. If that makes sense
No this isn’t solved till we find out what was wrong and how it was fixed.
I’ve spent time on this issue and just blowing it of with ‘I fixed it’ isn’t good enough. I’ve PM’ed stu-art for the source of the problem and the solution.
are you sure to have selected the right bp theme (previously called member theme) too? can i take a look on your website?

thanks for the response downloaded the rc2 update i think and still get this code:
Failed opening required ‘BP_PLUGIN_DIR/bp-core/bp-core-signup.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) on activation.
I’m def using the wpmu 2.7.1. is this the correct one yes?
I’ve seen reports of this kind of error before and couldn’t figure out why BP_PLUGIN_DIR was not defined when they are running code that looks for it’s existence. Now I think I get it.
BP_PLUGIN_DIR not being defined is a problem with that particular blog not running bp-core.php code where it’s defined. This is the code that is causing the error:
require ( BP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/bp-core/bp-core-signup.php’ );
BP_PLUGIN_DIR has to be defined before it gets to functions.php. I don’t think they can be running wpmu 2.7.1 beta and bp RC2.
Trying to run your theme on RC1 maybe?
really thanx Burt. Please Stu-art, try to overwrite your functions.php with the default functions.php of buddy press. I’ve just reuploaded the file, maybe it was corrucpted while zipping or uploading.
