when i click on the logout link in bp, it points to: (sorry i don’t know how to insert code)
after clicking, in the left column of the bp theme i read something like: “sorry, this page can’t be found”, and the user remains logged in.
For logging out, users should enter the wpmu backend and logging out from there: (sorry i don’t know how to insert code)`
I’ve installed the 1.02b combo version, and i’ve just tried downloading the last svn version of the functions.php for the buddy press home theme, but it still does not work
On my sites, I simply have a 404 file in my themes which is actually a redirect to where ever I’d like it to go:
<?php
// Permanent redirection
header(“HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently”);
header(“Location: http://yourdomain.com”);
exit();
?>
Simply copy and paste the above into your 404.php file for your theme, and you’re set!
Hi again.
I didn’t realize that it was the “sub-blogs” that you we’re talking about when I posted but now I know what you mean.
That kind of functionality is usually handled by widgets but perhaps it’s hard coded into the theme. Are they there no matter what theme you use?
As for the avatars, I’m not sure I’m on the right track to be honest now that I’ve done some digging. The path for your avatars (http://mobiusmanitou.com//avatars/4/alien20-avatar1.jpg) is not even close to the one on my setup (http://komiformguiden.se/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/3/elder_sign_small-avatar1.jpg).
Why those differ I have no real clue to though. Perhaps Trent, Burt or Andy can chime in on that.
What is the exact problem you get? In what way doesn’t the logout URL work?
As Andy mentions in the sticky post about the new beta you need to update your themes with the latest code as well (functions.php IIRC).
Now http://wikiroma.it has got the social BP community: http://wikiroma.it/index.php . I will work more to customize more my theme in these days.
Hi.
As for nr 1 I don’t follow. The WPMU user name field is for logging in to the site. The bp full name field is used everywhere else in bp whenever a user is referenced. So they shouldn’t ever “overwrite” eachother.
At least this is how it works for me.
2) Are you using the latest beta build (or trunk)? If you mix and match releases these redirect errors can and will occur. I had them myslef until I installed the latest version of the bp theme.
@kazama: What Andy said above, update your “buddypress-home” theme to the latest version and it will solve your problems (it did for me).
maxaud, the function that does the work in bp is groups_send_invites() and it lives in bp-groups.php, line 1642.
function groups_send_invites( $group_obj ) {
global $bp;
This function serves both the group creation ‘send invites’ and the member theme ‘send invites’ in the group screen.
I’d put a return; statement right under that global $bp; statement. Users can flip all the switches they want but nothing will actually happen. The users will still see the capability but nothing will work.
Lemme test this to make sure…
No notification emails are actually sent. The screen says it did but it didn’t. The notification message “Group invites sent” isn’t part of that function you will be bypassing.
I had this exact same error. I realised that I had put the member-themes folder in wp-content/themes instead of directly into wp-content. Works fine now.
Ok, I’ll throw my hat into the ring…
As for now I’m running a standard bp theme site on WPMU 2.7 and bp 1.0b2 that I’m gradually translating to Swedish (55% there). For the non-swedes here it’s a community for people working out.
I’ve semi-launched it a couple of weeks ago so there’s just a few users but the site will stay intact so if you’re A) Swedish and 
working out feel free to join. 
Go look-see: http://komiformguiden.se
Thanks Burt – I liked that insight into your thought process. 
And, FWIW, the last tip is the correct one; remove the “default” WP MU theme folder, rename the folder with your choosen default theme to “default” and all new blogs will get this theme.
@burtadsit and kapil.bp,
I was searching for an answer of adding (or subtracting) main nav buttons, and came across this post. Very helpful and led me right to an interim answer. So, thank you.
However, if a hard code nav changes into bp-core-templatetags.php, then I would be sorry when upgrading if I wasn’t paying attention. So, this prompts my next question, is there no dynamic way to add (or hide) nav buttons? Of course there’s always a way, but one that exists?
Maybe this could be accomplished by adding a nav options section to the BuddyPress home theme? Or a BuddyPress-specific nav plugin?
Any takers?
In wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/base.css remove the max-width attribute from the body (line 37 currently).
1) Permissions are fine.
2) What about the fact that the path doesn’t exist?
/wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php
This isn’t even a location! Do I need to redefine a function or something?
Make sure the permissions are set to 644.

It looks like we all need to get some themes going on here
ok, I have noticed something that I can not explain. When I use the defautl theme the signup works fine. However when I use the custom theme and it calls up wp-signup.php the “Name” field is missing on the signup page. Any idea why that is happening? It hink its related somehow.
wow, just put that in…………. that unfortunately did not work. The Buddypress bar is still on all pages for “LOGGED IN” users. I basically NEVER want it to appear except in the actual Buddypress User Theme, not the home theme at all.
This functionality should really be built in.
ok, i tried all that……nothing. This is crazy. Want to take a look at all the files in the theme? Maybe you will see something that I am missing…trust me this would not be impossible. I am really not even close to being an expert on this. I can zip them and send them over let me know.
pulled all the plugins…..made no difference, still have the error (and the plugins were all there and activated with the other theme I tried that worked fine).
I hear you. Wow, I am at a total loss with this. I really changed only cosmetic things in the theme, and nothing to do with the core functionality. I am not sure where to even start on this. I am speechless. This sucks. Thanks for all the assistance. Most of the MODS I did were to the actual files (PHP) and I am not sure if I can pull them all. Any idea what would be the best place to start looking? What area of the theme would you start in…which php file? The odd thing is it pulls up the sign up page correctly so its good until that point, but that file is not in the theme, and then it all goes bad from there. This really does not make any sense to me at all.
i see that. it’s strange that it worked PERFECTLY in the MU 2.6/BP 1.0 setup…perfectly. I haven’t changed anything in the theme since then, just upgraded MU and BP. Therefore something that changed in MU or BP has pissed my theme off, but I can’t possibly know all the changes that were made that pertain to this issue, I really am a novice at this whole deal. Any help is appreciated, if I can just get past this I’m all good. I fixed all the other issues I had….. so far. Not even sure where to start looking. I really did not change too much as far as functionality at all. I spent countless hours modifying the theme so I cant scrap it all and start over now!!!! LOL. thanks.
Thanks.
the theme thats there now is the original MU Default theme that comes with MU 2.7…I activated it to test the signup process and it worked fine. I will put the custom theme back up and see what happens
ok same problem
Was that the theme you modified? If so what were the modifications?
We need to narrow this down further. Make a copy of the custom theme you’ve created. Save it someplace. Wipe the directory /wp-content/themes/home. That’s where the theme labeled “WordPress mu Homepage” is located. I’m guessing you modified that one. Upload a fresh copy of that directory to the server. No mods nothing. Right out of the download zip. Activate that theme and then see if you get the error.
