Ok the saga continues. I turned on the bp home theme and now I see that I don’t have any members. Am I not a member? I can play in my profile. I created a new wpmu blog under a new username ‘becky’. becky can edit her profile but her blog doesn’t show up under ‘my blogs’. This is driving me nuts.
becky can create a blog through bp and it shows up in ‘my blogs’. Let me guess. I’m missing something. Am I the only one who doesn’t get this bp behavior? becky is the admin of both blogs in wpmu. wpmu is happy with becky.
Since becky created a blog through bp, bp is now happy with becky. She’s a member now in the listing.
I created a blog as admin in wpmu. My new wpmu created blog shows up in ‘my-blogs’ but becky’s didn’t. bp still doesn’t seem to think I’m a member even though it likes my newly created wpmu blog.
(sigh)
On another note if I try to access mysite.org/members I get a little notification screen that tells me I need to put plugin-template.php and plugin-sidebar.php into my theme dir. I found these in the buddypress-home dir. Putting these in the appropriate theme folder gets rid of the error msg but doesn’t get me anything.
All I get is a wp page with the permalink mysite.org/membership
Once again, changing my permalink from mysite.org/membership to ‘registering-and-membership’ solves the prob. Now I get the member directory wonderfully sandwiched between my theme header and footer. However, it still says 404 in the FF tab and no actual members are listed. I get the abc’s, search box and a h2 Members title header. Nothing else. I’m gonna turn on the bp home theme and see what havoc I can cause with that.
Is this a blown regex in wpmu .htaccess rewrite rules or bp hijacking behavior? I haven’t modded the .htaccess rewrite rules at all. It’s exactly what wpmu installs.
Glad you showed up so early?
There is something flaky going on with the bp URI hijacking. I had a page with the permalink http://ourcommoninterest.org/groups
Installed bp trunk 504 and when I select Groups from the member dropdown or from the bp member theme selection Groups, which is http://ourcommoninterest.org/members/admin/groups
Selecting either of those gets my Groups page in wpmu. Changing the page permalink to something else solves this.
Hmm….never really thought about that since I was thinking any plugin would apply to all the themes, but using the right template calls if the statements would work really well wouldn’t it. Thanks for the tip Ron. Usually the simplest solution is right in front of you

You could write a small plugin that used the login_head action. You could put something on the querystring that the plugin would looks for.
Check the permissions on your theme directories they should be 755
I just downloaded a fresh copy of WPMU 2.6.3, the latest BuddyPress trunk and did a fresh subdirectory installation. It all worked fine, no missing function errors.
Are you absolutely sure you have all the latest files and everything installed correctly via the readme? This includes the latest themes – you MUST update the themes too.
yea did that but it just shows site with out stylesheet
Only activate the home theme for the main blog, you don’t need to activate the member theme.
TO resolve this all you should have to do is create a copy of your index.php file, rename it home.php, and upload it to your theme folder and it should work.
I had the same issue when upgrading last night. I think BuddyPress requires there to be a home.php file and once you do what I outlined above everything should be normal.
Andy posted here asking for help with fixing the IE6/7 problems with the Buddypress themes.
TestBP is using the new home theme that is part of the BuddyPress install. The items, account, groups, etc, are all widgets that you can place wherever you need them.
my mistake was that i uploaded all files in plugin directory .. i forgot to put the theme in the themes directory.. once you do that, the current theme of buddypress shows up..
regardless, even after that there are bugs like https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=141 and https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=97 which need to be sorted out
Now i dont understand whats wrong but if you see http://www.mcas.in then the whole code has a lot of bugs
EG : When you click on add as friend .. you get error
Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘bp_core_referer’ was given in /home/mcasin/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 163

Just for the sake of being positive I have deleted and re-uploaded the themes from trunk 462 and there is no change? I just don’t understand.
I’m not using the home theme either, although I do have it in the proper folder. Have you replaced all the files with the latest from the trunk?
Thank you nadiamode for sharing. It seems there is no difference between yours and mine. Creede I updated my themes so I am very confused now?!?!?
Does anyone know why I would be getting a 200 error?
Without a trailing slash my website reads as though it is a different address. If someone can give me an idea, I would appreciate it. Actually, I am kinda shocked that I am the only one with this problem, doesn’t anyone else have this problem? My mu wordpress is standard. The only difference I can think is that I am not using the buddypress-home theme?
Looks like I forgot to update my buddypress-home and buddypress-member themes. It’s all better now.
I’ll help as well. In fact I said I’d look at the whole of both themes with a view to making them more modular and easy to style. That will include IE fixes, microformats etc.
I just need time…
I think there needs to be an is_page() check done before the URL hijacking takes place. Can you submit a ticket for this at: https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket (wp.org support forum login creds)
ok – I’m a moron – I figured it out – what I did was renamed(despite the big, bold warning in the theme install.txt) the buddypress-home folder to ‘home’ rather than leaving it as buddypress-home and completely removing the home directory. Now all looks good and I can start to ‘play’. Thanks to all that responded and I promise to read the instructions more carefully before future posts.
ok – I have the ‘BuddyPress Home Theme 0.1’ activated and I’ve added all of the available widgets to ‘Sidebar 1′(which is the only option available in the dropdown and I also do not see any plugins available but I believe that is by design as, per a prior post, all plugins are automatically on and won’t show under plugins and all I’m still seeing on the home page is the standard bp header, the bp logo and a ‘This is a WordPress MU + BuddyPress powered site’ at at the top and a ‘This is just a placeholder theme, eventually you will be able to make this an aggregation of site content, or a site blog’ message in the footer. Is there a newer version or am I still missing something? Again, any help would be appreciated – I really want to be able to fully eval this app but it’s starting to get a bit frustrating.
are all the sections on the bp theme home page (recent blogs, who’s online?, etc…) only allowed to be added in as widgets or can you implement them by using template tags?
I still have problems I re-downloaded 431 and installed everything; buddypress new themes and muplugins. However when I look at the avatar I upload I get the following:
http://famous.tm/wp-content/blogs.dir/382/files//2008/10/famous-square3-avatar1.jpg
files//2008 The only reason I said a directory issue is cause the // between files and 2008 looks peculiar.
And I still have the same problem with trying to sign up as member lengsh has confirmed.
Do you have an idea of what it could be?
C’mon Andy, I was just about to overtake myspace… 
haha!
I don’t think that is the problem. Have you updated all files, included the themes? The theme names have changed.
