Before Activating, I got these errors…don’t know how to correct it. Please help!

Ok guys here is what I found may work. If you implement the two additional plugins into your site, you should never see the wp-admin page while using a buddypress site.
1. Be sure not to disable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing in Buddy Press settings. You want to link both the buddy press and word press site together
Now for the rest of the settings
2. Install Absolute Privacy
Under settings: Lockdown the site and Block admin access. For the “Redirect Non-logged in Users To:” part: enter your Login page permalink for My Login
3. Install Theme My Login
Under settings for Theme My Login: Put a 0 for Page ID and ensure the other 3 check boxes are selected, Pagelist, Links, and Stylesheet.
NOTE: In order to log out from your wordpress control panel you will need to click the link at the top left of your wordpress control panel to get back out to the buddy press site. You should still be logged in as your user in Buddy Press. Simply chose log out and viola you should not see the wp-admin. Test it out by entering a fake username/password, you should bounce back to buddypress login screen..
Same thing with the login procedure. You will need to log in through buddypress and click on “edit this entry” to get back to the wordpress control panel.
Another layer of wp-admin lockout may be to create a redirect for wp-admin and wp-admin.php
ALSO: It doesn’t seem like Buddy Press Sliding Login Plugin works with this setting so it may be wise to disable that feature. Be sure to backup, as results may vary. Proceed at your own discretion.
Same problem here. Running WP 3.0. Deactivated all my plugins and swiched to deafult WP theme before installing. I get the same message both when I upload via ftp and with a direct install through plugin search. I found this link but it didn’t really make me smarter http://hungred.com/how-to/sufficient-permissions-access-page-plugin-admin-page-update-wordpress-30/
Help please!
@govpate – check the latest version – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-secure-invites/
Which reminds to me to check out the latest update 
Btw, the code I posted above works at least in WPMU install and WPMU upgraded to WP 3.0
My opinion 96 mb minimum…if you have a lot of plugins and traffic (mine is set at 128mb).
I’m using this plugin with BP to help figure out usage and I hope it will help you too:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-memory-usage/
I just saw this under BuddyPress FAQ:
Will this work on standard WordPress and WordPress MU?
Hi,
We plan to launch many social network sites using BuddyPress with “each site on a different domain”.
Yes! BuddyPress will run on both versions of WordPress. If you are using WordPress MU then BuddyPress will support the global tracking of blogs, posts and comments.
We plan to launch “multiple” social networks using BuddyPress.
Please help with the follwoing questions:
Q1: Should we use WordPress or WordPressMU with BuddyPress?
Q2: Since we plan to launch “multiple social network websites” using BuddyPress, which one is better for our situation and why?
Q3: Will all sites be linked together if we use WordPressMU with buddyPress?
Q4: Will using WordPressMU makes it easy to manage all sites?
Q5: Will using WordPressMU allow us to de-link individual sites later and transfer to other people on different hosts or will it be a problem if we use MU?
Q6: What else should we consider when making the decision between WordPress and WordPressMU to use with BuddyPress for multiple sites?
Q7: Will it be better just to use WPMU or WP with BuddyPress only for “one” site per account?
Thank you for your time and help.
Regards,
Rick
I usually forget about these and appreciated when others posted a reminder in the forum. So, I thought I’d take a turn posting the reminder.

Hi guys, I have a similar question, although with a different source. When I click any of the by buddypress automatically created buttons on my site, I get an url with “wordpress” in between. Example: http://www.beijingbikes.com/wordpress/members
I don’t know why this is happening, because in my settings, I set http://www.beijingbikes.com as the homepage (and not http://www.beijingbikes.com/wordpress). Therefore, when I click “home” it shows an error message. Also, my webstore doesn’t add the wordpress tag, so its definately bp related. Please help!
Thanks
Ralf
Okay, so I knew about the php.ini settings in my work with WordPress. Silly me…I thought using that trick wouldn’t change the setting on 1and1, since the tech support told me that they had it set to 30 MB. Well…guess what? It worked. I set it to 128 and voila…instant BuddyPress. @UmaBlu, @techguy – you were both correct to let me know to use the php.ini setting. Thanks for that. I put the ini file in the top level, so that it sets the memory limit for all sites in the shared folder. Working just fine now. Whew!
@r-a-y nope removing the leading lash results in the same single render issue. The STYLESHEETPATH seem to be the way to do it for now and this does seem to be a WordPress issue with locate_template() so I’ll take that up over in their neck of the woods. Thx for the help, I was banging my head for over an hour.
You can try setting the memory limit via wp-config.php first:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP
If that doesn’t work, then do what techguy says.
My site has taken quite a battering over the last week or so, such that the volume of spam registrations I am receiving is causing my web server to crash.
I’ve been doing some digging regarding the spammers and found that more than one of them is using “Link Farm Evolution”, I don’t to post the URL here but if you Google you shall find!
Surely there is something illegal about this product? Is there anything WordPress or Automattic can do about this?
Your problem with locate_template could be your leading slash.
Try without and see what happens:
locate_template( array( 'library/components/buddypress/buddypress-postloop.php'), true)
locate_template() is a WordPress function, so any bug with it would be a WordPress issue.
Guys,
I have seen a lot of problems with uploading avatars. Actually I have a problem with it too.
I’m using wordpress 3.0, BP 1.2.5.2, and you can see it working here http://www.avesso.com.br/social
Avatars are uploading correctly but they aren`t showing at the pages.
I try to follow a tip that I found here about create a bp-custom.php and it does not work.
The diretories permissions are 777.
Can anyone help me?
The issue at GoDaddy shared hosting is that only so much memory is allocated to WordPress or WP/BP. On shared hosting, you aren’t going to get the performance you would on dedicated for VPS. I experienced incredibly slow load times with just WP, never mind BP on GoDaddy. I would move to a WordPress friendly host, like MediaTemple, who’s Grid Service offers up to 100 MB of php memory. You’ll need more php memory than 1and1 or GoDaddy offers in their shared packages to run BuddyPress. I’m already crapping out with Memory errors on 1and1, who won’t allot more php memory on a shared account. I’m assuming the same for GoDaddy. I’ve now moved 5 clients off GoDaddy with WordPress sites due to slow load times. They claim you should use WP-SuperCache to serve cached pages, but even then, the first time any user loads a cached page, it takes 3 to 5 seconds. From page to page to page, you’re crawling. I may be incorrect in saying that every user would experience that issue, but it could be accurate too.
Hi James,
Just set your front page as “Your latest posts”:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Reading_SubPanel
See if that works for you.
Do you have WordPress Single-User or Multi-User installed?

Hi, I see other posts about this but none specifically for my problem. Any help is appreciated. We’ve created a custom wordpress theme that has now been applied to the buddypress section of the site. The problem is that the right column side bar with the log in, activity, members, and groups is missing. How do I get those integrated into the site and which files do I need to work on? Please let me know if you need a link or a screenshot. Thanks in advance.
So As my problem about blog disappearing I read somewhere here that in WP 3.0 we should create a network for the blog to appear. and yes it did. but one problem I face. The base wordpress which my blog prior to installing the buddypress become one of the blogs of buddypress. I mean it was added to the blog directory of Buddypress i installed.
How can I remove my base wordpress installed into the blog directory?
