I *think* this is is the right section to post this in, forgive me if I’m wrong.
I’m in a bit of an odd position; I’m trying to add BuddyPress onto an existing site rather than start a new site.
For starters, I currently run a soccer-centric (well, soccer team-centric) blog over at http://www.aishiteru-tokyo.com. I’m using the K2 theme with the “dueling sidebars” stylesheet, for those of you who keep track of such things

Starting this year I’ve started a new supporter club for the team, and in trying to figure out the best way to come up with 1) a way for club members to register and 2) a way for me to send out periodical notices to club members (and maybe have them interact with each other). BuddyPress seems like a good way to accomplish this especially since it no longer requires WordPress MU.
However, when I tried to install BuddyPress, it seemed to take over my entire site, with the menu on top of my header and all that. Since BP and my K2/dueling sidebars theme don’t seem to get along, I’m wondering if I can restrict BuddyPress to a certain “subsection” (for example, if a user clicked on the “TOKYO DAMACY 1999” button on the dropdown menu, it would bring them to the BP front page which would of course have all the information on the supporter club.
So… is this possible? How? I’m able to tinker around with HTML/CSS but I’m not really an expert. I imagine this is less a BuddyPress question and more a WordPress question, in any case.
thanks in advance!
Topic: Link is wrong
Brand new to buddypress. I’ve installed it in my wordpress and so far, have one problem. All the links are wrong.
Example: a mouse over on the links to any section in the header, I see http://judysbookshop.com/blogs/administrator/*
There is no such address. I can’t find a subdirectory called ‘administrator’ anywhere.
Can somebody help me figure this one out?
Hi,
I’m posting this in both the WP.org and BP How-To Forums as I’m not sure which one I should post in. I am building a site that runs a single version of WordPress (latest version) along with the BuddyPress plugin (which included bbPress).
As I understand it, WordPress has its own search field which searches the WordPress Blog (posts, categories, tags) and individual WP Pages.
And BuddyPress has its own search field, which searches Groups, Members, Forum Topics, and Blogs (if using WPMU).
Is there a way to add two more search fields to the drop down menu of the BuddyPress Search, to include a search function for WP Pages, and the WP main Blog.
I will have a bunch of WordPress pages that I will be using to host profiles businesses in which any user can comment upon at the bottom of the page (through WP comments). So the WP Pages are like their own section which is why I would like to have a separate search category for them.
This might not be possible to separate the WP Blog and WP Pages while performing a WordPress search. But at the very least it would be nice to have the BuddyPress Search menu also include a search category for all of WordPress.
I came across the customized Google Site Search in another post, but that isn’t exactly what I’m looking for since you can’t search within specific categories.
so, any help would be great. I look forward to hearing what options there are.
Thanks.

I just installed WordPress 2.9.2 and BuddyPress 1.2.2 on a fresh VPS. Everything is working fine except that when BuddyPress is enabled the page is extremely slow to load (not so with just WordPress).
I have attempted to diagnose the problem with Firebug, and have found that there is a 7 – 15 second wait time after the first load request is sent and when my browser finally receives a response. I have not encountered any errors, and everything loads in a reasonable amount of time after that point (another 5 seconds or so).
Non-Wordpress pages and WordPress pages with BuddyPress disabled load quickly (7 seconds or less in total).
Has anyone else encountered this? I found a single thread with a google search, but the suggested fixes did not solve my problems. I don’t believe this to be a lack of RAM issue.
Please help!
Thanks,

Hi all
First off a HUGE thumbs up to all involved in the BuddyPress project – it’s a phenomenal development & we’re loving it!
I have just upgraded our single user installation (running on WP 2.9.2) to BP 1.2.2. We are using the BP-Default theme.
The reason I rushed into the upgrade was to implement the new member email activation fix as mentioned in the change log (Fixed inconsistencies with new account activation between WordPress MU and standard WP. All new accounts must now be activated to confirm a valid email is being used.)
However two test registrations, using different email addresses (both tested as valid) produced no email activation messages. Am I missing a setting somewhere that needs to be in place in order to achieve this feature on a single installation site?
Secondly – is there a way to implement a redirect or a message of some sort to users who have registered but not yet activated their account? At the moment, trying to login with one of the new not activated accounts simple sends the user back to the home page. Something along the lines of a “Your account still needs to be activated, please follow the instructions in the email sent to your address”.
And finally – if 1 and 2 above are solvable, would the addition of a “resend activation email” link somewhere be out of the question as a further enhancement to the system?
Both these test accounts are passed to the WP user list and appear under the users settings in the admin dashboard as expected.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
P.S. System emails are still being sent without problems – received email notification of a private message from the site so don’t think that’s a problem.
Hi all,
I just updated from BuddyPress 1.2.1 to 1.2.2, using single WordPress 2.9.2 & no longer receive any user registration emails.
Also new users aren’t getting their account activation emails.
Anyone else have this issue?
