Topic: enable theme 1.2 sitewide
How do I enable the new theme sitewide in mu wordpress? I tried creating a child theme putting it in the themes directory and naming it default, however the blogs just show up with a blank page. How can I get 200+ blogs to show up with the same theme (bp-default)?
I’ve got this (see below), but it won’t show up through the blogs. I think I have to manually click activate. I don’t want to do that for 200+ blogs. Any ideas?
/*
THEME NAME: WordPress Default
THEME URI: http://me.com/
DESCRIPTION: My Blog Page
VERSION: 1.2
AUTHOR:
AUTHOR URI:
Template: bp-default
*/
/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url(../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css);
/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url(../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css);
I am using the latest version of wordpress, 2.9.2.
when i active the budypress plugin, 1.2 all i get is a white page and no access to the rest of the control panel, i then have to delete the plugin to regain access.
i have also tried the template plugin to make sure that my custom theme will work with the plugin, but again still no luck.
any ideas would be great
I’m making a new custom theme from the default 1.2 theme and I have run up against a display problem on the groups directory page. I have some odd “bullet points” that seem to be throwing off the design. Everything is getting pushed to the right. You can see the page here:

Can anybody tell me what the problem is here?
I am working with WordPress MU 2.9.1.1 and the display error is showing up in IE8 and Firefox 5.0. I tried checking the elements with Firebug and I could not find anything wrong.
I am trying to using spyker theme on on my wordpress blog, http://thenateums.com
It is having some issue with theme and I think some buddypress file.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_get_nav() in/home/nateums/public_html/wp-content/themes/Spyker/inc/userbar.php on line 3
I think it might be the new version of buddypress but im not sure… any hints/tips?

Topic: remove/modify copyright text
Hello
can I remove or modify the copyright text in the footer:
…is proudly powered by WordPress and BuddyPress
I would like to have like here without proudly its otherwise to long
Now I have a suggesstion for Andy and the team, possibly off the wall and out the box…
Buddypress and WordPress are designed for different user contexts…
Why doesnt you look into have a special fork of WPMU tailored for BP developed. This version can include BP in its core and also have new look and feel backend, as well as front end widgets that allow most of the sites user interaction to take place from the front end
There can still be a backend for users which will allow them to customize their space on the site unlike facebook where you are stuck with the ugly vanilla theme all the time. The user backend will only be for really critical and tech savvy tasks and most users could get away with never using it if they don’t want to because of having all the user infterface components like creating pages and posts etc in the front end or in the users “admin bar” ala facebook.
The reason why I am suggesting this is because people tend to be happy with what they are familiar with. WordPress and WPMU are blogging tools and aren’t really aimed at internet noobs. Thats fine because if you want to setup a blog you are most likely more than just a casual or internet noob and you will have no problem finding your way around the WordPress backend. On the other hand for a lot of people it seems to technical and involved and they would prefer the simpler interaface of facebook that they are used to.
I have tried to get some people at a student society at my university to use their own blog and domain using a combo of Joomla and WordPress for the blogging component but they lost interest and instead created a group on facebook which everyone flocks around.
To summarise, since buddypress is aimed at a different kind of user than WordPress ie its for social networking, the casual social user might be put off or struggle with the complexities of WP, so instead of merely inheriting the way in which WP works, what about adapting a WP to make it more suitable for social networking and make it a more attractive platform for micro communities.
Good idea, stupid idea? what do you guys think
Buddypress 1.2 and WordPressMU 2.9.1
In my Buddypress child theme, I want to have different CSS for different sections like the Member profile. Perhaps I want to have a slightly different head graphic as well.
I have copied the header.php to my child theme and have attempted to use if statements along with Template tags but to no effect.
<?php if( bp_is_front_page() ){ ?>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='wp-content/themes/coffeehouse/large-masthead.css' type='text/css' media='screen' />
<?php } ?>
<?php if(bp_is_group_members() ){ ?>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='../wp-content/themes/coffeehouse/large-masthead.css' type='text/css' media='screen' />
<?php } ?>
Not showing post or page comments anymore. How do I get these to display again?
I have the recent comments widget – which shows the existing comments, but when you click through to the page or post the comment is on – they are not there.
You are using WordPress MU 2.9.1.
