You can enable the theme-editor in the Script mu.php in wp-admin. But be carefull because users than write php-code.

For more information you can look here:

The register.php page is a BuddyPress-specific theme file that let’s you more easily customize the user registration page. It is found in the /registration/ directory of the parent theme bp-sn-parent. When it is in use, it takes over the duties from the wp-signup.php page which is a WPMU file. You can use either one, but I find it easier to use the register.php page.

Also, read this thread. The OP created a new Captcha plugin for WordPress that is compatible with version 1.1.x of BP:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/si-captcha-for-wpmu-and-buddypress#post-24383

Here’s the direct link to the plugin in the WP repo:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/

Since you have taken a WP install and turned it into a WPMU install, there would be no BP data to import from your original install. Thus, you will have no BP data when install and activate BP–other than your Admin account.

Did you search the WPMU forums for instructions?

If so, as DJPaul says, each member will have to log in before their initial BP data set is created.

I haven’t had time to update the plugin (nor my community), but running BuddyPress 1.0.3 and WordPress MU 2.8.1, it shows up below the profile field settings in the BuddyPress secion of the menu.

Perhaps something has changed which breaks the plugin, causing it to not show up at all. If so, perhaps an URL like this will help: http://yourwebsite.tld/wp-admin/admin.php?page=buddypress_stats_wrap

I’ve looked through this thread and can’t seen any reference to my particular problem I don’t think.

When I try to upload new avatars to a new WPMU+BuddyPress installation the following message is displayed:

Upload Failed! Error was: Unable to create directory /var/www/vhosts/terrywassall.org/httpdocs/blogs/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/3. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

There is a folder called:

blogs.dir 4.00 KB rwx r-x r-x Nov 6, 2009 apache apache

but it is empty and I do not have write access to it of change permissions.

Installation versions:

WordPress MU 2.8.5.2.

BuddyPress Version 1.1.2

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

PS I also get the following message when I try to upload a file (pdf so permitted type)

Unable to create directory /var/www/vhosts/terrywassall.org/httpdocs/blogs/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

I assume this is the same problem?

Hi,

I am having the same problem. I am running the latest version of Buddy Press and WordPress MU 2.8.4.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

For anyone using Another WordPress Classifieds Plugin, the above recommendations for removing the function awpcp_insert_thickbox() and the line add_action(‘wp_head’, ‘awpcp_insert_thickbox’, 10); are on target. You just need to take one additional step of going to “Image Settings” in the classifieds options and turning off the thickbox/lightbox option. At least as far as Another WordPress Classifieds Plugin is concerned this is indeed a thickbox.js conflict.

If you’re having the problem but not using AWPCP, one of your plugins might be using thickbox.js and calling it directly without using wp_enqueue_script. Or they could be using wp_enqueue_script but the placement in the page header still creates a conflict. This is just one possibility you might explore. There could be other causes.

The first time you upgraded BP from 1.0.3 to 1.1.2, did you manually upgrade or use the automatic upgrade feature of WordPress?

What I would recommend is trying this:

• Make a backup copy of your DB if you have any data worth saving
• Make a backup copy of your bb-config.php file-assuming that you had forums integrated before
• Deactivate all non-BP plugins
• Deactivate BP
• Delete the old BP files located in the /buddypress/ directory
• Temporarily remove all plugins from /plugins/–copy them to a temp folder outside your install
• Manually upload a fresh copy of BP 1.1.2 and move the contents of /buddypress/bp-themes/ into their proper place
• Remove your /wp-content/bp-themes/ directory–assuming that you have moved it back into place since your last post
• Reactivate BP
• If no error, choose and activate the new default BP theme

Does BuddyPress version 1.1.2 now work? If so, add back your other plugins and activate them.

Nicola Greco developed a series of plugins months ago that tied existing media accounts into your BuddyPress profiles, but I haven’t heard much of them as of late.

With WordPress just now starting to fill its own shoes in terms of its media library, BuddyPress won’t really start to flex those muscles until WordPress is more capable at its core.

@JJJ: Have you ever tried adding wp_enqueue_script( ‘thickbox’ ); to one of ur environments? This is what causes the upload issue on my two local installations. From what i read most plugins utilise this wordpress bundled function and i guess this could be a good starting point for further investigations.
