BuddyPress.org

Is anyone having issues with any conflicts with the Vote it up plugin and buddy links..?

As far as I know it’s been taken out of WPMU.

Read this, https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/1857.

Sorry, this is the same issue that is bugging me,

1. Is it to say that I redirect the wp signup to register, the problem would be solved?

2. Would it affect the other plugins I have install under wordpress mu?

by the way I am using wpmu 2.8.5a

You can also use the following jQuery technique to put the buddybar in any application: http://teleogistic.net/2009/10/displaying-the-buddypress-admin-bar-in-other-applications/. It’s probably overkill if you’ve only got a single page (since Xevo’s method is so much more straightforward) but it’s nice if you’re trying to integrate another entire program.

A long while ago, Burt Adsit wrote https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-community-blogs/ . I still use this plugin although I couldn’t tell you the last time Burt updated it. he has been awol lately. It still works as it doesn’t appear to be too dependent on the BP framework. For me, I have a blog I use as an “announcements” tool i.e. all registered users can write announcements which get displayed on a widget. So the plugin auto-registers each user to that blog as an “author”. Sounds like this is what you are looking for. Hope this helps.

You can make custom pages inside of buddypress.

@Bowe

Wordpress /buddypress does not do anything special to images.By default the avatars are saved as square(same height and width),so if you keep the ratio,the image looks good as it gets scaled down by css,otherwise say you make the height and width different ,It gets stretched.just for clarification

hi there

well,so your subdomain style issue is solved.

For the random non existing subdomain behavior is expected by wpmu.since you are using buddypress default theme ,so you will not be able to see wp-signup.php and it is one of the most discussed topic here in forum.just search it.

If you are trying to create forums (as you may be thinking of standalone forum in bbpress),this is not implemented in that way in buddypress.In buddypress ,the bbpress (internal integration) is used for creating forums with groups and they do not have a separate admin.You can enable forum from group admin screen for a particular group.

As far as I know and my experiences with shared hosting,you won’t be able to install wordpress mu on addon domains.If you are able to install wpmu on addon domain ,then buddypress should work without any problem.

@Xevo.. that’s true.. But it seems that wordpress/buddypress does something special when you resize using .css.. the avatar actually gets loaded in the size you specify in the .css… if you view the image it’s the same size (so not the original size of the image which gives bad results quality/data wise)

Should be fixed.

I should just remind myself to check this site each time I need something…
