There’s a reason why the embed and object tags are disabled by default, Peter.
If you’re going to open up your BP network to any user, they can potentially exploit those tags and do all kinds of nasty stuff.
The Unfiltered MU plugin works for admins and editors in WordPress, but it depends what BP component you’re trying to use the embed/object tags in BP.
Burt’s solution is the preferred method.
When I accept a friend, it just sits there for at least 30 seconds or so. Although it does eventually work. I noticed something similar when inviting friends to a group or event.
Buddypress 1.0.3, WordPress MU 2.8.3
http://sunysb.net
Hello. I’m a newbie and just created a test site up with buddypress/wordpress/bbpress. Everything looks good. I installed this plugin and followed the directions. However, when I activate it, I get this error:
Fatal error: Class ‘BP_Group_Extension’ not found in /home/ieconnec/public_html/isocal/wp-content/plugins/bp-groupblog/bp-groupblog-classes.php on line 105
I’m running buddypress 1.0.3 and wordpress mu 2.8.4a. Any help you can provide will be much appreciated. I would like to be able to use this plugin.
This is probably a stupid question but how do I actually create a group in Buddypress? When I go to site.com/groups, all I see “groups a-z, featured groups, and find groups” but no link to actually create a group. Same when I go to member profiles under the ‘groups’ tab – it just says no groups found because obviously there isn’t one because I can’t find the link to do so. The same occurs in my WordPress MU dashboard. So where’s the link? How can I insert one into my template? Please let me know. Thank you.
Here is the actual link: click
I’m trying to build a homepage that contains pretty much what WordPress.com does in that it will have posts from a variety of different blogs as well as stats information such as e.g. The best of 115,585 bloggers, 143,859 new posts, 262,715 comments, & 37,289,150 words today on WordPress.com.
I’ve looked around, but all I have seen are plugins and widgets, is their a ‘PROPER’ way to get posts from your blogs on the home page, whereby I can control which content goes where, so for example I can choose blog2 and display the last 5 posts from it in a place I desire. Thanks
Hi Guys
Sorry to come back to this after a while but, its literally just the name change of the domain Im wanting. Fortunately nothing like the location of the database or folder names etc are changing, so Im ok just to use Jeff’s recommendation and do the domain part of the Changing site url?
Cheers

The auto upgrader is not working in WPMU 2.8.2. Here is a fix: http://ocaoimh.ie/wordpress-mu-2-8-3/
Well the development version is here http://paperviewzine.com/blog/ but the problem I am having is that WordPress is treating both the home page and the blog as HOME so when I use is_home() it is conditioning both.
How do I create the archives, and how I create the proper titles for the sections so for example: MY SITE — BLOG — TITLE or MY SITE — BLOG — ARCHIVES
I don’t want to use built-in functions, rather I want to code the titles myself.
Also how do I get the feeds to link to the blog? having the url as /feed/ to the root site is misleading when it is the blog feed and NOT a site-wide feed.
Hi Guys!
I’m also having 2 niggling issues with this plugin. 1) If I’m logged out of wordpress AND bbpress, and I log into bbpress, the buddybar doesn’t change from the logged out status. If I click the login link on the buddybar through the forums and log in, it redirects me back to the blog homepage, not the page I clicked from.
Here’s what I’m running…
WPMU 2.8.2
Buddypress 1.0.3
bbPress 1.0.1
Thanks!
Thank you for supporting it. I will try to complete it soon. When you have resolved your problems private.
But now you can download to try and test home

Hi,
I am really new to the whole buddypress/wordpress-mu scene, but have a quick question.
Would it be possible for my to add a simple anchor link to the adminbar without editing the core code?
Getting out of a fix:
If you’ve tried updating Buddypress, but forgotten to update WordPressMU first of all… you are now facing the “Fatal error: Class ‘WP_Widget’ not found”.
You’ll also find, you can’t rewind your buddypress upgrade, and can’t update wordpress from the dashboard. You are stuck!
You could reach for your backup, but if like me, you got lazy and didn’t backup… you’ll be really pleased to know this link to a manual update process works, and you won’t lose any of your lovely data:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WPMU#2.7.1_to_2.8.3
The steps for 2.8.3 also work for 2.8.4a
Hey Guys
This sounds similar to my problem. I have been trying to set up groups for a while now with no luck. Groups haven’t worked from install, which was something I though would clear up as I proceeded with integration, but no go.
http://5planes.mistermachine.com/network/
It looks the page is trying to load an incorrect ajax url. It seems to be adding extra sub-directory to the path name.
http://5planes.mistermachine.com/network/network/
I checked and rechecked the wp-config file with no luck.
Attempts to add new profile information also seems to error out.
Other than these two errors the rest of the site works great! If anyone can help that would be great.
BuddyPress 1.03 and WordPress MU 2.8.4a and bbPress 1.0
I need to do something similar. I have two domains (sunysb.net and sbulife.com) where sunysb.net is the domain I use for buddypress, and sbulife.com redirects to it. Normally, I would park sbulife.com on sunysb.net and the end user wouldn’t know the difference, but with the subdomain rewrite rules, it really screws up wordpress mu.
Hi,
I spent a full weekend to create a new wordpress theme!
It’s named Buddytran Beta 1!
Or watch the demo here!
With the Beta 1 version, you can download it for free. It’s not
perfect, I think. Currently, I am a little busy working to earn 100
usd to pay my tuition so I don’t have much time for this. I am living
in Vietnam. I would like to invite those interested in the theme join
me to finish it.
Me email is: wpviet@gmail.com
If I use deep integration:
Something like this:
if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) & !defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ )) {
define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false );
//
// You will need to get the ABSOLUTE path to this file |
// \|/
include_once( ‘/your/absolute/path/to/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’ );
header( “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” );
header( “Status: 200 All rosy” );
}
I get this error:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class IXR_IntrospectionServer in /data/wwwcust/sv3-4/html/forum/bb-includes/backpress/class.ixr.php on line 873
Without deep integration BuddyPress Groups for bbPress (0.36) is working properly.
But I need deep integration and keep the hidden forms from public.
I need this for a plugin/function. I can’t figure out how to do anything with the user_email during activation. When I do this:
function synchro_wp_usermeta($user_id, $password, $meta) {
global $bp, $wpdb;
$email = $wpdb->query("SELECT user_email FROM wp_users WHERE ID='$user_id'");
echo $email;
...
}
add_action( 'wpmu_activate_user', 'synchro_wp_usermeta', 10, 3);
I only get the number ‘1’. I have no clue why. I’m clearly missing something obvious.
If I can’t select the user_email on $user_id, how? The query works fine directly in the database. Do I need to change something in the PHP/Wordpress tagging system?
Please help me out. I’ve been horribly stuck on this for the last 24 hours… 
EDIT: Sorry, figured it out. Should have studied the codex. This works:
$email = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT user_email FROM $wpdb->users WHERE ID='$user_id'");
echo $email;
But I still don’t get why simply $user_email doesn’t work in that function…
Hi Jeff- sorry for the missed information. Apologies! I agree I don’t think it’s buddypress issue but I thought someone in the forum would be aware of similar problem whereby a form won’t work under IE6/7.
I have installed the latest version of MU (WordPress MU 2.8.4) and the latest version of Buddypress. I also admit I have many plugins. wp-greet works fine with all the variations of WP/WPMU/Buddypress… seen them in action but for whatever reason IE6/7 just wont do it on my end. Thanks.
First of all, we do not have sufficient information to offer the best resolution to your issue.
We have no idea what versions of WPMU and BuddyPress you’re running. Are you running WPMU or single-user WordPress? What other plugins do you have installed?
The plugin does not indicated that it works with WPMU and it is only updated to WP 2.7.1. Perhaps that is part of the problem.
I’m setting this to “not a support question” as this seems more like a WP issue and not a BuddyPress issue. Also, I’m moving it to the proper forum, “Third Party Components & Plugins”.
Hi: I installed a plugin called wp-greet (http://www.tuxlog.de/wordpress/2008/wp-greet-documentation-english/) – the plugin works great on all browsers except IE 6 and 7. Strangly the plugin designers and others have no problem with IE compatibility and so I seem to be the only one having a problem. Essentially the “preview – send – reset” buttons are not responsive both before and after I installed spam protection. The link to the page is http://tatazara.com/cards/
Thanks for any feedback

I have installed wordpress MU 2.8.4, buddypress 1.0.3 & bbpress 1.0.2 integration without problems.
But I have a problem when I insert accents in Spanish you can see it in…
http://profesionales.net/groups/construccion/forum/topic/3
If I insert an accent like “más” the forum show “m�s”
This problem is only in the buddypress forum, in the blogs all is OK.
¿¿ can someone help me ??
there are several themes such as P2 and Prologue that offer front page posting.You can use TDO forms to have a form on the front page to post.I dont know if it works with mu..give it a try.
What i tried to point is that you can use the same technique in your themes, so as to avoid users to log into wordpress panel.
This can be done like this
if( user is blog owner) -> show the quickpress code (you can copy the quickpress code from the P2 or Prologue theme)
else
show the comments form
its the basic logic.I am working with my initial setup,i thought to implement this later when i am finished with my setup
Ok, I have a main blog (blog id 1), which I use it for news purposes. So I created a new blog at wall.mysite.com subdomain and activated p2 theme.
I uploaded bp-community-blogs plugin (big thanks to Burt) from
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-community-blogs/ and activated it in the wall.mysite.com blog account.
It is working as I want but the only problem is that when members enter the page first time the post box (from post-form.php) does not appear, it appears when they refresh the page or re-enter.
How can this be solved? Any ideas?
I’ve never heard of Flutter. But the link you provided to the Flutter plugin on the WP plugin repo appears to be for the single-user verison of WordPress and not for WPMU. That could be the issue.
Also, if you visit the homepage for the company that created Flutter, there is a link at the bottom to an alpha version for Mu.
I’m changing this to “not a support question” as you are having issues caused by a 3rd-party plugin (and one that is not supposed to work with WPMU at that) and it has nothing to do with BuddyPress not functioning properly. I’m also moving this to the “Third Party Components & Plugins” forum and out of the “How-To and Troubleshooting” forum.

I recently installed both Buddypress (v1.0.3.) and Flutter (v.1.1) onto a fresh install of WPMU (v2.8.4a).
When both of the plugins are activated, the image cropping feature of Buddypress does not work under the admin account – the cropping area does not even show up.
This only happens on the admin accounts and all other users are still able to crop images with no problems.
Does anyone have any idea what the conflict may be and/or how to rectify it?
Note: I have also asked this question on the Flutter support site but it doesn’t appear to be very active and I have not recieved any response.
Thanks in advance for any help.
