Can not add WordPress MU password in bbpress “WordPress integration” Step 2.
Problem when installing bbpress 1.0 with WordPress MU 2.7.1 and Buddy Press 1.0.1 is when I get to step 2 during in the installation of bbpress 1.0 “wordpress integration”. I can add in all the database informatino however the password input area is missing for inserting the database password. I have tried to skip this step however when I go into bbpress settings and add in all the information, when this step is completed there is no “Admin settings” inside bbpress (this is missing although I am logged in with “admin”.
Does anyone have any ideas to fix this problem?
Hi Mike,
Thanks for the reply. I will check out your comparison.
I have quite a bit experience with Links.com using WordPress, and there is no question that spam is going to become a major problem unless I clamp down early on. The current plugins are inadequate for a social networking site on my domain. The last thing I want is to appear on some blacklist list. It has already happened once and it was a huge effort clearing thing up.
Thanks again for your response.

here’s another link that might help you out with the basics…

Hi everyone,
I am the registered owner of the domain Links.com.
For some time, I have been looking for some good community software that I can run on it, but I have rejected everything I have come across, because of on-going maintenance issues, both with the software and the community comments.
Before, I consider the subject matter, I want to make sure that I will not have major headaches that will interrupt by rather quiet retirement. So I have two basic questions:
1) How good is BuddyPress right now at quashing spam comments and links. It is imperative, that I keep this to zero, just as I have on my WordPress blog that exists on my site at this time. Right now, on WP, I am using Akismet and WP-Spam, as well as moderation on any comment that contains a link.
2) Are there developers available that can enhance spam protection for me. I would like to include plugins that will eat any post that contains blacklisted words, compare any links in a post to the urls that appear in the Google Safe Browsing API database (I have working PHP code that does this for another app I developed), and also compare and reject any post that has links on the urlblacklist.com database or comparable (I also have working code for this).
If I can be comfortable that I will not have to go around with a fly swatter deleting nasty posts and comments, I think I can go ahead and look over the software further.
Thanks for the help.

I PMed back stating:
I would reinstall both theme directories. It looks like there is something missing.
So, copy over a new copy of bphome into /wp-content/themes/
Then copy over a new copy of bpmember into /wp-content/bp-themes/
He PMed back this to which I said let’s continue this is the forum:
I reinstall but it's not working
i have this problem with all BuddyPress themes
facebuddy
shouty
solitude-theme
bpskeletonmember
the home page it's good
@jacoby – I experienced similar cookie issues with brain broken and the trunk – got it working by deleting cookiepath and hash and deleting existing cookies- https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cookie-integration-problem-wp28-bb-10-rc-2 but since this is about lighttpd I’m sure that hempworth’s problem is the lack of mod_rewrite and this may help – https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/1961
I was able to navigate to /register and the rest of the BuddyPress links just fine. Looks like you got this figured out?
I have an empty Forums page created on my blog yet it still doesn’t let me through. Again, I’m no expert. I’ll keep surfing the FAQs.
I’ve just reinstalled Mu 2.7.1 and Buddypress 1.01 again and this time I can select the bpmember theme from within Mu Admin under Buddypress settings. However, I cannot post from any buddypress field. Every buddypress post action seems to be undefined as wp_explain_nonce is being called.
I can still perform any post action with WordPress Mu.
Regarding installing bbPress, you will probably need to create a page in your primary blog with the slug of “forums” before WordPress will allow access to it.
If you’re new to BuddyPress then chances are you haven’t been down this road before, but I’d advise you to check out some of the stickies and FAQ’s here and spend some time getting educated on all the subtle nuances.
This question has been answered quite a few times, so I’ll give you a hint and if you still can’t figure it out, come back and we’ll see what we can do.
HINT: Check the functions.php included in wp-content/themes/bphome/ and compare it to the functions.php in the theme you're trying to use.
Sorry for the continuous posts. I just tried to add the bbpress into the site. I unzipped it on the server, renamed folder to /forums and when I type it in, it says site doesn’t exist…something that didn’t occur before WordPress Mu/Buddypress.
By the way, my site is:

The Register function does not work with the theme I am trying to incorporate which is Old School, which uses Hybrid. It does work with Elegant Grunge.
Hey:
I just began work on a WordPress Mu/Buddypress site. This came as a suggestion from a friend when I asked how to combine a Ning site and a WordPress site on same subjects. Right now, I’m trying to get everything working yet have several questions.
1) New users cannot register. It says /register does not exist…the option for new user registration is enabled.
2) How can I make all the site, including the Buddypress aspect to use same theme?
3) Is there a way to create events on Buddypress?
Well this is what I get in the list:
WordPress Classic (1.5)
WordPress mu Default (1.6)
WordPress mu Homepage (1.6)
Are you sure that you’re looking in the proper spot? The theme list you provided is what you see when you go to “Site admin > Themes”. These are the themes from which you can choose your home theme.
To choose your member theme, you need to go to the BuddyPress menu grouping all the way down at the bottom of the menu column. So, as Burt indicated, you would go to “BuddyPress > General Settings > Select theme to use for BuddyPress generated pages”.
You choose the member theme from the combo box. With a default BP install you should only see two theme choices: BuddyPress Default Member Theme (1.0.1)–this is the one you want–and, Skeleton BuddyPress Member Theme (1.2).
Are you saying that instead of those two themes showing up in the “BuddyPress > General Settings” menu area that you have the home themes you’ve listed above?
I moved bp-themes into /wp-content/ as directed but still got the error message.
Under the “Select theme to use for BuddyPress generated pages:” in general settings the option for using the ‘bpmember’ theme was not appearing. I could only select the default wordpress mu themes. I selected the ‘Default’ theme and then renamed the ‘bpmember’ folder to ‘default’ to get this working.
Eg:
..wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/
Renamed it to this folder:
..wp-content/bp-themes/default/
This is probably a silly question but i want to check before getting started on plugins with my buddypress
Can I use any wordpress plugin or can I only use plugins made especially for BP (or maybe only plugins for WPMU)?
thanks!
@Jeff, you’re not getting the point. It’s not about custom BP slugs.
This permalink (or post slug) problem is something I hate about WordPress not being friendly to international users. Unlike wikipedia or amazon, WordPress seems to have a character limitation when used other than English, like Hindi or Asian characters.
So to answer your question @slicktig1, the only possible solution at this moment is to edit each by each through phpmyadmin. However with some hacks you should be able to edit category slugs if you search wpmu forum.
On group slugs, this is bp function, so not sure if the same wpmu hack applies or not. But at least there should be an alternative method to use postid than postname. (This is something we have to ask core developers).
Well this is what I get in the list:
WordPress Classic (1.5)
WordPress mu Default (1.6)
WordPress mu Homepage (1.6)
Because I looked there.
The latest version (v1.2.1) of the Skeleton Component for BuddyPress plugin developers can now be found on the WordPress plugin repository.
The latest version (v1.2.1) of the Skeleton Component for BuddyPress plugin developers can now be found on the WordPress plugin repository
Okay, several more questions?
Did you manually install BuddyPress or use WPMU’s plugin browser to install BP?
Did you restart the web server after making changes to the rewrite rules in the configuration file?
In your OP, you state that you have moved the bphome theme into /wp-content/themes/. Did you also move bpmember into /wp-content/bp-themes/?
Also, look near the bottom of this installing WPMU codex article for suggestions on Lighty rewrite rules: https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WPMU

Do you have two different accounts on bp.org?
As far as the redirect loop question, it could be caused by many things. So, a few questions:
- Did you install WPMU as a directory or subdomain install?
- If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory?
- You were having install issues beforehand. When you finally got this to work, could there have been old, incomplete install data leftover in your DB? Or, did you install into a fresh, new DB?
- What errors are you seeing in your server’s log files?
I did a quick Google and here are two links that explain a couple of possible causes:
