Of course I know how to backup database and restore it. However, the normal database backup does not work for me. I get following error:
mysqldump: mysqldump: Couldn’t execute ‘show table status like ‘wp\_user\_999\_friends\_activity\_cached”: Out of memory (Needed 2093952 bytes) (5)
mysqldump: mysqldump: Couldn’t execute ‘show table status like ‘wp\_user\_999\_friends\_activity\_cached”: Out of memory (Needed 2093952 bytes) (5)
I tried restoring an older version of the backup of live site on my test site setup using XAMPP on my desktop. I get “Fatal Error”

If your blog does not display, please contact the owner of this site.
If you are the owner of this site please check that MySQL is running properly and all tables are error free.
Could Not Find Blog!
Searched for localhost.localdomain/rkn/ in wordpressmu::wp_blogs table. Is that right?
What do I do now?
Read the bug report page. Some of the guidelines there may help you figure out what went wrong.
If you’re still stuck with this message, then check that your database contains the following tables:
wp_blogs
wp_users
wp_usermeta
wp_site
wp_sitemeta
wp_sitecategories
If you suspect a problem please report it to the support forums but you must include the information asked for in the WPMU bug reporting guidelines!
RC2 this evening? sweetness!
I think i will have a fresh installation of the pair 
Hmm files have been both added and removed. Whilst you could just upload/overwrite, that wouldn’t remove the files that have been removed. You’d have to check very very carefully.
Ergo I suggest you delete all your existing files but keep the database. Upload the new files, then visit the admin pages and it should update the database.
It would be great to have an option for setting events permalink structures. WordPress can’t afford to display non English permalinks (slugs) that are long unlike Amazon. So for example, I need to use event ID rather than event titles.
Hi, Paul, would there be a patch to upgrade to BP RC2,
or would it require a straight fresh install?
Wait for BP RC2 to come out this evening. Then do that
I’m currently running WPMU 2.7 with Buddypress RC1. The upgrade link on the top of my installation is bit irresistible.
Shall I go ahead and hit the upgrade link? Or wait …
How could I go about adding the bp admin bar to the top of my wordpress back end admin pages?
When you go to the news tab on my site and then click on a blog post the side bar is inside the blog post on the bottom of the page. If you log in it looks fine. Where could this problem be happening/can anyone help?
To see what I am talking about you can go to http://sewmee.com/wordpress-mu/blog/2009/04/09/post-2/
ok… after reading a bunch on some forums… this is possible with mod rewrite
(alot of cool things could be done with mod rewrite in .htaccess)
for example,
user types in
username.domain.com
and the user gets served
domain.com/members/username
or user types in
domain.com/username
and the user gets served
domain.com/members/username
so either way the domain gets entered, the user will still get served the same page
any mod rewrite gurus out there?
I envision a BP Admin option to select how member pages are viewed,
which would then add a condition to the mod rerwite in .htaccess
like choosing permalink structure in regular wordpress
this would be a great addition to BP
There are some plugins that exist to mimic this functionality, but no, nothing exactly like what you describe yet.
The problem is translating post content, like categories, post titles, and body copy. There would need to be multiple versions of each item with the same slug, which isn’t currently possible with WordPress at the core.
Can you put forum subjects in the <title> tag in html?
Now it always says ‘BuddyPress.org – A WordPress MU Based Social Network Platform’. Very annoying for bookmarking or when you save the page etc.
It would be much more useful to have ‘BuddyPress.org – Forum subject in title’ or even ‘Forum subject in title – BuddyPress.org’
I assume it’s a bbPress issue. Or is it part of the theme?
Dear John,
1. All my files now are virgins right now. I have not modified a line anywhere.
In my previous installation I had done some modification and thought it had somehow corrupted the alphabetical seraching. But it doesn’t work in the new installation too.
Can you please take a look at http://onlicone.com/cone/wordpress-mu/members ?
2. Yes, I meant Avatars. In my previous installation, friends who registered for test purpose had this problem — even after the uploaded avatar was successfully loaded and displayed correctly for hours or days.
HI, Burtadsit,
I am using wordpress-mu-2.7 and Buddypress Combo.
Candace81,
I’m going to guess that WordPress MU 2.7.1 doesn’t play nicely with BuddyPress RC1.
However, I’m going to try them out and see if I run into these same issues.
If you can give me a half-hour to install and configure and get back here, that would be awesome.
Worst case scenario, I’ll point you in the direction of how to download the trunk. BuddyPress RC2 will most likely be out by the end of the week (still have some minor things to test and clean-up before release.)
That would be wpmu from here: https://mu.wordpress.org/download/
And bp from here: https://buddypress.org/download/
Those two would be the latest official releases. Where did you put bp? That version of bp should go in /mu-plugins. You should have a bunch of files like bp-core.php, bp-<whatever>.php in that dir and also a bunch of subdirs like /mu-plugins/bp-activity, /mu-plugins/bp-<whatever>
That what you have running?
Warning: require(.. [snip] .. /buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-signup.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory .. [snip] .. /functions.php on line 70
If you are seeing this error then you are installing RC2/trunk verson of bp in /mu-plugins. That more recent version of bp requires to major things:
1) wpmu 2.7.1: http://mu.wordpress.org/download/
2) RC2/trunk bp does not live in /mu-plugins anymore. See the INSTALL-README.txt for details. It must be installed in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress and activated like a wp plugin from the wpmu admin back end Plugins menu. Activate site wide.
If you see something similar to the above error only with: Warning: require(BP_PLUGIN_DIR/bp-core/bp-core-signup.php) then please go to the wpmu back end admin area Plugins and activate the BuddyPress plugin.
Well, how latest?
I mean, WPMU 2.7.1 came out a couple hours ago. https://mu.wordpress.org/download/.
BP rc2 is likely to come out in the next day or two. BP rc2 and the current trunk and the v1 release will need WPMU 2.7.1. I suggest you wait for BP rc2, then upgrade to WPMU 2.7.1 and BP rc2 and see if the problem remains.
There’s been so much stuff fixed since rc1..
Auwagner-
I\’m running the latest WPMU (2.7)
Then you’re not running either WPMU 2.7.1-beta1 or -beta2?
If that is the case, then this is the issue. WPMU 2.7.1 has been required since BuddyPress r1303.
Fortunately, you’re in luck! WPMU 2.7.1 was just officially released this afternoon. Read this ( http://ocaoimh.ie/2009/04/21/wordpress-mu-271/ ) and get it here: https://mu.wordpress.org/download/
I have an issue with my buddypress installation
When viewing the homepage or a member page no CSS is loaded in chrome, firefox or safari. However the pages are displayed correctly in IE7 and opera,
Homepage – http://illdesigned.com/user/
example member page – http://illdesigned.com/user/barrymadden
I’m using godaddy economy hosting if that is relevant to this problem, is there an issue with the .htaccess file and PHP?
Please help!
I have correctly installed wordpressMU
I have installed buddypress as instructed
I have relocated the theme folders to
wp-content/themes/buddypress-home

Hi Jeff, thanks , i will wait a bit until the official release

Well, bad news for me, but maybe good news for you.
The bad news is I didn’t made it into the GSoC; but the good news is that there is a proposal by other student that aims to implement photo albums into WordPress, so hopefully we’ll see this working in BuddyPress in the future.
