BuddyPress.org

Hi – i’m not certain if this is a BuddyPress issue and/or related to other WP Multisite networks within networks issue and/or issue with WP Multi Network plugin and/or should be reported in https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket and/or ..??.. but here i go …

after i upgraded my WP Multisite Network to WP 3.9 i started seeing daily php fatal log errors (see below example) …

my site is a Multisite Network with one sub network via the WP Multi Network plugin … thus only two networks … network a = mothership root network and network b = secondary sub network where BuddyPress was activated on this b network but not yet activated on the a network …

the number 16 in error logs corresponds to sub site id on the b network where BuddyPress was activated …

neither a or b network had an admin account and this seems to be the problem in that BuddyPress, at least in sub networks created, needs this admin account to be present …

background fyi – i had installed my WP Multisite Network and created new Super User and deleted the admin account based on various security threads i read about hardening thus thought my new super user account was cool …

turns out that when i created network b as my new super user admin renamed, the network was created but on that new network my super user status was delegated to subscriber status thus no admin options …

my only work out was to create a new admin user via phpMyAdmin and insert new admin user but i digress …

once i had a new admin user then the error messages seemed to stop …

had read something about BuddyPress issue of “Stop user accounts logging in that have not been activated yet (user_status = 2).” at this url ->
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/4676/

and suspect the admin account having never been activated being issue ..??..

any pointers that can be shared are greatly appreciated … cordially, chuck scott
