With pretty much every user created blog to be part of the main site…

@nahummadrid, Thanks for the response.

You’ve got me thinking that I already have an issue then.

For instance I have a page named music. The URL for it is myblog.com/music.

If a user signed up and made their username music then their blog URL would be the same myblog.com/music.

Or am I missing something?

Maybe a prefix can be added to the blogs like what has been done for all of the other elements within wordpress.

Like this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vertical-scroll-recent-post/

But this plugin has limited features

I had some time earlier to create a little spider that basically:

– Scans the extensions page (all 12 pages!) for the direct URL’s of each plugin
– Extracts meta-data from each of the pages (title, rating, downloads, last updated, compatible, requires.. etc)
– Normalizes a little bit
– Dumps to text file for database import or CSV

Anyhow, for about 30 minutes worth of work, I was able to get most of the meta-data into a report. Some pages threw errors, probably because I didn’t set a delay between fetches or something but I could easily improve on this and cron the process into a database. Anyhow, I was mostly curious about searching through the extensions more effectively. Here’s a sampling of the top 20 or so by downloads:

@Andrea_r, thanks, but I think it is also a little deffirent, BP must built a group first, and everyone has his own ‘timeline’ in twitter.
@r-a-y, I clicked the testbp.org, but the google tells me the link is bronken. Then I click the site Cached, and I see the page `BuddyPress Test Drive`, how to setup if there has a tutorial? is there everyone get one page like this? or still relay on creating a group?
Thanks to all.

Many of the linkss on the pages I would copy and paste directly into the page article I was writing. Could it be the links that are causing the conflict. The other links I just used the link editor to link things up. But heres the deal, even when I make a new menu with no links or anything still no drop down menu..
I did disable BP,and every plug in..nothing

I did update my wordpress a few days ago, but the dropdowns worked fine after that..

I just tried the SMTP plugins you suggested but no matter what I do with it’s settings, it just keeps giving errors…

The below error for example;

Test Message Sent

‘The result was:
