It looks like the dev probably wrote it on Windows and it used upper case but when it went into the wordpress repo, it went in as all lower case. You have to change the case of the folders to BP-Group-Control for it to work. I didn’t want to just change the file in case there were other dependencies.
Retested and retested. With 1.2.3 things okay … with 1.2.4.1 user uploaded photos show in bp activity streams etc BUT NOT wordpress mu posts eg. comment posts
Hmmm … I have other buddypress and wordpress mu plug ins, not much but few.
When I downgrade to Version 1.2.3 of buddypress things work okay.
But using the 1.2.4.1 version causes problem. Did they introduce some bug somewhere ? ( Maddening for me!)
Have you got a working site with BOTH buddypress 1.2.4.1 and WordPress -mu-2.9.2 ? Any web link please ?
I’m running BP 1.2.4.1 and it’s working for me.
Buddypress is activated sitewide. User uploaded photos show up across all activity streams. Except in wordpress mu blog posts and comments. Not sure whether this is a problem with the latest Buddypress.
Are you using the latest buddypress ?
If you activated BuddyPress sitewide, this should work across all sites.
A child theme is basically a stylesheet with a tag telling WordPress to use another theme as its foundation.
Then you can inherit all the templates that foundation theme uses and you can also override these templates in your own child theme.
Please read the article I linked to and start reading from the “Let’s start building” section.
If you have any questions about it, please list them.
@nuprn1 – Ahh okay, I thought Nick was talking about this:
http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/04/23/comment-reply-via-email-open-to-all/
The “Post via Email” option you mentioned isn’t available in WPMU, which is what I have on my testbox.
Am wondering if this option is available in WP 3.0 in network mode?
An interesting plugin idea indeed! The only thing I’m worried about is the email address that users will be sending to. It could get potentially hammered! I know this will definitely not work well on shared hosts.
Any solution to the
tag not taken by firefox in latest plugin modificaiton with WordPress 2.9.2 and Buddypress 1.2.3?
I don’t imagine it would be related to the WordPress version… but you never know. One thing I find confusing is the instruction to replace the “activitycomments” folder in the default theme. BuddyPress 1.2.4.1 does not have such a folder in it’s default theme.
That’s only on WordPress.com and only for blog comments. It’s proprietary code unless Automattic decide to release it to wordpress.org. And then someone would need to adapt it for BP as well.
@thekmen I’m talking about the first plugin you mentioned… the 2nd one, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-as-blog-comments/, doesn’t look like it would do what I’m looking for… are you sure you are not talking about the first one you mentioned:https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-group-forum-extras/ ??
Here’s a question regarding the WP-Multi Network Plugin and WordPress 3-RC1
Everything works swimmingly so far apart from one thing. When I try and signup up for a new blog on one of the networks it doesn’t redirect to the wp-signup.php file corectly. Works fine on the main site but not on the multi network sites I’ve setup.
Guessing this can be fixed using .htaccess to redirect those requests so any tips on how to go about this would be fantastic.
@pisanojm, @takeo really sorry, I activated a few plugins today for testing, this is the one that worked out of the box for me https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-as-blog-comments/
yes…that is the plugin I first tried and got the furthest with…these are my issues…when I log in via facebook connect it does not refresh the page so it just sits there and if I press the facebook connect login button again it then refreshes and I’m logged in…
then, I can not navigate anywhere via the admin bar…it just refreshes the page and takes me back to my homepage. I can not edit my profile or add a pic, etc via the the admin bar. I can only edit my profile (wordpress profile) using the edit profile link on the facebook login widget. However, I can join groups, leave comments and add friends…IF I can figure out a way to even get to the groups/members area.
It does not have any avatar/pic it does not use your facebook pic either. 
anyway…thanks again. 
If you’re moving to WPMU, forget about BuddyPress at the moment. Once you have tested that WPMU is working correctly, then you can install BuddyPress.
@wordpresschina – I have the same issue as you. One theory for a solutions is to use the import for Ning plugin, .
You will see in the comments that I asked @boonebgorges if he thought it might be possible to use a regular CSV instead of one generated by Ning. He responded that in theory it should work because the only two required column headers are “name” and “Email” and any other columns would “sniffed out”.
WARNING: I have not tried this yet and therefore can not tell you if this actually will work.
If you do try this and have success please let me know.

You shouldn’t have any. I’d recommended backing everything up, switching back to the default WordPress theme and disabling all plugins (including BuddyPress). Then when you have WP 3.0 up and working, re-enable everything one-by-one.
Most of the early BuddyPress plugins were WPMU specific as that’s what BuddyPress ran on, and whilst a lot will work with regular WordPress, it looks like you have one that doesn’t.
Same problem. I’ve tried using a plugin that lets you add custom fields to your rss feed. (http://justintadlock.com/archives/2008/01/27/custom-fields-for-feeds-wordpress-plugin) but just doesn’t work, like buddypress adjusted the default wordpress feed generator. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix?
Try “registered users 2” ( https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/registered-users-only-2/ ). It is compatible with MU and buddypress. I use it for one of my sites. “Authenticate” looks like it is very very old (only tested compatible up to wp 2.5.2)
Sorry I can’t help more
