BuddyPress.org

@joesanch “I’ve tried several installs and found using the activity stream and a blank blog page as static pages generates a page cannot be found error on the home page. However, this works fine with 2.9.2. Any suggestions? Thx!”

I have same problem with wp 3.0 rc network and buddypress ( blank page and cannot be found error on the admin page )
Any suggestions?

Ok, really sorry about this but I’m a complete newbie to wordpress. My host is 1and1 and I have the installation working, but when I try to activate the buddypress plugin I get the 500 error. I see the recommendation here to modify the .htaccess file, but I don’t have one! Any tips?

please please send me the mystique/buddypress convert….

I would really appreciate it.. it’s perfect for what I do and I really can’t use buddypress in the current state… I don’t know enough about code to fix it! Thank You

@mazen I’m planning to look at this as well. Just haven’t had time yet. My plan was to look at how this plugin does it: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-fb-autoconnect/ Hopefully that can be used to do the automatic login. I know there’s a paid plugin that does it so it’s possible.

You see roadmap says:

1.3

* WordPress 3.0 support

No mention that 1.2.4 can run on WP 3.0

Ah so 1.2.4 was conceived as WP 3.0 ready, be good to know could possibly do with a little more detail in the roadmaps, or maybe there is and I just haven’t paid enough attention.

It’s a case of too much work for far too small a team! that will need to be addressed as BP grows exponentially

i believe 1.2.4.1 is wp3-ready and bp1.3 will come out after to take advantage of wp3 only features. (have to brush up on last week’s dev notes)

Make sure that your WordPress installation is working before adding BuddyPress. Your hosting package must meet these requirements at a minimum. Also, as rich! @ etiviti ( @nuprn1 ) states, you can learn a lot about potential install issues by checking your server’s log files.

@angelfire4xx you install buddypress plugins like normal wordpress plugins – in the wordpress plugins directory.

Also, I have never used this plugin but I believe its functionality was rolled into Invite-Anyone https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/invite-anyone/

Hi @urbanic, logging into a buddypress site is no different than logging into wordpress, so you can use any wordpress login widget you like. Start here:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=login+widget

Have bbPress 1.0.2, BuddyPress 1.2.4 and WordPress 3.0 beta running fine. Haven’t seen any problem yet.

Almost gonna do beta, so I’ll find out what problems will show up.

Not sure that 1.3 is that far off is it? not sure really, but I would hesitate running WP 3.0 and BP 1.2.4 on a production server.

It would be interesting to know what adjustments need to be made to enable BP to work with WP 3.0

NO I would have thought that it isn’t ever safe to assume anything!

I have WP 3.0 beta 2 installed to test, haven’t yet run BP 1.2.4 on it yet to see what’s what but don’t really expect it to fully function, BP 1.3 is the version that has to be waited on for production sites and then I would wait a while for any teething issue to be sorted out – look at the recent 1.2.4 issues that had to be resolved with a point release some 12 hours after release.

no problems here on various configs – disable all other wordpress plugins first? (maybe a conflict?) anything in the log files?

In the admin panel, I can only choose for English and Spannish. Is it possible to add languages? My default WordPress language is Dutch.

I also had this problem. Installing the plugin from WordPress is not working. I downloaded the zip and am going to try to upload using ftp later today.
