BuddyPress.org

@hnla VHOST is not required for wordpress but is required for wordpress mu/multisite in case you want them to function as subdomain.domain.
@bstats
You should do two things and the problem should be solved.
1. Check Mod_rewrite is enabled or not(as @travel-junkie has pointed). If you are on wamp 2.0, you can left click on the wamp icon(in the quick taskbar, the half cirecle icon)->Slect Apache(from the menu)->Apache Modules->rewrite_module(If it is not having a tick, click over that). Refresh the wordpress page and check is it working or not.
2.Once mod rewrite is checked you can try enabling/disabling permalink and resave it and Most probably it is going to work.

No, it’s not WordPress. Personally I use Xampp, so I’m not familiar with Wamp. Somewhere in your Wamp files there will be a file called http.conf. That’s the apache configuration file. There you can control what modules are being loaded by your test server. Look for that file, open it and then look for this line

`#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so`

and remove the #

Then restart Apache.

Sorry about the php.ini reference in the post before. Mixed that up…

In that case I’d suggest creating an installation with the same versions used originally on another server or local dev environment and seeing if that makes a difference, if it’s a server config issue maybe or some other mis-configuration somewhere.

@stwc problem is, I’m using wordpress in a different folder than the root of the domain. So my WP files live in domain.com/wordpress/ and my “wordpress blog” is at domain.com.

I was told by sever people, including r-a-y that I need to change the “buddypress default domain” or something of that nature. I was told to put this code in my functions.php file, but it doesn’t work. Any suggestions?

// Getting rid of the subfolder in URLs/permalinks
function my_bp_override_core_domain() {
$domain = get_bloginfo(‘url’);
return $domain;
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_get_root_domain’,’my_bp_override_core_domain’);

Yeah, but poor @Chad Holden isn’t so lucky

@ipstenu

Everything works fine on our site. Media library, post media, avatars…

more or less, you can test it out over on:
http://mystique.bp-theme-converts.com

I’ll zip it up if you want tomorrow.

Has anyone made this BuddyPress-compatible yet?

hi
For your first question, you may want to try this plugin
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-registration-options/
checkout this thread too
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/moderate-members/

For the second, yes, It is possible. Just go to SiteAdmin->Options and select the radio box which says only logged in users can create blog.
PHp5 may be an issue, better why not ask your server adminstrator to upgrade.

that is depressing since I am a complete die hard fan of simple facebook connect – http://ottopress.com/wordpress-plugins/simple-facebook-connect/ I hope it doesn’t die out. Let’s just see how it all plays out in the future devs. Thanks for the heads up

As andrea_r said, you can’t. More precisely, it’s not a supported or advertised feature of WordPress.

If you’re comfortable working with PHP and WP themes, you could try something like this: http://ryanpricemedia.com/2007/04/08/howto-include-wordpress-widgets-in-post-or-page-body/

*ponder* It doesn’t make any sense to me, except maybe it’s PHP setup. Can you add an image to a regular blog post outside of BP?

Hi

Post where? In a group forum? Also, what versions of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using please.

Well, I added this to bb-config.php

`// Include WordPress functionality
$currDir = dirname(getcwd());
// Make sure this isn’t install or admin (go up if it is)
if(!file_exists(“$currDir/wp-blog-header.php”))
$currDir = dirname($currDir);
if(!file_exists(“$currDir/wp-blog-header.php”))
die(“Cannot find WordPress integration files.”);
require_once(“$currDir/wp-blog-header.php”);`

got the code from here
http://labs.b5media.com/blog/creating-the-anypress-solution/

…still need to test…but the theme seems to work now…i think

1and1 works fine with WordPress. I run a number of sites with 1and1 not an issue, only MU does not work. I know this is marked resolved I have been testing Buddypress and MU for a while now, and It has nothing to do with BuddyPress. It is an MU issue with 1and1

@Erich73 On WPMU, the user database is shared between all sites. The user registration is executed on the main blog. In Welcome Pack’s case, there’s not a lot of difference therefore if it runs sitewide or on a per-blog basis, so I set it to run sitewide just in case there is some unusual way that WordPress user accounts can be added.

Have you created a network in WP 3.0?

You have to do this first before you can enable user blogs.
