Looks great, when will it be released for further testing?
When checking a classified detail, I getthe following error:
Warning: Division by zero in /home/benoitgr/public_html/dev/wordpress-mu/wp-content/plugins/bp-classifieds/bp-classifieds-templatetags.php on line 191
Cheers
The plugin is proof of concept code, you need to decide under what circumstances you want to allow group creation. At the moment, as you say, everyone is restricted… perhaps you want to base it on user capabilities? Have a look at the WordPress function current_user_can (support forum tag) and use this in rgc_validate_group_creation something like this (untested):
// Stop the creation of a group unless the current user can manage options
function rgc_validate_creation( $allowed, $group_details ) {
// User is OK to continue if they can manage options
if ( current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) )
return true;
// Otherwise they can't
bp_core_add_message( 'Sorry, you are not allowed to create groups.', 'error' );
return false;
}
Were you able to resolve the problem?
I have a similar plugin that is fully WPMU and BuddyPress compatible:
SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/
The is a filter that needs to be added to wpmu to resolve this issue. There is already a ticket that discusses this:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1103
That buddypress ticket includes a link to this ticket in for wpmu:
https://trac.mu.wordpress.org/ticket/1120
I’ve just faced this same question in this thread: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/buddypress-says-themes-are-missing-but-they-arent
The answer seems to be yes, but it feels like quite a convoluted process. I understand the ethos from a design standpoint as to why they want a Buddypress theme used as the primary theme on ones WordPress site, but I really feel that this is an inflexible approach for those who have well-established WordPress sites already active.
If you use this on Buddypress be sure to update to the latest version of SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam

Thanks for testing…
All fixed in the latest version

There’s a Codex article:
https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/upgrading-a-buddypress-1-0-theme-for-buddypress-1-1/
Scroll down to the section entitled “I’ve used a WordPress theme for my blog with the default BuddyPress member themeâ€.
Does this mean that the Default theme must now be used as the primary Theme on a site?
Previously, I was able to use a standard WordPress theme (vita) and link to my Community (Buddypress, using the 1.0.1 Default theme). From what I can see now though, if I want to use the Buddypress 1.1 Default theme, it needs to be activated as the primary theme. Is there any way around this? If not, this is a frustrating development indeed….
I’m bumping this, as this issue is critical for non English bp users around the world.
Or if anybody know any wordpress hack to make wordpress understand i18n slugs just as good as wikipedia, please let us know.
@Tore, no, BP 1.1 themes go into /wp-content/themes/ like any other wordpress themes.
/wp-content/bp-themes/ is from the previous version of BP and is deprecated.
Thanks Jeff I did see that. I jumped to the end ““I’ve built a completely custom WordPress theme and BuddyPress themeâ€
I was thinking mine was custom but maybe its just altered. I think I need to visit
““I’ve used the old default themes, but modified the layout/colors—
a little more in depth now that you point it out. thanks.
After I finish a site I’m working on I’m going to hack that wordpress iphone plugin to work with BP

@forestwander-
Your issue is not the same as the OP. I’ve replied to your issue on your other cross post.
I also have tried activating 1.1 and am getting the same type error.
However, I am in fact using WPMU.
After several tries, sometimes I get 500 internal server error.
Installing from the plugins in the admin console simply won’t work.
I am using 1and1.
I cannot activate please help
If /wp-content/bpthemes/ exist, BP will try to use pre-version 1.1 themes.
If that folder doesn’t exist, it will load from /wp-content/themes/ as like normal WordPress. This is explained perfectly well in the upgrade documentation and throughout this forum.
Of course there’s a BuddyPress “API”. How do you think we write plugins and themes that rely on BuddyPress? If you are specifically talking about stuff like how WordPress can use XML-RPC for remote blog posts, then, no, there’s nothing like that at the moment. You could use the AJAX functions for quite a lot of stuff, however.
I would imagine this is a very low priority feature suggestion and such a thing would more likely be driven by someone writing some kind of external app.
You are not following the upgrade instructions properly. There’s a document linked on the news post on the front of this site to an in-depth article, but:
1) Deactivate all of your plugins, but not BuddyPress (yet).
2) Remove any plugins out of your mu-plugins folder.
3) Change your theme back to the standard WordPress theme.
4) (Now) deactivate the BuddyPress plugin.
5) Delete BuddyPress off your server and the /wp-content/bp-themes/ directory.
6) Upload 1.1 and move the new themes into /wp-content/themes/.
7) Reactivate the BuddyPress plugin. Reactivate the BuddyPress theme.
Reactivate any other plugins you took out in step 1.
WPSC has a “don’t cache for logged in users” setting, which you might want to use given the nature of a BP site.
I’ve seen various people also recommending WP Object Caching, which can reduce the load on the DB server and might be worth looking into *if* your performance bottleneck is the DB… if it isn’t, then it could make matters worse. Use the page generation time and (to a lesser extent) the number of queries information that the default templates show in an HTML comment at the bottom of most templates to test your options both with and without whatever caching you put in.
Useful links: Overview of WP Object Cache from 2006 for an intro, various flavours of Object Cache (APC, eAccelerator, filesystem) (if you dig around you’ll also find one which works with memcached).
