Kunal17, you could potentially use the PHP Code Widget Plugin by Otto to paste that PHP snippet by Milan in there.

I am fairly confident there is a site wide tags plugin for MU that allows this.
Search the wordpress.org plugin area for “site wide tags” and see what you get.
(Normally I’d give a better answer but I’m posting from my BlackBerry.)
@gwsa
where do you host your site? Just in case other bp users face the same nightmare when choosing the host…
I’ve never seen this problem, my install just works properly. Make sure you disable all other plugins but bp when solving this problem.
gwsa – because this is not a BuddyPress bug. It’s something to do with your setup, hence the reason no one else has had the problem.
Are you sure you don’t have any crazy re-write rules or symlinks for your themes folder?
Also tried upping to 1.0.2. No fix.
Burt,
With BP Deactivated:
Site Admin -> Themes, 7 Installed, 4 Active (all WP Themes)
Appearance -> Themes, 4 to choose from
As soon as I activate BP:
Site Admin -> Themes, 3 Installed, 0 active (all BP Themes)
Appearance -> Themes, ZERO to choose from
Doug-
I can’t speak to the reason why the CSS was implemented this way, but it may have something to do with the fact that bphome is a default theme which can be replaced with any WordPress theme with a few tweaks here and there. So it follows the standard WP theming protocol.
The bpmember theme, on the other hand, is unique to the BuddyPress world. As I’m sure you know, you cannot take a standard WP theme and tweak it into a custom BP member theme. Andy created the CSS coding protocols from scratch for BuddyPress member themes. Andy can speak to this more directly–and correct me if my assumptions are wrong!
I could see a lot of value in pulling all of the color values & branding (logo) out of base.css and into branding.css
I like this idea a lot!
I don’t have any memory errors but I keep getting this error.
[25-Jun-2009 07:05:35] WordPress database error Table ‘pb1285n_sims3legacy.wp_98_options’ doesn’t exist for query SELECT * FROM wp_98_options WHERE option_name = ‘blogname’ made by require, require_once, do_action, call_user_func_array, bp_core_do_catch_uri, load_template, require_once, load_template, require_once, bp_the_site_blog_name, bp_get_the_site_blog_name, get_blog_option
Any idea? Thanks
gwsa, you don’t have access to the wp themes? Site Admin > Themes > Activate some on that list. Then Appearance > Themes > All those you activated should be available for selection.
dawnsinger, the universal blog theme is the theme that lives in /wp-content/themes/default. All blog themes are wordpress themes.

Andy — I’m probably just missing it in the documentation somewhere, but my user-created blogs are showing up as default WordPress themes. How/where do I set a universal member BLOG theme?
Thanks,

irc… another thing I’ve never gotten into…… sorry for being so slow in adapting.
It seems my plugin is now listed correctly on the WP plugins AND I can upload changes to the trunk with Tortoise! Yay for technology!
One last question regarding the plugin repository. I see some folks have an image (avatar) for their plug-in both in BuddyPress plugins list and WordPress’…. how do I go about adding one?
ok, i started from 0 again, its my 4th day trying to make it work, 8 hours day, I am FRUSTRATED, now:
bbpress alpha 6
BP 1.0.1
wordpress mu 2.7.1
I followed ALL the steps in this post (https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=471&page=5), I know them by heart already, users are shared in bbpress and wordpress, if i log on as admin in wordpress i am logged in also in bbpress, cookies seem to work but….
…still not able to create a group with forum, nothing is updated in bbpress after creating the group, i think its because of cookies but I did ALL as commented so I am REALLY lost 
((
so bbpress alpha 6 doesnt work for me, i tried rc1 and rc3 also
i hope, its the most difficult installation ever
after expending 4 days to integrate buddypress bbpress and wordpress mu with no luch it makes Drupal easy
ok, now when i log in in wordpress i am logged in bbpress, but still cant create a group with forums enabled
and now i can say i dont have any idea of what more to try (((

Erwin you have to connect to the wp plugins repo for your plugin such as:
http://svn.wp-plugins.org/<plugin slug>
Where your plugin slug is the filename of the download zip, minus the .zip part. Then you can ‘checkout’ a copy of the repo which is your working copy. In tortise svn it’s right click in the directory you want to create a copy and ‘svn checkout…’
It’ll ask you the url to the repo and the name of the dir to put things in.
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/faq/ for kinda how to take it from there.
THE CAUSE FOUND!!!
I found the cause of this issue. So obvious. Everyone who’s having this issue please follow this instruction!!
DON’T REINSTALL THE WORDPRESS OR BUDDYPRESS. You should just follow the steps below.
1. go to siteurl/wp-admin
2. go to setting -> permalinks
3. Change common settings EXCEPT DEFAULT. If you set it as default, the issue occurs.
If this doesn’t work, please reply.
Thank you all!

I reckon as much as 25% of my users are using ie 6
Well, based on the most recent browser statistics, you have an unusual group of users!
It is very difficult to optimize a theme design for IE6. Are you using a custom theme? If so, look at the header.php file that comes with the default BP theme and make sure that you’ve included the calls to the ie6.css files.
Also, here’s a thread that about IE6 issues that may help out: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2262#post-14161
I said this in another thread about IE support:
Getting themes of any platform (not just WordPress) to work in all versions of IE can be frustrating and tricky at best, impossible at worst. I would focus on optimizing your users’ IE experience on IE8 and IE7. Some designers are not even supporting IE6 anymore. I wouldn’t even worry about IE5.5 Of course, this is only my opinion.
@Gpo1: Zend is a popular PHP development framework. This plugin would enable that framework within WordPress. So unless you’re a programmer… it wouldn’t do a whole lot for you. If you are a programmer… it could make plugin development easier… which is pretty cool. Correct me if I’m wrong guys. That’s my rudimentary understanding.
Thank you all. I solved this problem. I don’t know what’s the cause though.
I just reinstalled whole WordPress MU & BuddyPress. But I didn’t erased the MySQL DB. So I could use whole data base again normally.
If someone is struggling with this issue, Just reinstall them. It’s easiest way I think. 
Thank you Brian!
So you solved the problem by reinstalling WordPress MU and Buddypress right? Did you reset the DB also?
Per Burt, tried reinstalling both WPMU and BP. No luck.
Everything is great, I activate BP, and then I don’t have access to my WP themes, anywhere.
I guess as Andy pointed out, its not a universal bug, and as a result have been trying to track down the filter that replaces the theme_root, at the very least to make an ugly hack to keep things running. Any suggestions in that dept.?
This hasn’t been reported by others. There have been a couple of ‘The bp themes are missing and it’s showing /themes in the bp backend instead of /bp-themes.’
Reinstall of wpmu/bp seems to solve the issue. Haven’t been able to track it down.
I just recovered from a bad spam incident on my buddypress site. A user (who looked legit) suddenly started private messaging the whole community with obviously spam material resulting in some very angry members
I will go ahead and install Akismet and a captcha during registration H.owever, is it true that each user has to obtain their own key from wordpress.com and plug it into Akismet to get it to work? Is there an alternative that I can just activate for everyone? Or can I just provide all my members with my key to activate their akismet?
Also, what steps have other BP admin used to prevent the kind of spam that I mentioned above? I do not think Akismet & the captcha during registration would have helped in this situation.
Is there a plugin that flags users who message a lot of users in a short time? Something like that might help fight spammers.
Thanks.
