Best to ask on wordpress.org
PJParticipant
It seems it should be available here http://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_General_SubPanel but it isn’t. Any help? Thanks.
@uglyrobot many thanks for the updated plugin 
Hey guys, finally got around to updating it for WP 3.1 and putting it on wp.org:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/multisite-plugin-manager/
Enjoy!
Im getting a group duplication problem as well when sending invites at the final stage of creating a group? Can anyone shed some light on why this may be happening? Im running wordpress 3.0.2 with buddypress 1.2.6
if you’re on an Mu install you’l have to log in as a super admin and access their admin areas individually for each blog. Although thsi is a buddypress forum so perhaps you want to ask the question on the wordpress forums.
@Reezo, @Dimensionmedia:
Thanks guys… sorry for taking such a long time to update on this. Ended up having to work on some other projects. I’ve managed to get the custom avatar generator to function okay now, and have a live project that uses it (http://school.ocdaction.org.uk/), but I need to tidy up the code a little. At the moment I’m having to plug the wordpress avatar function (get_avatar) and use that for my rendering duties. What I’d like to happen is for the bp dev team to make their bp_core_fetch_avatar pluggable, as it doesnt really have much scope for extending in its current state. Maybe I’m wrong, but if someone has more knowledge of how to alter bp_core_fetch_avatar for my needs then that would be awesome. I did think of filtering, but one aspect of bp_core_fetch_avatar I don’t particulary see the need of is that it pushes the final img url through http://www.gravatar.com, which in my opinion is a wasted resource, as this plugin would only read directly off the parts folder when it generates an avatar, and then loads from a cache dir.
Welcome any thoughts on this.
Hey guys, I’m looking at integrating Buddypress to an existing site that uses Wishlist Member and I’m hoping to hear that you’ve tried it and all is fine. Looking forward to hearing great news!!
please tell me how you sync both sites to the same account?
Installing WordPress in a directory with the same name as one of BuddyPress’ components will break things; it’s a known issue.
What is the complete error warning? You might be looking at ajax.php when the problem is the phrase before that and the victim is ajax.php. See https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_do_I_solve_the_Headers_already_sent_warning_problem.3F
I just upgraded to wordpress 3.1, and installed BuddyPress 1.2.8. However, the plugin doesn’t get activated because of this error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_multisite() in /*****/****/****/****/****/****/html/xtremz/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php on line 287
I don’t have a multisite WP installation, so I’m wondering how this error came to be. Help!
Use the conditional function `is_admin()` to detect whether the user is in the WordPress admin area
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_admin
Not a buddypress problem or issue.
Go to the wordpress.org forums. https://wordpress.org/support/
Hey I have WordPress MU installed with BuddyPress, and I was wondering if I could have a login/register page BEFORE anyone is able to view anything? Currently, when you go to the site it displays a blog, I would like a full page with the “login” forms and if the person doesnt have an account he can “signup”
Thanks so much!
– mod_rewrite must be enabled https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-server
– Before installing BuddyPress, you need to have your permalinks issue resolved first. https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting log in with same username and password used here.
I have modified the buddpress admin bar by creating the following plugin which adds a simple text link to the bar:
Code:
function bp_adminbar_currentsite_menu() {
global $bp;
link stuff
}
// Call The Function Above
add_action(‘bp_adminbar_menus’, ‘bp_adminbar_currentsite_menu’, 999);
However, I do NOT want the above link to be shown when logged into the wordpress admin backend (so for example when an admin is editing a post). I thought about just doing a php_self check to see if it contained “/wp-admin/” but figured that there has to be a more elegant wordpress/buddypress hook here.
How can I get the above code to only show when you are viewing a normal blog page, NOT in the admin area?
Thanks

I see. I just tried to create a demo account but for some reason buddypress has threw a wrench into things. Before, people where able to just click the register link and choose a username and login which would then direct people to a paypal page before they could access the site.
Now, for some unknown reason, there is no way to access the site at all! You go to register, it comes up with the a buddypress from instead of the wordpress login page. Once you fill it out, it sends an email to you with an activation link. Once you do that, it takes you to the site but it is just as restricted as if you where a non-member and it doesn’t seem like there is any way to actually become a member like there way before. I’ll take some screen shots and post links.
Problem occurs exactly when the author credit in the readme doesn’t match a wordpress.org user account name. I’ll let Boone police his own groups, but if any plugin author has this problem, I’m happy to fix.
@tomharrigan You’re the group owner now
Hi all,
running WP 3.0.4 with BP 1.2.8. Using the default BP theme.
Strange issue with user registration:
1. When BP is inactive, new users can register with no problem.
2. When BP is active, using /register/ the page seems to be completely submitted, but then the user is redirected to home, and the new user is not saved.
Any thoughts? I have been searching for a solution to no avail.
Making a theme compatible with BP isn’t I’m afraid a one click process and there are some manual steps that must be undertaken and that do require a little coding knowledge – although not much.
These two pages in the BP codex will help you, the second probably the best one to read through fisrt.
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/
If you haven’t already performed the extra manual steps outlined in these pages you will need to have a go and if you get stuck post back with where you’ve got to and someone will help out.
I recently added buddypress to my wordpress site and am having a little trouble with it.
For the most part, it’s more of an aesthetics thing than functionality – like my formating not matching up. I used the plugin that was to make my theme compatible with buddypress but I’m wondering if that didn’t fully work.
However, I’m also having issues with changing my avatar to something other than the generic one that is sort of a buddypress default.
I was wondering if somebody could help me either by becoming a member of my site and physically checking out th issue or by maybe taking be through it based on screen shots or something.
If anybody is willing and able, let me know and we’ll figure it out.
