Hi @tammy1999
I have a 2 site multisite sounds a bit ambiguous.
Do you mean 2 multisite installs or 1 multisite install with 2 sites ?
If your config is the second option, BuddyPress should be at the root of the main site, at the same level as WordPress. Case A. of a standart network install, as explained here:
Installation in WordPress Multisite
Read attentively each step of your special configuration to see if you didn’t omited something in your settings.
Sorry I wasn’t clear.
I have a multi site with with a main site and secondary site. I have put define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2 ); in the wp-config.php. I have only activated BuddyPress on the secondary site. And everything is good with the settings.
Except when it comes to the Groups Pages on the Dashboard of the secondary site. When I make any changes to the pages on any group and hit Save, it will go to the Main Site. It should go to the secondary site. Also any Group Page details shows up in the Group Page area on the Main site. The only reason I know this is because I activated Buddy Press on the Main site and all the groups are there. But I keep all the BuddyPress plugins off on the Main site.
The Group Pages doesn’t have any group pages listed on the secondary site.
I thought after making the secondary site the BuddyPress site that everything would show up there.
Yep, now it’s clearer. But sorry, I don’t know about a way to get some groups on main site and some others only on a secondary site.
Group should be intended as members group. And a group is not a site. It is just a bunch of members attached to a group.
Also, a group is not a blog and that’s why you get on a multisite install several blogs who share the same members, belonging eventually to differents groups. What and wherever the install is on main or seconday blog.
Members are all in the same DB table and WP doesn’t share them by groups, but by username > blog authors…
As you already know, BuddyPress comes with a member directory and a group directory. And on a multisite(aka network), a blog directory. But basically, all 3 cases are related to members, not to blog. There is no relation between a blog and a group. You can eventually install a blog into a group (buddypress group blog plugin), but you can’t install a group into a specific blog (outside the one where BP is activated). A group is not a blog.
On codex it is specified: buddypress root blog (the one you get from WordPress) or buddypress root blog on secondary site.
In other words, It should go to the secondary site. is not possible.
But i can be completely wrong. 😉
