Groups in blogs
-
I wonder as I haven’t seen the option yet, Is it possible or will it be possible in the future for people opening their own site within a WPMU install to also have their group within it so that they can brand it all, network with others and so.
What I mean is so that:
website1.domain.com would contain the users website, group, forums, activity wall, etc rather than their users having to go the main blog? This kind of gives them an all in one solution for when your selling subscriptions like ad removal, domain mapping, etc, it can be white labelled from the main host then.
I notice if you use a Buddy theme on sub-blos that the links for groups and such simply do not work.

Thanks for your answer, it is a shame that it wont be supported in the near future and possibly not at all, it would give a blog/site owner a chance to have a social network within their site with their own mapped domain.
I see that WPMU Dev offer a forum plugin to work with bbpress so at least sites could still have a forum.
Thanks again.
Whilst not strictly what I was looking for there is a partial solution:
wp-config.php
define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );
This will allow Buddypress to run on site wide blogs rather than just on the root domain so in theory you could have a website just create a manual link to their group with their own mapped or sub domain. not sure how well all themes would work with this though, I guess it won’t hurt me to try at some point
