Hello All,

I can’t locate the site admin menu.
It’s the section that says, or used to say “enabled blog and user”

I have made multiple clean installs of the latest version of wordpress and buddypress separately and together (using simple script)
The version is 3.1.2

I want users to be able to sign up to make their own blogs.
The General setting is currently set to “subscriber”, but I’ve tried every oter option as well.

Thanks,
lj

In order for your users to register sites, you need to enable Multi-site. Once that’s done, you should be able to go into the Network Admin menu in the top right corner. From there, Settings on the Left has a Registration Settings area to Allow New Registrations. The available radio buttons allow you to decide whether your users can register Sites. This also enables the “Create A Blog!” option in the BuddyBar along the top.

On the root site (where buddypress is installed I assume), I would leave the General Setting as subscriber. Your users will be Admin on their own blogs, but you don’t want them messing about with your root blog.
