Which installs do what, what is the best place to put them
-
After several failed attempts (header rewrite errors and other things) at installing BuddyPress onto an existing WordPress-MU on a local server (XAMPP) I started over. I have a relatively clean install of wordpressmu (relatively meaning I’ve done some minor tweaking of the appearance). Now, I would like to add BuddyPress. First, since I want to have complete integration, should it be installed in a parallel folder to the wp folder or within it (or does it not matter). Second, there is a download of BuddyPress here, and a plug in called BuddyPress on the WordPress site. Do I use one or the other, in a specific sequence, or one instead of the other? If the last, which one gives me the most flexibility? Assuming I get that far, will both be integrated or do I need further steps. WPMU version 2.84a, mySQL 4,1.14, PHP 5.3.0, Apache 2.0, all on WinXP SP3. Thanks, in advance for any guidance you can provide.

Your install seems clean install, but you should also read this sticky topic.

You’ve figured how to post on this forum, it shouldn’t be difficult to find documents and extra information (searching, etc.), right?
btw, you are right about link missing. We need to call Andy here.
