WordPress MAG in one subdomain, Buddypress in other subdomain, but same registration?

    I plan to make an online magazine with wordpress in a subdomain (portal.xxxx.com) and then its community attached in (community.xxxx.com). So I can let certain journalists to make their own blogs with buddypress, and the whole community to grow, with forums, achievements, and so.

    It is possible to do this with the same registration database?

    It’ll be possible to have all media and post from the magazine to be posted in buddypress?

    Yep.

    Buddypress does not make the blogs, though. WordPress does with multisite enabled. Buddypress just does the user profiles.

    And how can I do that? Because it’s not in the buddypress options, I infer I should do a lot of coding.

    Now I’m testing with a wordpress installation in my root xxx.com and a WordPress Magazine theme made compatible with @AndyPeatling Theme Pack plugin. But the tricky bussiness is that now, although it works fine, I don’t have a style in the buddypress things, as the theme is not designed to work with it, and I’m a bit lost of how to stylize these parts.

    Blogs: You have to enable multisite in your WP install first before you can let journalists create their own blogs. Read how to https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

    Template Pack: Here’s a BP Template Pack walkthrough which could shed some light on how to add styles – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/
    Basically, you copy some styling from bp-default theme and tweak it to taste.

    Thanks so much mercime I was looking for something like that. The journalists blogs is something I already knew how to do it, but the style in forums and buddypress related things was killing me. Time to CSS!
