How to install BuddyPress
|
|
'''''''''''''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
**********************************************
|
|
Step 1: Make sure WPMU is installed correctly.
|
|
**********************************************
|
|
|
|
This is the most important step of all. Before you try and install
|
|
BuddyPress, you must make sure WPMU is installed and working correctly.
|
|
|
|
The WPMU support forums are a great resource. http://mu.wordpress.org/forums
|
|
|
|
Please test your installation first. Make sure you can register and activate
|
|
new blogs. Make sure you can post and leave comments on blogs. Make sure you
|
|
are not getting blank screens or 404's anywhere on the install.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**************************************************************************
|
|
Step 2: Add the BuddyPress plugins to wp-content/plugins/buddypress directory
|
|
**************************************************************************
|
|
|
|
Drop everything into the 'wp-content/plugins/buddypress' directory for your installation.
|
|
You will then need to activate BuddyPress in the "Plugins" admin panel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**************************************************
|
|
Step 3: Move the themes to their correct locations
|
|
**************************************************
|
|
|
|
The home theme is not required, you can use a standard WordPress theme if you wish.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use the home theme, move:
|
|
From: 'wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/buddypress-home'
|
|
To: 'wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/'
|
|
|
|
Move the default BuddyPress member theme:
|
|
From: 'wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/buddypress-member/'
|
|
To: 'wp-content/bp-themes/buddypress-member/'
|
|
|
|
|
|
**************************************************************
|
|
Step 4: Log in as an administrator and activate the home theme
|
|
**************************************************************
|
|
|
|
If you plan on using the default home blog theme (it is optional) you will need to enable
|
|
and activate it.
|
|
|
|
Head to the WordPress admin panel, when logged in as a site administrator. Go to the
|
|
"Site Admin > Themes" menu and select the "Yes" radio option for "BuddyPress Home Theme".
|
|
|
|
Next, go to "Appearance > Themes" and activate the "BuddyPress Home Theme" for the root
|
|
blog.
|
|
|
|
You will want to go back to "Site Admin > Themes" once the you have activated it for the
|
|
root blog so that no one else can use that theme.
|
|
|
|
If you have multiple member themes installed, you will need to go to "Site Admin > BuddyPress"
|
|
and make sure you have selected the member theme you would like to use from the dropdown
|
|
menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
******************************************************************
|
|
Step 5: Create your default profile fields and enable registration
|
|
******************************************************************
|
|
|
|
If you have installed the Extended Profiles component, log into your installation as
|
|
the administrator and in the administration panel head to:
|
|
|
|
- Site Admin > Profiles
|
|
|
|
Here you can set up profile groups and fields for users to fill in. Any fields you add
|
|
to the "Basic" group will appear on the signup form along with an avatar upload option.
|
|
|
|
** If this is a brand new WPMU install ** you will need to enable registrations. Head to:
|
|
|
|
- Site Admin > Options
|
|
|
|
Check the "Enabled" radio button under "Allow new registrations" and hit the update
|
|
options button. You can enable/disable blog registrations if you wish.
