Digital Citizen: How to set up Wordpress MU + Buddypress

  • jayx · 6 months ago
    Hey thanks for this - I am familiar with the setup routine on my reseller, but I am currently having some difficulty setting this up on my local development server running Ubuntu ... I reckon this answers a number of issues that we are experiencing with setup. I'll post again with progress.

    Thanks again :)

    Rocking! When you post (to your own blog), let me know and I'll link to it :)

    and if you had to manually start mysql, best you set it up to auto-start, else next time you reboot you won't have a database :)

    True! I guess autostart commands can go in a separate tutorial. Generally, when you install mysql (via yum or apt-get), the autostart directives are all configured, but it might fail to start for some or other inane reason...

    Thanks for such a useful post.. Bookmarked..
    Do u have any article on how to migrate form wordpress to WP MU??

    Yeah, that's a tricky one. I did that for MoralFibre.co.za, and it's not really a very easy thing to do. I'll probably post a tutorial on that soon, though, so stay tuned ;)
