I’m working on installing a fresh, brand-new installation of Wordpress using 3.0.1 in network/multi-site mode, with version 1.2.5.2 of Buddypress installed into it. Wordpress’ network mode is set to use subdirectories instead of domains or subdomains. No other plugins are activated, and only Akismet is installed. I’m also using the default Buddypress theme, having made no modifications to it(yet).
During setup, at WordPress’ prompting(based on my operating mode selections), I used the following rules for my .htaccess file…
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
The problem I’m running into is that even with a fresh installation of Buddypress, I cannot seem to get the member profile page links to work, either for the view or the edit screens. They simply re-direct “http://domain.com/members/USERNAME/profile/edit/” back to “http://domain.com/” every time.
Do I need to use different rules for my .htaccess file, or is there another issue going on here? Any ideas or other things I should check on would be great as well.
