One thing I’ve always wanted with WPMU is for users to set their own sitewide language. For example, I work with a number of Japanese sites and if a user sets their blog as Japanese, then English speakers who are members of the site and perhaps of a Japanese ‘community’ blog are forced to try to read the Japanese in the Dashboard. I actually wrote a plugin for this but ultimately couldn’t get it to work because of the way
/wp-settings.php
inits the $locale_file
before the user.

I was thinking that the locale_file file should be set after we have user data, so we can allow a registered user to have a single file. Perhaps there is a way round this but I could work it out.

Comments from bp forums:
1.Hi, I’ve got the members theme installed in /wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember but I’m still getting the message: You do not have any BuddyPress themes installed…. when I visit the members/blogs/groups links using the default home theme. The URLs look good.

Also, when I hover over an avatar, the URL is showing /index.php/members/jwinn and it resolves to /members/jwinn with the above error, too.

2.Hi all, did you tested BuddyPress with latest WPMU 2.8.1 (beta)? I tried it, but could not create groups and there were also other problems… Did you manage to run your BuddyPress with WPMU 2.8.1?

Here are some tiny issues that rather than putting in the official tracker I’ll pop in here:

wp-content/blogs.php has CRLF line endings. A couple of others do too but I can’t remember which.

wp-admin/wpmu-blogs.php

Lines 350 – 360 approx
You have an ampersand but needs to be encoded. 3 cases on the variable $url2
