No he probado con Buddypress nueva 1.2. Se debe trabajar con wpmu y BuddyPress. Puedes probarlo tú mismo, o esperar a que lo hago por ti.

Se actualizará el complemento con los detalles de compatibilidad en pocos días. Estén atentos:)

Dear Cogmios,

Upload the bp-custom.php into your /wp-content/plugins directory (not /plugins/buddypress ) Alternatively automatic web based installation should also work fine.

Let me know if you have any further queries.

Dear Kale,

Buddypress Ads plugins will assist you to display any kind of ad into your complete site(including member sites). But if it is an banner ad(Google Adsense) the ads will displayed on the top portion of everypage, pushing down the remaining content below the ads. However if you use adbrite (Full page ad, link ads), kontera, text link ads etc you ads will be displayed site wide along with the content.

Also while choosing a theme make sure that the theme supports the latest version of Buddypress. As per to my knowledge many of the buddypress themes are unable to cope-up with the develepment rate of Buddypress! Using older theme, one that is not compatible with the version of BP that you're running, may result into problems.

Personally I'm using the default theme over http://www.belgaumpages.com which goes in accordance to the Buddypres Developments.

My suggestion is to use Google Ads within Adbrite.Under Pricing Options choose "Using Other Ad network" then insert the "Google Adsense Code" into the box(Choose the appropriate cpm to beat). This will make your google ads getting displayed for banner ads, while adbrite displays fullpage ads and Inline Ads. I believe this can be a good revenue strategy for a site powered by Buddypress.

Let me know if you have any further queries.

Hi Sandeep,

I'm actually about to get a premium theme and I need something that would fit it, it will be an absolute nightmare if I have to input adsense code for each page.

Any ideas on how I can incorporate image ads and in post ads into this theme:

A good portion of my website is having the ability to earn ad revenue.

Let me know if you have any ideas.

Thank you,
Kale

Dear Kale,

I have just verified that the plugin is working fine with Wordpress MU 2.9.1 and BuddyPress 1.1.3
Please cross check if you have altered anything else. Also try disabling all other plugins and use only Buddypress Ads for a while to test the correct functioning of Buddpress Ads plugin..

For any help leave me a comment

Dear Kale,

I would require some details from you so that I can further diagonise the problem.
1. What is Wordpress MU version you are using?
2. What is the Buddypress Version you are using?
3. What other plugins have you installed? (You can try disabling all other plugins, and confirm me the error is due to Buddypress Ads Plugin only)

I have been using the same plugin over http://www.belgaumpages.com which is a live site.
