Registration problem on subdomain sites

    Hi,

    I am hoping for some help. I have downloaded a registration widget that will temporarily help with this problem, but it makes it kind of confusing to register for site visitors.

    When someone tries to register to my main site, it goes to “www.mydomain.com/registration” and all is well. When someone goes to one of the blogs created by a user, the registration takes them to “www.blogname.mydomain.com/registration” they get a page error indicating this page cannot be found.

    Does anyone know a way I could make it so all registration inquiries routed to my main sites registration page?

    Under superadmin, I changed the theme to the twenty ten. It was already in there. I deactivated both buddypress and custom community.

    Then I activated twentyten under “themes”.

    The main site takes me to “https://www.aareaforum.com/wp-signup.php” when I click registration from the home page.

    So with Buddypress it comes up https://www.areaforum.com/registration. Without buddypress it comes up https://www.aareaforum.com/wp-signup.php

    So with Buddypress it comes up https://www.areaforum.com/registration. Without buddypress it comes up https://www.aareaforum.com/wp-signup.php

    And that’s what is supposed to happen.

    Interestingly, if I go to a subdomain, like https://oregon.aareaforum.com/ it remains in the custom community theme.

    themes are controlled on a site by site basis.

    on the https://oregon.aareaforum.com/ there is no option to register.

    you;d have to add a link to the registration page on the main site.

    If you use a regualr widget designed for single WP, then yes. you will have problems.

    Is there a reason you *need* people to register on subsites?

    I would be happy to get rid of the registration option entirely, as I hate having an error message come up.

    The registration is not a widget though, do you have any ideas of how to get rid of the registration option entirely on the user created sites?

    if it’s not a widget, they only way a user can find it is if it’s in the theme on the front side.

    If they wind up on the wp-login page, they should be redirected if they click on it.

    All your problems probably stem from using the buddypress theme on the sub sites. you only need to use a buddypress theme on the MAIN site where the BP profiles are.

    if you want the same look on the subsites, you need to makea COPY of that theme and rip out the bp parts that it is looking for.

    Andrea, this is interesting. I am going to see if I can deactivate buddypress from my subsites. I have a lot of Buddypress plugins that are “network activated”.

    Any advice on how to deactivate without causing myself unnecessary frustration?
