MU & Buddypress = no registration page???

[ddgdaily]

HELP!

Just added the S2M plugin to my MU & buddypress site and now I can't access the registration page, it just redirects to the homepage.

Any help would be great.

Extra info on this... it seems something in one of the original patches has changed my MU options to disable new user registrations... and it's now greyed out so I can't enable them!!!

OK fixed it myself, although it's a work around, here is what i did for anyone else having the same issue.

In the Multisite settings I had selected 'membership only' as I didn't want people having blogs, but when I changed it to 'blog farm' this enabled the normal registration too... weird... but it works now so few!

This didn't work for me.

I think I have a more complex problem.

In my troubleshooting, I found a line in my htaccess file that I believe was added to transform everything to lower case:

RewriteRule ^public_html/(j|c)/([a-z]+)-([0-9]+)\.(js|css)$ /public_html/$1/$2.$4 [L]

I removed that line and now I can access the Buddypress /register page for the home domain. But it still does not display the registration form for connected sites (member blogs) in my multisite setup.

On reflection I've decided that this might be a good thing so long as I can get the registrations to be effective for the connected sites.

Will post an update if I learn something of use.

I can second what ddgdaily describes and I think this may be a bug in s2member:
I am using s2 with the Multisite feature.
when enabling blog farm, the registration page comes up fine.
When disabling blog farm and only enabling allow open registration, it does not set the flag correctly.
What I get in superadmin - options is this: Allow Open Registration = none
.. thanks for feedback and update.

When you say the registration page comes up fine, do you mean the BP page at /register or the standard WP registration page at wp-login.php?action=register page.

Just wondering how isolated is my particular experience with the /register URI.

Hey Guys, I am having the same issue but with just buddypress itself. I also can not figure out how to make s2member use only the buddypress registration form and still take the pay pal payment. I really want to use the buddypress form because it is much better than the integrated s2member custom form in the fact that I can do more with it.
