UserBlog URL Correction for BP Not Installed in Main Site VHOST yes

[mercime]

In the course of testing BP in different scenarios thru mirror sites of live ones (to prepare for eventuality friends/clients would want BP in their installs), I installed BP in another test site with subdomain structure in blog_id_85 and defined it in wp-config.php - WPMU 2.9.1.1, BP 1.2-trunk-r2479, VHOSt=yes

1. Created new blog/site in admin dashboard e.g. ​http://community.examplesite.com/
2. When user creates a blog in this scenario, blog URL is now e.e.

​http://mercime.community.examplesite.com/

While in my other test environment with existing site with VHOST=no, if BP is installed in blog_id_103, e.g. ​http://samplesite.com/blogid103/ , when a user creates a new blog, the user blog URL = ​http://samplesite.com/mercime
It is the same level as where BP is installed.

Hopefully, in VHOST=yes, setup of new user blog would be on the same level as where BP is installed i.e. ​http://mercime.examplesite.com

Thank you.

@mercime is this still an issue? There have been a lot of changes to WP and BP since then. Namely, the WP/WPMU merge.

@cnorris23 @DJPaul Yes. This is still an issue. Just created a new test installation to check this.
Sorry for the delay.

WP 3.1 with BP 1.2.8

• WordPress is installed in domain root. ​http://example.com
• Created a Network with Subdomain structure.
• Created a new subsite ​http://buddypress.example.com
• Defined BP in blog ID 2
• Installed BuddyPress and activated bp-default theme
• Via BP Admin Bar > My Blogs > Create a Blog! > page panel specifically shows

Create a Blog
/etc. etc. etc.

Blog Domain:
_(space for subdomain name) . example . com

• Filled up blog domain as mercime.example.com and clicked button "Create a Blog"
• New blog shows up as ​http://mercime.buddypress.example.com/

and not ​http://mercime.example.com/ as expected.

Need to check what's going on here.

(In [4438]) Correct domain when user creates a new site through bp-blogs, in a subdomain setup. Fixes #1796

Thank you DJPaul. Fix worked in new installation.
