Blog posts not showing in activity stream

[modemlooper]

Blog posts in non-multisite installs are not appearing in the activity stream.

This is because the Blogs component is not loaded. This is a regression from BP 1.2.9 where the Blogs component was being loaded (because it wasn't explicitly disabled) and posts were appearing in the activity stream.

Just re-read that. Yikes, grammar!

Patch attached re-configures site tracking component to load for both ms and non-ms. It restores activity stream posting.
Patch also removes unused bp_core_admin_dashboard() from early 1.3 development. Please help by eyeballing the changes, and testing.

Questions:
1) step_pages() -- had duplicated descriptions for Site, Forum and Group component. I've done a real edit on those descriptions, and they might need tweaking.

2) Can we remove step_ms_update() now?

Boone & I discussed this a little on IRC. We'll need to tweak this patch so that:

1) Force $bp->blogs->has_directory to false when !is_multisite()
2) Modify set up wizard so that it only prompts to create pages for has_directory components

Thanks for the patch, DJPaul. Looks mostly good. I have made a few tweaks:

1) Changed some wording, especially to account for the fact that non-MS installations will not have a Sites directory.
2) Set $bp->blogs->has_directory to is_multisite()
3) Fixed the places where the original patch wouldn't apply cleanly because of recent whitespace cleanup :)

step_ms_update(): I think we need to keep step_ms_update(). Someone who has disabled the Blogs component on non-MS may very well want it enabled on MS. Moreover, even if we assume that activation status will remain, we need to prompt to create a Sites directory page (since one does not exist on non-MS).

->has_directory during update: It's not possible to check this consistently, because during initial installation of BP, the rest of the BP files have not been loaded, with the result that the components have not registered themselves, and ->has_directory is not populated one way or the other. As an alternative, I have simply opted not to show the Sites option during step_pages() when !is_multisite(), with the result that no page is created. I think this is the best we can do at the moment.

I found/fixed an i18n text domain error. I also changed the description of the site tracking component depending if you're looking at it on multisite or non-multisite. Talking about "…across your entire network" on a non-multisite doesn't make sense.
