In WPMU Trunk Filter bp_core_filter_buddypress_theme_root doesn't seem to fire in bp_core_get_buddypress_themes() for bp-core-admin.php

This is using WordPress MU trunk, and I am aware that there is more work to merge in the changes for WordPress Core 2.8.x. So this may be due to changes in WordPress MU Trunk that have affected BuddyPress.

For some reason the theme dropdown under the BuddyPress General settings is showing the default list of WordPress themes instead of the themes in bp-themes.

I haven't tracked down the reason yet. But I do see that this is not firing in bp-core.php.

	add_filter( 'theme_root', 'bp_core_filter_buddypress_theme_root' );
	$themes = get_themes();

The 'theme_root' filter in get_themes() seems to be returning the standard wp-content/themes directory for some strange reason.

This occurs on two systems I test on. One is with a hosting company and the other is a server I maintain directly.

Confirming that ​WordPress MU Trunk r1806 has this issue.

Really bugging me, this should be working!

This cleared up on a few WordPress MU test sites as of ​WordPress MU 2.8 Beta r1834, but the theme_root filter is not running on one test website configured from a sub-directory location like ​http://example.com/stupid_place_for_wpmu/. This is a Dreamhost PS site (I know - there's your problem).

Which is really odd since I have another test site on a server that I maintain using an apache alias configuration that works fine example ​http://otherexample.com/other_stupid_place_for_wpmu/.

I will try to do another test site in a sub-directory on the server I maintain, but this may be an issue with Dreamhost or their php version.

Put a bp_core_filter_buddypress_theme_root in bp_core_add_admin_menu

[ev3rywh3re]

I can reproduce this on multiple systems as of WordPress MU r1839.

The only fix I have so far was to place add_filter( 'theme_root', 'bp_core_filter_buddypress_theme_root' ) in the bp_core_add_admin_menu() function. There is probably a better fix than that.
