Ok ??

1) I am assuming that dreamweaver would ‘complain’ if there were any faults, but I glanced at it quickly and no faults or “” spring to my eyes!
I put the code directly under the MySQL stuff like so:

/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

// define default blog theme (for newly created blogs by members)
define('WP_DEFAULT_THEME', 'buddybuilder');

2) The folder does not have weird cases: /public_html/wp-content/themes/buddybuilder

I get what you are saying and each site can have their own theme and plugins. The thing is that the people coming on this site are not necessarily tech savvy and also may not necessarily want a separate blog. They just want to talk about cars and write about their build and restoration of their cars, for others to read and learn from. I think the majority would just like this to appear on a ‘tab’ in their profile. It may confuse them if they leave the main site and lose the navigation menu with it..
I’m trying to think what other options I have..? any ideas?

hmh. I do not have twenty ten, so for easiness I activated buddybuilder, which is my theme for the main site. That does work but reverts to default settings and not the ones I have on the main site.
BUT this would mean I/the blog creator would have to activate themes manually each time a blog is created, is there a different way..?
AND I would actually like the blog to stay within the main site, like so . This particular post is within the main site.. or is that because it is posted in the main site’s blog..? Can I have all blogs to appear like this, but still be the member’s own on their profile or within their Car Club (group)?

Thanks for answering all the questions ?? and sorry there are so many :S , it is just all rather different to a single WP blog site!!!

Thanks Ipstenu,
I had tried that exact code already, but have now put it higher up. I had it above the multiside calls already, and now put it underneath the MySQL settings, but the blogs are still blank… example: Mini Cooper Blog.

Does anyone know why my website’s main blog link is linked to the website’s homepage? this is not where the blogs are.. see Driverszone Blogs.
Or would that possibly be because in the reading settings I have a Static Page set up and nothing for posts yet? (purely because there are no relevant pages I could link it to and I’ve yet to create one specifically)

Cheers Andrea and Ipstenu for your help so far! ??

Hi Andrea,
Thank you, I tried putting

define(‘WP_DEFAULT_THEME’, ‘buddybuilder’);

above the line of

/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

in wp-config.php in the root
But blog still blank. I also tried

define(‘WP_DEFAULT_THEME’, ‘wp-content/themes/buddybuilder’);

but that also didn’t change things.

Or, explain how you did this:
Yes I changed the default to the same theme that I use for the site,

I changed the default theme by deleting all other themes making sure only buddy builder was left.

When that didn’t work I installed Brajesh’s plugin Default Theme For Blogs and chose buddybuilder as the default theme (which is the only choice) in the settings described in the plugin link…

Hi Andrea,

Thank you for your reply!
Yes I changed the default to the same theme that I use for the site, as I want to blogs to stay within the same theme and within the site.
You see, this is a social networking site for car enthusiast that want to write about their refurbishing of their car/rallies they go to/etc and I’d like this blog to be like a tab on their profile and not actually leave the site.
Is this not possible?

I have the same problem as everyone, i tried the code: nada, i tried deactivating all plugins: nada.. is there any solve to this at all? I don’t know much about code so i am relying on you smart one’s too to figure it out… :S

I had the same problem and i had no img tags in my css, have now tried to add a view to resolve the problem and its seem better but still my images are all over the place, my html viewer says my images should be left, center, right etc, so surely they should be nicely in a row as is in my editor, yet they are all over the place. EVEN when i delete all img tags that i added.
this is the page where all img should be in a row but are not
