Ipstenu, thanks for your help too.

My next problem is the logic behind plug-ins.
I would like the plug-ins activated on the main site. I do not want users to be able to activate plug-ins on their sites/blogs.

When I enable plugins as network admin, I then go into the main site as site admin. I then activate those plug-ins. Some plug-ins appear in site-admin in the left hand navigation wall so that I can customize them. But then others appear to be visible back out in the network admin site.

When I log in as a second user, I can see the plug-ins with the option to activate. But I do not see a way to delete these plug-ins. Most of the plug-ins that I want to use deal with improving the social media aspects of the site as a whole so individual site owners will not need those.

Thanks. I wasn’t sure if it was a buddypress or multi-site issue.

So maybe I am expecting multisite and buddypress to do what it is not setup to do out of the box.

Here’s what I want.
A social networking site for poets. They will have the ability to make groups, create profiles and upload photos and videos. And they can use the forum. But I would also like them to have the ability to blog and choose a template (similar to WordPress.com). But I want it to be a basic template and not one that looks like “social media” type template that is basically buddypress’ template that comes with the software.

If you know, is there a way to disable that template so users cannot choose it? I will ask over there, too. Any advice if you have any will be appreciated.
