 Seems like this bug has been around for years: In a multisite environment,
 when users are allowed to create additional subsites, activating
 Buddypress breaks this function. In the dashboard, when you click on "my
 sites" -> "create new sites" the logged-in user never arrives at the form
 to actually create a new site, but is redirected to the homepage instead.

 PROPOSED FIX - in bp-members-function.php find this (line 2069):

 {{{
 if ( ! empty( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] ) && false === strpos(
 $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 'wp-signup.php' ) && ( 'register' != $action ) )
 {
 }}}


 REPLACE WITH:

 {{{
 if ( ! empty( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] ) && ( 'register' != $action ) ) {
 }}}



 That way, new registrations are forwarded to the Buddypress form, while
 "create new site" is handled by WP Core.
