Share the same uploads dir for a BuddyPress multiblog set up

bp-custom.php

<?php
/**
 * Multiblog must have been set for it to work :)

function rbaccaro_set_multiblog_shared_upload_dir() {

    return;

Hi @imath,

That worked just fine.

Thank you again,

@imath I've tried this great looking piece of code on my multiblog but it does not work, it shows a grey area on the main site and subsite after uploading an image.

Is there a fix for this?

thanks, thought I'd just mention this still works

Just chiming in to say this worked like a charm. Thank you!!
