    It was not working for me using standard post type, however at the same time I prefer to seperate member blogs from site blogs as we would all have different styles and quality acceptance.

    I do agree and appreciate some sort of documentation…and I believe many others would as well.

    FINALLY!!!

    I figured it out.
    For those that may have issues getting this to work, here are the steps I needed to take in order to get this working.

    Download and install BuddyPress Simple Front End Post LATEST VERSION
    Downloaded and install BuddyBlog LATEST VERSION
    Download and install Custom Post Type UI LATEST VERSION
    Download and install Post Type Switcher LATEST VERSION

    Create both Custom Post Type and Taxonomies, pay close attenion to the field hints to determine what text you should add. I used “user_blog_posts” for my post type and “user_blog” for my Taxonomies. Copy and paste your Post Type function and your Taxonomies into your function.php file. Then go to BuddyBlog settings set your Post Type and Taxonomies to your newly created Post Type and Taxonomy.

    Create a new Page using a title of the link to your newly created BuddyBlog. Save. Quick edit and assign the post type to your new post type title. Then create a menu item using the page you created.

    I hope I explained this will without having to write an entire tutorial!!!

    Good luck!
