Installing on existing BuddyPress Based site

This plugin works great for the existing BuddyPress installs too. There is small glitch though.
When you activate this plugin on a Existing BuddyPress based site, It will ask you to setup the BuddyPress again(you will get the link to setup wizard as a notice in the admin panel) on the main site.
Please follow the steps there(ok, not before reading the following lines)
When BuddyPress setup wizard runs, It deletes all the pages associated with various active components(as it treats it as a new install). So, all of your old pages will be deleted, and you will need to create new pages and associate with these components.
Fortunately, There exists a workaround though.
- Deactivate the BP Multi Network Plugin
- Now visit BuddyPress->Pages from your dashboard and select "None" from the drop down list for each of the page. This will update BuddyPress page list to empty.
- Now you can safely enable BP Multi network and visit the main site dashboard and follow the setup without loosing any page. On the Pages screen, just choose appropriate pages to be associated and you are good to go :)
