Frontend development & Theming
Public Group active 1 week, 5 days ago agoThis group is dedicated to exploring and highlighting aspects of the Core BP application
that would benefit from improvement and enhancement effecting the presentational tier or frontend output.
Proposed changes or issues reported are in respect of the core files that are responsible for interacting
with the presentational layer or theme files and are to be regarded as non theme specific i.e
the changes are to suit the generic nature of UI/UX and of theme development, child theme, or full custom theme regardless.
Examples might be core JavaScript behavior, identifying and removing core markup
e.g pipe characters or middots, unshackling core behaviour from markup allowing freedom to remove unnecessary
markup without fear of breaking site functionality.
This group runs as complimentary to the BP-default http://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-default/ group as
it is envisioned that the two groups will have areas of crossover common to both and both benefit from the other.
Ideally issues reported or raised are with a view to raising a ticket on
trac and / or providing a patch for the core devs approval. when sufficient
agreement is reached a ticket should be raised on trac.
Please Note: the group is not simply for moaning or a feature wishlist, please avoid this,
it’s purpose is in dealing with existing core aspects and suggesting enhancements to improve things.

concatenated selectors are always an option just tend to shy away from those out of habit I guess due to certain browsers historically getting their big girl knickers in a twist with anything so advanced or complex as chaining classes
I’m working exclusively on trunk as well so seeing what that profile/group link shows. [...] -

Seems a bit different in trunk, e.g. http://testbp.org/members/djpaul/groups/. Can’t you just use “.directory.groups” on the selector? It’s always going to pick up “groups” on this page as it always lists the current component

Might be missing the point here but with do_actions I question where they occur and whether they are all necessary? Yes they can be moved around in the theme files quite easily, but it’s more a question the more there are the more problematic it becomes not knowing if they might be used and for [...]

Aide Memoir or food for thought BP adds various classes to the $wp_classes array to add to the body class. One of those added via the bp_get_the_body_class() function is ‘groups’ this I had proposed using to hook rules to the croups directory however the class ‘groups’ is also generated when in a profile/account page looking at [...]

hnla started the forum topic BP Activity comments Vs. WP comments in the group Frontend development & Theming:
Raised recently in a post was the question as to whether a member could get their activity comments to display numbers, as that puzzled me in as much as I knew they should be able in theory I looked further. WP uses a call for comments that returns the looped li elements for each comment [...]
