BuddyPress and Mystique theme

    @itsalltech1

    I am trying to install BuddyPress on the Mystique theme. I am using the compatibility plugin. However, I can’t find what I need to edit in each of the files to make the BuddyPress pages display properly. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

    I solved that issue, but now the sidebar on my homepage is extended and I can’t change it. It only happens on the homepage.

    you are loosing the Mystique body class so anything you set in admin for site layout is being lost.

    try something like

    function fix_body_class() {
    return false;
    }
    add_filter( 'bp_get_the_body_class', 'fix_body_class', 10, 2 );

    I tried posting that into functions.php, but it did not work. Should I try it in another file?

    Sorry, I don’t have my copy here with me so can’t check how I did it now.

    Yes, this would go into your themes functions.php

    If you ask andy or lots others here should know, you need to disable buddypress body classes.

    I’m presuming you will also have issues with conflicting javascript from the theme, I know I did.

    I know someone else here on the boards was also working on this theme, maybe ask them.

    You have to replace them, and Mystique have extra divs.

    try

    remove_filter( 'body_class', 'bp_get_the_body_class', 10, 2 );

    in your functions.php

    That worked! Except for some reason now, BuddyPress is using the default Mystique theme, instead of the customized theme like the rest of my site. Any ideas?

    I thought you wanted BuddyPress to use the Mystique look & feel?

    Yes, but if you were to look at my homepage and then go to a BuddyPress page, the color of the header text is different and the font is different. It’s almost like two different versions of Mystique

    Thats because there is no Mystique styles for BuddyPress in tour style.css & Mystique doesn’t recognise the BuddyPress pages.

    You could add the styles yourself, or maybe an easier way, create a blank page in your wp-admin, call it activity & see if Mystique page styles are picked by your activity page then.

    Creating a new page worked, but that only worked for the base of the page. Example: itsalltech.com/activity. However, if you go into a subpage of Activity, it will not work. How can I customize the CSS?

    I’ve been playing around with it for a bit. DM me your email & I’ll send what I have.
