With Theme Compatibility BP doesn’t have control over sidebars, bp-default theme used to hardcode messages to it’s sidebar. This is an issue discussed on a ticket, the interim solution was to feed site messages into the WP footer, and add default styling to position them over the site towards top of the page.
The solution is a widget, which is simple enough, I ran one up, but harder for users is knowing how to disable the existing feed into the wp_footer
Thanks for the reply Hugo
Excuse me, if I understand you said that this feature is only available for the bp-default. Right?
However, the theme I’m using is the bp-default. Just changed the CSS to customize it.
Before, in BuddyPress 1.6, the notification appeared normal. After the updates to 1.7 and 1.8 is that it stopped appearing.
What do you think?
check the core theme files sidebar.php the message function should be hardcoded there, is for me and is running and I test on trunk.
