BP Compatibility Trouble

  • @triznic

    Participant

    Ok, this is driving me CRAZY! I am trying to update intrepidity 1.5.1 by Top Blog Formula for BuddyPress. I have gone thru and checked out the 13 files to change the html in and either it isnt making sense to me or I am missing something. It is throwing my sidebar to the bottom of my content area and all my content is slammed to the left side. I reeeeeeeally tried all that I could think of before posting but I need some help to fix this issue. Thank you so much in advance!!
    here is what it is doing —-> http://www.dubgolf.com/groups/

    Looking at that page I can see straight away that #sidebar is nested inside #left-column, compare that to one of your non BP pages e.g index.php or page.php and you’ll see the difference, always compare a non bp with a bp to see how the structure needs to run and obviously the BP pages must follow the structure of your themes WP files. #sidebar must come after you have closed the left-column as each is floated left and right respectively.

    Looks like you’re missed adding another div and/or closed one too early. Post your page.php/index.php file at pastebin.com and post the URI generated here.

    EDIT – hey hnla, didn’t see you there. i took too long a time to answer :-)

    Pastebin?

    Open up your WP theme’s page.php with text editor.
    Copy what’s in it and paste the code at http://pastebin.com and click on “submit” link.
    That webpage will now have a new URI. Copy that URI and paste it here.

    http://pastebin.com/XTajFDqr sorry bout that. That’s pretty cool!

    Here is the index http://pastebin.com/Ls1rYn1B

    No worries. And yeah, pastebin is cool :-)

    At top of activity/index.php, replace
    `

    `
    with
    `

    `

    At the bottom of that file, replace
    `

    `
    with
    `

    `

    In addition, you might like to change the header tag used in BP template files to match your theme’s. So for activity/index.php, change
    `

    `
    to
    `

    `

    Thats not looking like what I have in the code?? Im a cry :-( lol

    @hnla

    And did you read what I wrote and try adjusting according to my suggestion?

    @triznic

    Participant

    yeah..hmmm

    hnla here is my sidebar stuff from the css

    ‘ #left-col {width: 616px; float: left; padding: 28px 0 0 0; overflow:hidden }

    #sidebar {float: right; width: 275px; color: #525252; padding: 1px 0 10px }

    * html body #sidebar {margin-top:-1px } ‘

    @hnla

    Participant

    We’re not concerned with the applied styles but with the markup, is the #sidebar being flowed after the #left-col has closed?

    @mercime

    Participant

    @triznic have you tried to work on what I posted above?

    get_sidebar appears in footer.php for the intrepidity theme https://themes.svn.wordpress.org/intrepidity/1.5.1/footer.php so following the structure of your theme onto the activity/index.php file, you don’t add any get_sidebar calls in the other BP template files

    @triznic

    Participant

    yeah I tried that but like I said it didnt look like what I had in there and there was still no change.

    @triznic

    Participant

    ok so it makes sense the footer sidebar thing. but how come I still get my sidebar in content area on bottom. I know this has to be something so easy but it is drivin me nuts. Once I get it I will never forget it but right now……grrrr
