Hey, I want to modify the members widget by adding additional markup etc. I really want to avoid changing the plugin core, I’d rather take the code and make a plugin or place the code in something like functions.php or bp-custom.php to over write it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction or explain how I can do this?

I’m busy creating my theme and although I’m getting some success with some of it I’m hitting a wall with the activity area.

I managed to fix this, basically the page template needs to be in your buddypress directory inside your theme. /your_theme/buddypress/page.php

Hey, I’m having an issue assigning a custom page template to the Buddypress page (eg Groups).

It keeps taking the standard page.php even after I select the custom page template in the page.

Anyone else getting this?

Does anyone know of a plugin for ranking profiles.

I have this gym site which I have a community of people who compete against each other, I’d like the ability for them to put their results in and the plugin ranks them from 1 to whatever.

If anyone has seen something like this please shoot me a link!

It’s a theme, I just thought a plugin might have this code, I will try place that in the header.php

Hi

Is there any code I can use to check if BP is installed, I’m sure there’s something for plugins.

Thats how I’ve worked it in the example, but I have to go into plugins/buddypress/ directory to edit that, I want to know if I can copy those parameters over to my functions.php and overwrite the core buddypress […]

It defines the sizes of the avatars, large and medium, I’ve set medium to be slightly larger than the original. But I don’t like modifying the core.
