    Odd.. My posts are not getting posted!

    I’m trying again.

    Yessssh. I was looking at a cached version of the site and the one you were looking at was horrible. I’m not sure what happened to that theme, but I switched it to the one I was looking at.

    Take a look when you get the chance, I’d appreciate any feedback and help.

    BTW I just bought wordpress and buddypress for dummies.

    Hmm.. A lot of what you just said sounds like Chinese, but I’m going to dive in later and give it a shot.

    My original blog;http://www.warrior-scholar.com/blog/

    Is laid out the way I like it. But when I installed buddy press keeping it that way did not seem possible because I was over my head with the .css

    If I could get it to look like the original with the bp like this;

    http://www.longislandmartialarts.org/scnew.jpg

    That would be great. I get to have my cake and eat it too. In that capture I moved the tabs down into the content part of the page (wishful thinking since I don’t know what i am doing).

    My biggest problem is when I run my old theme through the correcting plug in all the areas such as forums, groups etc. look wonky and less colorful.

    What I would like is to get it to look like my old blog (screencapture) with the buddy press running and the elemenst (forums, groups etc) maintaining their visual appeal. Somehow the filter/plugin strips out or changes visual elements.

    Again thanks for all the help. I appreciate it.

    Hmm.. That’s Odd. I changed it back to the original theme but Buddy press is still running. I changed it back.

    Thanks, I appreciate the help.

    Thanks folks, so far so good. I moved the tabs over fixed the background but I still have four fixes I need to do;

    Here is an updated screenshot;

    http://www.longislandmartialarts.org/screenshotbuddypress.jpg

    #1 FIXED – By fixing the background graphic I exposed a rounded corner that I need to make straight. FIXED!

    #2 I want to get rid of the search field in the header

    #3 The white border from the content page extends past the sidebar. I want to get rid of that

    #4 The text seems to be forced over by the avatar (upper left) is there a way to flow the text around that? It looks goofy with the big gap on the left side of the page and it’s waste space.

    #5 Not illustrated, I’d like to move the avatar in the side menu under the Advanced text widget.

    Again thanks for the help. I’ve been over to wordpress.org and help over there is scarce. Nice to see you folks willing to help out a newbie.

    I’m having the same problem, the white screen of death.

    I disable all plugins changed the theme to default and still can’t run the plugin. I renamed to via the control panel to get wp back up and running.

    Help, I’d really like to get this plug in up and running.
