In reply to: Background and Sidebar Issues
unless you have physically made changes, or have removed the get_sidebar from the files.
What have you imported? What styles from bp have you put into your theme? the entire default.css?
In reply to: Background and Sidebar IssuesLooks like you implemented some CSS from the buddypress default theme, most likely a Max-width css attribute. It’s overlapping the sidebar. I couldn’t pinpoint it off the top of my head…
It’s probably under the `/* > Global Elements` or `/* > Container`
In reply to: Background and Sidebar IssuesNo, not the buddypress css, your Theme’s Style.CSS.
The easiest way to access this is in the wordpress admin –> Go down to the theme editor, and go down to the bottom to your style.css.
Now find this piece of css:
`/* Main Content
*/#content {
width:960px;
margin: 0px auto;`right below the last line, add
`background-color: #85C8F2;`In reply to: Buddypress pages not workingDid you read in the codex page given to you?
To fix this problem, enter the WordPress admin panel > Settings > Pemalinks – set to any configuration other than the default configuration. The mod_rewrite must be enabled on your server for pretty permalinks to work.
In reply to: Background and Sidebar IssuesSo, go into your theme’s Style.css and add:
`background-color: #85C8F2;` under the #content {
In reply to: Background and Sidebar IssuesWell right now, it looks like your homepage background color is a light blue, it’s just a color code am i right?
So you will need to apply that color to your wrapper css:
`{ background color: #ffff; }` (replace #fff to your appropriate color)
In reply to: Background and Sidebar IssuesI’m sorry that your stack
.So I tried to comprehend as much as I possibly could from what you are writing. Are you trying to style the background of some of the components of buddypress? Like profiles and groups to match your background image?
It’s hard to get a picture also, because your site is on maintenance mode right now
In reply to: i need immediate helpeLooks like you got it sorted out, the registration seems to be working.
In reply to: How do I add a menu item on the profile page?Wait… do you mean a subnav? Like for instance, under profile, the subtabs are “Edit Profile, and Change Cignature?”
Could be done, wrap the bp_core_new_subnav_item call in a function which is hooked on xprofile_setup_nav action;
`/* Add the subnav items */
bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( ‘name’ => __( ‘My Friends’, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘slug’ => ‘my-friends’, ‘parent_url’ => $friends_link, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->friends->slug, ‘screen_function’ => ‘friends_screen_my_friends’, ‘position’ => 10, ‘item_css_id’ => ‘friends-my-friends’ ) );
bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( ‘name’ => sprintf( __( ‘Requests (%d)‘, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_friend_get_total_requests_count() ), ‘slug’ => ‘requests’, ‘parent_url’ => $friends_link, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->friends->slug, ‘screen_function’ => ‘friends_screen_requests’, ‘position’ => 20, ‘user_has_access’ => bp_is_my_profile() ) );if ( $bp->current_component == $bp->friends->slug ) {
if ( bp_is_my_profile() ) {
$bp->bp_options_title = __( ‘My Friends’, ‘buddypress’ );
} else {
$bp->bp_options_avatar = bp_core_fetch_avatar( array( ‘item_id’ => $bp->displayed_user->id, ‘type’ => ‘thumb’ ) );
$bp->bp_options_title = $bp->displayed_user->fullname;
}`There ya go, 2 in one!
In reply to: How do I add a menu item on the profile page?Of coarse, simple. I’m understanding you now, just add another tab right?
Adding the screen function will add the tab next to your profile markup tab: Add to bp-custom.php. You were almost correct on your first approach.

`function my_test_setup_nav() {
global $bp;
bp_core_new_nav_item( array( ‘name’ => __( ‘test’ ), ‘slug’ => ‘test’, ‘parent_url’ => $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->slug . ‘/’, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->slug, ‘screen_function’ => ‘my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen’, ‘position’ => 40 ) );bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( ‘name’ => __( ‘Home’ ), ‘slug’ => ‘test_sub’, ‘parent_url’ => $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->slug . ‘/’, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->slug, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->slug, ‘screen_function’ => ‘my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen’, ‘position’ => 20, ‘item_css_id’ => ‘test_activity’ ) );
function my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen() {
//add title and content here – last is to call the members plugin.php template
add_action( ‘bp_template_title’, ‘my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen_title’ );
add_action( ‘bp_template_content’, ‘my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen_content’ );
bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( ‘bp_core_template_plugin’, ‘members/single/plugins’ ) );
}
function my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen_title() {
echo ‘something’;
}
function my_profile_page_function_to_show_screen_content() {echo ‘weee content’;
}
}`In reply to: Problem After Installing BuddypressSometimes on most regular hosted servers, the emails can take up to an hour, yes, and hour to receive. Especially if there is alot of activity going on on your site. The more activity, the longer it takes.
I could probably tell you for a fact, they are getting send, just taking extremely slow.
In reply to: Buddypress pages not workingAll of them, or just some? Read this: https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/navigation-links-return-404-errors/
In reply to: ERROR: There was an error when creating the topicGo to a group that you have created, your the admin of the group. Go to the Group’s Admin –> Group Settings.
Now see where it says “Enable discussion forum” box? uncheck- recheck about 4 times, then click save at the bottom and try to create another topic
In reply to: Checking if activity entry is a forum topic or notPlease don’t replicate topics. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/group-activity-by-keyword/
You need to be more specific on what you are trying to do, I can’t understand what you are saying.
In reply to: How do I add a menu item on the profile page?Just creating new profile page category from my understanding??? Just to go your buddypress admin page under profile setup and create new fields there, no need to hook anything.
P.S, why on your activity page is the header content below the avatar? Go into your theme’s CSS file and remove
`div#item-header div#item-header-content {
float:left;
}`To clear things up, it should look a-lot nicer.
What do you want to change to “Change Picture”, the title of the page, or URL, or what?
if you want to change the title label, go into /members/single/profile/change-avatar.php and change the
`
` to whatever
if you have template pack installed, or have a child theme, it won’t change on bp updates.
Oh, don’t put the code in bp-core.php
If you have template pack installed, go into your theme, and go to members/single/profile/edit.php and put it next to the
`<input type="submit" name="profile-group-edit-submit" id="profile-group-edit-submit" value=" ” />`
Your code should be something like `Next`
It should appear like this: Next

P.S, if you have more than 2 profile categories, the second category will just redirect to itself, I don’t have time to post the string needed, I’ll do it later.
Theme author (TY) couldn’t see the issue, but did say it could have something to do with file size, and it not being able to handle the request.
This didn’t make much sense, because most of everybody is having this issue that is using arras. He said it also could be a jquery conflict.
Anybody can do testing on my site if you wish.
I don’t think we ever had a version !.2.6
In reply to: How to make group tab the homepage?Go into Header.php and change: `<a href="//”`
to
`<a href="<="//”`
In reply to: Block replies in forumLike a topic for just admins and mods?
In reply to: Threaded (nested) comments in the default theme?Right now, If you like threaded comments, use Disqus: http://disqus.com/
Ok, now I am under suspicion of an conflicting plugin.
Deactivate ALL your plugins and see if it’s a plugin.
NO, this is NOT a buddypress problem.
If you mark a user as Spammer, does it block him from logging in?
Use a plugin called “wp-ban” to ban users
Mmhm…… if you create another public group, is it public or hidden?
What versions of wp and bp are you using?
