Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Template / Theme Question in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 3 months ago
@osirisravenwood to answer your last question, you work in the child theme NOT the parent, as soon as your running a child theme all work happens in that theme not the parent for the very reason you state earlier in requiring files re-adding back to theme on any updates, and the reason child themes exist in the main.
Please do read links left on…[Read more]

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Global Notifications Widget keeps showing out of sidebar in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 6 months ago
Users are either meant to ‘close’ the message or the one responsible for issuing it deactivates it while leaving the widget in place – having the widget activate is about the only check that made sense at the time as a means to cancelling out the default message positioning as a overlay across top of site, remove the widget and that default…[Read more]

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic BP adds p-tag to profile name whenever the profile gets edited. Why? in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 6 months ago
I can’t replicate this issue on a fairly standard install running trunk, yes the BP display strings are wrapped in paragraph tags(nothing wrong in that) but I do not see that transposing to any edit screens in backend or on adminbar. Is it possible you have plugins running that might be involving themselves in the profile process?

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Buddypress 1.6.1 to 2.0 in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 7 months ago
Moving your files under a folder in root of theme as either ‘community’ or ‘buddypress’ with the folder structure as seen under BP’s bp-legacy folder will allow you to overload all the templates to be used by BP first if found in preference to it’s own copies with the benefit of using the bp functions file and other assets styles js both of which…[Read more]

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Placing a set profile filed beside users name in h1 title in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 7 months ago
Why did you not use the given example in the file?
bp_member_profile_data();
That’s a self echoing function so need for ‘echo’ & it can be used in a members loop.
You can pass the args as an array but as ‘field’ & ‘user_id’ but again in the example it shows you simply (‘field=my-field’)
You can use the function as you have but no need to use…[Read more]

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Placing a set profile filed beside users name in h1 title in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 7 months ago
A familiarity with BP templates is going to be essential here so if you aren’t first step is to check the codex and give a quick read to the guides on working with Theme Compatibility which will help explain how to create copies of the BP templates for modification; then an understanding of how WP child themes work so you can safely modify files…[Read more]

@barney92 Not really the best way of responding nor is having a ‘lousy week’ an excuse I’m afraid, lets just back off the forum until we are having a better week is generally the best approach.

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Making Plugin activity show in Activitiy Stream in the forum Third Party Plugins 10 years, 7 months ago
It is not a case of not being willing to help but as @shanebp pointed out how to help is the problem, generally on tech forums an idea of what has been attempted or what exactly is the issue run up against is looked for, you mention a link to the codex but state your skills are not sufficient thus the only advise that can really be…[Read more]

@inget Sound like issues probably better raised or made on the bbPress support forums.

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Mobile Styling in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 8 months ago
However don’t simply expect to suddenly find BP functions like a dream on teeny weeny weeny screens, if you really want that you’ll probably need to put some custom work in or find a plugin that renders a more app like view of the site on mobile devises.

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic bp-legacy in bp-templates in the forum Creating & Extending 10 years, 8 months ago
It’s an understandable assumption but sadly an historic nomenclature that can’t be changed now. In some senses though that set of templates will become a legacy of the older bp-default standalone theme that was provided before ‘Theme Compatibility’ arrived in 1.7 as essentially they were revised copies of the existing bp-default templates, when we…[Read more]

Having resurrected a 4 year old thread for no apparent reason other than perhaps highlighting there’s an issue it would have helped if you had provided a clue as to which , of the many pages in the codex, brought you to this thread so we could deal with it!

Hugo Ashmore replied to the topic Disable admin bar in the forum Creating & Extending 10 years, 8 months ago
There are times when it’s worth remembering that a theme is not necessarily just a bunch of visuals but the directory that contains the crucial files, without which a site will not function and that not all sites hop around changing themes on a whim which would be very poor practise from a business site point of view. I get why people say a theme…[Read more]
