@jblevins1991 Please check through the BP codex documentation we provide a few guides there that set out how BP templating is structured and how to overload the files to a theme or child theme, this is your first port of call for information thereafter if you still have questions not covered in our guides do ask back here.

If you are taking this topic to a private channel, then this topic will be closed. Please remember that public forums are intended for open topics where the help may benefit others, also the referenced issue is a third party plugin, not BuddyPress the correct avenue of help would be the plugins WP support forum normally.

@ldesherl I think it might help if you could leave that link above switched to a WP default theme and with all plugins deactivated, just while you’re seeking help for this issue, as things stand I see no sight of BuddyPress or bbPress running, and the theme is a custom one with a lot of plugins running.

…but I just feel like the codex should not be so freaking skimpy and weak.

Then please help to make it better! As mentioned BP is a voluntary project representing many many hours of freely given time by the core dev team and various contributors. The codex is something that takes a massive amount of time to organize and update,…[Read more]

You can do anything more or less with a little styling.
Just remove the left margin on .activity-comments, but observe how that affects them in all screens and taget specifically, the body element generally carries useful classes to use.

@joost-abrahams >2014 only exist on group pages, members pages no issues

Thanks for the testing, I’ll be adding a patch for BP styles later.

As r-a-y says we’ll get a patch together for 2.4.1

This is an announcement post please report any issues in the forums.

@djpaul yes aware of that but we only changed things for new users from a point in time forwards, existing users retained their editing role e.g ‘bobbingwide’ who has had existing account fora few years.

@bobbingwide Existing user accounts should have edit capability, it was only newer accounts where we needed to manage the spam activity, so if you could try editing a page and let us know if you are having issues.

@bobbingwide
One thing we have to do on the forum is update our user display names to something new which helps kick the profile topic tracking into life.

Having a look to see what your user capability status is…
