BuddyPress.org

I am really confused about how a child theme overrides a standard theme. So does the child theme just have to be named Twenty Sixteen Child and it will override Twenty Sixteen?

If I change code like the h3 tags or something will the changes show up on the members directory page? I am trying to modify the bp-default because im not very familiar with child themes. I figure if I modify the parent theme it would show up on the main theme right?

Worked like a charm!

Is the member directory /members/index.php and the loop for the directory is /members/members-loop.php? right?

Okay, I did those changes (shown below). I still see no additional role added to the WordPress extended profile. I should be able to see it there. Correct?

<?php

add_action('bp_init',…[Read more]

Got it to work. Thank you for your help Hugo.

Do you have a fully custom BuddyPress theme that is not a child theme? I’d really like to look at the code and figure it out under the hood.

Just gonna bump this up.

I copied the files that are located in bp-legacy/buddypress/groups to MyTheme/buddypress/groups. Hmmmm, I will have to look into that Hugo. So that would be why you never see get_header or get_footer, etc. in any buddypress templates. That makes a hell of a lot more sense!

I really should not have posted before testing. However I copied pasted the BuddyPress Template for index.php to my theme and It comes up as a blank page. Any ideas why this would happen?

Okay. Revisiting that page kind of game me some direction. I think I just stumbled into a state of pure confusion. I’ll post back if I have any questions.

Right, when it says directory it means that its where all of the groups are shown in a list right?

I am trying to find which pages are what right now so I can mirror the directory structure and move on to coding them out and testing things on them.

Can you give me some more information on which ones are which? I really couldn’t find which one…[Read more]

Okay because I was looking at bp-core-template-loader. I saw the many functions such as bp_register_template_stack and bp_get_template_stack. From the description of the function in the comments I infer these functions allow me to say “instead of bp-legacy use these folders instead”. Is there a way to get BuddyPress to use the files at…[Read more]

I would really like this. As of now I have to create my own solution for this. Im not to the step where I have started the code for my custom group types, but if it would help the community in any way I will post a link to the code for it when I do get that far.

Anybody know how BuddyPress looks for and puts together the group profile page?

Right now I am trying out Dreamweaver for production. However for a bit more versatility I am thinking about going back to Sublime Text. If not mainly for awesome plugins.

I did look at that function as well.
