You’re welcome. Now it’s resolved, change/delete username and password you posted earlier, anyone can access your admin and wreak havoc in your main site with BP.

I’ve already changed it in your post above.

Looks like it’s fixed. When I visited earlier, I could see the front page out of whack without being redirected to wp-login.php. Now, the redirect is on and the site looks well even in Firefox on my end. I can also see the bp adminbar on screen.

@rcichetti I would recommend that you download another copy of the bp-columns theme and re-upload to your server. The theme’s not rendered correctly in your site right now – something got lost in download or upload of the theme and that’s most probably what’s causing the lack of adminbar in your site.

@FiestyLatina you’re welcome. Note that you will have to implement your theme’s HTML structure to some BP plugins, not all. You’ll know when you have to make the changes when you see the misalignment of your sidebar and content area on the page/s where the plugin is being implemented.

@StevieG adding footer.php from bp-default to your child theme shouldn’t mess with your install. So going back to “If I try to access the files in my child theme I get the error message ‘Sorry, that file cannot be edited’.” is this in relation to editing the child theme files via Network Admin > Appearance > […]

You can have your own functions.php file in a child theme. Just make sure that the new function you’ll be adding is not the same as the ones already in functions.php of bp-default parent theme.

And the reason why the styles I gave you are not showing up is because in the block before that, there is no closing bracket after the style declarations of div.post div.post-content, div.comment-content whew. So change this div.post div.post-content, div.comment-content { margin-left: 0px; to div.post div.post-content, div.comment-content {…[Read more]

At the end of the BP template pack process, per instruction on screen, you need to add (hardcode) new navigation tabs or links to your theme’s header.php to link to BuddyPress components directory pages. Add link to the components you enabled in BuddyPress settings. The default set of links are: * Activity: http://yoursite.com/activity/ * Members: […]

Open up custom.css file, then add this at the bottom :
#header {
height: 160px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left;
}

ul#nav {
position: absolute;
left: 15px;
bottom: 0;
max-width: 1000px;
font-size: 14px;
height: 25px;
overflow: hidden;
}

Adjust to taste. Save and upload.

Ok, BPcolumns then.

1. Save a file copy of your default.css file in the themefoldername/_inc/css folder to a safe place.

2. Open up default.css, find #header and change height: 100px; to height: 125px;

3. In same file, find ul#nav and
change right: 15px; to left: 15px;
change max-width: 65%; to width: 100%
