@johnconner You might opt to use a plugin for the animation, see first result in https://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress+submenu+open+animation or follow online tutorials which are available in link above.

but BP compatibility didn’t show up

@goldsmithh What do you mean by BP compatibility didn’t show up? What theme are you using?

Yeah I got group forums right now

@thapharm were these group forums set up in previous version of BuddyPress (1.6.5 below) or were your group forums set up per instructions in link provided by Chouf1? If set up in BP 1.6.5 below using the old internal forums, then you have the option to keep it as is and then install bbPress plugin for the…[Read more]

@johnconner Check out https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes pl;us the resources listed near the bottom pf the page.

@arumugamk WP/BP versions? Single WP site or multisite? If multisite, is BP activated in main site or subsite? Theme used? Plugins used?

@tomraff as of BuddyPress 1.7, BuddyPress Pages are rendered automagically in nearly all WordPress themes.

If you have activated the BP Template Pack plugin, deactivate it and delete the plugin.
If you already went through the Appearance > BP Compatibility process, you also need to delete the 6 BP folders transferred to your flare theme in…[Read more]

@petervandoorn did you upgrade from older BP version? What theme are you using?

@julianwagner might be a JS conflict. To double-check, change to Twenty Twelve theme or BP Default theme and check if issue is resolved.

@baskers @msdoble Glad your issues are resolved. Thanks for posting back. As far as I can recall, WordPress works in folders with lowercase names.

Marking this topic as resolved.

@fatjay good job. I see that the layout is as it should be 🙂 Marking this topic as resolved.

As for the sliders, there are different ones available in WP plugin repo https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=slider

@fatjay What exactly is not “working”? I can see BuddyPress pages rendered in your site. Looks like only minor CSS tweaks required.

@kkradel that is a sitewide notice created by the Super/Site Admin. There’s a JS conflict. To delete the message as Super/Site Admin: From your account at the admin toolbar, go to Messages > All Member Notices or from your profile page, go to Messages > Notices

I am using catalyst theme and I have added buddypress to it. I have also used BuddyPress Template Pack.

@lenasterg cool 🙂

@ebraxton30 know that we are all volunteers here living in different time zones.
What have you done so far to troubleshoot the problem? Have you checked whether your theme has been updated for BP 1.7+? Did you change to Twenty Twelve theme or the BP Default theme to see if issue is the same or resolved? Or possibly checking if it’s a plugin…[Read more]

@mamasaywhat this codex instruction for sitewide and group forums? https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

Btw, you mentioned that you’ve been working on the BuddyPress project over and over for around a year, did you by any change install the old BuddyPress group forums then? If so,…[Read more]

@lenasterg Thanks for the update. Have you thought of submitting this to WP Plugins Repo – slightly different name and with props to orig plugin author?

@shonesss WP/BP versions?

but the installation wizard does not show up

There is no longer an Installation Wizard since BP 1.7, so no worries.

I thought I’d plough on ahead anyway so I installed Buddypress Template Pack

As of BP 1.7, BuddyPress is compatible with nearly all WordPress themes, which means you do not need to install/activate the B…[Read more]

@johnconner you should create a child theme of BP Default theme and then add the above CSS to your child theme’s stylesheet.
