@toccia I cannot replicate this in my test installation. Are you using any membership or invitation plugin? Is WP/BP installed in domain root or in subdirectory/subdomain? Is this single/multisite installation?
B. COPY your theme’s sidebar.php file and Save As > sidebar-buddypress.php
Open up sidebar-buddypress.php file and at the very TOP of the file above other code, add this:
``
Save file.
C. Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your theme folder in server wp-content/themes/dailypost/ in the same directory where your regular header.php and sidebar.php files are
D. Final note: Copy the style modifications for some BP elements https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ and paste those at the bottom of your theme’s stylesheet, then adjust to taste.
Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you will be only need to create two new files, header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to make the BP templates compatible with your theme.
If you’ve revised any of the BP template files transferred to your dailypost theme folder in server during the BP Compatibility process, please delete the 6 BP folders transferred to your dailypost theme folder in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /members, /groups, /register – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility again to make sure that you have clean template files.
A. COPY your theme’s header.php and Save As > header-buddypress.php
Open up header-buddypress.php and at the BOTTOM of the file, below other code contained within, add this:
`<article id="post-” >`@cleaus Thank you.
Now while I set up the code necessary for BP compatibility. I suggest that you a) make a backup of your dailypost theme folder in server, b) delete the theme in dashboard Appearance > Themes, c) then re-install DailyPost theme and activate it. Your theme shouldn’t be missing lines of code per your pastebin.com, otherwise whatever code I post here might not work out at all. Although we saw that only in header.php at this time, other files might just be corrupted as well and it’s not going to a fun ride.

You would have to hire a developer to write the script to import phpFox into WP/BP.
In reply to: [Resolved] Changing buddypress style ?>> I use my own theme for buddypress .using buddypress theme plugin
@mahdiar you mean you use a WP theme and installed the BP template pack plugin or something else? As for changing the style, it’s done in your active theme’s style.css file unless otherwise instructed.

In reply to: Restrict Group Creation>> Therefore their is no way to restrict users from creating limited number of groups?
There is. Try http://buddydev.com/plugins/limit-groups-per-user/ last updated April 2012
@cleaus I made no mention of a child theme anywhere. Let’s re-start this conversation with: where did you download your theme, WP theme repository (free version) or at theme author site (PRO version)?
@bibliata I believe there’s a misunderstanding here. You should not be changing anything within the bp-default theme in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/
If you want to revise the bp-default theme, you should create a child theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/
BP Columns is already a child theme of bp-default theme. If you want to make any style changes in this child theme, the simplest thing to do there is add your new styles at the bottom of custom.css file and back it up since it will be overwritten when it’s upgraded. Or, you can create a new css file e.g. mystyles.css in BP Columns theme folder to add your new styles to, then open up style.css file and add
`@ import url( mystyles.css );`
under `@ import url( custom.css );`
(remove the space between @ and import when you do this)If you’re using Firefox, install the Firebug add-on to help you ID what elements need to be changed.
And, as I’ve mentioned in the other post, you can use a WP theme which approximates the layout you need and install the BP Template Pack plugin. For reference, we have a list of “bp-template-packed” WP themes, free and premium @ https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
@charlietech do provide a test-user/throw-away username and password to your site so we could check out what you’ve posted above
In reply to: [Resolved] Allignment – BlackLight theme@tomelk31 No problem. You’re lucky you only had to add styles instead of revising 16 template files for Step 3
Marking this as resolved.In reply to: NING importerThere was a free plugin but it has not been updated for some time https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/import-from-ning/ There have been many changes to BP since the plugin was released though.
There’s a premium plugin http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/ning-to-buddypress-user-importer/
which states it’s compatible with latest version. There’s a link to contact them on same page for any pre-sales questions.In reply to: phpfox v3 – buddypressNone that I know of. You need to import one?
Cool. Marking this as resolved.
In reply to: [Resolved] Allignment – BlackLight themeI would say that if you are HTML- and CSS-challenged, you could change to WP theme which approximates the look you want to have for your site and install the BP template pack plugin.
If you’re just going to run a default BP installation, i.e., just use default features, then you’re set until the time where you need a multi-DB solution for the growing number of users/blogs in your install. But if you want to customize presentation and functionality within the site, then you’d either have to learn PHP,HTML,CSS,JS,WP,BP or hire a developer to help you out.
Please contact your theme author re issues with Salutation theme compatibility with current BP version.
In reply to: [Resolved] Allignment – BlackLight theme@bibliata You can make a WP theme compatible with BP by installing the BP Template Pack plugin and going through BP compatibility process which we are addressing in this thread.
@cleaus I just found out that DailyPost is hosted in WP Theme Repo and the content-page.php code has the “missing” lines, see https://themes.svn.wordpress.org/dailypost/1.0.5/content-page.php
I see that the theme has a PRO version as well.So are you using the pro version or the free one from WP theme repo? If you’re using the one from the repo, you should download another copy of the theme and re-upload it manually via FTP to make sure all files are there and I will work from the code in repository. If it’s the pro version, it’s weird that it’s missing some lines which are available in the free version.
In reply to: [Resolved] Allignment – BlackLight theme@tomelk31 Clear cache. The Members Directory page layout is just fine in desktop and iPad. What browser/device are you viewing it in?
You’re welcome. Marking this as resolved
@cleaus missing codes -> lines 16-21 and 23-28 in your latest pastebin.com link for content-page.php
In reply to: [Resolved] Allignment – BlackLight theme@tomelk31 ok, I see that you’ve added the styles now and I see that the additions have fixed the layout for all BP pages.
@burntheedges https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ Per codex article above If you only want sitewide forums, then you should “Disable (uncheck) Discussion Forums in the Settings > BuddyPress > Components panel” etc
In reply to: Badge plugin not working@tgnwsauctions not your fault except that you shouldn’t install a BP plugin which has not been updated for over two years.
