from your stylesheet. You’ll then find that the style you pasted below that will work then.

On issue#1 – need to clear cache. Better yet, open site with another browser. Added style works.

On issue #2, you might also want to try this plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-profile-menu/installation/ where you’d have to add
`

`
just below your wp_nav_menu in your theme’s header.php

Caveat: you would need to manually change the div classes/ID of the menu UL/LI in the plugin’s bp-profile-menu.php file

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

Thank you for your feedback. The issue will be addressed.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@jamesmcbennett I looked at your members and forums directory and looks like something went awry with your HTML structure since last time you posted at the forums.

With regards to your question, add the following to your theme’s stylesheet:
`div#subnav.item-list-tabs {
margin: -15px 0 15px !important;
}`

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

WP/BP versions? Change to bp-default theme and see if issue is corrected. If so, you have to contact your buddyboss theme author for assistance.

@elizabethhannan You have a different issue so the fix in trac ticket I linked to won’t work for you.

You need to increase the available memory via https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/blank-pages/ or contact your hosting tech support.

Deactivate BuddyPress by renaming the buddypress folder in server from wp-content/plugins/buddypress to something like buddypress-xx

This is a known issue for installations where BuddyPress is not installed properly https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3724

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

Those are subjects you should be asking the plugin developer directly first. If they won’t/can’t do what you need, hire a developer to do so.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

== Anybody in buddy boss support forum answered me about that. ==

Not sure what you mean. But since BuddyBoss is a premium theme, you should be able to get free support from the theme developers at http://www.buddyboss.com/forum/

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

Have you read https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ ?

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@thesurfinstitute you’re welcome. You’re lucky that the HTML structure of the Sliding Doors theme made it compatible with the 2nd method for BP compatibility
Marking this as resolved.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

There is only one instance of BuddyPress in one WP multisite installation.

You’d need two plugins to have have separate instances of BuddyPress in a multisite install, one plugin to create multiple WP networks and another plugin to enable distinct and separate BuddyPress instance in each network http://wpmututorials.com/news/new-features/multiple-buddypress-social-networks/

Dashboard menu BuddyPress > Profile Fields.
Note that any fields in the “Base” group will appear on the signup page == registration page. So create another xprofile group for the fields which could be answered at a later date.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

== several things missing when I post a blog entry (“What’s new?”) in BP Groups … The posts don’t show up in “All Posts” on the admin page (I thought I could apply categories there). It almost seems as if they’re not “posts” as far as WP is concerned ==

You’re right. Those are not posts but group activity updates. If you want posts by the group, you could try either:
For WP multisite with BP install – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-groupblog/
For single WP or WP multisite with BP install – http://buddydev.com/buddypress/blog-categories-for-groups-plugin/

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

You’re welcome. Glad it worked out for you.

Marking this thread as resolved.

It’s in the index.php file

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@thesurfinstitute Following is the simplest way to make your theme compatible:

If you’ve changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility. (make sure Sliding Door Child theme is activated before you run this)

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 all other code, add this:
`

`

Save file.

B. Create a BLANK sidebar-buddypress.php and add this line only

`

`

Save file.

C. Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to wp-content/themes/sliding-door-child/

D. Style modifications for BP templates – you might want to use some or all of styles listed in this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

== There’s really nobody out there that can assist me with this!? ==

@thesurfinstitute We’re all volunteers here living in different time zones and it just happened that your post got overlooked. A polite bump is acceptable.

You need to fix the alignment of the BP template files with that of your WP theme https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/sliding-door

Let me take a look and I’ll get back to you on solution.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

BuddyPress Followers plugin works only with BuddyPress plugin activated.

I recommend that you post at WordPress forums for assistance in seeking for plugin/s that would meet your needs. Before posting there, you might consider searching for such plugins first like https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=follow

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

Widget title alignment is corrected and updated in my previous post. Found out the conflicting style is inline and so we need to add the !important in stylesheet.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

== Is there a way to make the change from “Groups” to “Leagues” happen everywhere? ==

Yes. Use language translation file as in https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

1. You should be using BuddyPress 1.5.4 with WP 3.3.1
2. You need to have “pretty permalinks” ==> dashboard menu Settings > Permalinks – and set permalinks to other than default.
