So you created a child theme of Thematic and then you installed & activated BP Template Pack plugin and have gone through Appearance > BP Compatibility?

Open up child theme’s header.php file, copy all code, paste in pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URI here. Do the same for your theme’s footer.php, sidebar.php, index.php and page.php files. If you do not have such file/s in your child theme, copy the same file from parent theme Thematic.

Hi Stranger. First, congratulations on “integration BP with Minecraft skin system”

Check out BP Skeleton Component plugin as guide – “This plugin is not designed for functional use, it is designed as an educational starting point” https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-skeleton-component/

Download permalink.php file from server wp-content/themes/themeveriteuniverselle/members/single/activity/permalink.php to your computer and make the following change:

Open up permalink.php and at the bottom of the file, add “ immediately before “ so bottom of file would liook something like this:
`

`

Save file.

Upload permalink.php back to server wp-content/themes/themeveriteuniverselle/members/single/activity/

You need to go through Step 3 of the BP Compatibility process to superimpose your theme’s HTML structure onto the BP template files . I helped someone with the graphene theme a while back. Check if this is still applicable with the current Graphene version https://buddypress.org/community/groups/installing-buddypress/forum/topic/where-are-my-sub-menus/

BuddyPress avatars have always been square since BP alpha version if I remember well
I was going to refer you to @sbrajesh but I see you’ve already posted there http://buddydev.com/buddypress/changing-default-avatar-size-croppedused-by-buddypress/

@janismo please clarify what you mean about
– “this theme”
– “old bp-default” and about
– “number of bp-default from the link”

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

You need to install and activate the BP Template Pack plugin and go through Appearance > BP Compatibility to make your WordPress theme compatible with BuddyPress.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@fswd wp-config.php along with bb-config.php (group forums installed) should be at the root of where you installed WP/BP.
e.g. Installed WP/BP
– at http://www.yoursite.com/ then wp- and bb-config.php at http://www.yoursite.com/wp-config.php
– at http://buddypress.yoursite.com then at http://subdomain.yoursite.com/wp-config.php
– at http://www.yoursite.com/buddypress/ then at http://www.yoursite.com/buddypress/wp-config.php

B. Copy sidebar.php and Save As sidebar-buddypress.php

Open up sidebar-buddypress.php and at the top, above all code contained within, add this
`
`

Then at the bottom, below all other code, add this:
`

jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});

`
[ @erica34 – updated code above to add script required]

Save file.

C. Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your theme folder in server wp-content/themes/evolution/ at the same directory where your regular header.php and sidebar.php are in

Final note: Copy over the stylesheet modifications to contain some BP elements to your theme’s stylesheet https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ then adjust as needed.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

To make your theme compatible with BuddyPress, you only need to create two new files, header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php

If you’ve revised any of the BP template files transferred to your evolution theme folder during the BP Compatibility process, please delete the 6 BP folders transferred to your evolution 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 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:
`

`

Save file.

BP/WP versions?
Linux or Windows hosting?
New install or recently upgraded?
How did you set up your install online, via DB import of data from MAMP?

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

As for the theme used in http://www.moretonbay.biz, I’m sorry I cannot provide assistance for artisteer-generated themes. It’s just too convoluted. Maybe someone else here can help you with that theme.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

B. Create a blank file sidebar-buddypress.php and in it add:
`
`

Save file.

Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your tpsunrise folder in server wp-content/themes/tpsunrise/

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

For http://www.campertrailerseniors.net using TP Sunrise theme found at WP Repository https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/tpsunrise

If you’ve touched/revised any of the BP Template files transferred to your tpsunrise folder in server during the BP Compatibility process, please delete the 6 BP Template folders from your tpsunrise theme folder. After that, run Appearance > BP Compatibility process again so you’ll get clean new BP template files transferred to your folder.

You only need to create two new files and upload both to your WP theme’s folder in your server wp-content/themes/tpsunrise/

A. Copy tpsunrise theme’s header.php file and save as header-buddypress.php

Open up header-buddypress.php and at the very bottom of the file, below all code add this:

== Is there any Plugin that a user must pay before they can join on every group in buddypress? ==

Users can join any or every group they would like to in your BP installation without paying anything.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

The plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-registration-options/ has not been updated for BP 1.5. There might be someone who’d reply to your post with a solution, but then again you might get no replies. I suggest contacting plugin developer to request for/pay for updated version.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

No there is no limit. You can only be limited by your server and skillset.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

@erica34 to complete the instruction today please post loop.php and loop-page.php in pastebin.com like you did with the other pages

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

The difference is that the pasted source content of your page.php you posted above in http://pastebin.com/BPGP9w3u where I based the HTML structure didn’t contain “ which was in source content of your index.php post above inhttp://pastebin.com/11HsjUrw

You would need to add that missing line right under get_header in 16 files of BP Templates like so …
`

`

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

@askwpcoach looks like you’re using a custom theme which might need to be updated. Change to bp-default theme and check if issue is resolved.

@mepierce53 could entirely be a different issue. Could be the image plugin or a custom theme, etc.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

Did you enable registration in wp-admin menu Settings > General ?

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

Single WP install, sure. Just add the categories from backend and users can only choose from the available categories.

If you’re talking about categorizing a multisite blog, you could use something like this https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/blog-topics/

Or if you’re looking to create categories in main site which are automatically added to new subsites of multisite install http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/12201/wordpress-multisite-global-categories

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

So is content with right sidebar the layout you want? http://www.powerofone.org/powerofone/integrated-action/

1. Go to dashboard menu Appearance > BP Compatibility and click on Save/Finish.

2. Have to see what method you need to use for Step 3 of the BP compatibility process.
– Open up theme’s header.php, copy content, post on pastebin.com, click submit, and post the generated URI here.
– Do the same for footer.php, index.php, page.php and sidebar.php
