EDIT – didn’t see you there DJPaul, I sure took my time to answer

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

Check out this trac ticket. Know however, that in upcoming BP 1.5, the bp_page_title has been deprecated and WP’s wp_title will be used instead.

== As far as the coding goes, am I supposed to start from scratch or copy over all the files from the plugin / bp-default directory? ==
Depends on what modifications you’d like to implement and how you want to go about it.

Create a child theme of bp-default – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/ – you can import the bp-default default.css in your style.css and make the revisions as well as copy over one or more template files/s from bp-default theme if needed

or use a WP Theme and install the BP Template Pack plugin and go through the process

There’s no available documentation in the BP codex at this time. Big assistance in theme styling is Firefox add-on Firebug https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firebug/

De rien. De nada. Prego. Welcome to BuddyPress

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

@tomcos Double-checked source code of your other regular pages. You need to wrap content with additional `

`which will pull in width so that the sidebar will go to correct position

Therefore at the top of the activity/index.php replace
`

`

with
`

`

and replace bottom of the file
`

`

with
`

`

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

You should be able to get free support for your premium theme at BuddyDress.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

@RPD If you mean this theme, https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/animass, then we’ll use the WP page.php file as guide in the transformation.

Open up the activity/index.php file transferred to your anIMass folder in server. At the top, replace:
`

`

with
`

`

At the bottom of the same file, replace:
`

`

with
`

`

Save and then do the same for the remaining files https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#revise-templates

Looks like a souped up template file. What theme are you using? You can post code of your WP theme’s page.php at pastebin.com. Click submit and post generated URL here.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

bp-default theme has default custom header support. Add this to your child theme’s functions.php file:

`// Disable bp-default theme’s custom header support
define( ‘BP_DTHEME_DISABLE_CUSTOM_HEADER’, true );`

== I did change the code in bb-config.php ==
bb-config.php is automatically generated if you go through the BP Forums set-up. You shouldn’t have to change anything in the code.

== Is it possible to use a different forum service and integrate it into groups? ==
You can install a different forum but you would need to create/code a bridge to WP (if forum you choose is not a WP plugin) as well as bridge to BP groups.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

Usually, it just involves changing the order of the links in header.php or changing order using wp_nav_menu. What theme are you using?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

You can create a file, bp-custom.php, post in necessary code and upload to your wp-content/plugins directory

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

Wrap link
`

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

== If I don’t have bp-config.php I just create it inthe buddypress plugin directory, right? ==
The internal Forum installation process will automatically generate the “bb-config.php” at root of your install when you go through the process.

@karmatosed thanks for updating https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-plugin-compatibility/

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

== Then what is the problem with BuddyPress Enabled site? ==

Nothing. “Site Creation Wizard” plugin hasn’t been updated since WP 3.0.4 and while it may work for you in current WP version, the BP version then was 1.2.6/1.2.7 and a lot has been changed since those versions to current BP 1.2.9.

Have you posted this in WP.org forums or contacted plugin author?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 2 months ago]

Create a BP child theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Copy over header.php from bp-default theme to your new child theme folder

Open up header.php and make changes there, save and upload child theme folder to server and activate.
