Here’s a very good tutorial about sidebar widgets. It would involve adding code to theme’s sidebar.php and functions.php files http://justintadlock.com/archives/2010/11/08/sidebars-in-wordpress

Rename plugins folder in server to e.g. plugins-x via FTP or cpanel to access wp-admin

If you installed internal bbPress forum via dashboard menu > BuddyPress > Forum Setup, it shouldn’t cause any problem with access to your /wp-admin/. Do you mean you installed the beta bbPress plugin?.

3. Save revised file and make necessary replacements in the rest of the files listed here https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#revise-templates

4. Upload revised files to active WP theme folder following directory structure.

UPDATE 07-11-2012: Check out the latter half of Page 3 of this topic for the instructions for latest version of Instyle theme

@einn1

1. Download BP template files transferred to your active WP theme via the BP compatibility process to your computer hard drive.

2. Open up /activity/index.php with text editor. We’re going to replace the top and bottom sections of the file.

At the top of the file, replace
`

`

with
`

`

then at the bottom of the /activity/index.php, replace
`

`

with
`

Conflict in plugin or theme. Please change to bp-default theme and deactivate plugins except BuddyPress.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Even if plugins/theme are up to date, deactivate all plugins and change theme to bp-default. Clear cache. See if issue is corrected with the change.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Do you mean blog posts? Because blogroll has a special mean in WP sites https://codex.wordpress.org/Glossary#Blogroll

Are you referring to post thumbnails or featured images in posts? Did you check if your theme supports post thumbnails?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Didn’t mean to replicate it The fixes were add/change some styles in the adminbar.css within said child theme:
`body { margin-top: 0px; }
#header { margin-top: 28px; }`

You haven’t said what theme you’re using, so I wouldn’t know if the above will fix your adminbar.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Double-checked this for a friend, BuddyPress does not work where WordPress is given its own directory. I figured the rationale was one cannot create a network with that set up https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network#WordPress_Settings_Requirements. I just moved WP to physical subdomain and it was good to go

Re my bp_loggedin_user_domain code above, add text between ` .. ` like “My Profile”

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

You can add the following within the menu

<li><a href=#"></a></li>

Your revised menu will look like something like this:

<ul id="nav">
<li> ... </li>
<li> ... </li>

<li></li>

<li> .... </li>
</ul>

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

What theme are you using? Clear cache. Use bp-default theme to test. If it’s still not working even if you’ve already made “pretty permalinks”, what’s in your .htaccess file?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Deactivate all plugins and change to bp-default theme.

Also, it would be better if you posted code at http://pastebin.com/ , click submit and post the generated URL here.

same question, brigon.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

same post by OP in wp.org forums

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

What do you currently have at the root of your domain?

It would be pretty much the same as moving WordPress from subfolder to domain root or elsewhere.
Always backup database and server files to your computer hard drive before attempting the change, just in case.

@astromono I finally found an instance of BP admin bar over the site title and network admin in backend just minutes ago:-) It was in the old bp-child theme I was revising which had adminbar.css from way back when.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

You can add “Blog” page in BP-compatible themes much like how you can do this in a regular WP site – http://www.nathanrice.net/blog/creating-a-blog-page-with-paging/

If that doesn’t work for you, contact BuddyBoss theme authors as they would know if there were any blocks to creating the “Blog” page per instructions above.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

There could be a number of reasons for the errant behavior.

– WP/BP versions?
– BP Template Pack veriion?
– Have you deactivated all plugins except BuddyPress and changed to bp-default theme? Clear cache. Does same bad behavior return or is it fixed?
– When you say, “I could not edit my user info” do you mean your profile page or one of your user’s info?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

First, do not make revisions in bp-default theme. Revisions will be overwritten when BP is upgraded.

Instead,
– create a child theme of bp-default theme, e.g. mybpproject,
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/
– create a functions.php file and put it in your child theme folder. Define new widget/s here (name, ID, etc)
– copy over the template file from bp-default theme to your child theme folder (following directory structure) then add the call to dynamic_sidebar in that template.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

== edited the theme a little (ie changed “Groups” to “Classes” etc). ==

Where did you make those edits? Check:
– in wp-config.php; then open up wp-config.php and delete the line which changes Groups to Classes
– in language file; go to your theme’s /language/ folder backup the poedit to computer hard drive then delete from server
– or in file/s you copied over to the bp-default child theme, then backup child theme in your computer hard drive and delete child theme from server
–
