In reply to: Buddypress menu resizes automatically
I am not very happy with the fact that bp-default is going to be a past, I like that theme
@4ella I understand where you’re coming from. I have 7 customized bp-default child themes to convert 🙁 It was good while it lasted.
As for a WordPress theme to use, seeing that you are a do-it-yourself themer, I would recommend creating a child theme of the Twenty Twelve Theme or creating your own version of _s theme http://underscores.me/ or rolling out your own WP theme. Twenty Twelve and _s are responsive and mobile-first. The difference between the two is that the Twenty Twelve theme gets updated if necessary each WP release while for your _s theme … I don’t know when they update the theme or where they post the changes so you can update your theme accordingly.
In reply to: Add Friends Slow Loading@somdefabrica Hard to tell without any other info than what was posted above. WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? Where are you hosted? Is your internet/WiFi connection fast?
In reply to: removing sidebar and making full-width@hajhaj Unfortunately, we have no access to the premium theme. Please post in theme author’s site for assistance as the person would most likely know easily how to make the layout change.
@yoyoma1974 Glad to know that the tutorial helped you 🙂 Marking this as resolved.
In reply to: removing sidebar and making full-width@hajhaj there are different ways to implement a new layout for all BuddyPress pages. Check out how it was done for the WP default themes at https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/
In reply to: Plugin Suggestions for Child profiles.@craigola Do you mean you want to set up different account types and that one kind is that for children? If so, have you checked out https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-user-account-type-lite/
In reply to: Buddypress menu resizes automatically@4ella since you’re using the BP Default theme, please be aware of http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/
Going back to the issue at hand, your main navigation links are showing up that way because of the responsive style included in the BP Default theme:
lines 43-50 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.8.1/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/responsive.css#L43
lines 211-221 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.8.1/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/responsive.css#L211In reply to: BuddyPress plugin not installing correctlyPer their installation video and the directions I have gleaned from this Support site,
@petdailypress I don’t know about the theme author’s installation video as we have no access to that. What you just need to do is to install and activate BuddyPress and then configure the components, pages and settings.
I cannot get the Registration page to work because it never set up the page
@pmuktan Nearly all WordPress themes are compatible with BuddyPress. You just need to activate BuddyPress, then configure the BP Components/Pages/Settings. We don’t have access to the premium themes, but if Themeshift has the_title and the_content within the WP loop in its page.php file, then you should be good to go.
In reply to: Integrate twitter in a publish@titoniko sorry, there’s no outright option to publish each comment on the activity stream to twitter at this time. You’d either have to code it yourself, hire a developer to do so or wait for someone to create a plugin that does what you want.
@pmuktan for importing your Mingle Forums to bbPress Forums (which BuddyPress uses), check out how to do so at https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/mingle/
You’d find support for Mingle importer at https://bbpress.org/forums/
Log in using WP username and password. Good luck.@yoyoma1974 what theme specifically are you trying to make compatible with BP? Hard to guess why you can’t make the changes using CSS or some functions in a child theme, etc.
We have some new articles with regards to making sidebar appear/disappear at https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/ like on the Twenty Eleven theme. However, if your specific theme is not using the methods used in articles therein, you might have to follow up with the theme author or hire a developer to help you with the sidebar.
In reply to: Child ThemeShould I try to create a BP child theme? That is, copy default and save with different name within plugin folder?
@gparrott The bad news: “In BuddyPress 1.9, we begin the process of phasing out the BuddyPress Default theme” per http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/ So I strongly recommend for future compatiblity that you do not waste your time creating a child theme for the BP Default theme.
The good news: Since BP 1.7 and the introduction of theme compatibility, BuddyPress has worked seamlessly with nearly all WP themes so check out the many choices available at https://wordpress.org/themes/
In reply to: Help with Buddy & bbpress@barryb64 As @synaptic mentioned above, the labsecrets.com video is outdated. Check out https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/
In reply to: login form in header@drgiz upcoming BP 1.9 now includes a BP log in widget. If you’re just starting to develop a new site, check it out at buddypress.1.9-beta1.zip.
In reply to: No Activation email@soccercoach12345 WP/BP versions? Where are you hosted? Have you checked if activation emails are sent and received if you deactivated BuddyPress?
In reply to: Group mods bug in Beta 1.9@macpresss I agree in the sense that any additional role for the Group Moderator should be configurable by Site/Group Admins.You can submit a ticket to enhance Mod role at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
In reply to: WP installed in non-root directory@bigtreesjoe check out information posted at https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/before-installing/#buddypress-installations
Nothing happen after deleting some group codex in function.php.
@kostasze something’s getting lost in translation. Let’s start with: WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? Why are you removing the group codes from your theme’s functions.php file? Did you do as modemlooper mentioned above?
Rename wp-content/plugins to plugins-off and then try to access your admin.
This will disable all plugins and let you back into site. Once back into site, rename folder back to plugins. If you deleted anything from the BuddyPress folder, go to plugins page in admin and delete and reinstall BuddyPress.
Never remove or delete anything out of the BuddyPress plugin folder.In reply to: registration@mayur-hotkar Create a new blank Page titled “Register” or “Join” or whatever you choose to name your registration page. Create another new blank page titled “Activate” or “Confirm”, etc. Then go to Settings > BuddyPress > Pages and assign the new pages you created to respective Registration element.
In reply to: Registration page link@sanjusmit What have you done so far in setting up BP site? Have you allowed registration in your installation via Settings > General? Have you gone to Settings > BuddyPress > Pages and assigned a Page to Registration?
In reply to: [Resolved] Button Issues@alleycakes great. marking this as resolved.
In reply to: [Resolved] Button Issues@alleycakes add the following to your stylesheet
#buddypress input[type=”submit”],
#buddypress input[type=”submit”]:hover {
background: transparent !important;
border: none !important;
color: #fff !important;
}#buddypress .standard-form div.submit {
padding: 0 !important;
}#buddypress .standard-form div.submit input {
margin-right: 0 !important;
}In reply to: remove CSS underline from links (bp default theme)@mehdi-w first of all, please be advised that the BP Default theme is going to be retired soon
per http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/ and I suggest that you find another theme as BP is now compatible with nearly all WordPress themes right after activation. You might need to tweak some styles in some WP themes but in general, should be good to go.Going back to your question, add that code at the very bottom of the default.css and
default-rtl.css files.
