You mean the BP adminbar Here’s how to have adminbar only in site where BP is installed.

P.S. don’t forget to add the opening `<?php` at the top of the code

Both issues related to the Arras theme integration with BuddyPress albeit via different routes. Bigjimmysisco, patience. Not everybody is using Brownbuddy.

@joshua_d Some other options include
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-profile-privacy/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-profiles-manager/
and/or making the site private for members only via script or a plugins like
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/s2member/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hs-membership/

I know that there are other devs who are interested in developing the plugin. Just don’t know when it will happen and whether or not it’ll be free or premium.

You can add list of categories to the sidebar via default Category widget in dashboard menu Appearance > Widgets, then style it accordingly

@sparkinweb It would be great if you shared how you resolved your problem so others can learn from it.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

— This exact same problem has been asked before of this theme on this forum in fact mercime you responded on it. —

Thanks, I know I’ve answered a lot of questions about it @hnla

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

Check the footer.php of your theme and make sure that there’s the “ just before “

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

Simply put, different loops and template tags for index, category, single pages etc. in WP. Then you have different loops and additional template tags for various components – activity, members, groups etc – in BP.

— If the only way to solve this is to add a free member for troubleshooting, than I will, but I would like not too. —

You are free to do whatever you want just as volunteers are free to answer whatever question comes up in these forums – if they so choose. Know that the volunteers here are not psychic. You haven’t even mentioned what custom theme you’re using to warn others to expect abysmal theme support if they use that custom theme.

Most BuddyPress plugins are available at WordPress plugin repository

@gunju2221 smile, be cool
On the other side of the aisle, I’ve helped out others who asked BP questions in WP.org forums or referred them to our forums here

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

— Due to the privacy issues, and to be a member on my site, you need to pay a fee, —

99.9% of those who help out in this forum are volunteers. You cannot expect volunteers who are trying to help you to pay a membership fee to troubleshoot your custom theme which is already going beyond getting BuddyPress working in your site.

— is it absolutely necessary to be on the front end? —

It would make it much easier and faster to identify the problem.

== There isn’t a max-width causing the problem there. ==

Well, that was really a stab in the dark. Again, site URL? Can you yourself give a solution to a CSS problem if only an image is given to you?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

@berseck, glad you solved this on your own. “The problem was on the SQL statement I added invisible users and had one comma extra at the end of this info.” — Wouldn’t have thought of that just reading through your post

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

Here’s an walkthrough
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

There might just be max-width applied in the styling of your button. URL of webpage?

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

using long-form as you started above, it would be like this:
`body {
background-color: transparent;
background-image:url(‘smiley.gif’);
background-attachment: fixed;
background-position:center top;
}`

or you could use the shortform
`body { background: transparent url(body3lite.jpg) fixed center top; }`

@ddegagne answered in your other post about same issue
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/why-did-this-happen/

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

It could be that the Buddymatic theme you have in your install has not been updated to current BP 1.2.7 version.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

Pretty permalinks must be set up for BP to work. Run Settings > Permalinks and set it to other than default.

[@mercime Participant 15 years, 8 months ago]

For forums – you have to set it up first = dashboard menu > BuddyPress > Forums Setup
For groups – enable it first = dashboard menu > BuddyPress > Component Setup

@ddjjmm if you want your subsites/blogs to be directed to
blog1.domain.de
blog2.domain.de
blog3.domain.de
you must install WordPress at root, i.e. http://www.domain.de, and Create a Network with subdomain structure.

Looks like he’s using the Custom Community BP Theme by @svenl77 per problem in “/home1/laozenco/public_html/wp-content/themes/custom-community/_inc/ajax.php “

Edit- didn’t type fast enough. But if you’re using Custom Community theme, you don’t need to install BP template pack. Use BP Template Pack only when you choose a WP Theme. Deactivate BP Template Pack if you’re going to use a BuddyPress-compatible theme already.

=== The IMages just don’t even load on the crop page, which is not really a huge problem, but it is sort of ugly and out of place. ===

@Bigjimmysisco I understand that your avatars uploads are working. Good for you because most of the problems I saw in these forums were the avatar uploads and not that of header or background image upload/rendering.

Since it’s the loading of the background image and a header image that is failing for you, we have to troubleshoot what’s causing the block to a very basic function.. So are you using the bp-default theme or child theme of the bp-default theme OR a custom theme? If it’s the first two, then reupload manually (via FTP/cPanel) buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default theme to your server. If it’s a custom theme, contact theme author of theme glitches for BP 1.2.7/WP 3.0.4.

Another aspect to consider is that default maximum file size uploads are 2MB or less. Check image file size. Check also image file types allowed – jpg, gif, png.
