@aslandoma There were some changes to the BP widget styles to improve accessibility for BP 2.9. Based on the images you posted, it looks like you just need to override parent theme BP styles and change some padding and floats.

Visited your site and didn’t find any BP widgets on the pages I clicked on, so do provide a URL with the BP widgets and/or activate the BP widgets so we may help you resolve the issue.

[@mercime Participant 9 years ago]

@vanessenstudio Given the screenshot, I can only guess that your theme’s stylesheet is missing lines 601 through 614 which are necessary to move the notice to the top of the page.

@wasanajones Thank you for the report 🙂 We will be removing that information from our readme.txt https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7328

Just to note that the “add friend and cancel friendship” tooltips, among other tooltips have been removed in BP 2.7 trunk (see #7090).

[@mercime Participant 9 years, 10 months ago]

Hi @maryt66 When are you planning to launch the site? I am happy to say that we’re on our way to WCAG 2.0 compliance 🙂 Hopefully when BP 2.7 rolls out in mid-October this year, we’ve completed the fixes on all our front-end (user-facing) templates and at least 75% of our back-end admin screens.

[@mercime Participant 9 years, 11 months ago]

@destac There are different ways to implement the new feature. For the screenshot, I did it in 4 simple steps.

Note that you might need to adjust how the widgets are registered, named, or styled based on your theme.

1. Registered three new widget areas in the child/theme’s functions.php file.

<?php // Only add this line if you are adding this to an empty functions.php file
/**
 * Register three widget areas for Members front page.
 *
 * @since My Child Theme 2.6.0
 */
function my_child_theme_widgets_init() {
	register_sidebar( array(
		'name'          => __( 'bp-members-1st', 'my-child-theme' ),
		'id'            => 'bp-members-1st',
		'description'   => __( 'Appears on each member\'s front page.', 'my-child-theme' ),
		'before_widget' => '<aside id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
		'after_widget'  => '</aside>',
		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
	) );

	register_sidebar( array(
		'name'          => __( 'bp-members-2nd', 'my-child-theme' ),
		'id'            => 'bp-members-2nd',
		'description'   => __( 'Appears on each member\'s front page.', 'my-child-theme' ),
		'before_widget' => '<aside id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
		'after_widget'  => '</aside>',
		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
	) );

	register_sidebar( array(
		'name'          => __( 'bp-members-3rd', 'my-child-theme' ),
		'id'            => 'bp-members-3rd',
		'description'   => __( 'Appears on each member\'s front page.', 'my-child-theme' ),
		'before_widget' => '<aside id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
		'after_widget'  => '</aside>',
		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
	) );
}
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'my_child_theme_widgets_init' );

Adjust items registered in child theme based on how your theme is setting up the widget areas.

2. Created a new file front.php which should be located as follows: wp-content/my-child-theme-folder/buddypress/members/single/front.php
(Create the buddypress, members, and single directories/folders if you do not have those in your theme yet.)

Added the following in the front.php file:

<?php
/**
 * BuddyPress - Members Front Page
 *
 * @since My Child Theme 2.6.0
 */
?>

<div class="bp-member-front-wrap">

	<div class="bp-member-front-1">
		<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'bp-members-1st' ); ?>
	</div>

	<div class="bp-member-front-2">
		<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'bp-members-2nd' ); ?>
	</div>

	<div class="bp-member-front-3">
		<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'bp-members-3rd' ); ?>
	</div>

</div>

3. Added some styles:

.bp-member-front-wrap {
	clear: both;
	margin-bottom: 2em;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 46em) {
	.bp-member-front-wrap {
		clear: both;
		margin-bottom: 1em;
	}
	.bp-member-front-1,
	.bp-member-front-2 {
		float: left;
		margin-right: 1.5%;
		width: 32%;
	}
	.bp-member-front-3 {
		float: left;
		width: 32%;
	}
}

4. Went to Appearance > Widgets and add widgets to the Member Front Page Widget Areas.

As mentioned above, there are other ways to implement this new feature. Happy customizing!

[@mercime Participant 10 years ago]

@wpbp999 Sorry, we do not have access to the premium theme. The best place to ask is at the theme developer’s forum. 🙂

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 1 month ago]

@noahboddy BuddyPress is compatible with nearly all WordPress themes. Checked out the source code of your theme’s page.php. It’s clean and should work with BP. So in all probability, the conflict could with another plugin. Good luck.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 1 month ago]

@jazzbuzz The page is not available at this time. Check out the list of plugins tagged ‘buddypress’ at WordPress.org. Disclaimer: There are some plugins which use the ‘buddypress’ tag but could just only be compatible (no conflict) with BP or just use the tag for “SEO”.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 1 month ago]

Hi @noahboddy Looks like you have already deactivated BuddyPress from your site. If you still want to install BuddyPress on your site and want to troubleshoot the issue, I would recommend that you disable all plugins other than BuddyPress and bbPress. When you get BP working, then activate other plugins one by one to check which was the culprit.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

@mas6ce That upper sidebar content above the Search form:

HIDE/SHOW FORM
name 
location 
mentor or mentee
导师／mentor
学员／mentee

is most probably integrated with the theme you have activated now. Since that is a commercial theme, we ask that you please go to their official support channel, so you can get support from the people who know it best.

Forum volunteers are also not given access to commercial products, so they would not know why it is not working properly. Other community members who may have faced your issue might be able to help you but your best bet is your product’s developer. Keep in mind we encourage you to use the official support venues, as it allows the developers to be aware of issues with their code and gives back to the community in a more robust way.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

Issue is whenever user post a comment

@mjc82in Just so we’re clear, when you say “post a comment”, do you mean post a comment in the comment form of a blog post? If so, that could be an issue with a theme which needs to be updated to be compatible with the latest WP and BP versions.

What theme are you using? Have you tried changing to the Twenty Fifteen theme and check if issue is resolved?

I can give access to my site to one of the moderators or developer if it helps.

We will ask for a throw-away (not admin) account should the need arise. But at this stage, it’s looking to be a theme issue, not a BuddyPress bug. So your problem is not resolved by changing the theme, do provide answers to all the questions in the link I gave you so we can see the overall structure of your installation.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 4 months ago]

Hi @mjc82in Please provide more information about your installation so that we can help you find out how to resolve your issue. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

So I have to create the Register and Activate pages from scratch?

@abbadoodle It means you go to Pages > Add New and name a page “Register”, leave everything else blank, and click “Publish”. Do the same for a page named “Activate”. Then you go to Settings > BuddyPress and to the “Pages” tab, then associate the new pages you created with the Activate and Register select boxes and Save. That’s it.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

@abbadoodle Welcome to BuddyPress! https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

>> I need suggestions for how best to proceed as well on any thoughts about this feature becoming part of core.
Thank you. There’s a ticket for that https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4017 and yes, I am also interested about this getting in core 🙂 You can cc yourself in that ticket to get updated.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

Cool! Thank you @danbp 🙂

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

@danbp thumbs up! 🙂

I guess I’m not going to pursue getting a forum on my site.

@ldesherl You do not need to install BuddyPress in order to get a forum. You only need to install bbPress forums plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/ which works perfectly without BuddyPress.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

@mrunal2989 Then there’s something awry with your configuration or with the theme’s Full Width template. When I looked at the source code of the registration page, there’s a (left-column) div and a sidebar (aside) … so that’s not a full-width layout at all. I suggest you contact the premium theme author why the Full Width page template is showing up with sidebar and how to fix it as we have no access to the theme.

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

@mrunal2989 my bad, it should be

body.register #buddypress {
width: 90%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}

[@mercime Participant 10 years, 5 months ago]

@mrunal2989 the easiest way to center the registration page to select the full-width page template (instead of the Default Template) of your theme from the “Register” page Page Attribute box and then use CSS on the #buddypress wrapper to center the registration page. e.g. add

#buddypress {
     width: 90%; 
     margin-left: auto; 
     margin-right: auto; 
} 

to your theme’s stylesheet.
