BuddyPress.org

Also check out the BP showcase:

ok so yours worked grouping the 2 together but mine wouldn’t work having them seperate, why is that?

It depends on where you placed the CSS snippets. I hope you created a child theme to make your changes. Creating a child theme allows you to make changes to the default BP theme easily.

Ahh okay, try this plugin by Rich:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/

This extends the functionality of the group forums. One of the features is a group forum index.

Also make sure you have enabled the discussion forum for each group.

I think Famous means the default theme isn’t default blog-friendly.

I’ve read a thread by Famous asking for this before:

@kippnkatie – I would strongly recommend learning some elementary CSS. Using the Firebug plugin with Firefox also helps immensely.

Replace your following snippet above with:
#members-dir-list .item-list li, #groups-dir-list .item-list li {clear:both;margin:0 0 2em 0;padding:10px 0;}

This should fix both your members and groups directory.

Ok, i have found a theme i want, Deerawan – Cloudy 1.4.2, but how would i make it so it was buddypress compatible? This theme appears to be a WordPress theme. Use the BuddyPress Template Pack plugin in conjuction with your WP theme: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/ And how do i display my groups in the forums i have on […]

@bofw – I don’t experience this problem with the default BP theme. — Anyway, some general updates about the plugin. Sorry for the lack of progress! (blame it on me moderating the forums!) Next version will definitely include: -activity stream resizing + activity stream permalink resizing -changes to caching logic for performance reasons -support…[Read more]

@jivany – Read what Boone did for the CUNY commons:

Upgrading from BuddyPress 1.0 to 1.1

Pay special attention to the beginning and end of the post.

Put the wp-blog-header.php line at the top of your script.

Also try posting on the WordPress forums, as this isn’t really a BP issue.

eg. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/288455

Run a Loop Outside of WordPress

You’ve declared “display” as screen_function in your org_info_add_subnav() function.

So now, you need to create a “display()” function with some code to display your admin page.
In the skeleton component, the function you would want to look at is “bp_example_screen_one()” for hints.

Off-topic: Shouldn’t /community/ exist in the /public_html/ folder?
Anyway… did you try using a simple WP function after integrating the wp-blog-header.php file like a query_posts loop?

You can’t create sub-forums for a group natively in BP. It’s potentially possible to create a plugin to create sub-forums for each group, but such a plugin doesn’t exist right…[Read more]

Again, this isn’t very clear. Please outline your steps. Let’s say your external bbPress install is located under /bbpress/. Your custom template would reside in /bbpress/my-templates/YOURNEWTHEME/. In this case, you’d want to put “bbbp-default” under /bbpress/my-templates/. Then you go to /bbpress/bb-admin/ and activate the bbPress theme. It’d…[Read more]

2) global $bp; echo $bp->loggedin_user->id; OR is_user_logged_in()

3) Use my preferred method, dive into the code yourself! bp_has_members is available in /bp-core/bp-core-templatetags.php

@quirhijn – Read this guide on how to create a child theme:
https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Using a child theme allows you to make changes to the default theme without fear of losing them when you upgrade BuddyPress.
You don’t need programming knowledge in order to set one up either! 😉
