Everything should be available for customization in your theme’s folder:
/wp-content/themes/YOUR_THEME/

Like Roger stated, it depends on what you want to edit.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Check out this codex article:
https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/install-buddypress-on-a-secondary-blog/

Make sure your WP network is setup as a subdomain.

Blogs would be created at:
xxx.themainblog.com

Interacting should be seamless. BP Admin bar will show up on all sites by default.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

member-header.php is located in /bp-default/members/single/.

If you’re making modifications to the bp-default theme, build a child theme so your changes will not be wiped out:

It’s because FB and Buzz uses javascript to render the button.
And because you’re trying to load javascript on an AJAX call, this won’t work.

I wouldn’t call myself a jQuery ninja, so I can’t really help you out here I’m afraid.
Not sure if it’s possible.

*Edit – Maybe try jQuery.getScript?

Read this: http://wpmu.org/how-to-add-a-custom-default-avatar-for-buddypress-members-and-groups/

iamnorthwind –
If you’re using another plugin to upload avatars, you’ll need to override the way BuddyPress fetches avatars.

Specifically, you’ll need to override the “bp_core_fetch_avatar” filter located in /buddypress/bp-core-avatars.php file.

Need a primer on filters? Read this:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API#Filters

@newrambler – for /index.php, it’s on line 26:
https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/tags/1.2.5.2/bp-themes/bp-default/index.php

@pisanojm – maybe a filter on the_time() would suffice, some might like the existing relative time. Definitely create an enhancement ticket!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Yes, a ticket does need to be created for this!

To have the topic content as meta description for forum threads, add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

@gwu123 – I already posted a solution for this a few posts before:
https://trac.buddypress.org/attachment/ticket/2578/2578.001.patch

Just a FYI, it requires hacking the core.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Read this to add the topic title to the page title:

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

You’d have to create a plugin that adds group meta information.

If you’re familiar with a little PHP, check out this post for a brief primer:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/adding-more-fields-to-groups/#post-64306

Also check out the Group Extension API:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/group-extension-api/

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

It’s possible, but would probably require hacking the core.
I don’t have time to look into this, but I would also suggest taking a closer look at /bp-groups/bp-groups-templatetags.php as well.

Look for private and group statuses in that file.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

So you want a user blog theme that resembles your Buddypress theme?

Read this:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/bp-blog-theme-as-default/

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Locking thread.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

To detect if you’re on a WP page use:
if ( bp_is_blog_page() )

Vice versa, to detect if you’re on a BuddyPress page, use:
if ( !bp_is_blog_page() )

There are some things like the activity front page that you’ll need to add to your conditional, but that’s to get you started.

All conditionals can be found in /buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-templatetags.php and on this codex page (might need updating):
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/conditional-template-tags/

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

@pisanojm – I don’t have control with how plugin groups are created.

@johnjamesjacoby might be able to figure out why the BuddyPress Badge group isn’t being created:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-badge/

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

BP.org follows a similar approach to wp.org’s forums.

This is a worthy agenda topic for the next dev meeting though.

Look out for the next one here:
http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/

Add the topic as an agenda item when the time comes.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Good catch, travel-junkie.
I can duplicate the bug on BP 1.2.5.2.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Your example to use is your theme’s page.php file.
An example of a BP file is your theme’s /members/index.php file.

Compare the two files and make the necessary adjustments to /members/index.php. This will fix your member directory page. Then you’ll have to apply this to all your other BP templates.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

geekoftodd – Just judging by your Pastebin code, it sounds like you have a corrupted header.php file; unless you incorrectly pasted the contents of it.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

You can do so for member profiles, but not with groups at the moment.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

You’re using the BP Template Pack plugin, which is a quick fix.

You need to modify the BP templates that got moved into your theme so they match the structure of your theme’s page.php file.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

You have to go to the group admin settings and enable the discussion forum like on a regular BP install.

Are you the group admin, pcwriter?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Here’s the main changeset in BP 1.2 branch that Paul Hastings is referring to:
https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/3142

Several people have confirmed it works (including myself).

I should note that there have been other patches since then that JJJ has added, so you might want to just use the updated BP 1.2 branch.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

JJJ is the man! Didn’t expect the fast turnover as well!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 2 months ago]

Done

I’ll probably refactor this as a core patch in the next week or so, but here’s something to play around with:
http://pastebin.com/MpmneujE

Add this to your functions.php.
