try
`<?php
global $groups_template;
$group_detail = $groups_template;
?>`

Now How to get the avatar to the right of Created by: ???

tried
`ul#groups-list.item-list li img.avatar {
margin- left: 100px;
}’

but it shoves the whole lot to the right.

Thanks for this tip in any event

Just might be of some help, though please note I am not a coder .

On a local site I have an image (2px by 162px) full width across a Buddypress Default Child theme.

I have a menu in the top 37px as I have disabled the bp admin bar.

the code i came up with is as follows.

`body {

background-color: #eaeaea;

background-image: url(images/headpixf.png );

background-repeat: repeat-x;

background-position: top center;

color: #555;

font-size: 12px;

font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif;

line-height: 170%;

margin: 0 auto;

max-width: auto;

width: 100%;

}

#header {

background: transparent;

-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 10px;

-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 10px;

border-bottom-left-radius: 10px;

-moz-border-radius-bottomright: 10px;

-webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 10px;
-khtml-border-radius-bottomleft: 10px;
-khtml-border-radius-bottomright: 10px;

border-bottom-right-radius: 10px;

color: #fff;

-moz-box-shadow: 0 0px 5px transparent;

-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0px 5px transparent;

height: 37px;

padding-top: 25px;

position: relative;

z-index: 1000;

width: 1000px;

margin: 0 auto 90px;

}`

Good luck!

The plugin BuddyPress Groupblog at https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-groupblog/ MAY go some of the way in answering your queries.

---

” The BuddyPress Groupblog plugin extends the group functionality by enabling each group to have a single blog associated with it. Group members are automatically added to the blog and will have blog roles as set by the groupblog admin settings.”

IF you are using a custom theme you MAY need to change the template files of the plugin to suit your theme as per BP Template Pack instructions e.g. plugins—-> bp-album —->includes

---

>templates

---

>album

>files in here

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 6 months ago]

For those using Suffusion the following template changes for followers.php & following.php work (at least for me)

Top
`

<div >`

and At Bottom

`

`

Thanks again.

Didn’t work on the root blog. The root blog had its own wp-signup.php page.
For now, I’m using a rewriterule in .htaccess and redirecting to the BP subblog’s register page.

Any more detail on this please. What to put in .htaccess in this situation

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Afraid not.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Checkout http://blogs.ubc.ca/ and https://buddypress.org/showcase/

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

First, Many thanks for this addition.

So far,v.1.2 appears to work as intended on a buddypress single site set-up.

However in a multisite set-up (local with define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2 ) the BP Group Plus link does not appear under the BuddyPress admin menu.

Keep going if you have the time.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

In mysite.com/wp-admin/network/settings.php

Have you checked Both sites and user accounts can be registered. in Settings—->Network Settings ???

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

can reproduce – but ONLY WHEN YOU REMOVE the Link Url .

if link url is left in all is well.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

BP Xtra Signup is in the PASS list on https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-plugin-compatibility/.

Works perfectly in single site setup.

BUT

On a multisite set-up with buddypress root blog on a subdirectory BP Xtra Signup’s settings page does not show up and so it can’t be used.

Thanks for your great work. Would like to have this confirmed/contradicted if possible.

redid this now. and success. Convoluted explanation. Script not executed memory shortage !
Added define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’); to wp-config. No relief !
but am redirected to page not found but with a reference to myEasyBackup plugin.
Deactivated this plugin.
Logged out. Logged in.
reinstall.
Am asked by BP about permalinks and then to create each page-click and am redirected to the CORRECT subdirectory (ie blog 14).
All as it should be from then on.
Thanks and sorry for wasting time.

reinstalled 1.2.10 on site A. all well.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

A note on this. may or may not be relevant.

Have two test multisite installations both with subdirectories and both with bp installed on a subdirectory via wp-config -define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 14 );

One (say A) I left BP on 1.2.9 and then on 1.2.10.

The other (say I was continually updating via ftp to server with the trunk version right up to 5176 (which btw is labelled 5175 on trunk page). here the bp subdirectory is (define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2 );

B is fine up to now with 5176

To-day, once 1.5 was made official I tried updating A in the normal fashion via the WordPress.
disabled plugins etc

Went to Wizard but the references to the bp pages are all for blog id 1 not to blog id 14 and if i go to the pages via browser I get Error 404 – Not Found

Hope this is of some use. Thanks for all the work you guys have done. Is there any remedy for Site A (not urgent).

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

Just to note this is NOTin any way urgent for me.

and that inserting

body button,
body a.button {
color: #A4C2DD;
}

body a.button:hover {
color: #397193;
}

does the trick. Many thanks for the months of work on 1.5

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

put the test site online at http://ruby.de-nws.com/susanx/ get in with usr joly and pw joly

see http://ruby.de-nws.com/susanx/activity/ etc

have taken away the !important at
button,
a.button,
input[type=submit],
input[type=button],
input[type=reset],

and the subsequent hover button.

So the changes to color ie #A4C2DD and hover color #397193 are not coming through in the buttons.
put !important back and the colors come back.

just one thing. I would have done the compatability folder thing on or about sept 5th so subsequent changes to that element may not be incorporated. Also did the 13 file changes rather than the new way.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

third party theme techozoic-fluid
took out the !important s and empty cache reloaded page

the button color is now gone back and appears to be taking the color from bp.css: 653 as per Web inspector
my import style at :8888/chatty/?techozoic_css=css:1921 is crossed out in Web inspector. Please don’t do this on my say so as i can revert with !important .
button,
will be back tomorrow.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

Worth trying this – may work

`<a href="/edit”>Edit Profile`

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

Copied from https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/buddybar-widget/trunk/buddybar-widget.php

`<a href="”>Messages`
or
`<a href="”>Inbox`

`<a href="/sentbox”>Sent`

and so on

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

try this just might work-please let me know

`<a href="”>My Mail`

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

I use

`<a href="/members/display_name; echo $userName;?>/messages/inbox”>My Mail`

and it appears to work.

but this could be refined by someone who knows how to do these things. I’m making it up as i go.

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

for members, groups etc i have used

`<a href="/members/”>Members`

and for specific members, groups etc i have used (say for a member’s profile)

`<a href="/members/display_name; echo $userName;?>/profile” >My Profile`

and so on

but mods may refine these as i am making it up as i go !

[@valuser Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

I also successfully used the old method (13 or so files) with the new bp template pack. Couldn’t figure out whether or not I was using the new method correctly so can’t really comment on it. But the old method with the new bp template pack does the job.
