@mercime,

This is what I have. I went ahead and labeled the categories as parents. Does this look about right? Please advise.

Thank you,
VS

Alright. Thanks for the tip. I will try over there and see what they can suggest for the change. Thanks for getting back to me. =)

Thank you so much for taking the time out to help. So far, I’ve went ahead and created the categories just like you described. Would I use these categories as a parent to the subtopics?

Thanks so much! =))

Hello?

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

It worked out….so it’s ay-ok! Thanks!

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

I will try researching the firbug for firefox. I am open to it if it helps to give a smoother cleaner page for buddypress. I think creating a child theme is the best option since it seems that changes occur always. It would help anchor some of the work that already works! I will get in touch with my guys at elegantthemes.com. THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

This is great! Let me tell you. So this is what my activity page shows now as I click on it.

The sides of the bars are a bit off. Is there anyway to line this up? Should i talk to the people at elegant themes for this one? What can i do? Again, your help is highly valued. THANK YOU GRATELY!

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

Oh Ma Gawd!!!! It worked and it feels like a million bucks! I spent quite a bit of time to get this. Couldn’t have done it without you guys! I am so excited! Can you tell?!

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

Ok, I will try. I hope this works! I will let you know. =)

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

bphelp- I sure did! The community tab shows in the menu on the front page.

Dasped- I did try your suggestions and a few other things, but i think youre right, it could be some extra tweaking dealing with my I am currently trying to work this out with them although they claim not to support third parties (sigh). I may need to also directly consult with a professional bp developer. If you happen to know of any, definitely let me know. But I won’t give up till it’s complete. Thank you so much for your efforts. =)

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

Desped,

Thank you greatly for the response. Let me be clear about what it is I am trying to achieve. I would like to put all the buddpress functions under a tab (page) called “community”. I have tried this but have been unsuccessful when viewing the actual “community page.

I have made this page the parent page and added all the other buddy press created pages under this parent page.

Then I put them all under the menu tab.

On the main page, I do have the “Community” page in the tabs. However when I click on this, this is all I see.

At this point, I am trying to troubleshoot this issue and not finding any resolution via youtube, and all the resources I have mentioned. I am wondering, should I be creating a child theme? Not sure what will show the buddypress functions under this community tab. Please advise.

Thank you.

Thank you for that GordonRe. I will be more detailed from now and on. At the time, i am using WordPress3.5.1 i have downloaded the buddypress 1.7 beta version with the elegantthemes-lucid. I have looked at some of the links you have mentioned and I will start to read these documents more…as I learn more.

1. At the time, I am seeing that the installation is fine but I am getting widgets on the bottom of the screen. I would like to remove these widgets.

2. When i click on the “activation” page, it prompts me to enter my activation key…

3. As of now, i am not seeing Buddypress on the home page, but i would like to add a community tab that will lead to all the buddy press features. Please see illustration. Is there a way to do this?

I know I am asking for a lot at once but I would appreciate any help with any of the above!

Thank you! =)

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

Looking forward to it!

[@virtualsouq Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

Well, i did follow the steps the 2nd alternative… I guess you’re recommending the first alternative? I will take your tip and download the beta version. Any projected date for the actual release of the 1.7?
