BuddyPress.org

Trying to accomplish the same objective, I found this article: https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/1463

After following the setup directions, when I created a new user, created a blog, created a post, and then went to view the post, it appeared in the expected theme. As the user, I *did not* need to go to set the theme myself.

Towards the end of the thread, there is the following

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As of 2.7 this information:

….

===========================================

Lines 311 and 312 of wp-admin/includes/schema.php in the populate_options function.

add_option(‘template’, ‘yourthemename’);

add_option(‘stylesheet’, ‘yourthemename’);

===========================================

yeah, it was in v1.1 for sure. i used it for my first component. i found a reference in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-example/bp-example-cssjs.php in v1.1. I tried adding this back myself and it didn’t work.

/**

* bp_example_add_activity_bullets_css()

*

* This function will allow your component to dynamically add CSS to themes so that you can

* set the activity feed icon to use for your component.

*/

function bp_example_add_activity_bullets_css() {

?>

li a#my-example, li a#user-example {

background: url(<?php echo site_url( MUPLUGINDIR . \'/bp-example/images/heart_bullet.png\' ) ?>) 88% 50% no-repeat;

}



li.example {

background: url(<?php echo site_url( MUPLUGINDIR . \'/bp-example/images/heart_bullet.png\' ) ?>) 0 8% no-repeat;

}



table#bp-example-notification-settings th.icon {

background: url(<?php echo site_url( MUPLUGINDIR . \'/bp-example/images/heart_bullet.png\' ) ?>) 50% 50% no-repeat;

}

<?php

}

add_action( \'bp_custom_member_styles\', \'bp_example_add_activity_bullets_css\' );

add_action( \'bp_custom_home_styles\', \'bp_example_add_activity_bullets_css\' );



?>

I’m having the same problem. I just installed BuddyPress 1.0rc2 today, and it’s the first WPMU install for me, and obviously the first BP install as well. I’ve been running WP for over 2 years though, on the same server (different domain), with complete success.

The install seemed to go fine, and I followed the instructions to also use the BP-home theme for the WPMU home page as well (it fails with any of the 4 choices of home page themes).

The site comes up correctly in IE7. In Firefox (3.0.10) and Chrome (2.0.174.0), no CSS gets loaded.

I’m running this on CentOS 5.2, using NginX 0.7.53. WP runs perfectly.

It’s not an “access” problem. Firebug shows that the CSS file is read correctly (and I can see all of the lines in there, so NginX is serving up the CSS). But, for whatever reason, FF and Chrome both decide that it’s not CSS, and just ignore the styles completely (Firebug says that there are no style elements on the page).

Looking at the NginX debug logs, IE takes the css file with an “Accept: */*” and FF takes it with an “Accept: text/css”. Otherwise, I don’t see any obvious differences.

If I code up my own html file, and use the exact same syntax for the css <link> line that BP generates, FF will _correctly_ parse the css file.

The only thing that seems strange in the BP generated code is that the HTML fails the W3C validator for including an “id=_wpnonce” in the hidden search form field _two times_. But, if I remove one of those lines, FF still fails to parse the css.

Here are the links (the site has zero in it at the moment):

http://songsandjingles.com/wordpress-mu/

Here is a link to my “test” html file, which loads the same css file (where I added yellow as the background color in custom.css):

http://songsandjingles.com/wordpress-mu/testme.html

Just to show that the css file is accessible:

http://songsandjingles.com/wordpress-mu/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/style.css

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

P.S. The most obvious difference between my tiny HTML file and the generated one is that I have no DOCTYPE or “profile=” in mine…

Have you made ANY changes to your themes? i.e. Changed div’s by adding or removing any of them? Changed anything in the stylesheets? One wrong letter or character can break everything. (believe me I know lol)

I may be mistaken but I’m pretty sure the home theme runs for everything except what you see when at http://yoursite.com/members/”whatever&#8221;

If you could either set up a test user for us or even just set the admin bar to show for logged out users, that’d be helpful.

try adding a direct link to style sheet in header

<link rel=\”stylesheet\” href=\”http://illdesigned.com/user/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/base.css\” type=\”text/css\” media=\”screen\” />

See the other thread on this, but your host is injecting ad code into the loader.php that pulls the stylesheet.

view source on:

http://illdesigned.com/user/barrymadden/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/loader.php

as near as I can tell,

/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/loader.php

is not pulling the stylesheet properly. I would guess that the problem is coming from your host, as they are trying to inject an iframe into that page upon execution.

I’ll try to set a little plugin or something later, but for the moment you can follow this method, it’s the Fishbowl81’s code adapted for ebay editor kit:

Edit your bp-xprofile-filters.php by placing the following code after the custom buddypress filters:

function bp_profile_ebay_display( $field_value "", $field_type = "", $field_id = "" ) {

{ // clean up input

return "<script language='JavaScript' src='http://lapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&ai=lwa%7Bfwvw%7Esa%7Cwsyw%60&bdrcolor=CCCCCC&cid=0&eksize=1&encode=UTF-8&endcolor=FF0000&endtime=n&fbgcolor=FFFFFF&fntcolor=000000&fs=0&hdrcolor=FFFFFF&hdrimage=1&hdrsrch=n&img=y&lnkcolor=75179C&logo=3&num=5&numbid=n&paypal=n&popup=n&prvd=9&r0=4&shipcost=n&si=".addslashes($field_value)."&sid=BP&siteid=0&sort=MetaEndSort&sortby=endtime&sortdir=asc&srchdesc=n&tbgcolor=FFFFFF&tlecolor=FFFFFF&tlefs=0&tlfcolor=000000&toolid=10004&track=5336248810&watchcat=63850&width=350'></script>";

}

}

function bp_profile_ebay_groups( $group_name "") {

if($group_name == "My Ebay listings"){

remove_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2);

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'bp_profile_ebay_display', 2, 3);

}else{

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2, 3);

remove_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'bp_profile_ebay_display', 2);

}

return $group_name;

}

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_group_name', 'bp_profile_ebay_groups', 10, 1 );

Also it depend of your css code but it can be useful to put this in your member theme’s stylesheet (base or your custom stylesheet).

Then create a profile field group named “My Ebay listings” and a profile field like ebay username and you’re done!

Not specifically… although I have tried using the loader.php to load styles via custom.css over base.css. No effect. I can’t see a reference to bp_styles() in the buddypress templates anywhere… any idea where should I be looking?

Cheers.

update: Scratch that… found it in member theme. But adding that to the home theme has no effect (and it doesn’t appear to be included in the default bp home theme anyway).

Why have you written to replace the member-themes directory??

You can change the name of facebuddy theme directory

is that under gpl? <– if yes i’ll add styles for the bpdev-autosuggest plugin

if (the group is XBOX) add_action(‘wp_print_styles’, ‘your style hook’)

i made a good set of functions in bpdev theme to add stylesheet with condition, look here:

http://trac.bp-dev.org/plugins/browser/trunk/bpdev-theme/bpdev-theme-extra.php

look line 9:

function bpdev_theme_register_style( $slug, $name, $callback, $default = 'off', $admin_show = 'on', $condition = true, $priority = 1 ) {

it means that with this function you will be able to add styles in wordpress/buddypress integrating them in the bpdev admin interface to activate or deactivate them,

in your example you need a plugin like that called for example my-styles-bpdev.php

<?php

/*

Author: Nicola Greco

Author URI: http://nicolagreco.com

*/



require_once( 'bp-core.php' );

require_once( 'bpdev-core.php' );



function bpdev_search_css() {



global $group_obj;



bpdev_theme_register_style(

'my-styles', // your style slug name

'XBOX Styles', // your style name

'xbox_styles_function', // callback

'on', // status "on" on default

'off', // off will not display it in admin interface

$group_obj->id = 1; // the group ID

);



}



function xbox_styles_function() { // example of css content

?>

#header {

background: #FFF;

}

<?php

}



add_action( 'bpdev_theme_extra_setup_globals', 'bpdev_search_css' ); // it will add the style



?>

It’s okay to do anything you want with the theme files, just as you would do in WordPress.

You don’t need the loader.php stuff if you don’t want to, however, it does add some extra functionality, such as cross theme CSS and the ability to selectively load styles.
