BuddyPress.org

So per the last reply to this thread, if my template, wootheme “Delicious Magazine” is not listed on the codex template doc, then would that be the reason why when I installed buddypress to my website, it does not seem to work? Everything appears to have installed correctly, only I cannot find BP other than on my dashboard. There does not even seem to be a place where people can sign up on my website. I am so confused…

I think I may have the same problem? I installed the buddy pack, but nothing seems to work….I am actually having difficulty finding it. No idea where people can register on my website. I have the Woo Themes “Delicious Magazine” template. Wondering since I did not see it listed on your codex page, BuddyPress may not be compatible with my website? Any form of help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

All CSS changes (and others) must be done from within your child theme. That’s the reason of the child theme 😉
If you do that in bp-default, they gone at the buddypress next update

I’m not sure, but is this what you mean: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

It sounds like you have both bbPress installed (maybe as a WP plugin?) as well as buddyPress Discussion Forums enabled (which are a watered-down version of bbPress). Any insight on your ‘custom install’ would be quite helpful.

What version of buddyPress are you using?

@ed161718 page.php requires content-page.php and I need the code to the latter to complete the instructions.

== the sidebars are showing up under the main content ==

Hmm, fixing alignment about should have resolved that. I’ll check your site in a moment.

== what is the relevance of the M Flora Peterson picture ==

Sorry about that I was comparing the codes of both Akita and Alyeska https://buddypress.org/community/groups/installing-buddypress/forum/topic/customising-alyeska-theme-for-buddypress/ which had that image and forgot to delete it from code posted. I’ve deleted it above now.

== page heading, members bar and second divider are also out of place ==

Did you add the styles from codex page I referred to above? That would have taken in the horizontal overflow of the item and sub navigation elements.

I need to be able to show / Hide XProfile groups based on select value during the registration phase. I’m a newbie to all this so could someone please help on how accomplish this.

Is that possible with buddypress? Has this plugin been created?

== I like how on yahoo groups or google groups or lots of other places you can just hit reply in your email. ==

See @r-a-y project https://github.com/r-a-y/bp-reply-by-email

Say it isn’t so!

Handy for you in this case, but a nightmare generally speaking. A class of ‘confirm’ is something that’s quite likely to be used by devs, without wanting any unexpected Javascript kicking in.

The classname should be namespaced in the core.

@zillabuggs first time I heard about this issue in the Group Forums. Is bbPress plugin (Sitewide Forums) also activated? WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? What plugins are activated in your installation?

Does it work using the bp-default theme and with all your plugins (apart from BuddyPress) deactivated?

Try the pluggin “BuddyPress Private Community”

Here’s a related thread — although, about post urls rather than member profile URLs, in the activity stream. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/changing-wordpress-permalinks-breaks-old-buddypress-activity-updates-links/

Storing the post URL independent of the permalink structure, is a simple enough fix. It’s harder to think of a solution that could deal with 3rd party plugins (or manual) changes to the member URL structure (other than the core BuddyPress being enhanced to support a ‘permalink’ settings for BP members / components similar to those applied by WP to posts, categories, etc.)

@bifrost glad you resolved it, just that.

B. At the bottom of the same 16 files, replace:
`

`

with the following (except for registration/register.php):
`

<?php
themeblvd_main_bottom();
themeblvd_main_end();
get_footer();`

with the following for registration/register.php:
`

jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});

<?php
themeblvd_main_bottom();
themeblvd_main_end();
get_footer();`

Save files.

C. Upload the 6 BP folders containing the 16 files you’ve just revised to your server wp-content/themes/akita/

D. Go to the style modifications made in BP Twenty Ten for reference especially with removing the bullets and bringing in the extended width of the BP elements. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ and copy these over to your theme’s stylesheet and adjust as needed.

@keats18 Per scan of your theme’s HTML structure, you’d need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your Akita theme folder in server during the compatibility process.

If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility.

Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.

A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`

@ed161718 just checked the codes you posted. For the catch box theme, you would need to revise 16 template files from the BP template folders transferred to your theme folder in wp-content/themes/catch-box/ during the Appearance > BP Compatibility process. If you still want the instructions, let me know.
