BuddyPress.org

Hi Thanks to All! @Metric and @Presence Films, thanks for your inputs and I will try using the mentioned plugin. @FIQ I have asked the member to try to login from some other browser than the one she normally uses (to avoid reloading cached pages) and I am waiting for her response.

As a last ditch effort to determine the problem I left all of my plugins and scripts in place, switched the theme I’m using to the default BuddyPress theme, and behold it works! So I now have a post on the Aquoid Forums to see why Suffusion is stopping autocomplete from functioning. I would still welcome any answers here, if you have any ideas… But the problem does appear to be with the Suffusion Theme.

Hi – thanks for the replies. Here’s where I’ve gotten so far:

The BP Resume Page is fine now (I played with its css a bit) . http://wpohio.com/members/ameeker/resume/

But the BuddyPress Portfolio are still looking and acting completely separate from the theme.
http://wpohio.com/members/ameeker/portfolio/
http://wpohio.com/portfolio/

I just can’t get my head around where to start with it yet. I’m a little bit new to BuddyPress, so I’d like to understand how the BP specific plugins can work in conjunction with the themes and BP. The BP plugin authors have the option to build out their templating and css independent of the theme (of course, that makes sense)? So then if I’m working with one of those (like this BP Portfolio), how do I retain the templating and CSS that is important to the plugin while telling the plugin to use the overarching BuddyPress theming of the theme? It’s not JUST a matter of CSS changes in the plugin, I assume?

Kind of talking outloud here, I know. Not even sure of the question to ask, to be honest!

On a side note, I don’t mind editing the buddypress core to keep this from happening. We keep notes on core modifications and update them on each new version of buddypress.

It looks like the problem if there is one is in xprofile_screen_edit_profile() function on bp-xprofile-screens.php.

Any specific type of plugin that would do it?
Something usuall or a buddypress add on plugin?

This is what it says in the dashboard at the top.

You’ll need to activate a BuddyPress-compatible theme to take advantage of all of BuddyPress’s features. We’ve bundled a default theme, but you can always install some other compatible themes or update your existing WordPress theme.

I tried to do what you said but sadly it didn’t work.

What about layout. I want it to match of of my theme and put the logo at the top of the site. Has it been updated 3.4.1?

@modemlooper, the main top menu nav of my site, i want to use icon instead of word “Home”. i know i have to give it class before i can style it but i dont know which file i can find nav bar as it is not in the header.php

Regards

@RogerCoathup, i have no problem with the css aspect of it, but i need to give the link a class to be able to style it . because its part of WP Nav. see below

Again concerning this issue and commenting on @djpaul

It might be a bbPress bug. You should start a discussion on the bbPress forums at bbpress.org,

I guess this is a Buddypress issue too. Not saying that its original cause isn’t related with how bbPress handles buddypress integration but the fact is once you install sitewide forums you don’t get sitewide forums activity integration as promised, only groups forum integration.

You should go deep on this and make sure someone fix it.

I’ve just made a new install in a new subdomain with no plugins, default theme, only WP, BP and BBP and it just doesn’t update sitewide forums at activity stream.

Unless my hosting is causing this, there’s an important bug around.
