Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from `
…
` or `
..
` to `
// Titles Of Respective BP Page Templates //
`, just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.

Oh and I can’t open a development tracker ticket because the link above this post (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket/) gives me this page:
Error: Forbidden TICKET_CREATE privileges are required to perform this operation
Sorry, I was doing work on my site and took the BP theme down. It’s back up. Tried removing Buddypress and reinstalling it, but it still recognizes all of the old settings. Here’s my forum page: http://www.mrhensler.com/forums/ Clicking on any of the forums yields nothing.
Got it!
go to yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-page-settings (Or buddypress-> Pages in CMS)
There you will see an option of creating a new page for Registration…
just click on it and you will be sorted..
Thanks
I wasnt trying to delete anything apart from pages within wordpress I wasnt using. I had originally installed a shopping plugin but the pages still stayed on and I thought I was deleting the registration page for that but it was for the buddy press theme.
I never went into my FTP and deleted any files only deleted the page from wordpress back office.
Now I get a message saying that The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Search Page, Register. Repair
When I got to the buddy press page to repair it I cant?
just download buddypress in your Hard Drive and upload (ONLY) registration.php
nothing to re-install again!
Thank you for your prompt response! I appreciate it. The only problem I have with my site is that it looks fine in all browsers but the internet explorer?! I have installed BuddyPress Sliding Login Panel and BuddyPress Activity Stream Bar plugins which everything looks nice and fine in any other browsers except in internet explorer in which both plugins expand vertically instead of horizontally as it should be. Therefore, my site looks very strange with the two plugins stretch out both at the top and bottom, so they cover the whole page?!
I have now created a test user, so you could login and investigate the issue for me which is:
Username: test
Password: 789456
Thank you for your help,
If you only have one group, then you can just hardcode the group name in the member-header.php file. Copy over this file from bp-default theme https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.5/bp-themes/bp-default/members/single/member-header.php into your theme i.e., wp-content/themes/YourThemeFolder/members/single/member-header.php
Open up member-header.php file and right beside
`<a href="”>` , add `(Microsoft)` for example
@marcacer Here’s a tutorial from Dennis Smolek to get you started for fields during group creation – https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/how-to-edit-group-meta-tutorial/
or, if you can wait until after the group is created – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-groups-extras/
B. At the bottom of the same 16 files, replace:
`
`
with the following (except for registration/register.php):
`
`
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();
});
});
`
Save files.
C. Upload the 6 BP folders containing the 16 files you’ve just revised to your server wp-content/themes/canyon/
D. Copy the style modifications made in BP Twenty Ten at https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ and paste to your theme’s stylesheet. Adjust to taste.
@brainiacwebdesigns you need to go to Step 3 of the BP Compatibility process, fix alignment of the BP template files to mesh with your theme’s HTML structure.
Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your canyon theme folder in server during the compatibility process.
If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder in server, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders – /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
`
with

Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from `

ok so i found the file youre talking about in root/lib/css, and this
.container_12,
.container_16 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 960px;
}
on line 47. i switched 960 to 1020, but i see no difference. any other ideas/
i have no css folder in my themes root folder. the style.css file is right in the root
if i can make it look good then yes, id like a sidebar. like i said, im no css pro lol, very novice
Your welcome. and im sorry, it is 960.css.. in your theme files, /themeroot/css/960.ss line 94. it should look like this.
.container_12,
.container_16 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 960px; // switch 960px to 1020px
}
also, do you plan on having a sidebar in the buddypress pages?
i know basic css and have firebug lite installed and all that, im just no expert. Which css file, i opened my themes and line 94 i dont think is right for that. if its a buddypress css theme, where is it located? i also buddypress template pack installed, which i thought was supposed to make it all fit together better. thanks again for your help yadigit
on line 94 in style.css of your theme change it to
.container_main {
width: 1020px; // this is the change.
background-color: #FFF;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 20px 0;
}
(does not fix the sidebar)
Your best bet is to install buddypress template (plugin) and follow the steps ( it seems that your buddypress css is already linked to your theme)
Hint: If you are using google chrome as your browser right click on the page and click inspect element, to your right and side there is the layout of the css, you can edit the css to see what you need to change, it will show you what line and what file to change it in. ( you must have some knowledge of css/html)
Hello, im going to tell you a quick easy way to do step number 1.
Create a field called School or w.e you want to make it and make a drop down field of all the schools that you can think of.
I would also download buddyprress-better-directory ( it may not scale well with your theme depending on what theme you are using )
so now onto question number 2. As I said for your answer for number one, using the drop down menu for the schools will make it easier to search rather then having the members type in their school. as far as searching for UNC and University of North Carolina, Im sure the search would list all the UNC first, then list the University of North Carolina,
I would also suggest installing s2Members (plugin) and follow the steps to help make your buddypress/wordpress more secure,
@vuiet914
Best of Luck,
Ps, this is just a suggestion and it really isn’t a FULL answer to your questions.
thank you @mercime !
I found that the problem come from the theme ‘photum’… I checked it out and found its author doesn’t look like a bad guy to me so it should be mostly the compatibility problem I think… but I’ll take your advice especially the backup one!
The rewrite_module is working fine on my server. I used Greengeeks shared hosting and it runs all of my wordpress sites without error. Like I said, all of my regular buddypress pages work fine… it’s just the pages linked to on the buddybar.
@turfnet Code posted for page.php are re dynamic sidebar widgets and not a page. Please double-check if what you posted above is correct. If not, then post new pastebin.com URL for page.php with correct code.
If it was indeed the code the theme author posted there, I want to see the codes for index1.php, index2.php, index3.php and index4.php
Thanks for the fast reply. I seem to be able to post pictures and use the gallery function that is built in the standard Buddypress plugin (including images in posts), but when I try to use BP Album or BP Photos+tags I encounter the problem.
Here is my site : http://www.northernlive.co.uk
I sounds like you have the same problem as I had.
Check out this post, and you might have do as I have added in the last post of the topic.

Deactivate BuddyPress and BP plugins. Can you add a regular WP image gallery to your Posts/Pages? Are the images showing up in published posts/pages?
== The Issue is, when setting a Front page different from BLOG in the WP reading menu, I get the “too many redirects” error. ==
@gnoric Create a special WP template file named home.php, add content you have in /home/, remove the Home page you created before, and upload home.php to your current theme folder. Whatever content/code you place there will automatically show up in home page.
