BuddyPress.org

The profile labels and data are rendered in table rows. You could copy over the profile-loop.php file to your child theme folder /themes/childtheme/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php and change the table/rows/columns into divs/spans etc.

You will need to know CSS to make changes such a colors, and know how to target to specific area you want to change. I suggest using firefox and firebug. Below I have attempted to show you what you can change and can not change as far as starting a child theme style.css. This commented section has to be included in your child themes folders style.css and the folder with the style.css needs to be placed within wp-content/themes and you have to activate it. If its left blank it just inherits the bp-default style.css. If you correctly target what you want to change then this child themes style.css will over-ride the bp-default style.css. Whatever you target and decide you want to change needs to be placed after the closing comment ( */ ) of the the below code with proper CSS syntax. I hope this in some way explains it a little more clearly.

`/*
Theme Name: BuddyPress Dusk /*This can be changed*/
Theme URI: http://example.org/themes/dusk/ /*This can be changed*/
Description: Dark theme for BuddyPress. /*This can be changed*/
Version: 1.0 /*This can be changed*/
Author: John Doe /*This can be changed*/
Author URI: http://example.org/ /*This can be changed*/
Template: bp-default /*This CAN NOT be changed*/
Tags: buddypress, two-column, grey, dark /*You need to have buddypress in the Tags, the rest (example: two-column, grey, dark can change) */
*/`

== now my notification in the wp admin bar are not working ==

How is it not working? WP/BP versions? Have you done basic troubleshooting like changing to bp-default theme and/or deactivating plugins except BuddyPress?

Just checking in on this guys. If anyone has thoughts on this one happy to hear them.

At this time, changes have been made to include support for upcoming WP 3.4. which is not kosher with your current WP 3.3.1 install

In the meantime, you can already make the change to include Edit link in admin bar within your /plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php file – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5958

@bigjosh change to bp-default theme, then go to that group which was spelled incorrectly, and click Admin tab to edit name of group

@fmeroney as chrisclayton mentioned above, surround code with backticks ( ` ) the symbol between the parentheses

closing this. see https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/php-redirect-issue/

@fmeroney – Your example was eaten by the forum software (it happens when you don’t use “backticks“ around your code)

But, i’m guessing this is what your looking for? https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-redirect-to-profile/

@lovefishing – Did you have any extra plugins installed? I’ve heard of people getting suspended for a BuddyPress plugin using too much CPU but not from using BuddyPress out of the box. (personally, i was able to get a site to 1000 active users on one site on hostgator shared hosting before i was forced to move)

Also remember that you where on borrowed time. but you can optimize it: https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/improving-performance/

i don’t see the tab forum in my profile buddypress!!! O_o

I have been trying to do the same thing … i copied and pasted the contents of register.php into my home page php file but it does not show up … just stays blank …

Or how about something like https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/interactive-profile-fields-during-registration/#post-121132 ?

yoou use XML sitemap plugin, or stats plugins ?

if yes, try to disable it and contact Hosting if the CPU is normal

i am facing the same issue.

btw, BuddyPress.org seems to really hate me… why is my username “Deleted User” instead of gbennyb?

Same issue here, it is pretty frustrating as i try to figure out the different options, but i don’t find a central place which explains it me properly (o.e. the Codex, where it should be IMHO).
I am happy to put everything together in english and german after we resolved the issue, but i don’t get it running properly (neither technically, nor in my mind).

I. Core Definition

---

If i understand it correctly, there are serveral approaches to run BuddyPress on
a) MultiSite (WP Network)
and
b) MultiNetwork (BuddyPress Network)

Correct?

II. Different MultiSite Options

---

1.) MultiSite + different Websites with different BuddyPress Networks
2.) MultiSite + different Website but sharing the same userbase

1.) is clear to me, but 2.) envolves already the following subquestion:
– Can we have a single userbase, but with dedicated design per blog/domain? Let’s say we have a dog and a cat community. I would like to have the user “Frank” only once in both systems, but when he changes his profile on the cat-website, can he do it there, or will it be within one central design/domain?

III. Issue No. 1

---

Let’s assume we are running the current stable version of WP 3.3 and let’s assume the WordPress network runs properly, here already my first question:
I do normaly use the “WordPress MU Domain Mapping”, after a few tests with “BP Multi Network plugin”, i assume i should not have it running, correct?

IV. Issue No. 2

---

So, now i am trying to established on a WP MultiSite installation different (independant) Buddy Networks. So BP Multi Network plugin is the way to go, right?
What i don’t get is
“4. Activate BuddyPress on your sub network.” from https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-multi-network/installation/
I can activate BuddyPress ONLY for the whole network, not for each single (configured) domain/blog. What am i missing?

IV. Issue No. 3

---

When i activated define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2); (or ID 3 in my case), the possibilty to enter “activity” was gone from all domains, i just don’t get it

i have configured this here:
define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);

define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);

define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );
$base = ‘/’;
define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘XYZ.XYZ.vom’ );
define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );

/* WP MU Plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/installation/ */
define( ‘SUNRISE’, ‘on’ );

/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

Using standard Buddypress Theme from Plugin 1.5.5

IV. Issue No. 4

---

About the theme.
Where should i activate the theme? Per Domain or just in a central community?

Sorry for mixing up things, but that all is very unclear to me. Any ideas?

Here you go.

Tested this on my local install of BP, so should work.

== I mistakenly typed “enginner” instead of “engineer” can some please tell me how to correct the error? ==

@bigjosh Go to that specific group’s page http://www.yoursite.com/groups/enginner/ then click on Admin link which defaults to edit > group’s name/description

@roguedjinni reminder on the final note to copy modifications in your stylesheet per my post above so layout will look better.

@roguedjinni Thank you. But I just checked out your site and we need to make adjustments by deleting `

` at the top of the sidebar-buddypress.php. Save files and re-upload to server. I’ve updated the codes above for the both deletions.

Woops. Change the parent_url to ` ‘parent_url’ => trailingslashit( bp_displayed_user_domain() . ‘test_sub’ )`
