@micjavier Your theme has default button.span that’s display: block which stretched out BP’s span tag. To resolve the issue, add this to your stylesheet
`a.bp-primary-action span,
#reply-title small a span {
display: inline;
}`
@mercime Hi Mercime, here’s a your test user login User: mercime Pass: qwerty12345
after you login go to this page: http://www.secretpaperbox.com/members/pulsemaggots/
You wil see in the Activity “Comments Button and Favorite” are meesed up, and now i cant even write a comment to someone. Please help. Thanks in advance.
@rairai-ni please start a new topic and include the information you posted above. This topic is specific to the Yoko theme.
@mercime it is squared but extremely pixilated…
I’ve read the details at codex.buddypress.org and tried the “tests” for correct WordPress install.
They all seem to work.
I also read: `”WordPress should be installed manually i.e. via FTP, cpanel, etc. and NOT via webhost scripts (fantastico, softalicious, etc.)which bring about numerous issues when BuddyPress is activated.”`
Apparently I’m off into “various issues” land. Are these issues listed anywhere? Since my WP seems to pass the listed tests? What else could be going on?

BuddyPress is not sending any activity notifications emails…. when someone registers, etc.
The outgoing tests from WordPress work fine. Help?
== Actually, I’d like BP to appear only in a member section, so not directly in my index page, ==
@sb0n The revisions I posted above touched only the 16 template files within 6 template folders transferred to your theme’s folder in the server during the BP compatibility process, not your theme’s index.php page. I would suggest re-uploading your theme’s files manually via FTP as something else might have messed up your theme’s index.php
== changing/moving header tags ==
Sorry about that, code has been updated
@mercime Thank you so much !! : )
I changed everything and it work like a charm ; except for one thing I’m not sure about :
“Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from
…
or
..
to
AND move title to above
Just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.”
When you say “Titles Of Respective BP Page” which part am I supposed to change : “page-entry-header” into “page-entry-registrer” (for instance) or “entry-title” into “entry-register” or both, or neither ?
Also, with the changes everything works except the index.php page of my theme.
Actually, I’d like BP to appear only in a member section, so not directly in my index page, did I miss something / how could I do that ?
Thank you ! 
I’d like to make a local install of WP + BP so that I have a “sandbox.”
How would I clone or replicate my local install to my hosted server?
I know that I can SCP or FTP the files from the web site folders, but then how do I deal with the required database files and supporting parts?

Other than the issues described in the codex article, is BP v1.6.1 supposed to work with WP v3.4.1 or v3.4.2 without much grief?
I’ve contacted my hosting vendor to discover how to best proceed with the corrections you suggest that I need.
Thanks,

@ssmltd more info required to troubleshoot. Windows or Linux server? WP/BP versions? Single/Multisite? Theme used? Plugins installed?
This looks interesting.
Don’t suppose you have anything for multi site
Also how does one start a new topic here?
I can see from the source of your site that you’re using WP 3.2.2
BuddyPress 1.6 requires at least WP version 3.4
It is when I get to step of the BuddyPress Setup that I get the Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_themes() in /home/XXXX/public_html/XXXXXXX.COM/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/admin/bp-core-update.php on line 519.
It is driving me mad…..what am I doing wrong??
Please help!!
I don’t find this line. It’s only 76 lines in that file now. I would like this feature too I think others also needs it.
Hey there community
I’m running buddypress fine on my site but client now wants the email sent from registration as a long custom one. Is there a way to format something decent to get sent during this process? I’ve searched a bit but to no avail so far.
I can modify the text within the registration.php file but it seems that apostrophe isn’t supported in php codes!!!
Can anyone please help!
This has been reported in trac. Check out possible solution for your installation https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4571
@newmember01 you need to install/activate the BP Template Pack plugin to make your WP theme compatible with BuddyPress. Then you have to go through the BP Compatibility Process. A MusicLife theme that looks very much like your WordPress 40005 theme has been set up for Step 3 per https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
Thanks @mercime, however this would just change what is in the groups, would it not? not allow a user to have his or her own that can be edited, as i said i want them seperate from the already existing groups and group blogs.
Ciao @mercime thanks for your help… I have tried all your suggeston, but nothing changed.
Do you think is a matter of perission?
I really hope in another suggestion… many thanks…
Francesco
@sb0n Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your yoko theme folder in server during the compatibility process.
After (literally) hundreds of folks asking for help with how to get BuddyPress & bbPress playing “nice” with one another, I made this video to walk step by step through the entire process. I’ve also included a few insider tricks to get past the pitfalls.
It’s long (16 minutes), but takes you from blank WP installation all the way to a gorgeous Frisco child theme setup with group forums and sitewide forums living in harmony.
If you are frustrated or stuck, please grab a beverage and have a view:

== but when someone goes to create site in their dashboard it says page not found. ==
@twc01 Please clarify, when you say “dashboard”, do you mean via wp-admin? The “Create a Blog” link in Blogs Directory page using bp-default theme should go to a form in the front end where users can enter required information to set up their new blogs/subsites. Only Super Admin can create a new blog/subsite via wp-admin network.
