BuddyPress.org

Change to bp-default theme and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress. Either it’s the Huddle theme which might need updating and/or the s2Member plugin etc. that’s causing the issue, not BuddyPress. If so, please contact respective devs for theme and/or plugins.

@indyowls I would need pastebin of some other files as well. But if you’re using the ifeatures free theme here https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ifeature then you won’t need to add any more pastes.

@videogamerznet Arras is no longer hosted at WP Theme Repo.
Which Arras theme version did you download from Google code home http://code.google.com/p/arras-theme/downloads/list ? You might want to install the a) Theme Check plugin and b) Log Deprecated Notices plugin to check if the Arras theme version you have has been updated for WordPress 3.3 at the very least before thinking of making it compatible with BuddyPress.

@roguedjinni Are you using this colorway theme? — > https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/colorway

@zeshan87 Did you enable group forums in each group settings? https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/4/#forums-faqs

Are you on Windows or Linux server or locally hosted on WAMP, MAMP, or XAMPP?

If on webhosting service, did you install WordPress via webhost script like Fantastico or Simplescripts, etc.? Start from scratch and install WordPress manually as in upload via FTP/cPanel/etc. Otherwise, please check server requirements plus WP configurations https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-server

@annie_whitt_wen If you delete class .custom-backgroun from body then your custom background image will be in all site pages including that of BP Pages.
So change
`body.custom-background {
background-image: url(“http://www.teachertime123.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/chlkbrd_bkgrnd4.jpg”);
//etc. etc.
}`
to
`body {
background-image: url(“http://www.teachertime123.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/chlkbrd_bkgrnd4.jpg”);
// etc. etc.
}`

It wont let you choose your sidebar shown, but Dynamic Widgets plugin will let you show specific widgets for certain pages.

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 revised up to your server wp-content/themes/minimatica/

D. You might also want to check out 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/

@pfelberg I know you wanted the second option. But based on the HTML structure of your theme, you’d need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your Minimatica 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
`

Install and activate Frisco theme, that’s it.

Do not use BP Template Pack on Frisco theme because it’s already compatible with BuddyPress.

If you already used the BP Template Pack plugin on Frisco theme, then
1. deactivate the plugin and
2. delete Frisco theme (to delete the BP template folders transferred), then
3. download and re-install Frisco theme again.
