BuddyPress.org

B. At the very bottom of the 16 files, replace:
`

`

with (except for the /registration/register.php file):
`

`

with the following for /registration/register.php file
`

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 and upload following the directory structure.

Disclaimer: this may or may not work depending on what that customized theme renders via options in the templates. If that occurs, you can point theme dev to this post and he/she would be able to direct you to a corrected structure.

Also, if there’s a php error after this has been uploaded, it might very well be that you would have to delete the breadcrumb code I included from the original woo file. I’m saying, just in case

Finally, you might want to check out the style modifications done for Twenty Ten child theme using BP template pack https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/

All right.

@BlendNZjnr You’re going to have to change 16 files contained within the 6 BP template folders transferred to your swatch theme folder in server listed here https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#tplfiles

Download the 6 BP template folders (clean ones) to your computer HD.

A. At the very top of all the other template files listed in link above, replace from get_header to div.padder
e.g.
`

Make sure that you have pristine copies of the BP template files i.e. that the files you tried to revise over the last week were replaced with the original BP template files.
– Delete the 6 BP template folders in your reaction theme namely: activity/ blogs/ forums/ groups/ members/ registration/
– Re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility and go through whole process until the end.
– Check the BP component pages again.

Otherwise, site uri?

First: If you have BP 1.5.3.1 activated in a WP 3.3.1 installation, best practice is to only add plugins which are compatible with at least BP 1.5 or WP 3.3. If you install plugins compatible with lower versions of BP, be assured in all probability, you’d get fatal errors somewhere.

If you mean a single ning site (not the whole ning), it could cost you $4000 – $5000 to set up. Could be higher depending on your requirements. That doesn’t include maintenance, upgrade or server costs. Of course, could be cheaper with other devs. You could post at https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/home/ and/or http://jobs.wordpress.net/

Looking at the code you posted, I am 99% positive that you only need to create and add header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your theme folder instead of changing code in 16 files transferred into your reaction theme in server. Let’s give it a try.

Create the header-buddypress.php file. Copy content of your reaction theme’s header.php and post it in header-buddypress.php and add the following at the bottom of that file:
`

`

Save file.

Upload both files to your theme folder in wp-content/themes/reaction/

@AtlantasRealtor I would say backup database as always. Go to the lowest common and successful denominator by changing theme to Twenty Eleven and deactivating all plugins first.
– Given that, when you activate BuddyPress, do you now see the Installation Wizard link under the admin bar?
– If you do not see the the wizard, at this stage change to bp-default theme.
– Do you see the BuddyPress menu at the bottom of all other dashboard menus? If so, go through each one of those panels and configure.

– Yes, it is logical to make sure that your theme and connect plugins are compatible with latest WP and BP versions. However, I recommend not activating Genesis child theme nor Genesis Connect until you have BuddyPress working properly
– Btw, is this a new installation or is this an upgrade from previous WP version?

@helmi how would i go about making sure 3 and 4 are done?

@Marcella You are way ahead of me in code but I am having the same trouble commenting on any posts using the defalut bp theme. just the form submission to the url domain.com/activity/reply/404 error.

@kalengi Whats the best way to start?

I am too after the fresh install

@mercime…after the fresh install i tried what you said…still 404’s everywhere in buddypress theme too.

@mercime…done that multiple times, I am now in the process of removing buddypress and doing a fresh install

Go to dashboard menu Plugins > Installed panel. Deactivate, then delete, then re-install BuddyPress and Activate. Before doing that, go to menu Settings > Permalinks and set to other than default/ugly permalink.

@palmdoc it’s usually the issue with needing to add /index.php/ to your permalink. Check out if the following link will help you https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/iis7-web-config/

@FuriousCigars after changing to bp-default theme, clear cache and run Settings > Permalinks.
