BuddyPress.org

Thanks mercime,
I did try that but the cropping tool snaps back each time I try to extend it. But I will try making my images bigger again and provide some white space around them to see if that helps.

Yes, I got it to work too! Thanks @r-a-y !

I have activated the BP Twenty Eleven child theme so I now see content in BP pages with a parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<' in C:xampphtdocswpresswp-contentthemesBP Twenty Elevensidebar-buddypress.php on line 9 – which is where I put the additional code suggested ()
It is inside the <?php immediately below the descriptive comment and above the line
$options = twentyeleven_get_theme_options ();

Have I put it in the wrong place?

This parse error appears on all BP pages but not the original theme pages.

My dashboard is still telling me I have activated the BuddyPress Template Pack, but not completed the setup process.

Sorry for my ignorance
.

I try not to edit the functions file unless absolutely necessary.

The plugins I am using are absolutely necessary for the site to function, so turning them off or deleting them is not an option. BuddyPress will get deleted before any of the others do!

Not sure what you mean by “I assume you are using a plugin”? Yes, I’m using BuddyPress?
I’m working on adding your snippet to the entry.php page. Still need the edit bit for fixing typos. So far it hasn’t worked … but I could be putting it in the wrong places. Also my activity stream just blew up – which has nothing to do with adding the snippet, and I’ll write it up as a separate report.

Thanks r-a-y!!

I’m so not advanced with this, so please forgive me, but is there a tutorial on how best to update your Buddypress files? What I’ve done has been update only individual files as they’ve given me trouble, so I don’t have to completely rebuild my theme with the updates. I’m sure this is not the way to do it.

Thanks for the reply karmatosed!

could not edit the prev post.
The code for the highlight is i think in bp-members-template.php on line 704

function bp_get_loggedin_user_nav() {
global $bp;

// Loop through each navigation item
foreach( (array) $bp->bp_nav as $nav_item ) {
// If the current component matches the nav item id, then add a highlight CSS class.
if ( !bp_is_directory() && $bp->active_components[$bp->current_component] == $nav_item )
$selected = ' class="current selected"';
else
$selected = '';

/* If we are viewing another person (current_userid does not equal loggedin_user->id)
then check to see if the two users are friends. if they are, add a highlight CSS class
to the friends nav item if it exists. */
if ( !bp_is_my_profile() && $bp->displayed_user->id ) {
$selected = '';

if ( bp_is_active( 'friends' ) ) {
if ( $nav_item == $bp->friends->id ) {
if ( friends_check_friendship( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->displayed_user->id ) )
$selected = ' class="current selected"';
}
}
}

// echo out the final list item
echo apply_filters_ref_array( 'bp_get_loggedin_user_nav_' . $nav_item, array( '<li id="li-nav-' . $nav_item . '"><div class="menu-img-' . $nav_item . '"><a id="my-' . $nav_item . '" href="' . $nav_item . '">' . $nav_item . '</a></div></li>', &$nav_item ) );
}

// Always add a log out list item to the end of the navigation
$logout_link = '<li><div class="menu-img-logout"><a id="wp-logout" href="' .  wp_logout_url( bp_get_root_domain() ) . '">' . __( 'Log Out', 'buddypress' ) . '</a></div></li>';

echo apply_filters( 'bp_logout_nav_link', $logout_link );
}

The strange thing is… the only highlight i get on the sidebar is, if i view a friends profile. so the part on line 715 works, but not the rest!

I have added the header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php files as suggested. When I checked the Appearance it gave me a broken theme message which I fixed by correctly renaming the ‘twentyeleven’ theme directory in style.css so I now have Twenty Eleven still installed but I guess I may need to Activate BP Twenty Eleven child theme now?

i found the answer….. disable easy album plugin and it should work.
