Thanks for getting on this, and for Mercime testing the repo themes
It’s part of the new BuddyPress 1.5 default theme, which you can download via our news blog (“blog” in the main menu). Be aware the software is in beta testing at the moment.
wish there was an answer to this…
@johnjamesjacoby
We’ve modified our BuddyPress test install with your patch and deployed it to our testers. There could be up to a 24 hour delay before they cut over to it though.
Thanks!

The Buddypress Template Pack can insert the Buddypress CSS and JS in your theme. That’s likely the step you are missing.
well, I don’t know what part of the file to change. I loaded the compatibility plugin templates, loaded the BP Sidebar plugin, even got the theme tag-ged buddypress to get rid of the message.
when I open up the widgets I see the Buddypress sidebar widgetized areas, but no matter what I place in there I can’t get them to show.
I guess I need to learn how to “make note of the HTML template structure of the file, specifically the
tags that surround the content and sidebar.”
will someone hold my hand through that process please?

I don’t recall now where I found it. If anyone knows how to fix for 1.5 that would be nice.
something where if a user has created blogs, this will get their primary blog URL?
Doing a test run for child theming and couldn’t figure out why some style rules displayed and others didn’t until I realized that BP Default is loaded after the child theme instead of before. Anybody else getting this or did I just botch my install?

@boonebgorges NO worries, I’ve just updated it.
@johnjamesjacoby We can probably do that for you 
Over at the codex there is a list for themes that are either working, have known issues or unconfirmed for BuddyPress 1.5.
http://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-theme-compatibility/
I’m starting this thread to get the ball rolling a bit to update the status of each as it gets passed. @mercime has done an amazing job testing all repo themes and currently I think I’m right in saying do not pass.
However, there are many themes outside the repo both free and paid that we can get on the list so everyone knows if the theme they use is updated.
So… if you know of a theme that has an issue or know of one that is updated just respond in this thread and lets get that list growing Spread the word, lets get theme designers on board and ahead of the game and encourage updates and list issues we find.
I’ve just done a mass update off the back of @foxly ‘s cracking list will add in links tomorrow but anything anyone thinks should be added or issues just add to this thread. Keep em coming
@travel-junkie Cheers for the explanation Boris!
You know my site better than anyone, so it’s something I would love to do when it becomes integrated with BP further down the line.
I just love how much simpler it looks on testbp.org
I guess the new plugin of bbpress2.0, will change all existing groups into forums when it transfers everything over and these are displaed on one page, integrated with the forum directory?
Groups and forums are fine for those used to BP, but I find people who are less savvy just aren’t getting it that easily on my site. Having them displayed as they are as ‘forums’ on testbp.org alongside the forum directory, makes it so much more intuitive!
If anyone knows how the upgrade process will work down the line when bbpress 2.0 is officially part of BP that would be great to know!
@Pisanojm: Oh sorry about that updated now
@foxly: It’s on the happy list now I sent you an email thank you that rocks would love to get access and get the codex reflecting it. *High 5 for doing that job really rocks seeing community all working together.
@mercime, am using a child theme, my web is : http://www.suchworld.com/.
testing login:
username:demo, pass : demo
@foxly – Any chance you kind folks can test the plugins with menu issues against this patch?
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/3454/3454.patch
I’ve just released 0.5 of BP Group Management, which is fully 1.5 compatible (it already was, btw, but I cleaned up some PHP warnings and other small issues )
Hi everyone. Long story short, I had to uninstall WordPress and Buddypress. After re-installing WordPress, I created a dummy account, and recieved the confirmation email. (see below)

Once i got this reply, I’m thinking, “Great! Things are looking good!” Then I install Buddypress. I try to create a new user/dummy account. I check the email account the reply was supposed to be sent to. No email. Spam box…no email. Now, in my Dashboard/User section, it shows the new user. However, i can’t sign in using the account.
Any ideas? Thank you very much inadvance!

@naijaping what theme are you using and how are nav items generated in your theme? If you’re using child theme of bp-default, there are CSS classes automatically which you can target for styling currently selected items.
For BP 1.2.9 there’s .selected and .current_page_item classes
`ul#nav li.selected a, ul#nav li.current_page_item a {
background: #f5f5f5;
color: #555;
}`
For upcoming BP 1.5 bp-default using wp_nav_menu, there’s .selected, .current-menu-item, .current_page_item, and even current_page_ancestor
`#nav li.selected a,
#nav > li.current-menu-item a,
#nav > li.current_page_item a,
#nav > li.current_page_ancestor a {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #F5F5F5;
color: #4D4D4D;
}`
The BuddyPress skeleton component plugin is a base example o how to create new tabs/pages for users.
it will create a slug like /member/user/example
