yes you guessed right issues. the fault of the css.

I think it’s in this region css

body {

background: #DADE6E;

font-size: 12px;

font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif;

line-height: 170%;

color: #555;

width: 960px;

margin: 0 auto;

padding-top: 0 !important; /* Remove the top padding space for the admin bar in this theme */

}

You see the line: margin: 0 auto;

Problem it’s just there.

If you still do not fix this. please make a demo I can see.

can this plugin handle photos as well? Or is it going to?

@DJ,

check the post from Jeff:

Once 1.2 is released I’ll make a Dutch tranlation.

You can download BP 1.2 trunk via trac – https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk – click on zip file near bottom of page or svn – https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/

P.S. If you want BP 1.2 stable version, it’s not out yet, but many are developing on trunk – not for production site unless you’re up to it.

Oddly, I think I’m running into the jQuery challenge on Firefox, but no Safari (both on mac). I’m using Links 2.1. Looks great, btw.

np… also, @andy just updated the bp codex way at the bottom. thought you might wanna know

https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Contact a forum moderator On that one.

Skeleton component isn’t updated for 1.2 but shouldn’t be too far out. Grab a copy of the bp compat plugin, and when you get a missing function warning, look in the bp compat to find out what to use instead.

Also, I agree with what Xevo’s said.

Take a look at this.

I really don’t recommend building in a php framework into a existing cms, it could cause a lot of issues.

The simplest way, which might disable some things you don’t want disabled, is to turn off blog tracking in the wp-admin -> buddypress -> component setup.

To just get rid of blog posts in the activity feed, you need to remove some actions. Try this:

remove_action( 'save_post', 'bp_blogs_record_post', 10, 2);

Remember this needs to go in a plugin or in bp-custom.php. There are other blog related activity things too like comments and new blog creations. You can get rid of these with similar syntax – just look through bp-blogs.php and find the lines that say “add_action” and have a record function in quotes.

1. A buddypress theme isn’t so different from a standard wordpress theme, it just has a few extras.

2. Not sure what you mean by this, you have to install bp on wpmu, you can’t install them seperately. Bp is a plugin for wpmu.

3. Once installed bp correctly on wpmu or just wp, you get profiles, activities, groups etc.

Do you really understand what wpmu is? Basically its standard wordpress, but allows you or your users to make multiple blogs on one wordpress install. Buddypress allows you to turn your main blog into a social community, by adding profile and frieding options and the earlier named options.

@osasko, do you use the email login plugin? You can’t get rid of the username entirely, because WordPress is built around it, but you can autogenerate a username and hide the input field on register.php by adding type=”hidden”. It’s an ugly hack…

I just fixed this problem with a hack. My site functioned similar to the site described by Bbrian017

all of the time since requests come to the function bp_core_time_since(). I noticed the line in bp_core.php as follows:

$newer_date = ( !$newer_date ) ? ( strtotime( gmdate( ‘Y-m-d H:i:s’ ) ) + ( 60*60*0 ) ) : $newer_date;

all time since functions on my site operated normally except in site wide activity where all time was plus 7 hours. it was easy to see that I could subtract 7 hours by editing the ( 60*60*0 ) tho be ( 60*60*-7 )

This hack made the activity stream right on but replaced all the other times with the Use GMT Timezone statement. from this, the obvious hack is to copy bp_core_time_since() in its entirety and insert it just below the original the rename both lines in the function that read bp_core_time_since() to bp_core_time_since2(). this way I could keep the time adjustment for the activity stream without causing a failure of the other time since calculations that work correctly. After you have duplicated and renamed the function bp_core_time_since2, all that is left is to change the line in function 2 by your offset, in my case -7 so ( 60*60*-7 ) then change the function reference in

buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-templatetags.php look for line 299

function bp_activity_insert_time_since( $content, $date )

then line 306 and change bp_core_time_since to bp_core_time_since2

the end result is the code works for both after the hack

@katemgilbert:

Didn’t I have explain at your post. Is that not what you meant?

So I was having the problem with this on the single blog version of wordpress but not the multi user version on the same server. Then on the same server I created a brand new install of wordpress and buddypress and got it working there. I eventually found that the upload path that worked had /var/www/vhosts/url/httpdocs/wp-content/uploads but the one that did not work had just wp-content/uploads. once i changed this everything worked.

Well – you could hide it but you’d have to hide a ton of references in html to the underlying framework and it woul dbe nearly impossible to completely pull off, conventions being what they are. If you’re that good, i bet you also can build one helluva theme!

Exactly designodyssey! If someone wanted to find out what you were using, they would find out!

With Firebug, not sure this would work anyhoo.
