BuddyPress.org

hi….

I’m using buddypress 1.2.6
the above specified files r not working form me…
is there any settings i have to change to work it…
Could you help me…

Thanlkz in advance..

I’m so confused at this point, as to why it works the way it does.

I was so happy to find buddypress but not being able to create default support forums is nuts. I don’t quite know what to do now.

===== TO SUPPORT WP 3 MENUS FOR BP 1.2.8 =====

1. Create a child theme of bp-default https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

2. Create a functions.php file in your child theme and add this:

`<?php

/* https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_theme_support#Navigation_Menus */

add_action( ‘init’, ‘register_my_menus’ );

function register_my_menus() {
register_nav_menus(
array(
‘primary-menu’ => __( ‘Primary Menu’ )
)
);
}

/* Removes ul class from wp_nav_menu */

function remove_ul ( $menu ){
return preg_replace( array( ‘#^

]*>#’, ‘#

$#’ ), ”, $menu );
}
add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu’, ‘remove_ul’ );

?>`

3. Copy over header.php from bp-default theme and paste into child theme folder.

4. Replace line “ or the whole navigation block with code below:

`
false, ‘menu_class’ => ‘menu’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘display_home’ ) ); ?>

`

Adjust according to taste

@B1gft — This link might help to create a multi installation wordpress with a single login:

But I’m not sure that there is hosting that does not support WordPress multisite. Even free hosting I have ever tried allow WordPress multisite. But it can not use subdomains, because it does not provide wildcard subdomains features.

You’ll need to be a little more specific about your set up and how you’re attempting this. What themes approach are you taking, are you using a custom theme, child theme of bp-default.

In theory you should be able to simply adjust the body font-size but a series of fixed px units throughout the layout make this harder to accomplish so you may have to target specific elements within the activities page.

The best and proper approach if you are using the bp-default theme is to create a simple child theme in which you simply have a style.css and in that you keep any custom styles.

Guides on creating a child theme: https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

You’ll then need to identify the element you want to increase the size on. Depending on what elements you do actually want to increase you might simply be able to adjust the body font-size which is set to 12px but that will only change those elements that haven’t been explicitly set to a fixed size.

It’s in bp-default/_inc/css/default.css where body has font-size of 12px.
To change, recommend you create a child theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/ and make the change there

It sounds as if you are running two separate WordPress installs. If you are, get rid of one of them and use multisite. There are ways to share the users table between installs (like on here), but I would suggest multisite is easier to achieve.

Do post your .htaccess file here – something might have gotten messed up there.

Buddypress doesn’t connect to the database, WordPress does.
BP is a plugin and will use the same db as WP, but if WP can’t connect, BP won’t work either.

@i_banks

In your wp-config.php file (root of your site), you’ll see the following lines:

`// ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘your-db-name-here’);

/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘your-db-username-here’);

/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘your-db-password-here’);`

Insert your connection info in the appropriate places, save and reupload.

You need to be more specific on what you are trying to do, I can’t understand what you are saying.

Just creating new profile page category from my understanding??? Just to go your buddypress admin page under profile setup and create new fields there, no need to hook anything.

P.S, why on your activity page is the header content below the avatar? Go into your theme’s CSS file and remove

`div#item-header div#item-header-content {
float:left;
}`

To clear things up, it should look a-lot nicer.
