Try and change
id=”container” in a bp file
to
id=”primary”
You basically have to match up the container and content divs to match your theme files or BuddyPress is like a house without walls.
Yes! Boone you are indeed a genius. Thanks for the fix, as I was having a similar problem.
I tried WordPress Google Transliteration plugins but they break my links and don’t work on Forums.
How can I retrieve the URL to a user or group’s avatar/gravatar *without* the `IMG` HTML tag? For our site layout we’re looking to use the avatar as a background image of a DIV – so we need just the URL, none of the `IMG` stuff. For instance, I’m using the `bp_group_avatar` function to return an `IMG` tag and using a regex to match the `SRC` attribute – but this is ugly and hackish. Is there a better way?
Using Buddypress 1.2.4.1
**Edit**
Looking at the `bp_core_fetch_avatar` – I’m seeing hard-coded `IMG` tag – so I’m thinking no, this isn’t possible 
Thanks but no this is the same info right after you install the template pack.
in case anyone’s interested, here’s the exact code that worked for me on wp multi site 3.0.1 and bp 1.2.6, sub blogs on sub domains (thanks to @foralien).
add this to a bp-custom.php file and place the file in /wp-content/plugins/ (if you already have a bp-custom file, then add the code to the same one between the php start/end)
worked like a charm. been searching for answer to this for several days! finally.
`
function nfm_bp_avtar_upload_path_correct($path){
if ( bp_core_is_multisite() ){
$path = ABSPATH . get_blog_option( BP_ROOT_BLOG,
‘upload_path’ );
}
return $path;
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_avatar_upload_path’,
‘nfm_bp_avtar_upload_path_correct’, 1);
function nfm_bp_avatar_upload_url_correct($url){
if ( bp_core_is_multisite() ){
$url = get_blog_option( BP_ROOT_BLOG, ‘siteurl’ ) .
“/wp-content/uploads/”;
}
return $url;
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_avatar_url’, ‘nfm_bp_avatar_upload_url_correct’,
1);
`
Sorry to jump in on this older thread but I just wanted to know if there was an easy way to get this filtering of table names to work to allow me to create a separate instance of buddypress on a wordpress multisite?
I am using the multi-network plugin to create networks and all that is working fine but each time I activate the buddypress plugin on a network it uses the same database as the all of the other networks and therefore it is the same as the normal wordpress multisite setup.
As a workaround I changed the code in bp_core_get_table_prefix() in bp-core.php to append the id of the network. That works fine and creates a new set of tables but obviously not ideal.
Thanks
@tubruk – You can define multiple forum ids by separating the IDs by comma.
eg.

I just tested this and it works great!
For the life of me I can not find exactly what it is I have to copy from page.php to the buddypress skin.
At the end of the installation it says to:
“[HEADER]
[FOOTER]
“
This is the code inside my /activity/index.php :
`
- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=””><?php printf( __( 'My Favorites (%s)’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_total_favorite_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) ?>
- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=”RSS Feed”>
-
`
This is my page.php as the instructions with the buddypress theme compatibility package says to use.
`
<div id=”post-“>
ID ) ): ?>
‘
‘.__(‘Pages:’, ‘framework’).’ ‘, ‘after’ => ‘
‘, ‘next_or_number’ => ‘number’)); ?>
`
Please if some one with CSS experience and BuddyPress themes can take a few minutes and show me what code I need to copy from my page.php and change in the index.php this would be awsome as then I can use that to make the changes in the rest of the files.

Hi
I’m pretty new to wordpress & am very new to buddypress. I’ve installed both & created a basic child theme of the standard layout.
The only problem is thar the page & sidebar contents run off the right hand side of the page. Im not sure what I need to tweak to stop this from happening.
Any .CSS wonderboy or wondergirl asistance would be helpful?
The site is http://www.babbleyak.com.
Thanks

Ok, got it.
I have to use another ajaxurl than the one defined in BuddyPress :
`function totd_wp_head() {
//ajax url is defined in BP but not in WP
if (!defined( ‘BP_VERSION’ )) {
?>
<!–
var ajaxurl = “/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php”;
//–>
<?php
}
}
add_action(‘wp_print_styles’,’totd_wp_styles’);`
Hey, does anyone know how WP & BP do handle ajax functions ?
My ajax functions hooked on ‘wp_ajax_…’ are not fired when I disable BuddyPress.
I get no JS errors.
Here’s an example of a JS & PHP function : http://pastie.org/1290385
Thanks a lot !
That’s not possible with BuddyPress at this time. See this: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/faqs/
In fact, I don’t see this ever being an option in BP–even when the new bbPress plugin becomes available. Both BP and the upcoming plugin version of bbP are software layers that sit on top of WordPress. So each is responsible for their own sets of data access functions. Even with BP Group-based forums, the bbP functions are being hijacked to work within BP but only barely.
To have a standalone install of bbPress functioning in WordPress (which is what would give you a site-wide forum) requires a process called deep integration. For more information on integrating bbPress with WordPress, search the WP or bbP forums. Or better yet, just wait until the pluginitized version of bbPress is available!

Yup, that’s possible. On the settings page there’s a google map where you can set a marker to the default location. It’s also possible to set the zoom and map type.
Postcodes aren’t required. Anything the user writes in the location field gets passed to Google and the closest location gets returned. So the more details, the more accurate the result will be. You could only write “Uzbekistan” and the location of that user will be right in the middle of it.
I know that this topic is old… but I just watched that video again… its a great design! Does anyone would like to make a theme for buddypress in this style out of it?
Or does anyone know how to get round corners on the images and avatars?

Sorry – just to clarify, I was getting the Zend_Session_Exception error as first flagged by @gregfielding
Hello,
I’m helping to develop a theme for buddypress and are faced with a problem involving plugins.
For the plugins that use the templates to the theme itself there is no problem, but for those who use their own templates we already identified a problem involving the code that generates the sidebar. (The number and position of the sidebars is determined within the theme settings, files that generate the pages have a specific code that pulls this information and adjusts the body of the site).
I saw that when the template of the plugin is in the theme file, it overwrites the template present in the plugin folder, so we think of pre-integrate the commonly used plugins for buddypress.
I would like a list of plugins that people usually use and it generates its own pages (like album or bp-jet-event).
