It does indeed look fantastic (and with the horizontal nav, very similar to the theme I have been working on! lol)… good to know I’m heading in a good direction (and to get a sense of just how good it can look!).
Keep up the great work Andy.
yes it does… the new site looks much better and navigates much better. nice work
Make sure you hit shift+refresh to clear out the old CSS otherwise you will get design weirdness.
Duh. Thanks — I should be punished for that one; I am always telling my clients and coworkers to do that when they report CSS issues.
Hello!
I’m in the process of setting up alumni networking website for my college using buddypress. To being with, I’ve replicated the signup form from the existing website into the buddypress. So the profile of the members can be retained in our new buddypress powered site.
Problem:
I want to import SQL database into buddypress so that older profiles now appear in buddypress. How can I do that?
.
I look forward to your support!
Now that this site is up and running it seems like a good time to start the discussion on some of the features you think would benefit the developer community site.
I’ll go first –
How about a component that lets developers add desired features they’d like to see in BuddyPress. They could describe the feature in detail and other developers could give feedback and rate the idea. They might also be able to set the status of the feature as “being worked on” or “in discussion stage” or something to that degree.
It could be extended so that groups of developers could join around a feature and list their names off to show they are working on it. It could really promote collaboration around development. That would also let other developers check in on the features’ status, as it would also provide the developers a place to post updates.
What other features do can you think of that would benefit the developer community?

Andy,
I know you’re working on this site, still — but two quick things I noticed right away.
1. The main navigation links are missing the trailing slash (Home, About, Blog, Forums, etc). When you click the links the pages are redirected to the URL with the final slash added.
2. The forum is missing some styles — the header and navigation especially.
Now that the final version will be released soon I actually created a video of our upcoming buddypress site.

Yea nice job on this – looking v.good
Yeah it looks fantastic… Massive improvement. Nice to see buddypress is now running on it’s own software!
looking great! still finding where everything is but otherwise, looking really neat and clean.
Ok..share it with us..please
Andy, the new theme is top notch! Really nice work. I can’t wait to see some member submitted themes showing up on the theme page.
I’ll fix this page up so the design looks nice. For now that page will show you, but it looks a little messy.
Hi all,
Was just wondering … on the last version of the buddypress site I had reference to what I had previously posted on the forums in my profile. I can’t find my posts – can you tell me where to look?
Cheers,
Phil
gpo1 you just need to create a php file and drop it in /mu-plugins instead of putting the code in bp-custom.php. You can use the plugin header below:
/*
Plugin Name: bpRestrict – BuddyPress Plugin
Plugin URI: http://code.ourcommoninterest.org/
Description: Restricts non-logged in users from certain areas

I won’t be releasing the theme at the moment, but what I will be doing is sharing how I built some of the extra features.
can’t wait to hear this response
I like this new buddypress site and new member profile theme, Where can I get this member profile theme?
Looks like something is improperly stripping the lt and gt chars from your forum text. Do you have the bbpress plugin buddypress-enable.php activated in bbpress? It comes with bp and is distributed in the /mu-plugins/bp-forums/bbpress-plugins.
Has something disabled the standard bp filter bp_forums_filter_decode() that lives in bp-forums-filters.php?
Make sure you have activated the buddypress-enable.php bbpress plugin that comes with the bp-forums component.
New BuddyPress looks great cant wait for the release of 2.7.1 version so its officially out! in the mean time I am running an install that works awesome too except that i cant write on the wire or groups, I even updated the latest theme so my function files were up-to-date to correct the old problem, any ideas?
