Hi,
To get a forum, you need BBPress, not BuddyPress. Each can work separately.

For your issue, follow correctly all install steps, particulary for BP pages and permalinks:

Configure BuddyPress

BuddyPress use WordPress tinymce editor. See WP codex:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_editor
https://codex.wordpress.org/TinyMCE

Was explained somehow:

You can do that by CSS from within your child-theme style.css
As it is not only BuddyPress css, but also dependent of your theme, you have to check for the correct classes and id’s to use.

completed by:
On each BP page is a page-id-{number}. You need it to define the style for this page only.

Sorry, i can’t do more for you. It is to you to learn and understand what is explained. Or to hire a dev if it is too difficult.

7.0 yes – like WP
7.0.x maybe
7.x.x too early to know…

Read here for a solution:

Full Width Profile Pages

Note that it exist other solutions, perhaps more complex or difficult, in function of your experience with theming.

A paid plugin available to import users BuddyPress xprofile fields data.

BuddyPress Members Import

With BuddyPress/bbPress installed you can add a link to your profile with ##profile_link## in the URL input from Links section bellow. Example: ##profile_link##/messages

You can also include the members username next to the My Account avatar with ##member_name## in the Title Attribute field.

For add Create Groups for everyone type in the Title Attribute field
##profile_link##/groups/create/step/group-details/

In case anyone runs into this forum topic looking for a similar fix. I needed to do two more things to get this perfect (thanks @danbp for the great start).

Under each field, the default privacy is displayed, so you need to make sure that for every option you add, the default is either “All Members”, or “Only Me” so that “Everyone” doesn’t appear as a default under each field, despite the fact that you’ve hidden the option to chose it once the user hits the Change button.

Additionally, under the name field, “Everyone” is the default, and it can’t be changed. This isn’t really accurate if you site is private, so I have hidden the line that says that the Name field is visible by Everyone with an additional CSS snippet.

/* Remove Everyone option from Profile Fields to ease confusion on a private site */

li.public {display:none!important;}

1 – get the member types
2 – if $mt == the_allowed_type
3 – show the button

@johanna75 – looks like an interesting plugin – not sure if it’s a free plugin with paid extensions, or a premium plugin altogether – or how it works- you are best off asking those plugin makers more than likely. I see they have 2 premium add on extensions that seem to fit in with what you are asking about though: the geo members directory and the xprofile fields extensioons – which seem to be priced from $29 – $130 each.

again, not sure how any of the plugin is working for you – it kind of sounds like there is some info that has been added to your member’s profiles.. and if it that’s the case – you may have some luck with adding the “bp profile search” plugin – which is free. There some quick docs on how to get it up and running on a page or wdiget with certain features -> http://dontdream.it/

That may be all you need… if not, I would cough up the money for the premium addon and ask the author of the main plugin – sounds like it’ll be faster and easier to get working..

the buddypress forums are likely going to leave you hanging with no answers if you ask about anything like plugins, themes, custom mods that are premium / aka costs money.

I’d love to know if your plugin maker there has a way to turn off the “google maps” part – I mean it sounds nice on the features page – but I’m pretty sure html5 has a geo location feature that can be tapped into without using google maps.. and if I was to use a plugin like that, I would certainly not be sacrificing my user’s privacy by using something that depended on the big G to get their data. Surely there are other ways / other options.

my 2cents.. your situations may be different
