Hey @fenixbazaar

Give the guys a shout over at bbPress. They handle forum-related questions.

@dvpl,

please open your own topic if you have an issue. This is an annoucment topic and not intended for support questions.

thank you.

sorry for my dumb questions.
my cover imagens aren’t working 🙁 . i tried update but dont change the image.

let me explain, i’m using a wlms theme and not a buddypress theme
this is what i did, first i try tu edit the files functions and cover-image-header from this folder
/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default
not work this way.

So finally i WIN !! thanks for u ! hahaha
this is the folder u have to edit ( for future questions by another users )
i edit insite the child theme
/public_html/wp-content/themes/wplms_modern functions.php
and
/public_html/wp-content/themes/wplms_modern/members/single member-header.php

Have revisted this interesting query!

Consulted this similar query

and have come up with another possible solution
(so long as the main site has a different theme or child theme to the other sites.)

in functions.php of sub-sites’ themes insert

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'redirect_to_specific_page' );

function redirect_to_specific_page() {

if (is_page('Register') && ! is_user_logged_in() ) {

wp_redirect( 'http://yourmainsite.dev/register/', 301 ); 
  exit;
    }
}

would not work with slug is_page(‘register’}

You can get a profile field value like so:

$child = xprofile_get_field_data( 'child', $user_id );

if ( ! empty( $child ) ) 
    echo $child; 

Getting the $user_id and changing the layout are both questions specific to bbPress and best asked on their forums.

Hi @shaughnessy119

You should ask this same question over at bbPress. Those guys handle forum-related questions 🙂

This can be done by modifying your theme. BuddyPress uses a Template Hierarchy. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask them here 🙂

I don’t use the admin bar on my sites. It actually took me a while to discover that’s where all the BP functionality was.

The best option right now is to do it with some templating:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31812132/buddypress-display-notification-and-profile-in-header-instead-of-wp-admin-bar
That guy’s CSS isn’t the best, I’d suggest working on that.

Create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\groups\create.php

Add a conditional that checks user level at the top.

Or use the do_action hook ( read 2nd answer ) at the top of that file:
do_action( 'bp_before_create_group_page' );
and write a function in your theme/functions.php

Hey wonky1,

I’m looking to do something similar. I’m currently on VB and want to move to something else. Xenforo looks like a likely candidate, but we want to be able to utilize BuddyPress.

May I ask how you’re running user management, registration and access? Is all of that managed by Xenforo, and WP is just pulling/syncing the data? Or the other way around? Waht are you doing for member profile pages? Combine the buddypress and Xenforo pages, or running two separate ones>

And maybe you can share some details on what you’re using for your bridge.

Lots of questions, but answers would be a big help.

Thanks!

Issue is whenever user post a comment

@mjc82in Just so we’re clear, when you say “post a comment”, do you mean post a comment in the comment form of a blog post? If so, that could be an issue with a theme which needs to be updated to be compatible with the latest WP and BP versions.

What theme are you using? Have you tried changing to the Twenty Fifteen theme and check if issue is resolved?

I can give access to my site to one of the moderators or developer if it helps.

We will ask for a throw-away (not admin) account should the need arise. But at this stage, it’s looking to be a theme issue, not a BuddyPress bug. So your problem is not resolved by changing the theme, do provide answers to all the questions in the link I gave you so we can see the overall structure of your installation.

@hnla Hi Hugo, thanks for your feedback.

I’ve updated the Stack Exchange question to better reflect what I’m looking to do. I also updated the answer with a second link to the Buddypress codex for those looking to do less specific Buddypress theming. Additionally, I added a disclaimer saying it is not the recommended method. Without any specific mistakes pointed out that’s about the best I can do for now.

As for removing it, I’m sure it will be put on hold soon enough, seems they don’t like Buddypress (third party plugin) questions over there.

Until then the answer solves my question and I can see it being useful for people looking to heavily customize things, I myself have been referring to it constantly. I would have been ecstatic to have found something like it 3 weeks ago when I began working on a buddypress theme.

Of course, my being a noob means that answer will not be perfect. I will however keep it updated as I learn more and if there’s someone willing to better answer it I’m sure I wouldn’t be the only appreciative one.

Apologies for hijacking this thread, wasn’t sure where better to reply.

@hastig While it is genuinely appreciated that you are trying to help people, some of what you are describing as template files is a little confused and will mislead people into thinking they have to use the advanced taxonomy template hierarchy which isn’t necessarily the case.

I’d urge you check our codex pages again to best understand how overloading files works.

The stackoverflow page would be better removed or at least edited to better reflect how the BP template hierarchy works.
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/214774/is-there-a-list-of-what-buddypress-template-files-go-where-and-what-theyre-to-b

I don’t know which theme you’re using so I can only offer some basic, general css advice.

The numbers are in a table column, each number is in a table cell. In the html the table cell is written as <td>

I’m not sure if you can or will want to remove the numbers column entirely, there may be some buddypress inserted code in there (#id’s, etc) that helps identify each row <tr> for a buddypress function.

What you can do is make that column narrower or possibly hide it from displaying on screen while keeping the (possibly) important code in place.

With Firefox or Chrome right click on a cell and choose ‘inspect element’.

This will show you the html code in that area.

You want to find the cell <td> that wraps around the numbers then identify its class. There may be a couple of different classes in each <td> that buddypress inserts.

To help find which class you want to work with add a background-color: red; to different classes til you find the right one that applies to all cells in the column.

(if you cant find a class that applies to only the numbers column you will need to get into a little more complex css using nth and similar methods)

Once you find the right one open your themes style.css file and place on the bottom of it the class with your new styles.

Try something like ..

.className {visibility: hidden;} to hide it

or

.className {width: 10%;} to adjust it’s width relative to the overall width. (would want to adjust the other columns cell widths to compensate. may also be some other elements within the cell with their own widths set.)

There are numerous ways to target those cells for styling and different things that may prevent the above ideas from working but I’d better leave it at that for now.

@rlfstars So did you build the website yourself? If you did you should sort of be able to retrace some of the steps you took before Buddypress suddenly quit as you have described, can you explain what you mean a little better about Buddypress suddenly quiting? do you mean certain parts of Buddypress stopped working or didn’t work as it was before? or do you mean Buddypress somehow got deactivated? there must of been something that triggered what you are describing for it to happen in the first place, I am just finding it very strange the way you are describing Buddypress as suddenly quiting.

First off, try to ask yourself a few of these questions below and think back:

Did you install any new plugins after you had set Buddypress up and had it working?
Did you by any chance have Buddypress working with your current theme and plugin configuration or was it all working correctly when it was on another theme?
How much memory does your wordpress install have allocated to it?
Did you do a WordPress version update recently? the newer versions of WordPress since 4.0 are known to have broke quite a few older plugins that are outdated or don’t have much support. maybe this could be causing a clash…I dunno?

I know your site is live and you don’t want to mess things up and maybe you are worried about deactivating some of your plugins, but have you yet tried deactivating plugins one at a time and then with each deactivation tried to reactivate Buddypress?

In future it may be better for you to also have some form of testing environment too (preferably a local install), this will allow you to test as many different plugins/theme combinations and tweak things such as combining scripts etc before doing the changes to your live website. (This will ensure everything works how it should and nothing is broken). Also please note, I would not recommend you diving into the combining of JS and CSS files etc on a live site as you can often break things and it can be trial and error to get right depending on what plugins/features you are using (this is also a different issue than what you have, I only mentioned it to give you an heads up on the shear amount that your website loads on a per page basis whilst I was looking at your source).

Other than the above steps it really is hard to help out any more from this end without being able to check it out pal. Like shane said maybe you need to hire someone in to take a look at it all.

You are asking LearnDash questions on a BP support forum.
Please ask LearnDash.

@jblevins1991 Please check through the BP codex documentation we provide a few guides there that set out how BP templating is structured and how to overload the files to a theme or child theme, this is your first port of call for information thereafter if you still have questions not covered in our guides do ask back here.
