BuddyPress.org

I recommend the Post Haste WP plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/posthaste/ to replicate some of the functionality of P2, but having the advantage of theme portability.

It took me weeks to find it, but I think it’s pretty great.

or if u wanna put it on theme => <a href="/wp-login.php?action=logout">Log Out</a>

@Burst Adsit: in my WP 2.71, why my Dashboard > Site Admin > Buddy Press, doesnt exist? it say => No input file specified.

thank you

I’d argue that if you had things you wanted to put into a bp-custom.php file, then creating the new files would not prove a problem.

You aren’t going to get much, if any, response without bp version info, what theme you are using and a link to your site.

Hey all,

I posted briefly earlier, but I’ve now got something a bit more worthwhile to show you all

It’s a heavily modified version of a BuddyDress theme.

The Game Studies Network is a project from the University of Wyoming focusing on bringing together academics, students, researchers, and developers in the areas of new media and interactive media. We’re hoping to become something of a new media think tank.

Take a look and let me know what you think

Thanks everyone!

Make sure you have the bpmember theme in the proper place: /wp-content/bp-themes/

Then, make sure you have it selected in WPMU’s backend by navigating to the BuddyPress menu grouping like this:

BuddyPress > General Settings > Select theme to use for BuddyPress generated pages

Choose the “BuddyPress Default Member Theme”.

I took a look at my .htaccess file which currently has the

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

Command to force the server to use php5. When I add the text from the htaccess.dist

Also, concerning the .htaccess file. It will automatically be created for you during the WPMU install. So, if you went to it and did not see anything, then something went wrong with the install. Why did you have to add the text from htaccess.dist to your .htaccess file?

Hey yairnazz,

Add this to your /bp-themes/bpmember/style.css

body {background:#fff;}

If you do not see a change, try this:

body {background:#fff !important;}

1. To change “socialnetwork” on home page

Go to -> wp-content -> themes -> bphome -> images -> logo.gif

Replace logo.gif

2. To change “socialnetwork” on members page

Go to -> wp-content -> bp-themes -> bpmember -> images -> logo.gif

Replace logo.gif

One way of doing this is to create a new textarea profile field entitled “Signature” and call it within each BP component you want to use it in.

I know one of the BP mods, John James Jacoby, does this for one of his BP sites, specifically the bbPress forums (eg. a forum thread – http://delsolownersclub.com/discussions/topic/what-will-your-next-mugen-part-be), but I believe he only uses it for the bbPress forums and nowhere else across that BP site.

However, I don’t think it would be *too* hard to call it within the group forums and the wire (I say *too* hard with a little skeptism! hehe). You just would need to edit your BP theme in a number of places to do so.

If you want something like mine: http://sunysb.net/members/davidmazza/profile

I think I just edited the profile loop and a lot of css in the member theme. All of that will be in the member theme. But I started with the skeleton, which I actually had to strip down even more, and then build it up a bit.

I had this problem too… did everything right per the instructions — but I solved it! I was upgrading from a version (1.0b1) where the structure was mainly in the mu-plugins folder. After upgrading database must have still pointed to that location, and so after I deleted the buddypress files in mu-plugins, it gave me the error message.

All I did to solve it was go to Buddypress -> General Settings and selected the skeleton BP theme, saved settings, then selected the default BP theme, saved settings. I assume that fixed the entry in the database.

There’re many topics on this, try search again.

Here’s the document about member theme.

https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/using-the-buddypress-themes/

You basically need to look at bp-themes/bpmember/

Did what the Creator said, worked charmly on my bbP theme.

It’s all kinda hazy as to what the solution was in the middle of the WTF event. Upgrading to the current ver of bp’s themes and clearing everything out worked. I’d bet money on Andy though.

I’m almost positive this is a bug in FF3.5 and it’s understanding of shorthad “font” declarations.

This is fixed in the latest default themes in 1.0.2.

This is what you need to do:

Find the “html {” declaration in the CSS files, and look for the “font:” part. Delete it and replace it with this:

font-size: 11px;

font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;

Then find the “body {” declaration, and replace the “font” part with:

font-size: 12px;

Do the same in both your WordPress and BuddyPress theme.

I don’t know what to tell you then. I upgraded my themes also to the trunk version of the themes because I’m running trunk bp.

Best way to do this would be to integrate the P2 theme into your user blogs.

Ahh yes! Totally forgot about the P2 theme, John!

https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/p2

I forget if P2 puts a character limit on post entries like Twitter.

Also I did some digging just now and the WPMU plugin that John and I are talking about is the “Menus” plugin by dsader:

http://wpmudev.org/project/Menus

Just read over your post again and you say you want to eliminate the entire backend? Off the top of my head, I don’t know if that’s possible.

Best way to do this would be to integrate the P2 theme into your user blogs.

Otherwise, I know there is a WPMU plugin out there to help limit the admin side bar’s available links. If you manually navigate to the page you can still get to them, but it hides the options from view.

What’s actually interesting is I believe there was an image posted a few weeks back showing that something like this blog idea was part of the first mock-ups for BP.

I spent some time creating a theme for blogs that would look like the rest of my site, to at least give the appearance of a closely integrated blog if not the actual function of one.
