ParticipantI have the same kind of problem with the ‘Members’, ‘Groups’ and ‘Blogs’ page. Its like these pages are not hooked up with the CSS. I only have this problem when using the latest Skeleton member theme thou. If I use the standard bpmember theme there\’s no problem. Why is that? Problems with the latest Skeleton theme on BP 1.0? :>

ParticipantYeah, it may need some further tweaking to grab the right URL.

InactiveIn addition to my CSS file not loading on Member profile pages
– I noticed that the Newest/Active/Popular ajax links aren’t loading either on Members widget on http://www.beerandblog.com/
– My images are uploading (I see them in the blogs.dir), but they aren’t displaying when called by a page.
Could these all be be due to .htaccess issues? Here’s my current .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.*

ParticipantI suppose my question is, can a blog be created to look / inherit the CSS within the Theme your BuddyPress is actually using. When I create or get a user to do create a blog they actually get the standard style.
Hope this is clear…it has been a long day!

ParticipantAndrea_r, this works really well to start off with. Two things I have noticed off the bat. #1) my custom component doesn\’t show up under this theme for some reason. I am on skeleton component v1.1 and not v1.2. Could that be the cause? #2) The links at the top (Blog, Members, Groups, Blogs) don\’t work properly. They are all formatted as username.domain.com/members instead of domain.com/members etc…
For #2, is my beta site messed up? Is it supposed to rewrite those to the proper URL or is that behaving normally? If that is the case, I will need to redo those links, correct?

Keymasterjust remove them in your theme if you don’t like them. Or – you could use the author’s avatar instead.

KeymasterAs per Andy’s comment, http://www.beerandblog.com/wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/css/loader.php is returning 404. Usually if it’s a permission on the file system, you get a different error code sometimes.
Does that file exist in that path when you look in your FTP?

InactivePermissions set to 755, still not loading. Not sure about users and groups. Using an FTP client to change permissions. Logged in with the original account I got from host, which is pSek.com.

Participantwhich user and which groups have permissions ?
permissions should be 755 and the users should be no root

InactiveThanks everyone for the quick replies!
@jeff I looked at the link you sent, but I’m not upgrading so I’m not sure it applies. I just downloaded BuddyPress this morning.
@DJPaul the themes are in wp-content/themes/ and the member theme in wp-content/bp-themes/
@andy the permissions on that file were 644. I changed them all the way to 777 with no change. What should the permissions be?

KeymasterCheck permissions on this file:
http://www.beerandblog.com/wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/css/loader.php
it is returning a 404.

KeymasterYou need to move the home theme to wp-content/themes/ and keep the member theme in wp-content/bp-themes/ (bpmember)

ParticipantJustin-
I assume you’re running BuddyPress v1.0. If so, please carefully read the section entitled “Upgrading the Theme files” on this BuddyPress Codex page.
May 2, 2009 at 6:34 pm #44160Andrea Rennick
ParticipantActually, I just did this on a test bed. Took maybe ten minutes.
make a copy of the home theme and move it somewhere.
rename the folder to something obvious, like bp-blog-theme.
Edit style.css and change the theme name to be Blogs instead of Home.
Delete home.php.
move the new theme back into wp-content/themes/. Activate it under Site Admin -> Themes. Go to a member blog (you have a test blog, right?), under Appearance and activate the new BLOG theme.
Give it a whirl and let me know how you make out. There’s other regular WPMU plugins to enable the theme by default on a new blog. My fave: http://wpmudev.org/project/wpmu-blog-defaults. That way the blog creation part is seamless and looks well-integrated.

InactiveAny clues when more themes will be available? I want to develop my own but it will be much easier to edit someone else’s than start from scratch.
May 2, 2009 at 6:20 pm #44155Jeff Sayre
ParticipantA few questions:
- Are you using the public release of BuddyPress–version 1.0?
- Are you using a custom theme?
- Did you read the section entitled “Upgrading the Theme files” in this BuddyPress Codex link?

ParticipantJeff, I can’t afford a VPS. I have to go with this, but the service is much better than is usual. Think of Elgg, it requres so many things including very new MySql and PHP versons and several other stuff. My HS guys took care of it and installed it themselves for me, though it’s not under the “Script Software’.
As for WPMU, first I tried to install myself allowing all permissions for the database concerned. I had a problem, and asked the help of my HS. They installed it for me. I asked them whether they had to do anything special at their end for the installation. They said NO, just make it 0777 for wp-content and it would work. It did.
In fact, they removed several WPMU folders at my request, but at the time I had not realized that all of them were WPMU folders. I was frantically installing, deleting and re-installing all kkind of CMS and SNW softwares. When I realized it, I posted a note at a WPMU forum. The rest you know.
What happens is when I click a folder, inside I see wp-content, and then a blog folder, it goes on like that until a 2 or 2009, and then I get the error message. I go on changing prmissions as I go along, but at last I reach a point where I am not allowed to change the permission setting. Anyway, I am going to ask my HS what’s the problem involved. I will let you know.
Thnaks for your long conerned reply.

Keymaster@andrea_r: I’m surprised no one has done that yet. Should be quite easy.
May 2, 2009 at 3:58 pm #44124Jeff Sayre
ParticipantAndrea is right.
You can either take the current BP home and member themes and customize them to integrate blogs as you wish, or you can use the BuddyPress Skeleton Template Theme files to build your own blog-centric custom BP themes.
May 2, 2009 at 3:40 pm #44122Andrea Rennick
ParticipantWhy not take a copy of the bp home theme and do the edits to make it a blog theme? Has anyone tried yet?

ParticipantAssuming that you’ve upgraded your site to WPMU 2.7.1 and the newly released BuddyPress v1.0, then carefully read the section entitled “Upgrading the Theme files” in this BuddyPress Codex link.
May 2, 2009 at 2:57 pm #44119In reply to: reducing the width of buddypress theme
Jeff Sayre
ParticipantIs the height parameter a must, or can you leave it like (800, )?
No. You cannot leave the parameter blank. You could pass a variable into the space if you wanted, but it must have something.
When I tried to remove one WPMU folder I got the error message
“500 Can’t Remove Directory. Permission denied”.
A few questions:
- Have you checked the files / folder permission on your WPMU install? You should be able to delete everything that you personally upload to your public_html. Although, with shard hosting, there could be issues with apache owning certain files and folders.
- Are you using an automatic WordPress Mu install option from your hosting company? I’m not sure if any hosting companies offer that option for WPMU, but it’s worth asking.
The answer I got was WPMU does something at the Apache level and that I can’t do much about it unless mine is a dedicated hosting service.
- Have you contacted tech support for your hosting service provider and asked for their help? This WPMU forum post may prove useful in talking with tech support: https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=3173&replies=3#post-19388
- Have you considered changing hosting companies or upgrading to a more robust hosting plan? A VPS perhaps?
WPMU really does not do too well on a cheap hosting plan. Here is sage advice from andrea_r, a WPMU guru: http://wpmututorials.com/news/choosing-a-host/
I have a new installation now.
I think the width problem is to be fixed elsewhere.
Please consider these:
As far as figuring out what’s going on with your CSS, this is where the Firebug tool comes in very handy! It takes awhile to learn how to use it. But once you do, you can determine where a given div or class is pulling its instructions from and then temporarily override those selector parameters within Firebug and see how that affects the overall layout. It is a very powerful and useful tool!
Concerning CSS issues with IE6: my personal opinion is to not worry about supporting that browser anymore. It is just a big pain and too much work for too little return–less than 20% usage ( http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp ). Again, that is just my opinion.
