If you\’re talking about your #nav, then in:

http://gigbuddy.org/wp-content/themes/gigbuddy-home/css/base.css

Line 97

The below will sit it lower and mostly match your sites margins. I think that looks the best to me.

Change your margin to:

margin: 120px 0 15px;

Design wise you will then still have rounded corners to worry about:

http://gigbuddy.org/wp-content/themes/gigbuddy-home/css/base.css

Line 105

Change accordingly:

-moz-border-radius-bottomleft:0;

-moz-border-radius-bottomright:0;

-moz-border-radius-topleft:3px;

-moz-border-radius-topright:3px;

Regarding the width of the nav, Are you saying that you want each one of the links to be a fixed width? To stretch them all across the 900px page width?

if you’ve bpdev plugins installed you can do that without touching the code:

<?php

function register_my_css() {

bpdev_theme_register_style(

‘my-css-hack’,

‘My Css hack’,

‘my_css’,

‘on’,

‘on’

);

}

function my_css() {

?>

#wp-admin-bar ul {

height: auto !important;

}

<?php

}

?>

and save it in a new file under /mu-plugins

So when bp will update that, you can switch this thing off via the WP Admin-> BPDEV Admin -> BPDEV Theme

Possible that something is just being stubborn here.

Member-theme is fine, searching for groups and members is fine, member profiles are fine, but viewing specific groups are not.

According to firebug, Andy is right and your structure.css file is missing.

I would say more mysterious, the optionsbar.php and userbar.php are also missing. This leads me to believe the TEMPLATEPATH variable is also getting the wrong idea as to where it’s at maybe when viewing a group profile?

It’s crazy – I tried to figure that out for hours… no it works. It wasn’t a plugin, but a js-conflict from the theme. Strange is only, that it once worked, and then not anymore.

For me the issue is solved…

Thanks

I’ll post them in good time, they’re a bit down on the list right now.

You can just remove the search login bar from the template – Just remove:

<div id="search-login-bar">

<?php bp_search_form() ?>

<?php bp_login_bar() ?>



<div class="clear"></div>

</div>

From header.php of the home and member themes if you are using both.

I have managed to customize the theme, moved the columns according to my design and even modified few things..

Do let me know the feedback.

You can disable the admin bar completely by putting this in your bp-custom.php:

function my_remove_adminbar(){

remove_action( 'wp_footer', 'bp_core_admin_bar', 8 );

remove_action( 'wp_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );



remove_action( 'admin_footer', 'bp_core_admin_bar' );

remove_action( 'admin_menu', 'bp_core_add_admin_css' );

}

add_action( 'bp_home_theme_functions', 'my_remove_adminbar');

add_action( 'bp_member_theme_functions' , 'my_remove_adminbar');

If you want to leave the gap that the css reserves for the bar then don’t put in the remove_action()’s for the css. You can disable this by commenting out the two lines: add_action(‘bp_home_theme_functions’…) and add_action(‘bp_member_theme_functions’…).

You can selectively disable/enable it for the home theme or the member theme by choosing to disable/enable it with the above technique also.

The member and home theme’s functions.php file triggers those two functions as the last thing that happens in both areas. The hook is designed to allow just such a thing. I’m so glad that Andy is ‘hook happy’.

In that case you can take the code or functions from widget and use them in your theme.

You can see from the group page source that it’s not picking up any of the structure.css files, whereas member profile pages are. I’ve poked around in the files and can’t understand why this might be.

The only stylesheet being used is buddypress-member/style.css

It’s not related to the buddypress-home as I’ve replaced that with the older RC-1 download and the problem exists.

It’s not related to the bp-groups.* files as I’ve replaced those with the older RC-1 download and the problem exists.

I’ve removed all other files from mu-plugins but that doesn’t fix it.

Looking at the page in Firebug, http://learninglab.lincoln.ac.uk/testbp/wp-content/bp-themes/buddypress-member/css/loader.php is being found but doesn’t seem to be loading anything.

Not sure what to try next…!

I just say: WOW! Really nice! I am almost depressed that our site doesn’t look as great as this after all that work… (I thought ours is much nicer than the default buddypress-theme, but this one is another league!).

PS: As far as I got, there are some nice little changes (without plugins I guess) like friends & groups small and clean on the left, etc etc). Cool stuff. Please share, how it’s done

josswinn, looking at your issue now. You just aren’t getting any CSS in the group at all except the member theme CSS. That isn’t even the group home template. Not the same structure at all. Try updating again make sure you update both themes and all the code in /mu-plugins. Overwrite everything.

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.

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 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’m just an ordinary user with no technical knowledge and I got this site started – http://petnetwork.ws . It’s using the standard theme and I guess it just fits the site’s content, I guess.

Hi,

I have installed this and acivated it and looks good on the members pages but on the sites homepage it shows the default wpmu page my site is http://www.ourlordsblogs.com

Well, it’s working for me with custom permalinks.

Would someone having this problem confirm their version of WPMU, BP and whether they are using a subdomain or subfolder install please? You need to be testing this with the default theme without any changes, and without any plugins, widgets or addons that are not part of the base WPMU and BP install.
