@cleaus there’s `get_template_part(‘content’, ‘page’ ) ;` in your page.php file which means I need the code to content-page.php file as well

@dcavins Hey did you get a solution? I have exactly the same problem on a Linux server (RedHat).
Latest wordpress and buddypress versions, default theme… Looked all over the internet…

Basically, you will no longer need to install the BP Template Pack plugin to make your WP theme compatible with BuddyPress as this new feature serves as a fallback for any WP theme which does not have BuddyPress templates in it. The feature is the same way bbPress plugin templates are served up in WP themes.

Hello, I have the same problem, and I am using the default theme for buddypress, any ideas on how to fix this issue?

You need to install/activate BP Template Pack plugin to make your WP theme compatible with BuddyPress.

Could very well be that your theme has not been updated. Have you changed to bp-default theme to see if issue is corrected?

Give some more information — Which theme are you using? What url does it give in the email? Which url are you being redirected to (and what does the title bar say)?

It’s either a theme conflict or more likely a plugin conflict (a membership plugin probably) because restricting group creation to admins only is working in all default installations using bp-default theme and updated plugins.

B. CREATE a NEW BLANK FILE named sidebar-buddypress.php

Open up the blank sidebar-buddypress.php file and add the following within:
`

jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});

`

Save file.

C. Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your theme folder in server wp-content/themes/strings/ in the same directory where your regular header.php and sidebar.php files are

D. Copy the style modifications for some BP elements https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ and paste those at the bottom of your theme’s stylesheet, then adjust to taste.

Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you will only need to create two new files, header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to make the BP templates compatible with your theme.

If you’ve revised any of the BP template files transferred to your strings theme folder in server during the BP Compatibility process, please delete those 6 BP folders transferred to your theme folder in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /members, /groups, /register – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility again to make sure that you have clean template files.

A. COPY your theme’s header.php and Save As > header-buddypress.php

Open up header-buddypress.php and at the BOTTOM of the file, below other code contained within, add:
`

@jaymeselman based on the HTML structure of your theme, you only need to create two files, header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php

Having said that, you have two options. either
a) all pages full-width
b) all pages with sidebar

(a) or (b)?

@cleaus there’s not a single code in your pastebin.com’s links for index.php, page.php, sidebar.php and footer.php

I did ask you if you wanted option (a) or (b) above so we can do this already Which is it?

@tomelk31 looks like the easiest option is available where you only need to adjust the style instead of revising 16 BP template files by adding the following to your stylesheet:

`#content .padder {
float: left;
margin-top: 20px;
width: 600px;
}`
then copy over the style modifications for some BP elements https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ and paste those at the bottom of your theme’s stylesheet after the `#content .padder` above, then adjust to taste.
