BuddyPress.org

Which theme are you using?

If you are working with bp-default and want to create any amends (such as adding functions in functions.php), you will be best to create a new theme (probably a child one). If you look in the menu tab called Codex on this site, you’ll find documentation on how to do this.

Where is the functions php file? The BP theme I’m using is not in themes.

Thanks.

Usually plugins only remove settings on deletion. Not deactivation. The theme you choose has no affect. Did you delete and re install BP mobile?

They will not work together. They both override the theme when viewing on mobile. WP Touch does not have the template files for viewing BP content. BP Mobile shows any page you want you just need to add the pages to your mobile menu in the WordPress admin.

Javascript conflict with another plugin or theme. I’ll post an update.

Delete and re install the current version. I added a no conflict to the javascript that should fix. If not then something else is the issue and you should deactivate all plugins but BuddyPress and mobile and test the other plugins 1 x 1.

BuddyPress doesn’t talk to Google Maps. It’s to do with a plugin you’re running, or possibly a custom theme. Work through your plugins and find out which talks to Google Maps’ API, and then contact the plugin’s author for support.

Did you change the filter in your themes activity.php?
Example:
`’
If so then after a page refresh they will only see they’re friends activity and not their own.

Hey Mike, you posted this a while ago, but hopefully this helps you or someone else who may be looking for this. Where you want to display the like button anywhere in your theme, put:

Exel,
Thank you! I thought I was the only one. It must be a theme issue, because the problems I’m having are identical and I’m also using Elbee Elgee.

Thanks for posting. If you hear of a solution please post it here!

Speaking as a dabbler (not a PHP coder) who’s been poking around with Drupal Commons and BuddyPress a while:

Drupal Commons Pros —
One very nicely designed feature set
Very close to being ready out-of-the-box
Well-suited for professional or corporate use
Blog well-integrated with other features

Drupal Commons Cons (compared with BP) —
Somewhat configurable, but within a relatively narrow range
Small number of themes
Themes difficult to customize after a point
Not ideal for non-business users; neither warm nor fuzzy
Blog has very few features
Getting plugins for additional features to work is often more challenging
Drupal community, while very friendly, doesn’t address the non-technical user as readily as the WP/BP community; they’re not quite, but almost, exclusive to developers. In fairness, they’re very helpful to beginning developers.

Hope this helps.

Useful information.
I’m using the BP-default theme. I’ll have a play around and then most likely use the plugin.
Many thanks @modemlooper

What other plugins are you using? Do you see any other errors or broken functionality on your website? Finally, if you switch to the BPDefault theme, are you still unable to upload images?

== ok, I managed to fix it, so proud of myself ==

@kooba and you should be proud of yourself for doing a good job

== maybe suggest some changes, i’d appreciate it…. I’m sure You could make it even nicer ==

Flattery will get you everywhere Kidding aside, you should copy over the style changes I mentioned in (D) above to fix the alignment of the other elements as well as remove the list background in the BP template files.

Is your theme a custom them or BP-default? If its BP-default you have to force a width. Fluid widths without responsive layout are a small screen nightmare. Have you considered another responsive theme or BP mobile plugin?
