BuddyPress.org

I did this thinking that it would work like a child theme, but nothing seems to change… so I am assuming this is just for “storage”… ?

wp-content/languages/buddypress.pot

I’ve made a couple of changes in the language file but don’t see them on the site. No caching used.

Create a child theme of bp-default theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Copy over sidebar.php from bp-default theme into your child theme’s folder https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.1/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php
Remove lines 29 to 58

Pagination on Members Directory is working for me.

The problem that I see is that your left sidebar dropped down to below content and comments div in your BP pages. Make sure you follow the instructions in Step 3 of the BP Template Pack compatibility process.

@namzar – screenshot of the problem or better yet, URL to specific page would be welcome.

Same problem here. I temporarily solved by using remove_all_filters('upload_dir'); in my theme. I hope for a better solution in the next buddypress core update.

hi @mercime,

i am using the same theme as misterbdon (instyle theme) and followed your instructions. almost there, but buddypress is extending past the theme’s sidebar on the right side of the page still. why? can u explain more “The Sample Page made it all clear. I have revised all codes added to the bottom of header-buddypress.php and at the top and bottom of sidebar-buddypress.php in this post. ” u posted? really appreciate you help!

Just as a sanity check you’ve set to use forums and you’ve gone through their set up process?

Perhaps resaving your permlinks ‘could’ also help? I’m thinking maybe you have a plugin or something that is also interfering but take it you’ve tried using the default BuddyPress theme and / or removing plugins to see?

What would help would be to see a link to your site, is that possible?

You say there are a ‘few explanations’ I assume you mean error messages? If that is right can you paste them here to see what you are getting?

It’s meant to show a page with your forum topics and your forum replies on. Are you using a custom theme, or BP Default?

edit – missing slash was only obscured in code. htaccess looks fine. deactivate s2member plugin and change to default theme, then run settings > Permalinks.

@richardpd
– What version of BP were you trying to activate in your installation? If you installed/upgraded to BP 1.5.1, did you go through the “Installation Wizard”
– How did you make your WP theme BP-compatible – via BP Template Pack plugin or other method?
– Are you on single WP or WP Multisite?
– I see that you have your Group Forums on as well http://richard-dickinson.com/forums/
– For the Sitewide Forums, did you add new forum in wp-admin > Forums > New Forum at least once?

*Something* must have been changed. If you did not add, delete, modify, change or tweak the website’s files plugins, or theme(s), try contacting your web host to ask if the server crashed overnight, or similar

It’s simple enough to set up a separate install on a live host, you just can’t put both in the root directory, right?
I personally like doing all my initial install, configuration, development and testing using a local install, but before I go live I also like to try it out in the production server environment.

You can only use one version of WP/BP in multisite. If you do not want to use the theme switcher plugin or another plugin like so, you’d have to set up different installs like in XAMP and MAMP, etc.

hmmm… I think I might consider a completely separate install under a sub domain or separate path so I could also experiment with a completely different set of plugins, wordpress versions (like 3.3 beta), as well as themes. I am not familiar with MU to know if you can have such independence, for example, having two versions of buddypress installed at the same time.

Allows admin to use a development theme on live site

Did you keep the same folder structure? e.g. /wp-content/themes/zeebusiness/members/single/member-header.php?

Please clarify what you mean. What theme are you using? What does your theme’s home.php file have to do with the 3 columns set up you want to activity pages but not the profile page?

Cool. Glad it worked out for you.

If you can access wp-admin, change theme to Twenty Ten. If you cannot access wp-admin, rename the theme folder of parallelus-salutation to e.g. parallelus-salutation-xx via FTP/cpanel, etc.
