Do you have all the necessary files in your theme folder?
..YOUR-THEME-FOLDERmembers
(Contains files for the members directory)
..YOUR-THEME-FOLDERmemberssingle
(Contains files for the member profile page)
Without these files, member related pages won’t work correctly.
It’s good etiquette to wait a couple of days before bumping your own threads. I am not 100% if the template pack is up to date. First thing you could do is to try manually copying the BuddyPress-specific templates from BP-Default into (and overwriting) your theme.
@sbruner would it be possible to replace the search in the header with google search function? as of right now i can only add google search as a sidebar widget.
It’s a little hard to diagnose without a link as could be a few things but let’s see about some common ones first.
– have you changed your perm links at all?
– are you using a plugin that has changed them / what happens when you remove all plugins aside from BuddyPress? Does it work then?
– does the members page actually exist?
If none of those apply a link and if that’s not possible more information like version, theme and plugins would help drill down to the problem.

You’re right, it won’t work ‘cuz there are typos in the code… sorry, my bad 
Find this in members-loop.php (around line 30)
`
`
…and replace with this:
`
<a href="”>
<a class="button" href="”>View Profile
–
`
Then add this to your child-theme’s style.css
`#members-list .item-title a.button {float:right;}`
I just tested it and it works fine. Remember to respect the file structure in your child-theme: members/members-loop.php
could I fix some of theme ? because I wouldn’t upgrade so far !
@pcwriter, i dont know why this is not working for me, i put it in members-loop.php in my child theme, but nothing shows.
Looks like you used the single.php or index.php code instead. You fixed the sidebar and pagetitle tags on your own! Cool 
@funmi-omoba
In members-loop.php, simply add the following inside `
`
`<a class="button" href="`
Then in style.css of your child-theme, add
`#members-list .item-title a.button { float:right; }
You’ll wind up with a button styled just like all other buttons in your theme, linked to each member’s profile, sitting nicely on the right side. Edit the styling if you don’t want it on the right
If you mean the theme is saving your options most themes with options will add a line in you database table for those options. That is how it remembers.
It sounds a bit dramatic but removal all themes leaving default – copy to safe place if need. If that doesn’t work try same process with plugins then build up again.
Do you have the template pack on for BuddyPress? Some themes don’t need it.
If anyone can help test browser compatibility for this theme, especially IE 7/8/9, I’d be very grateful. You can report issues here or on GitHub at https://github.com/davidtcarson/frisco/issues
P.S. I’m pinging you @InterMike just to make sure you get notified about my last post with theme options info and custom.css usage. … I messed up your username in that post so you probably didn’t receive notification.
Thanks for your help testing it out and reporting issues, @InterMike.
I’ve just added a theme options page so that users can choose from a few basic color choices and use a custom.css stylesheet if they want to override anything. Aiming to get some other basic options in there for fonts.
For the custom stylesheet, check off the custom stylesheet option box in theme options, and create custom.css in the root theme directory.
A reminder that Frisco requires BuddyPress 1.5 and WordPress 3.2.1 or 3.3 (nightly build).
You can download the theme at https://github.com/davidtcarson/frisco/
Also I should note that I am using the most recent versions of both WordPress and Buddypress on a custom theme using the Template Pack. I am not currently using BBPress or Multi Site. I have already tried reuploading all the original template files.
jad117 –
something similar happened to me. I was editing the wrong file that was supposed to be the right file.
there are a few different ways to find other versions of the same file.
my preferred method:
if you have your site backed up to your local machine:
if you have Notepad++ (which is a free text editor program found here ->http://notepad-plus-plus.org/) you can use the “find in files” function. enter the phrase you are looking for (in this instance “public groups”). on the Directory section, select the wordpress folder. I tend to go to the highest directory possible so that I know for sure I’m not missing something.
the results will show you all instances where that phrase is. you can click on the phrase and it will open the file for you!
edit it there and then ftp/upload it to the same file path it came from (the file path is listed in the search results)
other places to look for the file you need to edit:
if you don’t have your site backed up on your local server
sometimes, the files are not on the Appearance tab. sometimes, they are in the plugins folder. (that was the case for one of the profile files I wanted to edit)
yoursite.comwp-contentpluginsbuddypressbp-themesbp-default
go to the plugins page
select buddypress from the drop down menu
edit the file there
hopefully, one of these two suggestion will help.
good luck.
@archonic Consider yourself ignored 
@boonebgorges ignore me! i thought the only files in “single” before were groups and plugins with none of the folders. not the case.
@foxly and others – Just wanted to drop a note about a recent commit https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/4977 where I made a minor adjustment to the new load order that should help a lot with plugin backward compatibility. In particular, plugins that are using the (old and incorrect but functional in 1.2.x) method of hooking their global and nav setup routines to ‘wp’ and ‘admin_menu’, which wasn’t working in earlier revs of BP trunk, should now be working. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3476 for more explanation.
That said, you should do the right thing and update your plugin so that it does it correctly: set up your globals at bp_setup_globals and your nav at bp_setup_nav!
Thanks for the reply.
I hadnt made a functions.php file for the child theme. so I have been trying to with little success. The codex says to rename the functions.php so it doesnt clash with the default but that doesnt work either. I either get fatal errors and have to delete via ftp or in the buddypress editor it say “unable to edit”.
I have tried copying the default and placing it in the child theme and I’ve tried to create a blank function.php
I’ve also tried copying and renaming the default functions.php
I know its probably something I’m doing wrong Any suggestions, I’ll keep trying in the meantime.
Thanks in advance

@archonic bp-template-pack will be updated for 1.5, yes. What about the members/single files was particularly confusing?
@foxly Thanks for the new links. I’ve made the change.
Any word on a revised bp-template-pack plugin for 1.5? Just spent half a day trying to shoot from the hip but failed and reverted. The new files under members/single in the bp-default were particularly confusing.
You could download one of the BuddyPress 1.5 beta releases and either use that, or check to see how we’ve updated it to work with custom menus.
