Here’s a bit of shameless self-promotion
Some pretty cool themes here: http://BuddyLite.com

there is no magic pill… I been at it for over a month…. Im pretty happy with the theme I created but its taking a lot of work…. I might start making Premium BP themes for sale soon…

I am trying to use my index.php file to check if the user is logged in, then display the php code from register.php on the home page if it is not. I can get it to check if the user is logged in, but the registration form will not show up on my index.php if they are not. Is there a way to make this work?

That’s a screenshot of the old bp-sn-parent theme that came bundled with the 1.1 releases of Buddypress. Way outdated. But you can recreate that look if you want to try your hand at making your own theme

FYI, the bp.org theme will never be publicly released.

The frontpage is just made up of a few floating divs and a little bit of positioning for the labels.

It’s not really that much different? I doubt it’s a good idea to use an older default theme with later BP versions the two will not be compatible

Examine your browser source code that should show the new classes applied to the list elements of the activity stream ul.

You should or want to see a class of odd or even but last after a few others that are generated and there must be a space between class tokens (words/strings) that is why the instruction to include the space required in the PHP code ‘ odd’ rather than ‘odd’

Your example should work it’s the same as mine but you need to use the css ruleset I showed above or something similar there’s nothing really I can paste up that would help further – have you got your theme running live anywhere to look at?

It’s basically the default theme but probably an early 1.2 version.

Hi,

We have tested the contus video gallery with the following buddypress themes and the contus video gallery is working fine with them.

1. Darwin (BuddyPress BuddyPack) 1.2.1
2. BuddyPress Default 1.2.7
3. BuddyTheme 1.3
4. Randy Candy 1.0.0

Please try with the above buddypress themes. If you have difficulty with any other buddypress theme, let us know. We will check and let you know.

Regards
Saranya

Chill out! Check this out: http://buddydev.com/buddypress/creating-the-sitewide-globalunified-search-page-for-your-buddypress-theme/

I have this in my site, and it’s a great approach, if you follow the directions.

Also, double-check that you’ve got the latest version of BP Mag http://buddydev.com/themes/bp-mag/

@sesaconsulting –

1. By default you create a group from the link at the Groups Directory header “Create Group” which generates this URL to take you through the process

2. The “Add Friend” link is found in any member’s header usually under or beside the member’s avatar.

3. You cannot find dashboard > BuddyPress > Forums Setup on your single WP site?

Further testing – Deactivate BP Template Pack plugin and change theme to bp-default theme to isolate the problem.

@Eclipsetuner018 I’ve tested the BP Mag theme on a test install upgraded to BP 1.2.8 and WP 3.1 before, and encountered that problem once. I deactivated all plugins except BP and the problem went away. I haven’t gone back to check which among the possibly outdated plugins caused the conflict since I was just focused on creating a child theme for BP Mag at that time.

Btw, @sbrajesh provides support for his themes and plugins at http://buddydev.com/forums/

? did you change a bp-default file or do as pointed out earlier and make a child theme?

If you didn’t do so move your edited file to the child theme and either replace the original from the archive file or not worry as it doesn’t need to be there and an update will place a fresh copy anyway

Yes, you can surround several links and even HTML elements with the conditional is_user_logged_in.

The code in pastebin.com is for the header.php for child theme of bp-default theme as hnla mentioned above.

The last time I checked, Jooc theme has not been updated for current BP/WP versions.

You do this in a child theme, please see the BP codex for guidance on how to create a child theme (easy!)

Mercime has shown you how and where it’s not really php coding it’s a matter of copy pasting .

@Nit3watch I re-factored the link in this thread:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/css-trick-how-to-style-activity-stream-odd-and-even-posts/
To locate the post I made with snippet and also pasted into the thread above, it may help?

Added this snippet fro a while back from the link above it might be useful, but also I posted this over a year ago so may contain inaccuracies:
`
In file bp-themes/bp-default/activity/activity-loop.php

add line ‘’ above line 20 ‘’

Immediately below the while loop on line 20 add:

‘’

To print out the odd or even classes go to the file:

bp-themes/bp-default/activity/entry.php

And add :

‘’ to line 5 so it looks like:

‘<li class=” ” ‘

You can then style the classes ‘odd’ and ‘even’ as you wish.
`

Turn on debugging, as I spotted a few deprecated functions pop up in warnings.

Uploading to repo is probably best slowed down it’s tempting to upload at every change but it’s inevitable that the quicker you rush to upload the more likely the second after you realise you forgot to change version numbers and a hundred other little things
