BuddyPress.org

yup…it sent me to a subscribe page on every click. i am also using suffusion theme (www.sob-s.com). you may need to add “suffusion BP template pack” or Bp deault template pack for it to work………

im also new here so if it doesnt work you may prefer to wait on professional consulting. just trying to add my 2 cents and hope it works for ya

Moral of the story? Always test with plugins and custom themes deactivated, this identifies whether it is a custom theme or third party plugin that is causing the issue and helps prevent confusion with people searching for bugs or issues with the BP core app.

Are you really sure you have activated the real bp-default theme, there is only one and you do refer to ‘a’ bp default theme. It’s essential to be sure you are running BP in it’s default state theme and without any third party plugins which may upset things. The ‘Create a group’ button should appear to the right of the Groups Directory heading on the groups page.

No it’s not removal of lines as this is a function call.

Allways give the codex a quick check to see if there’s any help there, you want this page:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/modifying-the-buddypress-admin-bar/

And you need to be using remove_action() filter

There is a list of the add_action links on the page.

Add the remove_action to your functions.php in child theme.

1st. This issue is not being caused by buddypress.

There is something wrong with the <div you added, did you close the <div?

did you recently change anything to the site layout, or install any plugins?

Have you tried this http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-wire/ by @sbrajesh ?

@luvs123 did you get it to work?

If you can’t access the site’s files, than there is nothing really you can do.

You need to edit a php file in your theme to do this.

Go into your theme folder /wp-content/themes/yourtheme

Go to the Members Folder –> Single —> Activity.php and delete everything listed below:

<li id="activity-filter-select" class="last">

`

switch to the default theme as mentioned in my previous post

Your code did not appear.

Try, as @hnla said before she deleted her post to revert to the default theme and see if it appears.

If you don’t want users to see your fixing on your site, install “maintenance mode” plugin

Well it should be there. I wonder why it is not working?

Go into your theme, if you have the buddypress extension pack installed, or you have created your child theme, go into your theme folder, (wp-content/themes/yourtheme) and then go into the folder named “groups.” Inside there should be a file called “Index.php”

Now check to see if the following code is listed anywhere in the file, “control or command +f” will search for the term.

`  <a class="button" href="”>`

If for any reason that it is not in the file, put the code above directly after this code in the file:

Brajesh wrote a plugin for it, check it out.

Creating The sitewide global/unified search Page for your Buddypress Theme

To remove the default tabs, you’ll need to modify the theme.

Read this page:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Then, once you’ve got the hang of that. Copy over /bp-themes/bp-default/header.php to your new child theme and modify the tab structure.

The function you’ll want is:
`is_user_logged_in()`

Wrap a is_user_logged_in() conditional around the tabs you want to show only for logged in users.

Something like this:

`

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

`

Note that if someone knows the URLs to those tabs, they’ll still be able to access them.

You might want to look into some BP private plugins like:

De nada, glad you resolved the issue on your own, and a Happy New Year to you too

One way to change member list presentation without touching core file is by adding some tweaks below any other styling in your active theme’s style.css. Something like :

`ul#members-list li {
border: 1px solid #cccccc;
width: 110px;
height: 110px;
float: left;
margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px;
padding: 3px;
text-align: center;
overflow: hidden;
}

ul#members-list li img.avatar {
float: none;
padding: 3px;
margin: 0px 0px 5px 0px;
}

ul#members-list li span.activity,
ul#members-list li span.update,
ul#members-list li div.action {
display: none;
}`
I haven’t tested this so adjust to taste, but you get the idea …

Cache db requests and you can host static files on a CDN. Using a light theme as well helps. Use browser dev tools to test bottle necks in speed.

Just a heads up. Most of the child themes probably wont work 100% with 1.2.7 version of BP because the default theme is missing things the child themes rely on and the theme reviewers in the WP repo are rejecting child themes because BP default is considered broken on their end.

If BP-default was added as a theme to the WP repo and not a via a plugin it would not pass the theme reviewers. But, theme reviewers test child themes based on this theme thats bundled with a plugin.

Hopefully the default theme gets fixed by the next version.

The CSS from buddypress is not broken, more like you not doing something correctly. Did you call the default.CSS?

There’s not enough details here to troubleshoot anything.

Free custom child themes from where? The repo? They all have different authors.

Have they each been updated for the latest version of BuddyPress? (I know for sure two have not.)

Apologies for not getting back.

If I had my brain in gear would have remembered the remove adminbar constant – thanks mercime.

Also this page in the codex will give you an idea of how the adminbar is created and manipulated and perhaps how you could re-position those links:
