But you haven’t created any rules for sidebar so it can only sit in the flow??!!

It looks as though #sidebar needs to be placed after your #sidebar-content element has closed as you have rules for a classic source order arrangement with #content-sidebar floated 100% width and it’s first child given a right margin to clear space for the sidebar with this arrangement #sidebar element must be flowed after the main sidebar-container closes. Then you need to actually describe sidebar ruleset that floats it left, set a width and an equal negative left margin to match the width.

the problem for us IS with the theme. we were using the simple wp communty theme which may mean its a compatabilty issue between buddypress and a wp theme. the odd thing is that it worked for the past two months. its not a plug in issue. we could reinstall buddypress and wordpress but we’re afraid we’ll lose all site content.

I just got the same job done on my child them (based on bp-default).
Of course, do it in Child theme, it’s safer and convinient.
I feel the easiest way is to remove the theme’s orginal nav lines, code my own nav and give it different id and class. This way can avoid inherit theme’s css
Adding bp links to admin bar should be another story, I haven’t arrive there yet

@csbarrett 1st, you should have mentioned that you were using the Citizen Kane bp-default child theme.
2nd, the only CSS it has directly imported from the bp-default theme is the adminbar.css therefore can’t fathom what you mean by “pulling both header images” and “overriding the bp-default header.css”.
3rd, perhaps @modemlooper, the theme author, can shed some light on your theme issues.

I did the upgrade to my theme…but still have the same problem. Ideas?

You need to revise HTML structure in BP templates transferred to your active theme in Step Three of the compatibility process. Plus copy some styling from bp-default’s style.css and adjust to taste.
BP Template Pack Process – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
Template Pack Walkthrough – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/

– create a bp-default child theme,
– copy header.php from bp-default theme folder and add to child theme,
– open up header.php and delete lines 51- 77 and line 81, save
– upload child theme folder with the revised header.php and style.css to server

Simple revisions via adding some styles in active theme’s style.css file
#1 can be addressed by adding `{ display: none; }` to specific widget’s avatar image
#2 which list are you referring to? In any case, add missing styles for the the overlapping images in lists with something like `{ float: left; clear: left; }` specific to the list ID or class
#3 can add styling like `body.members img.avatar { width: 35px; height: 35px; }`

mmm….for me that action remove the whole Activity Stream….

Instead I prefer to override the page in the child theme.
Simply comment lines 27-28 of activity/entry.php where you should find the reply link
`<!–

<a href="” class=”acomment-reply” id=”acomment-comment-“>
()

–>`

Also i’ve tried to do the same with lines 191-192 of _inc/ajax.php to remove the reply link for the existent reply comments meta but didn’t seem to work….anyway, soon the stream will flood them away

Your theme needs to be updated for BP 1.2.7. Did you use the Template Pack to add support into Platform theme?

@ChuckNJ and @phyz: thanks for using and liking our theme. We are very interested in feedback and examples of how others are using it. Please check out our demo page, FAQ and documentation is also following soon on there.

will check thanks

@ChuckNJ I would love to show you, but its only in the testing phase right now so it’s not up to me right now. What I can say is this is a great theme and allows for great customization. When the site is done I will definitely send you out a link.

@ChuckNJ Oh alright, when you post there is a bar on the right side, under “post tags” called “featured image”. Click “set featured image” and then either upload or select from your library. Also with this theme you are able to set which categories are shown in the slider. For instance, I created a category called “featured” and only those posts in the category get displayed. This is useful because you may not want all of your categories to be displayed.

Here’s a quick snippet you can add in your theme’s functions.php:

`function ray_number_online_users() {
$i = 0;

if ( bp_has_members( ‘user_id=0&type=online&per_page=999&populate_extras=0’ ) ) :
while ( bp_members() ) : bp_the_member();
$i++;
endwhile;
endif;

return $i;
}`

Then you can use it in a template like:

`if ( function_exists( ‘ray_number_online_users’ ) ) echo ray_number_online_users();`

—

*Sidenote: code could be better. I just modified the code from the online widget.

@zomex – If you’re trying to override the adminbar CSS on the subblog, create a file called:
`/wp-content/themes/_YOURTHEME_/_inc/css/adminbar.css`

And copy the styles from bp-default’s adminbar.css. Then you can customize the styles to your heart’s content.

Since you’ve dug up a 3 month old post, the theme for the future 1.3 release has these switched to date now

for me the same thing not only on bp-default/index.php
even in single blog post at bp-default/single.php

Anyway +1 for @DJPaul suggestion.
