BuddyPress.org

I agree to this! For now, how can I switch the places between the cancel friendship button with send private message buttons?

Hi everyone I am a beginner at all this and I am having a little problems with the bp implementation with the bp -mystique theme and was wondering if someone could guide me towards the right direction. The wp portion of the site is looking good but as soon as i go to a bp part the header is not where it suppose to be there is a big space and the background image for the site is not there anymore.

It seems that the bp is not registering the modification I have made on the wordpress part.

the site im working on is icacsports.com

Any help would be most appreciated

cheers,

Is this a new installation or did you recently upgrade WP? WP/BP versions? What theme are you using?

Deactivate all plugins but leave BuddyPress activated and use bp-default theme. Clear cache. See if the same erratic behavior shows up.

@ivailoski please contact theme author as that is a premium theme which would require us to purchase it first to assist you.

My best guess would be to open up a home.php file in your theme, make a copy of it to be safe e.g. home-original.php, open up home.php and delete the section which would probably a featured div or something like that. Reupload to theme’s folder in server. If you deleted the correct div block, then all’s well. If something goes wrong, replace the mucked up home.php with the copy you made of it.

Change theme to bp-default theme and see if same behavior persists. If not, then contact Social Theme author for resolution.

Hi guys, I just searched and followed the links here.

I tried moving the code for the “All activity” tab in a child theme, and managed to move the tab to the right of “@mentions” tab.

The problem is although “My friends” tab is now the first tab and appears to be active by default (I added class=”selected” for it), but the rss feed area still displays sitewide activties.

In my understanding, buddypress loads “all activities” when the activity page is opened, and by clicking tabs or setting filter in the dropdown menu, it filters the loaded activites.

So I guess if there is code for filtering and displaying only “my friends” activities, so we could add the code right after bp loads all activities.

Does this sounds reasonable? Anyone has any idea?

fjrichman… I agree this is a problem. It would be one thing if BuddyPress only added the padding when the site visitor was logged in, but it’s poor form to add 25px pixels padding to the body regardless. I understand that it would be a problem for WordPress developers who don’t call body_class(), but, by default, the BuddyPress default stylesheet (adminbar.css) should specify its padding on body.logged-in, not on the generic body tag. In any case, that’s the easiest solution I know of. Just modify adminbar.css (most likely at /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css) on the first line to body.logged-in. If for some reason you have themes that don’t or can’t call body_class(), you can use the is_user_logged_in function to override the BuddyPress styling. Something like: `body#mypage { padding: 0px; } `. Hope that helps, two months later.

Looking back at your question, I see that you were actually asking more generally to start about BuddyPress tweaking a design wether or not the user is logged in. Well, in that case it would be harder to have a one-size-fits-all solution. Sorry if I missed the thrust of your question, but this may be helpful to others.

Custom theme…..

Default theme…..

Here is one of the easiest ways to change the amount of activity stream posts per page in the default BuddyPress theme.

1. FTP to – example.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity/ – in your WP directory
2. Open – bp-activity-templatetags.php – in your text editor
3. Ctrl + F – then enter – ‘per_page’
4. Just change the value following – ‘per_page’ =>

Notifications for at-mentions will be in BP 1.3: https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/3403

Your messaging problem sounds strange, like your installation somehow got corrupted, or like you have a plugin conflict. Are you running any other BP-related plugins? Try deactivating them and turning on the BuddyPress Default theme for the sake of testing; that will help determine whether the problem is with BP, or your BP configuration, or with third-party add-ons.

If you created a parent theme and your subsites have child themes based on parent theme, add this to parent theme’s functions.php file
`<?php
/* force max-width for images and embeds */
$GLOBALS = $content_width = 600;
?>`
change 600 to whatever image size you want. This will override whatever number you set in individual sites’ Media settings for “Large”

As for implementation for all different themes within your installation, you could create a new file `my-maxwidth.php`, paste the code given above there and upload to mu-plugins folder. Make sure that the width you add there is good for all the themes you have allowed for use of members in Super Admin > Themes.

The GPL only applies to *distribution*. If your client plans on packaging up the website somehow… then worry about it.

“Does that mean that all of the code for this project would have to be GPL licensed and made available for free because we use BuddyPress for social networking? “

no, it does not. only if you actually *release * it. Just having it as part of your website is not releasing your code.

think of it this way – Buddypress is a plugin for WordPress. Anyone who build a site on WordPress itself is also not required to release their code.

(and I will note that GPL doesn’t mean it has to be free either. There’s plenty of for-sale GPL plugins and themes.)

These screenshots have been taken from the default theme, so if you’re using that you already have what you want. The drop down menu is just another way to navigate your site, but can be deactivated if you want to do that.

As Boone suggests these are just styling concerns aren’t they? Tabs are simply artifice, an illusion created through CSS; thus for bp-default you must create a child theme to allow you to re-style those links in the manner you wish.

First of all, it’s not a database version. CSS in WordPress and BuddyPress has those “get” parameters in the URL as a means of forcing browsers to refetch the file rather than use its cached version. For example, when BuddyPress is upgraded in v1.3, you don’t want people to be loading the browser cache version of the CSS for v1.2. This is exactly what hnla told you above four weeks ago.

Secondly, if your theme is trying to load two versions of that file, it’s because in your child theme (or customised version thereof) is calling it twice. I can’t comment where or how this could be happening as we can’t see any custom script you’ve put into your theme.

Finally, you should be safe to copy and paste the php snippet r-a-y gave you two weeks ago into your functions.php; just be sure to paste it before the “?>” line at the bottom of the file.
