yes but if im not wrong, that wouldnt allow you to assign different themes to the blog. Each niche site/blog is different. They all have different purposes. Atleast the site/blog part, but no need to have multiple communities.
You need to address this to the author of the theme.
Yes 3.0.1…and.i just solved my problem.
I used buddypress-widget-theme witch is active for the whole site.
So i mixed the two theme in one, and all is going well now.
The confusion came from the widget theme who affect only the homepage, but because he is enabled everywhere, my child theme could not affect BP directly.
Anyway thank you and sorry for the trouble.

No harm done 
If you, or anyone else who works with BuddyPress themes, have issues like this with the template tags, and would like them done in a different way, I’d love to see an enhancement ticket filed on trac.buddypress.org with an example of what you’d like it to work like. Make up function names, etc.
It’s much easier to implement something you’d love rather than something we’d love
@djpaul
OK, apology in order – my temperature sizzled, and I jumped to the conclusion that they were being added in the core, and not as a filter in the default theme (which is a damn good place for them!).
Now, if only you could tear half the other activity presentation stuff out of the core – or leastways create some more granular template tags / functions – so that we’re not stuck PHP unlocking those monolithic activity strings. That would be really lovely.
Apologies again, bit of humble pie for me, and @nuprn1 .. thanks for pointing out the filter
I’d agree at least 64Mb. I think you can get away with 32Mb if it’s a low-traffic site, but it depends on how much code is loaded from any other active plugins and themes.
The guys here have it correct — the theme will need updating. If you’ve let the theme authors know, then thank you
This link will show all differences in the theme files. It might be of help? Red is removed, green is added.
https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset?old_path=/tags/1.2.5.2/bp-themes/bp-default&new_path=/tags/1.2.6/bp-themes/bp-default/
To clarify, the above link shows changes in the bundled “BP-Default” theme, and it was intended for any theme designers who have created a BP-Default child theme to help pin-point the changes. It won’t apply to any other theme. Sorry for any confusion.
EDIT: third time’s the charm
@DJPaul I don’t mind them being there Paul I just wondered if we could change them anywhere to fit with the theme of our sites?
I don’t think it’s unfair that we revise the theme and any of the bundled widgets with each release. We need to be able to iterate on all areas of the theme (and other presentational elements) in order to continue to improve and add new features to BuddyPress. As Rich says, to remove the secondary avatar, put this into your functions.php:
remove_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta', 'bp_dtheme_activity_secondary_avatars', 10, 2 );
you can remove it via the filter bp_get_activity_secondary_avatar
or even better just remove this filter that is used in the functions.php
`remove_filter( ‘bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta’, ‘bp_dtheme_activity_secondary_avatars’, 10, 2 );`
@rogercoathup – no idea… seems if a trac report is submitted the request is made if possible. (maybe not enough discussion is made in the ticket comments to counter – generally speaking for any enhancement)
‘What’ you should change sort of depends on if you are using a child theme of the BuddyPress default theme or not. There is quite a list of updates for the theme changes the members is one, ajax.php /js and functions.php is another along with some member/group/forum loop stuff. I would strongly suggest if you can getting the latest update from your theme source particularly as you say you are a novice which I take means not comfy in code?
@Manu, It still is not solved. That being said I’m using and older version of the theme and suspect it may be rosolved by upgrading to the newest release. If that does not do it, I’m sure the developers will releasing and up date or fix ASAP.
@rich, I have notified them. Also thanks for the suggestion re adding the old function back.
I will post my final solution when it fixed.
Do any of the SEO plugins let you manipulate the slugs from the admin panel?
Can we define the custom URL SLUG from functions.php?
I will probably love a plugin
If you ask Brajesh nicely when his site is back up and running he may help you with the theme, even though it’s a free theme. however as Roger says any more detailed adjustments customisations may be best handed to a developer to carry out for you.
Ah ok. Thanks for the help
yes they work with the default theme. The problem is with the new theme the post buttons are missing. What file would I need to find and edit to add a post new topic button ? I would like to add a new topic button in several places, like it is on this forum we are using currently..
I’ll be updating. remove: from buddypress-mobile/themes/default/ members/members-loop.php
<?php bp_member_add_friend_button() ?>
@whitbyglennk
If you post this on the job board on here, you should be able to hire a developer who’ll rework the Cosmic Buddy theme for you
Rich is suggesting you try reverting to BuddyPress default theme (as you should for most problems) – so you can isolate the problem.
Do your forums work using the default theme?
If not, have you set them up correctly: https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/using-an-existing-bbpress-installation/
