Can you explain a bit more on the process of making a child theme? I too would love to have the member blogs have an integrated look and feel into the default buddypress theme – NOT the ugly WordPressMU blue theme :p.
Thanks
Hello all, before I get started I have spent a good deal of the day searching the forums and trying bits and pieces but I figured I would create a new thread in hopes to salvage whats left of my unproductive day.
Now the good stuff, I am using a Theme based on Woothemes Fresh News, worked perfectly, so I decide to add buddypress 1.1.3 to the mix and wanted to use my current theme over the BP theme. I saw Andy’s post that all you have to do is copy over the files from bp-sn-parent to my current theme and it would work, so I did that and it works… somewhat
I have uploaded the following directories and files to my current active theme from the bp-sn-parent folder:
_inc
activity
blogs
directories
friends
groups
messages
profile
registration
status
wire
links.php
optionbar.php
plugin-template.php
searchform.php
userbar.php
attachment.php
Then I opened style.css from the bp-sn-parent and copied and pasted the contents into my current style.css.
/* Font styles */
@import url( _inc/css/fonts/12px.css );
/* Layout styles for home page, internal pages and blog/directory pages */
@import url( _inc/css/layout/home-page/3c-right.css );
@import url( _inc/css/layout/internal-pages/3c-left.css );
@import url( _inc/css/layout/blog-dir-pages/2c-right.css );
/* Admin bar styles */
@import url( _inc/css/adminbar.css );
/* Default example styles — these should be your own styles in a child theme */
@import url( _inc/css/screen.css );
/// THE ISSUES
The homepage has the admin bar up top just without any styling (i.e drop down colors, admin bar background) but its there. When I go to a member profile page the admin bar is running down the side not up top where it belongs and the rest of the page has no styling attached. So what am I missing here? None of the styling is attached to my custom theme. I typed all this because im sure other people have this problem maybe this thread can help them.
Thank you all
WordPress scales just fine. Is it perfectly and sveltely built for all applications? No.
http://ma.tt/2006/03/wordpress-and-lyceum/ is a good read about this from a few years back.
BuddyPress doesn’t really suffer any of these as advantages or disadvantages, since it currently sits on top of an MU installation; it just kinda “is.”
I suspect it was just a matter of finding the WPMU functions that don’t exist within WP, recreating them in a plugin and using existing WP functions in their place. This isn’t surprising considering that the platforms share about 99% of the same code, but with the code merge around the corner this plugin is a little bit late to the game for most folks.
A for effort though.
I was looking at the About section of this site but didn’t really get the answer that I need. If someone could enlighten me pleas if BuddyPress can be a standalone software or does it need to be migrated with WordPress/MU/BBPress?
I’m looking at building a community site where each user can have their own blogs and showcase their stuffs (videos / music)?
Thanks in advance
