BuddyPress.org

Thank You Sir,
But among the field types offered there is no “Edit Box” with functionality of editor. The maximum features that is close to my demand is a multi-line text are. I need the an edit box with similar features as the page/post edit box in WordPress.
Can you furtehr help please?
Thanks in advance

PS.:

margin: 0 9.46429%;

I guess, it’s not the reason for the misfuncting; but however – due to other theme modifications (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/making-a-better-usage-of-my-blog-space?replies=2#post-6034077) – I should choose 2.5% (instead of 9.46429), isn’t it?

@hnla:

I’m completely reinstalling BuddyPress (I had installed and working before, but I deleted it cause I thought it wasn’t working smoothly with another plugin I installed after it.) – like I said I want to avoid reinstalling WordPress if I can because of the number of users (about 50, but they are all fellow fan fiction writers and.or readers like myself).

When I tried it myself, I made sure I correctly created and associated the various pages with the BuddyPress components that needed them. I then went to check out my profile and got a 404, after getting a few more of those, I went and removed it again.

@shanebp Thanks!

Now I’m considering in mixing a “job board theme” (example) with WooCommerce. Usually this kind of themes come with custom made or external plugins that allow them to screen resumes.

My concern then would be “how to” create a way of allowing the special user to screen and vote the candidates just like in this contest sites. I found several contest/competition plugins, but all of them are oriented to social voting. I just need that the special user can vote and decide the winner.

Thanks for the tips on the jobs board :).

Best,
Vicente

WordPress might not, but that doesn’t make it right, does it? 🙂

Perhaps its just my comp sci education but a good DBA will tell you never have a field do “double duty” it can only lead to bad things.

A login name, and a communication / mention name are two very different properties. Two-step or not they really should be doing double duty.

Note: I’m not being a critic. That’s not my thing man 🙂 Just pointing out that a reasonable DBA would frown upon the current approach – especially in the content of the @mention of BP.

Hi @r-a-y and @danp

I created a new ticket as I was told here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5890

I hope that I did the procedure well.

It is a crucial issue for us, who use non-latin characters and hopefully there will be a solution 🙂

I appreciate your time.

Thank you very much.

It works with the code for the buddypress.php + inserting the other code:

.buddypress #main #primary {
    margin: 0;
}

.buddypress #main #content {
    margin: 0 9.46429%;
}

via Dashboard / ‘Simple Custom CSS’-plugin.

—

But there still must be a mistake within the style.css for my child theme folder. It’s content is right now:

/*
 Theme Name:   Reddle Child
 Template:     reddle
*/

@import url("../reddle/style.css");

/* =Theme customization starts here
-------------------------------------------------------------- */

.buddypress #main #primary {
    margin: 0;
}

.buddypress #main #content {
    margin: 0 9.46429%;
}

But it does not work without using ‘Simple Custom CSS’…

Thank you.

1st:

Besides the different “HTML structure for Reddle and Twenty” Thirdteen I made earlier two fundamental mistakes:

a) I did not recognise, that the comment at the beginning of a child theme must be different, than the comment at the beginning of the parent theme.

‘The only required lines are the Theme Name, the Template.

The Template is the directory name of the parent theme.’

https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes#How_to_Create_a_Child_Theme

So, within my earlier attempt, step 4th it should have been not:

Theme Name: Reddle

Rather:

Theme Name: Reddle Child

And it was missing there the line:

Template: reddle

Isn’t it?

b) I did not recognise the instruction:

Activate the child theme.

2nd:

However, now the content of the style.css within my reddle-child folder is:

/*
 Theme Name:   reddle-child
 Template:     reddle
*/

@import url("../reddle/style.css");

/* =Theme customization starts here
-------------------------------------------------------------- */

@media screen and (min-width: 600px) {
       body.buddypress #primary {
              width: 100%;
       }
}

Is it correct?

Besides I activated the reddle-child theme, and deactiviated the reddle-theme. – Nevertheless it still not works.

3rd:

‘Copy over the content of Twenty Twelve’s full-width.php file into the new buddypress.php file.’

https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/twenty-twelve-theme/

The ‘Reddle’-theme does not have any full-width.php

Therefore I took directly the code, which is mentioned there.

Therefore content of my buddypress.php within my reddle-child-folder is now:

<?php
/**
 * BuddyPress: Full-width Page Template, No Sidebar
 *
 * A full-width template for all BuddyPress pages.
 *
 * @ since Reddle 1.0 and BuddyPress 2.1
 */

get_header(); ?>
 
    <div id="primary" class="site-content">
        <div id="content" class="full-width" role="main">
            <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
                <?php get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?>
            <?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
        </div><!-- #content -->
    </div><!-- #primary -->
 
<?php get_footer(); ?>

4th:

But nevertheless it does not work.
