@sobuddy you just add the WP template tag to show the time https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_time e.g. “

Hello,

for 1.5.x versions of BP you can add this piece of code in your wp-config.php
`define( ‘BP_USE_WP_ADMIN_BAR’, true );`
or add these function to your theme functions.php file if the above doesn’t work.
`function remove_bp_adminbar(){
remove_action( ‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’, 8 );
remove_action( ‘admin_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’);
show_admin_bar(true);
}
add_action(‘after_setup_theme’,’remove_bp_adminbar’);
?>`

or you may wait for BP 1.6 where BP’s adminbar will be integrated in WP’s one.

The default theme uses https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_date so that would be a good spot for starting to modify that. It uses your set date and time format in WordPress under settings so you can modify that there and it will reflect on the theme.

“Default: the date_format option (‘Date Format’ on Settings > General panel)”

I’m also looking for a solution to this problem, which seems to involve a lot of different plugins and tweaking as you said. Haven’t heard anything about this being a part of BuddyPress core anytime in the near future unforunately. It should probably be a part of WordPress core in that case since BP uses WP:s user functions.

@gyoo if https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/admired is the Admired theme you’re referring to, we already have instructions for BP compatibility process at https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/buddy-press-not-working-with-my-current-theme/

@jomjom No wonder the instructions for compatibility for instyle theme last year was not working for you, the code from instyle’s page.php from last year has changed a lot (see http://pastebin.com/1PcjiXK9 from original poster)

Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your instyle theme folder in server during the compatibility process.

Since you’ve revised the BP template files, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders transferred to your theme’s folder in server during the compatibility process -> /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run dashboard Appearance > BP Compatibility.

Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.

A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`

You can do a user check in the template file if you want using this: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_user_logged_in

Maybe that would be a good starting point for you?

Adding a sidebar would require you to change the width of the content div and then also add in another get_sidebar call. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/buddypress-default-theme-12-add-more-sidebar-column/ is a good starting point.

As for changing the header – do you just want to change the header or the entire content area as it’s set to the full width of the site?

I take it you used a developer to develop the code to auto generate the usernames from the email address… what does the developer say about this problem?

On the face of it, it looks like they are applying some hashing algorithm to the email address to generate the username.

Love it or like it, you should be aware that usernames in addition to email addresses are a fairly fundamental feature of WordPress — attempting to bypass the need for both can lead to issues, e.g. using a raw email address for username, would lead to strange urls for the member profile pages in BuddyPress.

@newpress why on earth have you posted this site here? This is a forum for Buddypress this app you are trying to promote is not even WordPress based, and thus entirely inappropriate to posts here, please do not do so again.

If you do not want people messing around too much then really you should think about posting an admin loggin on a public forum. I feel you haven’t learnt much from the other post where you blindly downloaded a script and uploaded to your live site? If your Host is troubled then it is firmly your responsibility and you must think about that before leaving links like this.

I am removing the link as not appropriate to this forum.

@dailyblog https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/ for bbPress 2.+ plugin aka Sitewide Forums.

There’s no updated plugin for the BP Group Forums.

@lakhlu late as this may be … Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your collection theme folder in server during the compatibility process.

If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder in server, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility.

Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.

I have just tried to install BuddyPress on my WP version 3.4.1 and using the salutation theme.
On click Finish and I get the below error:

Any ideas / suggestions ?

For questions 2 and 3 — yes, you can customise these aspects of your site — there are many ways of doing it, and to some extent it depends on the approach you take to developing your site’s theme.

You can remove tabs, and add new tabs through the BuddyPress API
You can also remove them by developing your own custom template files (and similarly for the avatar sizes)

If you look on the showcase tab on this site, or visit bpinspire.com for more up to date examples, you can get a feel for what you can achieve based on BuddyPress.

Much the same as a WordPress site doesn’t have to follow the basic blog structure, similarly a BuddyPress site doesn’t have to follow the generic bp-default theme structure and UX.

Hi, I have the same exact problem!
This is what I get in my PHP log file:

Please help me! How can I fix this issue?

go to your current themes directory, open up functions.php
add
`
register_sidebar(array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Sidebar2’ ),
‘id’ => ‘sidebar2’,
‘description’ => __( ‘Widgets in this area will be shown on sidebar2.’ ,’buddypress’ ),
‘before_widget’ => ‘

It’s sounds you need a developer to work on your general site build, rather than having specific BuddyPress questions.

You can hire a developer by posting here: http://jobs.wordpress.net
You can also try posting on the jobs board on this site: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/

Do not ever download scripts that are not hosted on WordPress.org or at least have a good following and are well known. I even test plugins on a separate install before using live.

Hi @Hugo, you can check the plugin please, i hav’nt time to add it to wordpress repo.

and you Mr @newpress, don’t throw accusations around like that .
