WordPress 3.4.1 | BuddyPress 1.6.1
Theme Theme BP Columns with 5 Widgets
Self-hosted + self-installed
I need help with:
[1] removing the round corners and the space vertical empty space b/w header/body/footer and
[2] styling the menu to style BP Columns theme to look like CUNY Academic Commons [http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/]
@modemlooper helped with some CSS. The theme has a custom.css where it already has:
div#container, div#first .widget-area, div#fourth .widget-area, div#content, div#content .padder, div#footer-widget-area {
-moz-border-radius-topleft: 0px ;
-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 0px ;
-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 0px ;
-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 0px ;
border-top-left-radius: 0px ;
border-top-right-radius: 0px ;
-moz-border-radius-topright: 0px ;
-webkit-border-top-right-radius: 0px ;
-moz-border-radius-bottomright: 0px ;
-webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 0px ;
border-bottom-left-radius: 0px ;
border-bottom-right-radius: 0px ;

Additional notes:
[1] To all the WP vets {like me} here, who are NOT used to looking at the fancy shmancy _new_admin bar above the fold – that’s where you log in in order to submit a comment at the BuddyPress Support Forums. I’d never seen it if it was not for @djpaul a few minutes ago (and 5 days too late).
[2] Thanks goes to the to the dev.team of Buddy Press. We’ve used WP extensively for the last 10 years and giving it social network capabilities is a blast.
[3] Also thanks to @boonebgorges who introduced me to the Commons in a Box Project [http://commonsinabox.org/] and the powerful engine coming up in Nov.
Hello,
I’m using WordPress 3.4.1. and my own BuddyPress child theme under BuddyPress1.6 Default.
I’ve set a static home page and an empty page (called BLOG) to display the posts, using the GUI.
I’m also using Widgets Controller to select widgets to show in the sidebar on each page.
Everything works fine for the standard static pages (default template) but the sidebars are empty in the home page and the BLOG page even if I select some widgets to show there.
I can’t figure out why and where I have to dig?
Any idea?
Hello,
A client had a WordPress site which we moved onto one of our servers by copying all the files and using a MySQL dump we had from their previous IT people. We didn’t expect it to work straight away, and it didn’t, but we got over the obvious issues, and things started to become visible.
There have always been a lot of issues, though; it seems, for instance, that the db dump we were given originally was pretty corrupt. The whole thing is a pig, and we’ve decided to make sure all the code is as up-to-date as possible in order to eliminate any problems there. We’ve upgraded WordPress itself to 3.4.1, and BuddyPress at the moment is at 1.2.8.
Obviously we need to upgrade BuddyPress. The instructions at http://codex.buddypress.org/releases/version-1-6/upgrading-to-1-6/ say explicitly to upgrade first to 1.5 before moving up to 1.6, but it seems as though the automatic upgrade link in the plugins section of wp-admin wants to go straight to 1.6
Is it important to avoid this? If so, how should I go about the interim upgrade to 1.5? I downloaded the files for 1.5.6, but will I have to do anything to the database, or will it be sufficient to copy the new BuddyPress files over the top of their existing counterparts?
I’ve got the whole site backed up – all the files in the web root and a db dump – so it’s not the end of the world if something goes wrong, but I’d far rather avoid the faffing about.
Thanks in anticipation for your help.
Cheers,
Ben
Hi. I have installed the Bp-privacy-component to my Buddypress installation in order to give my users some degree of control over their privacy settings. I have translated the pot. file, created a po. and mo. files that I placed in the “languages” folder in my wordpress installation (bp-privacy-es_ES.mo and bp-privacy-es_ES.po for spanish translation). The Privacy settings are now in spanish, but the drop-down menus (list boxes) for the privacy options are still in english, and I just don´t know where to locate the source.
Any tips? Help would be most appreciated.
Best,
Erik.
hi,
I am new on this forum, I’m not sure to be in the right place…
I ask me some questions about buddy press: I’m working on a website on wordpress. I’m looking for a tool to share videos with different suppliers. In fact I need to send them some movies (in high quality), each supplier can access to only videos which concerned them. Do you think Buddypress can be a good tool for me? and if I can insert movies on this tool, how does it work? is there a sort of administrator who can choose how to define the parameters of access? is it possible to download videos which are posted on line or are you obliged to just seen them without any possibilities of downloading? if my suppliers can download a video, will it be quick?
I’m using the latest version of buddypress and wordpress.
Everything works fine – but there is no “Create Group”-Link. I can easily create a group manually using the url. How do I fix this issue?

Hi there. New to Buddypress. I am setting up a community for my site. My Buddypress site is pretty much up and running, but I have a small issue. I need my site in spanish, so I have translated the pot. file and created po. and mo. files that I placed in the “languages” folder of my wordpress installation. That did the trick, and the Buddypress installation is now running in spanish, but for some reason I just don´t understand, some messages are still being displayed in english… For instance, if I try to delete my BP account, the warning messages are still in english and I have no idea where BP is fetching them from.
Any assistance would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help.
Best,
Erik.
Hello,
I work for a client who wants a wordpress website where it will be possible:
• to sign-up to be registred in a directory (included the signature of a charter).
• or to become a member (included the signing of the charter) charging a cotisation after validation by the admin
•or to sign the charter of the association only
I ask me : how many forms ? how to articulate them ? Which plugins (buddypress ?)
You have an idea? Tell me!
Best regards,
Moque
I just installed WordPress, plus BuddyPress on a windows werver 2008 R2 and IIS 7.5/
After creating a web.config, I was able to get permalinks working. Now I have the issue of not being able to add status values, etc. I get the error “There was a problem posting your update, please try again”. I found post related to changing MySQL to not use strict, but these were dated 2 years ago, and seemed to be a hack back then.
Any thoughts?
“BuddyPress now uses the WordPress Toolbar. The BuddyBar has been deprecated. (#3596, #3661)”
Copy pasted from http://codex.buddypress.org/releases/version-1-6/
As a temporary solution I was able to find BuddyPresss version 1.5.6, which I installed, but I’d of course love to use the new version and have the BuddyBar.

Hey Guys!
Without wasting anyone’s time I will get straight to the point 
Can anyone please help me to achieve the following using buddypress:
a. Disabling buddypress bar on certain wordpress pages. We have custom registration and login pages so I dont want the bar to come on these pages.
b. I want Group Forum Topic Title, Group Forum Posts And Replies, Group Description, Group Names, Site Activity, User Activity And Profile fields to have character limits (just like what twitter has).
C. Is there a sitemap for buddypress?
Between, I am using the latest versions of both wordpress and buddypress.
Thanks and truly appreciate your help
Thanks!
