@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
`
`
with the following:
`
<?php if (get_option('instyle_integration_single_top') ” && get_option(‘instyle_integrate_singletop_enable’) == ‘on’) echo(get_option(‘instyle_integration_single_top’)); ?>
Okay I hope this is the right place for this post. Anyways I am located in Denver, Colorado and I was just wondering to know if anyone knows anybody or is somebody with good knowledge of buddypress, wordpress, php and everything else who can partner up with me on my project and in return I would let them have the ownership of certain percentage of my rights in my web designing project. this website is going to be a social network but I need someone with the required knowledge, live in Colorado and is serious.
my email is raminrahim@hotmail.com
please contact me if the above description is YOU.
When logged out, I see my site name, followed by “Login”, “Sign Up”, and on the far right, “Visit”. The “Visit” shows the white down arrow indicating a submenu, but when I hover, nothing happens. Clicking “Visit” reloads the page (“#”). When logged in, the menu changes to “My Account”, “Dashboard”, “Notifications”, as well as the “Visit” menu on the far right. They too have down arrows, but again nothing happens on hover (i.e. no submenu). At first, I thought it was a CSS problem, but I’m not sure which CSS file???

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.
I have a problem with my Avatars not showing up on either profile and groups. Gravatar works, but when trying to upload a custom image an Avatar it is not shown.
Even tried on a fresh install of WordPress with MultiSite enabled. Then only a new install of Buddypress and no other plugins activated. Scenario:
Go to my profile, change Avatar, upload new image, crop (works fine) then get the message:
Your new avatar was uploaded successfully!
BUT – nothing happens. No new image is shown. And with debug enabled I get the error:
Notice: Undefined variable: src_file in /home/topmodel/public_html/wp-admin/includes/image.php on line 67
Notice: Undefined variable: src_file in /home/topmodel/public_html/wp-admin/includes/image.php on line 67
When checking wp-content/uploads/avatars, the images are there!
I tried all kinds of thing, like: terminate Cpanel account and started all fresh with default settings and only 1 plugin activated: Buddypress. Still same problem.
Anybody some advice?
@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.
A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`
`
with the following:
`
<div id="post-” >
`
Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from `
…
` or `
..
` to `
// Titles Of Respective BP Page Templates //
`, AND move tag and title to above `
`. Just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.
Save files.
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:
Warning: Illegal offset type in 
AppServwwwwordpresswp-contentpluginsbuddypressbp-coreadminbp-core-update.php on line 642.
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.
I would like to add a second dropdown next to the “Order By” dropdown on the blogs section.
I can see the query in http://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/bp-blogs/bp-blogs-classes.php
I can’t find a way to add in another criteria. I want to make another dropdown list of categories that I’ve tied into their blog meta.
So for example, you could see a list of all blogs about “Dogs” or “Cats” from the dropdown, and it would update the listing via ajax like it does with the Order By Drop down.
Does this make sense? I tried to extend the class and replace the function, but it has no effect and no errors. I placed the new extended class in my theme’s custom-functions.php (Where my other customizations are)
Do I need to make a plugin to do this? Is this possible? I don’t want to alter core files!

This is what I get in my PHP log file:

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’ => ‘
Hello, sorry for the time it takes to answer. I was moving my wordpress server.
I made the adjustments you suggested, but it shows these errors:

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 
.
Sorry, I’ve tried using bbPress 2.1, but it is not integrating well with my group forums and Buddypress 1.5 in general.
What I’ve found:
– Buddypress activity stream not updating when making bbPress forum posts
– Creating a ‘new topic’ in bbPress doesn’t always work. Sometimes I get an error message that no forums exist for a particular group, but doesn’t give me the option of creating a new forum topic from the front-end. I have to go into the WordPress backend to create new topics.
How I installed it:
– Disable ‘Discussion Forums’ component from Buddypress setup
– Uninstall ‘Group Forums’ from Buddypress forum setup
– Delete the WordPress page (“My group forums”) I previously created and linked to Buddypress discussion forum to
– Install bbPress 2.1 and activate
Can you let me know if this looks correct?
I’m also having this same issue.
On a fresh install, (http://dsjprojects.com/buddypress) post comments are indeed logged into the activity stream.
But on my main sites, (http://anawimcc.org, http://signsofsafetyusa.com/activity/) post comments aren’t logged in the activity stream. Not even after reverting to Default theme and disabling all plugins, and even updating to the most recent BuddyPress. Not sure what it could be…
I don’t know what @r-a-y means by “setting my activity stream filter”. I’ve looked around a bit and not found a whole lot on this specific issue; This Thread seems to have a bit of good material but I think I’m in over my head a bit.
Any help? Or, anyone having the same problem?
Thanks much,
But there’s no way I can find how to do that…
