How to apply the patch? Where to apply?

Many thanks @r-a-y. :***

Hello everyone. I am having a slight problem with the budypress plug in. It wants to take over my website and change the face of it.
I am looking to install a social network as part of the wordpress blog, not in place of it. I would like it to reside in mydomain.com/buddypress or something like that. I am a Star Trek podcast and we want to create a social network like we had on ning, but if we have to migrate to an alternative, why not just take it in house and host it on our own server. So basically when you go to my home page which is at http://www.LouTrekShow.com you can see a link to our social network which would be http://www.LouTrekShow.com/buddypress and then the social network will pop up where people can hang out.
Is it possible to do this with buddypress??
Thank you.

Create a WordPress page and apply a page template first.

Do not use a PHP plugin like ExecPHP unless you really have to.

You’re passing the parameters wrong.

if ( bp_has_activities( 'object=groups&primary_id=2') ) : bp_the_activity();

You can either create a shortcode plugin that uses the BP activities loop, or create a PHP page template with the activities loop with the group parameters passed into it:

Hello,
I’ve using the buddypress template pack and I still have this message:

BuddyPress is ready. You’ll need to activate a BuddyPress compatible theme to take advantage of all of the features. We’ve bundled a default theme, but you can always install some other compatible themes or upgrade your existing WordPress theme.

What changes do I need to make to get rid of this message.

Thanks in advance.

ok. I wanted to see if the problem is here (. htaccess). I think yes. Pay attention to punctuation.

back copies blogs.php
put
RewriteRule ^(.*/)? /(.*) wp-content/blogs.php files? File = $ 2 [L]
and see if there avatars

You’ll want to run the BP Template Pack plugin to make your WordPress theme compatible with BP: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/

.htaccess
RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

just by looking at the source code (in this case open up bp-core.php and you’ll see where bp-custom.php is referenced prior to the adminbar code) + another great plugin if you have a development setup -> https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-hook-sniffer/

@r-a-y and anyone else who contributed to the patch.

Thanks!

Hi.
The right way to do this (as i have heard)
https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/
If you use this method you have full control over styling and it works perfect.
@mikepratt gave this tips in this presentation that i think is a awesome. Check it out here
