Hi,
I am trying to add a jQuery script to my page. I am using the Buddypress default theme which seems to have the latest version of jQuery included.
I am then wanting to include a backgroundPosition.js script and a small script that handles an animation on my navigation items:
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
$j(function() {
$j(".bottom").hover( function () {
$j(this).animate( {
backgroundPosition : '0px 35px'}
, 300); }
, function () {
$j(this).animate( {
backgroundPosition : '0px 0px'}
, 600); }
);
}
);
At the moment I have included the backgroundPosition script after wp_head(); in my header.php as follows:
and then I have the above script below this. jQuery and the backgroundPosition script are successfully included on the page, but I see no animation, as I do when I use this script on non-Wordpress pages.
Could someone advise as to the best way of getting this to work?
Thanks,
Nick
@nickbaer as original poster, you can mark (edit) this topic as resolved. Before activating BuddyPress in your permanent domain, make sure that your WordPress is working as expected. If you have any issues regarding the migration, do post at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
I’m testing BP 1.6 SVN for a new site I’m developing. I can’t update my status, add friends, or do anything that seems to rely on AJAX calls it seems. In my Javascript console I’m seeing the following error:
Uncaught ReferenceError: BP_Theme is not defined

To be considered in your decision-making, Group Forums will be migrated over to Sitewide Forums come BP 1.7 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3598 so personally, I would opt for #3 or wait for BP 1.7
You’re welcome
== the defalt doesnt look so great for that. ==
The bp-default theme can be tweaked to look like a gaming theme if you know some CSS/HTML at the very least. Change background color to dark/black, add some silver/gold medals/otherstuff with some cool header font/s and you’re good to go.
Or, you could always download a regular WordPress theme with the look you want. Then you will only have to install/activate BP Template Pack plugin and go through the Appearance > BP Compatibility process. We have a list of template-packed WP theme to date https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
I just checked your site. There’s only one navigation menu in your installation, the main navigation under the site title. Aside from that, you’re using the Suffusion theme which is a theme framework supported readily by the theme author. I suggest that you post this question at the Suffusion theme forums or at https://wordpress.org/tags/suffusion
== when I Push Register – it only takes me to the home page of the wordpress installation. ==
This happens when you’re already logged in and try to register. So Log out frst.
Codebase of WPMU aka WordPress MultiUser was merged with that of core WordPress in version 3.0. Since then, you only need to “Create a Network” from a single WP to go multisite. You only create a network (whether BP is installed or not) when you want to give your users the ability to create a blog in your multisite installation. Otherwise, stay on single WP.

Hey – I just installed the buddypress plugin and det bbpress.
when I Push Register – it only takes me to the home page of the wordpress installation.
The Register-page is automatically made during the installation so I know that it is there.
When I go to pages and push the view page button under register it takes me to http://pomeranianklubben.no/ – which is the main page. So something is not right.
Can you please help me…
I have tried to delete the Register page and made a new – no luck
Multi-domain isn’t built into WordPress, so how can BuddyPress know what domains it could use or make available (in a drop down box, for example)?
Excellent spot, thanks for recreating.
Would you post this as a bug on https://buddypress.trac.WordPress.org please? You can use your username and password from this site.
== The extra classes are gone now, but the menu is still showing up as a bullet list. ==
The menu was never rendered as bullet list so I don’t understand what you mean that it “is still showing up as bullet list.” The latest version of Frisco theme is version 1.5.04 so do make sure that’s the version you’re using.
Also, make sure that you didn’t delete anything from the navigation menu in your theme’s header.php. You can compare it with theme’s original header.php file – https://themes.svn.wordpress.org/frisco-for-buddypress/1.5.04/header.php
If you made any changes to the stylesheet, then re-upload theme’s original style or copy over . https://themes.svn.wordpress.org/frisco-for-buddypress/1.5.04/style.css
Hi Aces, thanks for the advice, I think I found the real problem, and I´ll call it ¨Bluehost¨, I use their hosting service and have several problems (everytime I use a new theme something is not working)….I may have to find a hosting service that is real friendly with wordpress because not all of them are optimized….
@karmatosed
thanks this theme looks great, i test it out just to try it out but some how the background image/background color/ color links dont seem to work? at all.. im running buddypress 1.5.5 and wordpress 3.3 but it seems the theme works great no fatal errors nothing which i think its weird also another thing i wanted to ask you is there a way i can easily show the background color/ background image in different parts of the profile example like in the profile header box like below
`
body.user-profile-header{
background:();
}
`
@mercime
i have surely looked into that but for me its hard to add color picker functionally and stuff and set user id sava data so its best to have a live sample already created so i can start from it and tweak it,
but either way thanks for the help.
You’re welcome 
Thank you for marking this as resolved.
That took care of the issue. I was confusing the current bbPress forum with the BP forum. Thanks for the reply.
I make a wordpress site and later i install buddypress, In the members page there appears the numbers of registeres users, but doenst appear the list of users…
Here is the web…

I have just installed the buddypress plug in on my wordpress site, I went through all of the initial set up menus and clicked save and continue when I hadn’t selected the correct theme for the WP theme I am using. Now I cannot go back and select the correct theme to integrate BP with my WP theme.
My question is, is there a way to change the BP theme I am using? When I do into the WP admin and click BP, I get only a few options and no theme change options.
I have tried to uninstall BP and re install but it remembers the saved options previous.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
i have been working in localhost URL is like: http://abcdev.arn/dcomm (i installed wordpress under this folder, and i installed BP, BB press plugins only. Theme is buddypress default theme).
I created 1 menu, 4 cusom categories (for my specific purpose). After installing BP, i got a message like—->: “BuddyPress is almost ready. You must update your permalink structure to something other than the default for it to work.”
If i change the permalink to other structure, my custom categories are redirects to error page. But the BuddyPress links are redirecting to error pages in either case!!
On top of the home page i can see “login”, “sign up” links. login is working fine but sign up is giving error like —> “The requested URL /dcomm/register/ was not found on this server.”
Please ask me for any other details you require..
Thanks,
Chenna
hi i have create a community by using buddypress. but i am in problem. i want to manage buddypress navigation bar. which have these pages My Home , my profile etc..
actully i want to put these two pages My Home , my profile in main navigation bar. so that user can access his profile from main navigation bar.
i try to edit by creating menu but in menu i can see only wordpress’s pages. i can not find that pages.
so please guide me about this thank you
Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your wp-clearvideo 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:
`
<?php
global $wp_query;
$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;
if ( get_post_meta( $postid, ‘post_featpages’, true ) == “Yes” ) { ?>
<?php if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) { yoast_breadcrumb('
‘,’
‘); } ?>
<div class="post clearfix" id="post-main-“>
`
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 //
`, just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.
Save files.
WordPress comes with a up to date version of jQuery. BuddyPress works with it. Maybe track down where your site is loading an old version of jQuery, and kill it.
@subway1968 If you do not need Group Forums, you can go to dashboard menu BuddyPress > Components and deactivate (uncheck) “Discussion Forums”
