Adding Regististration and Login to a custom home page

    Hello Everyone,

    I have been working on a problem for a few days now and I am now requesting your help. I have read numerous posts and in concept I understand it but in execution I am having problems.

    PROBLEM:
    I have created and added a custom home page design but I want to add the login and registration to the home page. Here is my inspiration site http://www.virtuglobalinc.com/register/

    As per Jeff Sayre post, here are the details of what I am running. I am attempting to give you complete information so I can save your time and mine. Please bear with me.

    WP, BP, Theme Details
    I am running a clean install of wordpress 3.2.1 and buddypress 1.2.9 in my home directory. This site is running on a litespeed server in a cloud environment, VPS.net. I am creating a child theme from the default bp theme. Currently in my child theme I have the following files…

    * Footer (footer.php)
    * Header (header.php)
    * Home Page Page Template (idchome.php)
    * Single Post (single.php)
    * RTL Stylesheet (rtl.css)
    * Stylesheet (style.css)
    * styleHm.css (styleHm.css)

    Everything is a copy of the bp theme files except the idchome.php and the styleHm.css. Below I am posting the code for each of those files.

    HTML
    `
    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: Home Page
    */
    ?>

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

    I haven’t created any custom functions in the bp-custom.php I have 37 plugins installed and activated but I am not sure that this is important to the question that I am asking.

    Help Please, I am more of a html / css guy. The php and java stuff I am a newbie. Thanks

    Scott Whittle

    It appears that you’ve added a container div to hold the registration form, however, you have not added the code for the registration form itself:

    Sign up Form belongs Here!

    You could copy and paste into your #registerForm div the registration form code contained within the .padder div from bp-default/registration/register.php.

    This should put an embedded registration form into your home page.

    Hope that helps…
