Calling Loop in custom Page template?

Hi,

Currently using the most up to date versions of BP and WP.

I am trying to call the loop on a custom page template but seem to be having problems, I can’t query up the loop!

I am using this guide – http://www.onextrapixel.com/2011/02/21/using-wordpress-custom-template-to-create-layout-with-different-sidebar/comment-page-1/#comment-17524

It works without buddypress on regular wordpress themes. I would imagine I am just not referencing correctly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

also this isn’t a MS or MU site… Just a single blog

It would help if you showed what you had attempted rather than link to a guide for WP templates, then someone will be able to spot where you are going wrong, also tell us what loop you are trying to query and output.

thanks for the response! I just want the regular loop, I am going to add Thumbnails to it like in the guide above. Here is what I’ve been using, like i said it works on non bp themes perfect without bp installed. The first part works, but not the query for the loop

`<?php
/*
Template Name: blog_in_blog
*/

get_header(); ?>

<?php // get the content of our "my blog page"
if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

<div id="post-” >

<?php
query_posts(‘posts_per_page=3’);
rewind_posts();

get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘archive’ );
?>

`

Thanks again

You’re not calling any BuddyPress-specific tags in that code sample, so you might have better luck asking for support on the WordPress.org forums. However, you say that you “can’t query up the loop!” What output are you getting, and what output do you expect?
