Fixing Alignment

    Hi,

    I’m having a few issues with BP alignment with my theme. I’ve searched the forum and found the guide, so I FTP’d my theme and opened the pages i need to modify with the new HTML structure.

    I don’t really know where to to start. I can obviously see where

    `<div id=”container”>

    <div id=”content”>`

    is, but i’m not sure where the point at which sidebar content etc begins, i’ve had a scan and can’t see anything. I’m pretty sure if I can sort one page i can sort them all as i’m presuming its basically the same mods on every page. If anybody could help then id be massively appreciative. Also, if needed i can PM you details of the site if you need to have a look yourself.

    Again, thanks a million if anybody can help :)

    Graeme

    What alignment are you having trouble with?

    As for finding everything, if you haven’t already installed Firefox+Firebug, do that now. Firebug is super handy for browsing sites and debugging layout issues.

    Done using firebug with your website

    Try replacing this

    <div id="container">
    
<div id="content">

    with this

    <div id="container">
    
<div id="content">
    
<div class='box box_medium box1'>

    You need to do this to all the pages below, plus any plugin pages that are added.

    * /activity/index.php

    * /blogs/index.php

    * /forums/index.php

    * /groups/index.php

    * /groups/create.php

    * /groups/single/home.php

    * /groups/single/plugins.php

    * /members/index.php

    * /members/single/home.php

    * /members/single/plugins.php

    * /registration/register.php

    * /blogs/create.php

    * /registration/activate.php

    The above code hasn’t changed anything.

    This issue appears in the pages listed above, as the sidebar has been moved to below the content. I’ve created an account where you can go in and see the issue for yourselves, as I don’t think you’d be able to see it otherwise.

    user: test

    password: test

    Thanks for the help so far, even if it hasn’t worked out I still appreciate it :) If you could go in and have a nosey that would be great :)

    You need to assign a width to your content or muck around with floating your sidebar the way the bp-default theme does it.

    Look at the styling for div#content .padder and #sidebar in the bp-default theme’s default.css. That should help you float your sidebar back into the right place.

    Or just load firebug on the testbp.org website and see how it’s floating #sidebar into place by changing the margin of the #content .padder.
