HELP! Buddypress/Platform theme Pages not aligned

so, I downloaded buddypress 1.5.3.1, installed and activated just fine. when I go to the pages for activity, groups and members there is absolutely nothing on the page, a white screen. I’m using the Platform theme version 1.4.2 which during installation said was compatible. The only plugins i’m using are Askimet 2.5.5, Breadcrumbs NavXt 4.0.1 and Twitter for WordPress 1.9.7. Anyone have any thoughts on how to get these pages working?

== I’m using the Platform theme version 1.4.2 which during installation said was compatible.==

That’s because the theme author tagged the theme “buddypress” which is misleading since the theme may be BP-friendly but it doesn’t contain any BuddyPress templates. You will need to install and activate BP Template Pack plugin and go through the BP Compatibility process to make your WP theme compatible with BuddyPress. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/

thanks @mercime, I did that and it fixed that problem but now I have another problem. activity/group/member pages are working but plugin is not playing nice with the sidebar. I tried the BP Compatibility process and step 3 just threw me for a loop, couldn’t figure it out. I’m not a programmer, I know enough to be dangerous, that’s it! How do I fix the sidebars on these pages?
