Installation problems

Hello, I’ve had a good look in this forum but I don’t see the exact problem I’m having.

I have an existing wordpress site with a customised theme. I have installed Buddypress as a plugin but the installation wizard does not show up on the top of the page and the set-up tabs are limited. Screen shot here http://tinypic.com/r/4iehkw/5

The permalink setting is custom

I thought I’d plough on ahead anyway so I installed Buddypress Template Pack to make it more compatible with the existing theme. It sort of worked. The pages – members, groups, activity – show within the existing template but no buddypress navigation shows so its impossible to use.

I’ve tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling but the installation wizard doesn’t show leaving the set-up incomplete.

I cant change the template prior to instal because this will mess with the entire existing site. Any help would be appreciated….

@shonesss WP/BP versions?

but the installation wizard does not show up

There is no longer an Installation Wizard since BP 1.7, so no worries.

As of BP 1.7, BuddyPress is compatible with nearly all WordPress themes, which means you do not need to install/activate the BuddyPress Template Pack plugin. https://codex.buddypress.org/bp-17-upgrading-template-packed-themes/

no buddypress navigation shows so its impossible to use.

Go to Appearance > Menus, then add the BuddyPress Pages to your custom menu.
