Issue with BuddyPress pages and alignment
-
I am using WordPress 3.0.4 and have installed and followed the instructions for the plug-in “BuddyPress Template Pack”. I’m fairly sure I understand how to work with the placement of the <div> tags to incorporate the BuddyPress pages properly into my layout. However, no matter what I’ve tried, I can’t get the content to align properly.
If someone would please have a look at the code I post here and tell me if you it looks right I would appreciate it. I think the problem may be that my theme uses a <div> id of “content” and so does BuddyPress.
This first set of code is the BuddyPress Activity/index.php file
`<?php get_header() ?><?php if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>
<?php _e( ‘Site Activity’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php do_action( ‘bp_before_directory_activity_content’ ) ?>
<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>
<?php locate_template( array( ‘activity/post-form.php’), true ) ?>
<?php endif; ?><?php do_action( ‘template_notices’ ) ?>
-
<?php do_action( ‘bp_before_activity_type_tab_all’ ) ?>
- ” title=”<?php _e( ‘The public activity for everyone on this site.’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>”><?php printf( __( ‘All Members (%s)’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_total_site_member_count() ) ?>
- ” title=”<?php _e( ‘The activity of my friends only.’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>”><?php printf( __( ‘My Friends (%s)’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_total_friend_count( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) ?>
- ” title=”<?php _e( ‘The activity of groups I am a member of.’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>”><?php printf( __( ‘My Groups (%s)’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_total_group_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) ?>
- ” title=””><?php printf( __( ‘My Favorites (%s)’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_total_favorite_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) ?>
- ” title=”<?php _e( ‘Activity that I have been mentioned in.’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>”><?php printf( __( ‘@%s Mentions’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_loggedin_user_username() ) ?><?php if ( bp_get_total_mention_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) : ?> <?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>
<?php do_action( ‘bp_before_activity_type_tab_friends’ ) ?>
<?php if ( function_exists( ‘bp_get_total_friend_count’ ) ) : ?>
<?php if ( bp_get_total_friend_count( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) : ?><?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?><?php do_action( ‘bp_before_activity_type_tab_groups’ ) ?>
<?php if ( function_exists( ‘bp_get_total_group_count_for_user’ ) ) : ?>
<?php if ( bp_get_total_group_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) : ?><?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?><?php do_action( ‘bp_before_activity_type_tab_favorites’ ) ?>
<?php if ( bp_get_total_favorite_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php do_action( ‘bp_before_activity_type_tab_mentions’ ) ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php do_action( ‘bp_activity_type_tabs’ ) ?>
`
This second set is my theme’s page.php file
`<?php edit_post_link('Edit this Page','
‘,’‘); ?>
`
finally, this third set is the Activity/index.php file with both combined as I think proper. I’ve tried multiple slight variations of this to no avail.
`- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=””>
- <a href="” title=””><?php printf( __( 'My Favorites (%s)’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_get_total_favorite_count_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) ) ?>
- <a href="” title=””>

@mercime I just ran a compare in Notepad++ and I see what you did. I had tried that already as well
@cybersnac, that’s the way it should be done. See https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/
Also, BP Template Pack has not been updated since Feb. 2010. See following thread for @hotforwords‘ BP Template Pack update https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/buddypress-template-pack-and-buddypress-1-2-6-things-break-but-i-have-a-solution
@boonebgorges the text box area is only 25% on this page
why?I had to guess the URL as the edit link was obscured, but all’s fixed now
it annoys me so much that that is possible@mercime Basically the build of BuddyPress software on this website is pretty old. It has a bug where it doesn’t check for missing closing tags. As I have admin permission on the site, I went in and edited the post and corrected the markup. Don’t worry, this bug was fixed in the release versions of BuddyPress a few versions ago
@johnjamesjacoby has indicated that he going to update the WordPress and BuddyPress versions on the site this weekend. That will make things much better, though will inevitably involve some downtime whilst the upgrade is performed.
@djpaul understood. thank you.
@gunju2221 “Example of adding CSS directly to page via code no syntax” – looks good
