Issues displaying BuddyPress on my theme

  • @itslino

    Participant

    So I developed my own theme, and I added a custom menu sidebar for Mobile users or any display that is less that 780 pixels in width.

    So the site is wrapped around a container, and I am guessing this is culprit because when I use another theme the issue doesn’t happen. I was wondering if there was any way to manually place buddypress or if I can simply rename a div…. or any possible way of resolving this issue?

    Here’s the site I’m testing it on: Here

    Here’s a members page, see how it appears completely blank: Here

    Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

    have you looked into the codex area?
    ( https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/ )

    I have not yet begun to learn all that, so I can’t tell you anything about it.

    Themes and buddypress and me are a challenge to say the least.. especially if you mixin rtmedia plugin.

    Only thing I have been able to do is go back to the 2014 theme and try modding that.

    I’ve been looking at it, but I don’t see anything about manually adding buddypress or id/class names that BuddyPress relies on

    @itslino – yeah I don’t see much about them in there either – the theme docs are a mess here, and non-existent for 2015 theme as well.

    There was some site that listed a bunch of wordpress code and buddypress code – searchable and such, but I can’t .. wait I think it’s called hookr.io or something – found it – http://hookr.io/plugins/buddypress/#index=a if you type css in the filter box it limits what is displayed – it may help – but not sure. I have no idea how that works, if it’s up to date, and if all bp styling stuff actually has “css” in it’s tag or whatever.

    I guess you could change to 2014 theme and go to each page and right click property inspector and copy the css.. then put that into notepad and search for everything “buddypress” – at least that’s what I have been thinking about doing.. I think there is also some different styles with 2014 and 2015 depending on what screen size you are viewing with – so may hve to check various media queries.. no idea if there is a better way.

    I want to make some custom bp themes, but I can’t even get proper docs on working with latest / best coding practices with the wp default themes at the moment. There is some details on thesis.com err.. themeshaper.com – I think that stuff is out of date though –

    If you get it figured out I’d love to see some info put together on all this.

    @djsteveb It’s not that its a mess.
    I simply used the blankslate theme, then I wrapped the container within the wrapper to allow the menu css3 animation to work.

    BuddyPress is the only thing I’m having issues with, everything else works fine.
    I just can’t tell why buddypress can’t display profiles. So i simply disabled it and am now looking for an alternative.

    @djsteveb Fixed the issue, it turns out my page template was kinda messed up.
    I adjusted the missing scripts and now it works 100% fine.
