    Hi guys,

    Firstly thanks for reading. So I made my website and added buddypress and I got to the part where I need to tweak my layout but have no idea what to do! Unfortunately my knowledge of coding is minimal so any “advice for dummies” is ideal for me.

    Here’s a link to the profile http://allthingsbetting.co.uk/members-3/admin/ as you will see, it’s pretty close but not quite right!

    Let me know if you need any other info!

    Thanks in advance :-)

    P.S My theme is the arras theme.

    == My theme is the arras theme. ==

    @allthingsbetting You could copy over some of the style mods to twenty ten theme to the bottom of your theme’s stylesheet then adjust to taste – esp `div.item-list-tabs` and `div#subnav.item-list-tabs` where you have to bring in the negative margins which expand the width of those navigation items.

    Add also the following to your style.css
    `div.padder {
    background: #fff none;
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
    margin: 0 10px 15px 0;
    padding: 0 15px;
    }`

    Plus some unsolicited advice – you have URL’s with members-3/ and groups-2/ which is not cool. Back up DB.
    Delete the current Pages “Members” and “Groups”. Go to trash and delete all “Members” and “Groups” Pages > Permanently. Go create new Members and Groups pages. You’ll see clean members/ and groups/ url’s

    @mercime Hi,

    Thanks for your reply :-) I have copied the whole lot of those style mods over and changed a few of the minuses to, for example, 0 but to no avail so far! Unless it hasn’t updated on my laptop?

    If you still see the overlaps on the website, do you have any recomendations of how much to change the numbers by?

    Thanks for the heads up about the URLs I will sort that.

    Thanks very much

    You need to add the `div.padder` style I posted above if you want your BP pages to look like the rest of the site. You haven’t added the styles from Twenty Ten which brings in the widths of `div.item-list-tabs` and `div#subnav.item-list-tabs`

    Use Firefox and install Firebug add-on and you’ll be able to ID the areas you need to change.
