1) What version of bp?
2) Are you using the bp home theme?
Any widget will work in the bp home theme. It’s just a normal wp theme that has places to stick widgets. You can download any number of widgets from the wp plugins directory to place in those widget enabled areas.
The bp home theme displays the recent blog posts for the main blog, if that is where it’s running, under the ‘News’ button.
Yea im using the bp home theme and changing it around to suit the style of my website.
Is it possible to display the recent posts of the main blog without the use of the widget. If that makes sense
