Problems with TopBar

  • @flopfeil

    Participant

    Hey guys!
    I have problems with my TopBar I use the Kleo Theme and build a site.
    I figured out that I got a wrong Topbar at the buddypress part of my sites.
    Aksing in the Support of the Theme and at the WordPress.org Support didn’t help.
    Finally they send me here.

    So I explain again.
    My site have a Navibar and a topbar. On the most sites it looks pretty and the way I want it to look. Only on the Buddypress sites “notifications”, “messages” and “activity” it overwrites my topbar and put there the content from my navibar. So I have the content twice. If I deactivated the Buddypress Plugin the sites shows an error, thats ok, but there is the right topbar. So the problem is with the plugin but cant figure out what went wrong.

    What can I do?
    What can you recommend me to do?

    Can you post a screenshot of how you think the site should look, and a screenshot of what you see as a problem. I have access to the Kleo theme, and some experience of customizing the WordPress toolbar.

    thats the site, it only shows up fpr logged in user.
    After creating an account you can click on several links in the topbar all the buddypress links are messed up. For example “Nachrichten” from the dropdown menu.
    Stick for a while with this problem and nobody can handle it.
    I ask the theme support and the wordpress support weeks ago.

    From what I can see on a clean install of Kleo/Buddypress, the Top Bar has a menu location assigned to it in WP admin called ‘Top Menu’. This works the same as any other WordPress menu meaning you can add or remove items from that menu.

    In WP admin go to Appearance > Menus and select Top Menu. Under Screen Options (top right) ensure the Buddypress box is ticked (allows you to assign Buddypress links to any menu). You should be able to remove the links you don’t want to show from that menu, then save it.

    If you installed Kleo with the demo data it might be the case that these links were automatically added. But you should be able to remove them to your liking. There’s nothing going on here that Buddypress is automatically doing itself when it’s enabled.

    Thanks for your help, but its not the solution.

    My TopMenu got the content you see on that screen.

    http://www.pic-upload.de/view-28637544/Top_normal.jpg.html

    I try to explain my problem better.

    The TopMenu works when the Buddypress Plugin is deactivated. Its on all Sites that Menu I want to have.
    After I activate the Plugin on some of the sites(Buddypress specific sites) changes the TopMenu and show the content from the NavigationBar.

    So I think there is a piece of code in any PHP-File which overwrites my TopMenu.

    Any ideas???

    I’ve looked again in Kleo theme options, I can’t see anything that would cause this. It really needs support from the theme author – http://seventhqueen.com/support/forums/forum/kleo

    i ask there weeks ago. the only comment i got was look if your theme is updated.

    is here anybody who knows where buddypress established the topmenu?
    if i check the to different sites with my inspector tool, i can see he loads the mainmenu and not the topmenu. So i want to know in which php.file buddypress establish the topmenu.

    on the sites where it shows up the right topbar it looks like…

    <div class=”social-header header-color”>
    <div class=”container”>
    <div class=”top-bar”>
    <div id=”top-social” class=”col-sm-12 col-md-5 no-padd”> </div>
    <div class=”top-menu col-sm-12 col-md-7 no-padd”>
    <ul id=”menu-topmenu” class=””>

    and on the other sites, where i have the wrong menu….

    <div class=”social-header header-color”>
    <div class=”container”>
    <div class=”top-bar”>
    <div id=”top-social” class=”col-sm-12 col-md-5 no-padd”> </div>
    <div class=”top-menu col-sm-12 col-md-7 no-padd”>
    <ul id=”menu-mainmenu” class=””>

    so there must be any code from buddpypress which put here the mainmenu.

    Did anyone know where i can change that part of code?

    there is something new I found out. May be it helps somebody to find the solution.

    If I go to Appearance and deselect both menus the Primary Menu and the Top Menu. The TopMenu
    is gone but the Primary Menu is still there how can it be???

    So something must overwrite that part with my menu.

    What can I do?

    FINALLY after around nearly 3 weeks I have the solution found by myself.
    May be somebody got this problem too, so here is the fact why i donΒ΄t work for me.

    I called my Menu –> “MainMenu” this must be any reserved codeword. Every language got some of these. So he overwrite the buddypress topbar with this.
    I created the same menu and give it another name. Now it works!!!
