BuddyPress.org

I’ve been working on my theme development and got the basic styling pretty much where I want it. Now I’m trying to make some adjustments to the user profile page, like removing the @ from in front of the user name. I’ve tried making a copy of member-header.php and placing that in my theme directory to no avail. I’ve also tried editing the same file located in vwrx-theme\bp-themes\bp-default\members\single\ still with no luck.

How can I achieve this? I’d like to make some other changes to buddypress, like displaying a users posts/uploaded photos in a gallery etc on their profile. Is there any recommended plugin or way to achieve these goals.
