@valuser Which wordstrap theme are you referring to? The issue could probably be due to how the page title is rendered by your theme. Is the theme using the_title or a theme-specific template tag?
If it’s a theme-specific template tag causing the issue, you can most possibly resolve this by creating a template specifically for the Groups Directory page which addresses the page title issue https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-compatibility-1-7/template-hierarchy/
Many thanks for your reply.
The theme is that at https://wordpress.org/themes/wordstrap
Have taken your advice and am almost there! (i think !)
I just have not altered the index.php file correctly – (your advice very welcome)
With an index.php file in directory —> themes/wordstrap/groups/index.php
(no change whatsoever if in themes/wordstrap/buddypress/groups/index.php)
see altered file at http://pastebin.com/VAfJAjbj
and a jpg of the result at https://i.imgur.com/7fRK8at.jpg (where within the content everything has floated left!).
Any advice most welcome
Please bear in mind primary purpose of support here isn’t providing solutions for third-party themes.
You’ll need to track down why it isn’t working, and as mercime suggests, create a custom override template for BP screens.
hnla, valuser and I are long-time acquaintances 😉
@valuser Could be the missing opening and closing divs. Not going to be as easy as BP template pack IMHO 🙂
We could try the alternative way for theme compatibility which is creating one file to take care of all the BuddyPress pages. So backup the buddypress/groups/index.php you made and delete the index.php along with the BP folders you created from your theme folder in server. Then create a file, buddypress.php and add http://pastebin.com/EsBMTpSG and upload this to the root of your theme folder in server i.e., wordstrap/buddypress.php
hi @valuser,
the bp_is_blog_page function is missing to hide the calendar when on BP pages.
The place with the weird output contains an overcomplicated method to show a title. IMHO there is no need to use so many conditionnals to show a post title…. So I replaced it by the h1 stuff used in Twenty Thirteen.
You will probably need some adjustment into CSS too. So far i can see there is no other trouble with BP. Nice theme !
remove/replace the following into /partials/part_article_header.php
<?php
// Article calendar
if ( bp_is_blog_page() ) : // if it returns true, it's not a BP page.
if (!is_page() && !is_search()) : ?>
<div class="calendar event_date">
<span class="month"><?php echo strtoupper(get_the_date('M')); ?></span>
<span class="day"><?php echo get_the_date('d'); ?></span>
<span class="year"><?php echo get_the_date('Y'); ?></span>
</div>
<?php endif;
endif; // ending bp_is_blog_page ?>
<h1 class="entry-title">
<?php if ( is_single() ) : ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
</h1>
