sidebar float to the left under content after activating plugin?

witch theme you use ?
the plugin use the default template of buddypress, if you use a child theme other than Buddypress default theme, you must create a new templates files by starting from template of your current theme.

Thanks for replying back meg@info. I’m using suffusion far as creating new templates files, how would i go bout it? Do you have a direct email i could contact you on? Would i change the template files on bp wall template.php? what would i need to add?

hi,

The plugin use the default Buddypress Template, so if you use a child theme for buddypress, you must costumise the plugin template for your theme.

By copying /wp-content/plugins/buddypress-wall/includes/templates/bp-default/ to your WordPress theme you can override the template that comes with the plugin. The files template will be placed in the buddypress activity,groups and members directory.

9 template should be customised :

activity/activity-wall-loop.php
activity/entry-wall.php
activity/index-wall.php
activity/post-wall-form.php

groups/single/activity-wall.php
groups/single/home-wall.php

members/single/activity-wall.php
members/single/home-wall.php

For example, to update the activity/activity-wall-loop.php template,
open the template file in your favorite editor or IDE and open the template
activity/activity-loop.php (without -wall-) and replacing the template activity-wall-loop.php
by code from activity-loop.php and keeping only the bp-wall php code in the activity-wall-loop.php.

for example in activity-wall-loop.php, the
code

<?php bp_wall_load_sub_template( array( 'activity/activity-wall-loop.php' ) ); ?>

is used to load activity-wall-loop.php instead this code

<?php locate_template( array( 'activity/activity-loop.php' ), true ); ?>

used in the default buddypress template.

so you must replace the template content and keep the bp-wall script.

hey meg@info

Thanks for the reply. I need some help because I’m using suffusion which has a markup buddypress pack so its not using bp default. If i understood the above post, I replace the activity-wall-loop with the activity-loop.php and kept only the load sub template code. When i did that, i lost my activity stream and the side bar went in the middle of body.

I can get your personal [moderator note: please do not ask for contact details – keep the conversation in the forum] so i can converse a little with you?
