This is probably what you are looking to do for a full width template (start reading near the bottom from ‘Working With A Child Theme’ onwards):

Hope it helps.

Hi @aksdvp thanks for your reply.

I do have the htaccess file, currently in the location:
C:\xampp\htdocs\mywebsite

The code in that file reads:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mywebsite/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /mywebsite/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I have tried replacing the code above with yours (i.e. removing the mywebsite parts, then doing restart) but that doesn’t work. It creates more issues making the rest of the website inaccessible and showing Welcome to XAMPP pages…

Thanks

Managed to solve this:

function bp_main_nav_notification_bubble( $items, $args ) {
    if( $args->theme_location == 'header-menu' ) { // In manage locations via WP Dash>Appearance>Menus
    	$items_array = array();
        while ( false !== ( $item_pos = strpos ( $items, '<li', 3 ) ) ) {
            $items_array[] = substr( $items, 0, $item_pos );
            $items = substr( $items, $item_pos );
        }
        $items_array[] = $items;
        array_splice( $items_array, 3, 0, '<li class="bubble">' . bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( bp_loggedin_user_id() ) . '</li>' ); // 0,0 1st position, 1,0 2nd, etc
        $items = implode( '', $items_array );
    }
    return $items;
}
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'bp_main_nav_notification_bubble', 10, 2 );
