Customize built-in group widget? (4 posts)

    I have a site running with the latest versions of WP and BP. I am running the default theme for BP and have installed the plugins “Buddypress widget pack” and also “Tabbed widgets plugins”.

    The built-in group widget has a very nice tab layout which I would love to use on the plugins. Right now the group widget and plugin widget looks different like this: http://annchristine.dk/widgets.jpg

    Where do I find the code used for the layout of the group widget? And how do I change the tabs layout in the plugin?

    Thanks

    In general, you need to look in the wp-content/plugins folder to find the code for your widgets.

    The code for the built-in groups widget is in wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-widgets.php

    follow up: I took a look at the BuddyPress widget pack… that gives you widgets for member (popular, etc.) not for groups.

    To set the tab order in the tabbed widgets plugin, it looks like you can just do it from the widget’s admin panel… changing the tab from the dropdown.

    Unfortunately, the widget broke in my install, so I can test it.
