    hello,
    I just installed buddypress – I activated the plugin and installed the forum feature. After that the buddypress menu tree is below the footer of wp!!!!

    I have wp 3.0 running.

    You’ll need to add CSS to your theme to make it work. If you switch back to the BP-Default theme, I bet it works properly?

  • Profile picture of christian_gnoth christian_gnoth said 1 year, 6 months ago:

    i am using the default theme bp-default!!! but the menu ís left side below the wp footer.

  • Profile picture of christian_gnoth christian_gnoth said 1 year, 6 months ago:

    anyone an idea how I can fix that???

    Christian to troubleshoot something on your behalf you really need to provide something to go on i.e a link to the site or at the least some more detail on your setup; otherwise you are asking for people to guess at what’s wrong and generally that does not find favour amongst coders on tech forums.

    first I think that other may have the same problem. as I did not found it I posted it. As it only happens if the user is logged in, there is nothing what I can show.

    The description is clearly. The whole menu structure of the buddypress is below the footer. here the menu list:

    has anyone an idea

  • Profile picture of @mercime @mercime said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    That happens when there’s no <?php wp_footer(); ?>before the closing </body></html> in theme’s footer.php, But since you already mentioned that you’ve using bp-default theme (which you activated in Appearance > Themes) then lack of wp_footer is not the problem. Some thoughts:
    - Re-upload BuddyPress plugin files via FTP
    - Deactivate all plugins (including mu-plugins) except BuddyPress, and see if same behavior applies.

    edited your post mercime to correct / complete the backticks.

    Christian struggling to believe you still have an issue some 3 weeks on and that huge long list of links is a bit odd. The explanation that this is only apparent with logged in views is also odd, try and get your install to an absolute and clean bp-default with no modifications anywhere.

    Removing the wp_footer() call doesn’t cause any huge layout issues for me apart from knocking out the adminbar, it will be interesting to find out what the issue is.

  • Profile picture of @mercime @mercime said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    @hnla thanks, didn’t see that.

    Actually this could be a case of plugin like qTranslate which hooks into bp adminbar because similar issue happening in this other topic.

  • Profile picture of christian_gnoth christian_gnoth said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    thanks for the hints. qtranslate is not the problem, as i installed it just few days before.

    Here is user to login to the wp installation under http://it-gnoth.de

    user: wptest1
    passwd: wptest1

  • Profile picture of christian_gnoth christian_gnoth said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    hnla!

    this is the list of buddypress !!!! and they are only available to logged in users !!! how else you want see the wp-admin backend???

  • Profile picture of hnla hnla said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    Initially you referred to running the BP default theme when asked however the link doesn’t show this??!!

    Regardles of whether you think something is an issue please follow mercim’s request to deactivate all but BP plugin and ensure you are running the bp default theme.

  • Profile picture of christian_gnoth christian_gnoth said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    the login was not correct. please login to: http://buddypress.it-gnoth.de/ as there is the buddypress default theme active. in the wp-admin backend you can see that the buddypress forum menu tree is below the wp footer.

  • Profile picture of christian_gnoth christian_gnoth said 1 year, 5 months ago:

    as all other plugins are working correctly and their menus are integrated correctly into the wp.-admin menu area, the problem lies in the buddypress plugin!!!
