The image is not from the profile area. Its from the groups page.

http://yourwebsite.com/groups/

You can’t create a new group from the profile area. You can only view what groups the person is a member of and group requests if its your profile.

I think this is your issue 🙂 And now going back and reading your original question, it is. Sorry.

Without digging into the code you can put some reorder code in your childs functions.php file. There’s a ton of posts about it if you google it.

http://blog.maximusbusiness.com/2013/04/bp-profile-nav-positions-names/

You’ll have to override the css using your childs style.css file to change the icons. I’m pretty sure its using fontello icons, so just figure out which the icon code you want to change it to, or specify your own.

This would change the activity icon to an upload icon

COPY CODE

#buddypress div#item-nav ul #activity-personal-li a:before, #buddypress div#item-nav ul #home-groups-li a:before {
  content: "\E84D";
}

This will change it to your gravtar 🙂

COPY CODE

#buddypress div#item-nav ul #activity-personal-li a:before, #buddypress div#item-nav ul #home-groups-li a:before {
  content: url(http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/80a2e1d15672dff15d528369d607005d?s=60&d=retro&r=G);
}

As far as putting icons under the + more icon, that is determined by screen size. There’s no “put this icon under there’ code. Its automagically starts stacking the last icon under there when the screen width is reduced. Try changing your browser width to see what I’m talking about. So, basically, the ones you want to move under there should be put at the end of the nav menu when you figure out the reordering.

I dont work here, I’m just bored. Good luck.

I figured it out. Buddypress is assigning the ‘hidden’ class to the ”li”. Since this theme uses bootstrap is hiding the “li” after page load. You can tell because your group count will be different from the displayed number of groups if hidden groups exist.

Anyhow, I had to override the .hidden class

COPY CODE

#groups-list, .hidden {
	display: inherit !important; 
	visibility: visible !important;
}

My other installed themes showed the hidden groups, even when using bootstrap because they set their own classes on the “li”.

No problem. As far as buddy blog goes, I didnt play with it too much and have decided not to use it for now. I’ve decided that I’m only going to allow a select few members make blog posts. The developer is a cool dude. Check out his support forum.

@chapterr you’ll need to edit the /page-parts/post-content-masonry.php file and save it to your childs theme.

The part you need to edit is the aq_resize call. They have it set to

COPY CODE

$image = aq_resize( $img_url, 480, 9999, null, true, true );

I changed to

COPY CODE

$image = aq_resize( $img_url, 480, null, true, true, true );

Keep in mind that the hassle that comes with modifying core files. After upgrades you’ll have to see if they added/changed any code to those files. If they have, you’ll have to include their changes into your child page. Not a huge deal, but not for the person who wants hassle free updating.

I just thought of something. If you dont want to enable the admin toolbar, you can try using Buddypress Live Notification plugin. I have it running on 2 of my sites. The idea behind it is that it will update the notification count in the admin toolbar without a page refresh (which is useless if you dont enable the admin toolbar) AND it will flash a notification message (similar to facebook) on the users screen. The notification doesnt live very long so they may miss it if they are in another window, but it gets you closer to what you’re after. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-live-notification/

Enable the admin toolbar is your only option for that. And to be honest this is true with every buddypress theme I’ve played with except one. That’s why I came up with the hack. Here’s a link to it, but again, I caution you against using it based on your experience.

I’m just a regular user like you so I cant see private messages.

These are reasons why it might be happening. Some of these are obvious, so please dont take offense. Its just hard to help blindly…

Have you tried different browers?
Are you logged into the site?
Can you create groups using the admin (admin->groups)?
Here’s where the link should be: https://24.media.tumblr.com/86c8fc106dedbccd8e9d83157e231344/tumblr_n22mxd9dJL1squolvo1_1280.jpg
Maybe you changed your link colors and its actually there but you cant see it because its the same color as the background?

That’s all I got.

Also, adding the buddypress friends link to the menu probably isnt going to give you what you are after, if you’re looking for some type of notification (alert) that someone has sent you a friend request. All it will do is provide a link to your friends section in your profile (from there you can see requests).

I could be wrong but if you are looking for some type of alert/notification, at present that’s only available with the Admin Toolbar enabled Admin->Theme options->Miscellaneous.

I hacked my site so that the notification bubble is displayed in the menu since I dont like the Admin Toolbar, but I wouldnt recommend implementing it if you are not familiar with php and buddypress.

At the top of almost every page in the admin, you’ll see a link “screen options”. Make sure Show on screen: Buddypress is enabled. Once that’s done, you’ll see a option for Buddypress sections on the left hand side that you can add to your menus.

I’m pretty sure that theme_location is looking for the LOCATION of the menu, not the name. When you set up the menu, at the bottom you can specify “Primary Menu” or “Top Menu”. If you look at the html for those radio buttons, they are either ‘top’ or ‘primary’. Try it with just “top” instead of “top-menu”. This is just a guess man. Good luck.

You’re not annoying, but I was just sharing what I did. I’m under a deadline to launch this site so unfortunately dont have time to sort that out for you.

Do a search for a way to determine which menu is being displayed by the name you’ve given it and add that condition to the code.

Looks like you copied the code from the start of the thread where I was using the code wrapper ad it was removing some of the code. Here it is again

COPY CODE

add_filter('wp_nav_menu_items','add_notification_to_custom_menu', 2, 2);

function add_notification_to_custom_menu( $items, $args ) {
	$notifications = bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() );
	$count         = ! empty( $notifications ) ? count( $notifications ) : 0;
	if ($count > 0 ) {
		$alert = 'alert';
		$pending = 'pending-count';
	} else {
		$alert = 'no-alert';
		$pending = 'count';
	}
	return $items."<li id='menu-bp-notifications' class='menupop'><a href='".bp_loggedin_user_domain()."notifications/'><span id='ab-pending-notifications' class='" . $pending . " " . $alert . "'>".$count."</a></li>";
    
	return $items;
}

EDIT: The code is still getting cut off. Make sure you have a closing li at the end of the long $items var.

Go to groups (yourwebsite.com/groups) Next to the title at the top you’ll see a ‘create group’ icon. If you dont, make sure you have ‘user groups’ turned on in your buddypress components (admin->settings->buddypress). If you still dont see it and you’re not logged on as Admin, then make sure ‘group creation’ is turned on in buddypress settings.

THIS IS OLD INFORMATION. THE NOTIFICATION BUBBLE IS NOW IN KLEO. DO NOT USE THIS CODE

You should read up on child theme’s. They are important.

Basically a child them lets you override settings of the main theme and keep those changes safe from theme updates. If you were to put my hack in the main theme function.php file, you’d lose it when you apply an update.

In the zip file you downloaded for the theme, there should be two theme zip files in the wordpress folder. You should have installed kelo.zip first. Then if you installed kleo-child.zip and activated that as your theme, you’d have a child theme to put your hacks in. (simple terms… install both themes and activate the child theme.)

Once you’ve done that, you can add your hacks. In the admin, go to Appearance -> Editor. On the right hand side, click on Theme Functions (functions.php). Below the ‘add custom code below’ put this: (NOTE: If you dont see ‘Kelo Child’ selected in the upper right hand corner where it says ‘Select theme to edit’ then stop. You probably dont have the child them active. Go back to the beginning.)

COPY CODE

/**
* notifications
**/
add_filter('wp_nav_menu_items','add_notification_to_custom_menu', 2, 2);

function add_notification_to_custom_menu( $items, $args ) {
	$notifications = bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user( bp_loggedin_user_id() );
	$count         = ! empty( $notifications ) ? count( $notifications ) : 0;
	if ($count > 0 ) {
		$alert = 'alert';
		$pending = 'pending-count';
	} else {
		$alert = 'no-alert';
		$pending = 'count';
	}
	return $items."<li id='menu-bp-notifications' class='menupop'><a href='".bp_loggedin_user_domain()."notifications/'><span id='ab-pending-notifications' class='" . $pending . " " . $alert . "'>".$count."</a></li>";
    
	return $items;
}

Click ‘Update File’

Now, to style the bubble, click on ‘Stylesheet’ on the right hand side.

Put this in there.

COPY CODE

#ab-pending-notifications {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #ddd;
    border-radius: 10px;
    color: #FFFFFF;
    display: inline;
    font-size: 10px;
    font-weight: bold;
    padding: 2px 5px;
    text-shadow: none;
}

#ab-pending-notifications.alert {
    background-color: #1FB3DD;
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

Click ‘Update File’.

That should do it. Now, you may have to change the colors of the bubble to suit your site. These will not change automatically using the Theme setting editor. The two colors you’ll have to adjust in the CSS are ‘#ddd’ (no notification) and #1fb3dd (has notification).

This should work, though this code alone will not live update the notification bubble. That’s a bit more advanced. It will however update the notification count on each page refresh. Mine live updates, so let me know if these doesnt work for you without the live update code.

Good luck my friend and do yourself a favor and read up on child themes.
