A great new feature with new buddypress to add cover image, so we updated to latest buddypress, released ~ 1 day ago. However now the profilepage seem a bit broken, unable to get to proper edition of profile picuture (as well as the new cover image feature) and lots of other thing.
We’ve tried disableing all other plugins (using it toghter with a RTmedia suite) and no differance so it seem to boil down to Newspaper beeing at fault. Any tests/input on compatibility with latest Buddypress?
Did some further investigation, and it seems to be problem when you enable the extended buddypress profile. Tried with 3 other theme’s and it worked fine on all of them, but not on NewsPaper.
Any input on this subjet? Managed to break it down to this, if you enable it (see attached image) the profile page breaks, cover image shows up but then everything else goes missing, menues, activity/wall etc rendering the page unusable. Tried 4 other themes now and they all have it show up correctly, so i’m pretty certain its down to something in Newspaper (as of yet we have no custom code/tweaks in newspaper).
Found the problem myself, the cover seem to float, so everything gets hidden underneath it, adding some styling to the buddypress item nav sorted it. Specificlly I added some top margin to line 24381 ##buddypress #item-nav.
Cheers for the rapid support… 😉
Hi,
Glad you solved it.
Have a nice day!
Actually that only paritally solved the problem.
When you’re logged in, and for example visit a friends page, so the extra menu for “unfriend” “message” and shows up the formatting is way off. There is a bit of mess there with that new feature from buddypress. Included a picture below. Its all working fine as long as you turn cover image off.
Hello,
The version of buddypress we have tested to work with our theme was the previous one that did not have this feature. We did not have the chance to test the new version with our theme so problems such as this could occur.
I will add this problem to our list and hopefully in our next update we will be able to implement a solution for it. This seems like a css issue, and maybe it can be adjusted until the next update. Please provide a link to your website (pointing at the problem itself) so we can inspect it.
Thank you for your understanding.
Unfortunately i cannot access the website. Incorrect password.
I updated it some secons ago I typed in the wrong one…sorry. Also I might have been logged in adding a friend so you can see the box, the pass in the post above is correct now, I tried it. If you go members in the top menu you see a list, picking “peter blom” wich is a friend you can se the odd box behavior (or any of the others that’s listed as friends.
I’ll add it again here as well

Hello,
You can use this custom CSS in the theme panel-> custom css box for the moment.
@media (min-width:1019px){
#buddypress div#item-header #item-header-cover-image #item-header-content {
margin-left:0!important;
margin-right:0!important;
position:absolute!important;
top:145px!important;
}
}
@media (min-width: 783px) and (max-width: 1018px){
#buddypress div#item-header #item-header-cover-image #item-header-content {
margin-left:30px!important;
margin-right:0!important;
position:absolute!important;
top:145px!important;
}
}
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
Yes, its sorts it out somewhat, not ideal but it will have to do for now I guess. 🙂
Looking forward to the real NP theme update.
