This might be more of a buddypress question than a newspaper question, but ima try here anyway –
Anyone know if there’s a way to move
this class —> “.wp-admin-bar-top-secondary” to basically be substituted for and replace
this class —> “.top-header-menu td_ul_logout sf-js-enabled” ?
Buddypress puts the avatar on the admin bar but I want the avatar and all the dropdown options on the newspaper topbar where it says ‘login/register’. I’m going to try messing with this CSS and core files but thought I’d try asking here as well. thanks.
Honestly how is this issue not even resolved? Buddypress are lazy idiots or what? I’ve seen this question 1000 times all over the internet, yet the solutions are few if any. Why are there TWO avatars? I think maybe for future updates Newspaper theme should look into making working with BuddyPress more seamless. Or I think Buddypress should update their software. Why on earth would any developer think having TWO admin bars and TWO avatar areas improve UX? They should be combined. Buddypress is a top 5 plugin, and yet this is a major oversight.
Hello,
Sorry but this is a default implementation from buddypress because not all themes have a top bar like our themes do. There are themes that do not have an extra bar besides the admin bar of wordpress. Unfortunately we cannot edit the plugin code in order to move the avatar and controls.
Maybe this will help though. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/which-part-to-move-after-we-remove-tool-bar/
Thanks.
Thank you for the response. Can you be more specific on what needs to happen. Is it a simple copy and paste job? I don’t understand how the #1 theme and a top 5 plugin aren’t compatible in this area, or there’s no ready made work-around. I can’t be the first guy to get annoyed at this. I’ve been at this ONE hang-up for days, and haven’t found a real solution, while my competitor website is kicking my A because he has buddypress and I don’t. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi,
I understand your frustration but these are 2 very different elements. The theme adds a top bar and wordpress ads another. Buddypress created their code to add the element to the wordpress top bar, not the theme top bar as buddypress is a plugin created specifically for wordpress not specifically to our theme. The implementation you need is to move the default buddypress element to a theme element. There is no pre-made solution for this. It will have to be made custom. We have not tested this so there is no simple copy paste solution I can provide. Customization services fall beyond what the theme support can offer you.
Thank you!
