Is the “Join Group” in the group directory listing a standard feature or is it an addon? If it’s an addon. can someone please kindly point me in the right direction? Thanks. I’m currently using the “Speed” template. I’ve set up a subscriber account to test the theory that I was only seeing it from an admin point of view to no avail. As a general subscriber, this is what I see for public groups: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/1RAdu.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/1RAdu.png</a> This is taken while logged in. No “join group” button there. I looked at the markup and didn’t even see any info there either. Unfortunately, I’m rather new to Buddypress so finding the right hooks for this in the default template is kinda flying over my head…. Basically, none of my users are able to join the Public groups unless they're invited. Thanks for your help. milo on "group image cropping not working" http://forum.milo317.com/topic/group-image-cropping-not-working#post-1766 Mon, 27 Sep 2010 08:20:18 +0000 milo 1766@http://forum.milo317.com/ Pls post an url where I can see the theme loaded, theme version also post all your plugins running, ty.

When I upload an image to create a new group, the image appears to upload correctly but then I am prompted to crop it. No matter where or how I set up the crop the image is cropped randomly and shows only a very small section. Do you know what's happening and how to fix it? Or - is there any way to set up a choice to not crop? Right now it give no choice for not cropping. widget image sizes Can you tell me where I would find the file that governs the images sizes found in widgets. For instance, the groups widget and members widget display images that are too small. I'm using the Bruce theme. milo on "no readme file" http://forum.milo317.com/topic/no-readme-file#post-1196 Tue, 05 Jan 2010 02:15:54 +0000 milo 1196@http://forum.milo317.com/ Just upload big reso size of 500px images, also one thread per theme per user, pls do not open multiple threads for one theme. marywald on "Stumped on the glider" http://forum.milo317.com/topic/stumped-on-the-glider#post-1194 Mon, 04 Jan 2010 12:36:53 +0000 marywald 1194@http://forum.milo317.com/ Hi never mind, figured it out! marywald on "Stumped on the glider" http://forum.milo317.com/topic/stumped-on-the-glider#post-1193 Mon, 04 Jan 2010 06:06:22 +0000 marywald 1193@http://forum.milo317.com/ Milo can you tell me how to remove the author's name on the glider on the home page? -- <a href="http://www.thecommunity.com/wpmu" rel="nofollow">http://www.thecommunity.com/wpmu</a> My titles were being cut off so I set the overflow on .glidecontenttoggler .fet in the stylesheet to visible to get the whole titles.

And I also finally figured out what the options page is you were talking about -- in themes on the dashboard. I also found in playing around with it that if I put the big image in an excerpt I can put the smaller image in the post and it grabs the big one for the slider on the home page. Am I right in assuming that the smaller images, the ones that are about 200 x 50 px, are just meant to grab a part of the image? We aren't meant to create images for this size? Great theme by the way.

Maybe I'm not experienced enough in this area, but it doesn't look very self-explanatory. I am first trying to figure out how to set up the images for the slider/articles/smaller banners. it looks like the slider needs an image that's about 435 px across, I use a 200-240 px image in my posts, and there is a smaller banner that is about 200 px across. Do I need to use custom fields to have the theme grab the right images? And if so what do I name the fields?

One question if I may - In order to make the "Sign up" and "Login" buttons in the header visible one must tab through the user id and password fields.

The site is located at <a href="http://www.athlonecommunityradio.ie" rel="nofollow">http://www.athlonecommunityradio.ie</a> This, as the name suggests is a local community radio station although the theme is of course really for a magazine. But with a small mod to vid.php I have placed a link to stream audio, rather than display a magazine cover image. So that's a hack, but for our needs it's fine, as the functionality for building blogs, forums etc remains ideal. Our aim is to empower both radio presenters and their listeners to interact as much as possible, as well as to attract advertisers eventually and become a focal point for our community on the web. So far, just a couple of people have registered. They are testing it from an end-user perspective and are beginning to provide feedback on what they like/dislike. The most pressing issue right now is that the sign up button is not evident when the main site index is loaded. I think you will see the issue when you visit the site. As a workaround, I used an HTML widget to link to the register page. It's quite exciting as this is a completely new install, and we are free to do as we wish, so I would be more than happy to keep you informed as how it is received by the public. I'm on Skype multiple IM's, but maybe I'm getting ahead of myself :-) In conclusion I thank you again for the theme, and I can really appreciate all the work that has gone into it. My hat's off to you! - Tom
