Change page titles for Buddypress Groups / bbPress Forums

[Deesign]

Is it possible to change the page title and template setup for the below pages?

and we noted the groups page when active does not highlight the page nav button like the other pages do (even forums) is there an update/setting for that to display like the others do?

Hello @DeeDesign,

Thank you for the very detailed post information.

You can change all those BuddyPress related titles in X > Theme Options > BuddyPress > Component Titles and in X > Theme Options > BuddyPress > Sub Component Titles.

If you need anything else we can help you with, please let us know.

Perfect - thank you RueNel.

We’ve updated the titles of the pages successfully.

Can you point us in the right direction to understand why (and fix) the active nav button for Groups is not orange, but Member Directory and Forums is?

Can we remove the sidebar (update the page template for these two pages)?

Hi @DeeDesign,

Please also add this custom CSS:

.x-navbar .desktop .x-nav > .current_page_item > a {
    box-shadow: 0 2px 0 0 #d4947c;
}

Please navigate to X > Theme Options > bbPress & BuddyPress > change the layout to Fullwidth:

If you just want to change the layout of Groups and Forums pages, please add this custom CSS instead of changing under Theme Options:

body.groups .x-sidebar,
body.forum-archive .x-sidebar {
    display: none;
}

body.groups .x-main,
body.forum-archive .x-main {
    width: 100%;
}

body.groups .x-container.main:before,
body.forum-archive .x-container.main:before {
    display: none;
}

body.groups .entry-wrap,
body.forum-archive .entry-wrap {
    background: #fff;
}

Hope it helps

Thank you Thai!

I added color: white to your suggested the first nav button active css to achieve the same design as the others - worked perfectly, thank you.

.x-navbar .desktop .x-nav > .current_page_item > a {
box-shadow: 0 2px 0 0 #d4947c;
color: white; }

Everything else worked too - thanks again.
