    Hi,

    i like to customize the header on all buddypress pages (profile / groups / members / activity). In detail i like to add a div after the header containing a geo my wp search form.

    Did search the web but nothing is working, in fact nothing changed. Did play around and edit different header files inside buddypress plugin folder hoping to find the right ones but nothing changed.
    Did then create folders and files in my child theme to override defaults but still nothing happens, even if i just add a simple <h3> tag.

    Can anyone help and tell me which are the right files to work with?

    Thanks in advance,
    Andi

    Hi Andi,
    Thank you for asking.

    1. To affect the layout globally, create a copy of your theme’s page.php and name it buddypress.php in the root of your current active theme. Now modify it and it will apply the changes on all BuddyPress pages.

    2. To overwrite specific BuddyPress page, please create a directory “buddypress” in your theme or child theme and then copy the respective files from the template pack you are using. For example I am assuming that you are using BP Legacy template pack and want to modify the header file for user, yu can copy plugin/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php to yourtheme/buddypress/members/single/members-header.php and modify.

    Same applies for all other files.

    Hope that helps.

    Regards
    Brajesh
