Sometimes I need to style everything that BuddyPress creates differently than regular WordPress stuff. For example, I might need to style all groups, forums, profile pages, etc. a certain way and have different styling for blogs and WordPress multi-site home pages.
My solution is to tap into the body_class() function and add a special class called, “buddypress” to all BuddyPress pages. Just add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:
// Add "buddypress" to body_class function if we are on a BuddyPress-generated page
add_filter('body_class','add_buddypress_body_classes');
function add_buddypress_body_classes($classes, $class) {
if (!bp_is_blog_page()) :
// add 'my-class' to the $classes array
$classes[] = 'buddypress';
// return the $classes array
return $classes;
endif;
}
Or if you need to target specific BuddyPress components, you can do it this way:
// Add "buddypress" to body_class function if we are on a BuddyPress-generated page
add_filter('body_class','add_buddypress_body_classes');
function add_buddypress_body_classes($classes, $class) {
if (
bp_is_profile_component() ||
bp_is_activity_component() ||
bp_is_blogs_component() ||
bp_is_messages_component() ||
bp_is_friends_component() ||
bp_is_groups_component() ||
bp_is_settings_component() ) :
// add 'my-class' to the $classes array
$classes[] = 'buddypress';
// return the $classes array
return $classes;
endif;
}
Hooray!
(Thanks to this thread for making me aware of the bp_is_blog_page function.)

How to Convert .aiff to .mp3 files via Command Line
Yesterday I ran into an issue where I needed to convert .aiff files to .mp3. DBPowerAmp was recommended to me as a paid GUI tool. But I wanted something more lightweight, since this is a task I rarely need to do (most of the time, I’m already in Logic Pro, and exporting is simple there).…
