Template Packs tab in admin not found #189

Hi,

While updating the plugin to the latest version (#98ac2141043bee0baaf02d6ae3fd35d1d2af7e55), the tab in the admin has disappeared, rending the template pack unusable.

I see that in this commit, the structure has changed to be more BuddyPress integrated. However, now, the install instruction and image are incorrect:

Once activated, this plugin will first create a new Admin tabs in the BuddyPress settings Template Packs. It displays a list of the available template packs for the site and it helped me to come back to Legacy while building the "BP Nouveau" one. This screenshot will explain itself what this UI could bring to the user...

While before, I could easily switch between template packs, now, I cannot activate the Next template pack, and so this template pack is rendered useless.

I have tried figuring out what bp_register_theme_package does, and how it should work with BuddyPress. It looks like a specific template directory structure has to be copied into the buddypress directory of the active (current) theme. So far, that has been unsuccessful.

Am I doing something wrong, should I enable something? And, could you please update the README, so it is up to date with the latest change of the plugin.

Thanks

Edwin

The template pack tab was removed sadly in favour of a simple select option on the general options tab, you may need to visit and reset the option selection.

Hi hnla,

Thanks for replying. I would love to reset the option selection, however where is that option. I've looked in the general options tab, however, no option which represents something like that. In which tab would that be: components, pages or options (see image below, in dutch though)? screenshot-gembur-intranet dev-2017-07-12-09-40-32

You're running a stable release of BP, you need to be running trunk for this change as the code for the select is in BP core now.

The changes are reflected in this changeset: https://github.com/buddypress/next-template-packs/commit/516ef62395446aebdc4fe52ba1735bda3017d006

That would explain a lot. Thanks for explaining.
