Add visible placeholder content to the left (25%) and right (25%) sidebar columns in the community 3-column template so they don't collapse visually and the 25/50/25 layout is clearly visible.

Now I have a clear picture. The `page-hermes-community.php` is the existing community template, and the mu-plugin looks for `page-templates/community-3col.php` under the theme directory. The theme is `profe-theme`, not `buddyx-pro`. Let me create the proper 3-column template with visible placeholder sidebars.

Donna2026-05-31 18:26 UTC
The template is properly created. Here's a summary of what was done:
---
## Summary
### What I did
1. **Discovered the actual theme** — The task referenced `buddyx-pro` but the actual active theme is `profe-theme` at `/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/profe-theme/`. The mu-plugin `profe-community-template-forcer.php` references `get_template_directory() . '/page-templates/community-3col.php'`, which resolves to the `profe-theme` directory.
2. **Created the missing template** — The `community-3col.php` file didn't exist anywhere. I created it at the path the mu-plugin expects.
3. **Added visible placeholder content** to both sidebars so the 25/50/25 layout is clearly visible.
### Files created / modified
**Created:** `/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/profe-theme/page-templates/community-3col.php`
- **Left sidebar (25%):** Colored `<div>` with a dark-themed card (`var(--p-bg-card, #1a1d2e)` background, `var(--p-border, #262a3e)` border), containing an inline SVG icon (48x48 dark rounded rect with lines symbolizing navigation), label "LEFT SIDEBAR", and description "Navigation & filters will appear here". Has `min-height: 300px` and `padding: 1.5rem` for visual weight.
- **Right sidebar (25%):** Same card style with a profile-themed SVG icon, label "RIGHT SIDEBAR", and description "Profile & quick actions here".
- **Main content (50%):** The actual page content rendered in a styled card, matching the existing `profe-content` theme classes.
- **Layout:** CSS flexbox with `width: 25% / 50% / 25%`, `flex-shrink: 0`, `min-width: 200px` on sidebars. Responsive breakpoint at 1024px stacks all columns vertically.
- **Template header:** `Template Name: Community 3-Column` — WordPress will show this in the page template dropdown.
### PHP syntax
Verified clean — `No syntax errors detected`.
### How it works
The mu-plugin checks `file_exists(get_template_directory() . '/page-templates/community-3col.php')` — it now finds this file and will load it for the BuddyPress Activity directory page. The placeholder sidebars ensure the 25/50/25 layout is immediately obvious even without any real content in the side columns.
