left (Dashboard) sidebar is not complete

I started using wanderers template, cause of the fact that rockettheme is way too slow for me when using easysocial...... With wanderers it is fast.

I like the template. it is fast, it is clean and easy to adjust in css to match the site. I do mis some more variation in module positions, but it is workable cause easysocial also has a lot of module positions.

This is however not what I want to ask. The problem is, that the left sidebar is not complete while using wanderers template....

I attached 2 screenshots. One when wanderers is active. The other one I switched to default joomla template. The default template shows a lot more on the side!

Wanderers does not show feed filters. It does not show the groups the user has, it does not show the events the user attends etc. See screenshots for what I mean.

NExt to this, when using wanderers, stream icons dont work either. They just dont appear...on the default joomla template they do...

Is there something that I have to do with the wanderers template to use easysocial with it?

last thing I want to mention: badges dont work either. they are activated, but users just dont get them. But I am not sure if this is wanderers related. Would not be surprised if it was.....
