BuddyPress

Hello… Can someone make the mystique theme as a BuddyPress theme? I think it is the perfect theme for a Buddypress site. So please, can someone make this to a Buddypress theme?

Ask the original creator if he wants to do it.

Personally I don’t see why this is better than all those other wordpress themes.

Topic renamed to make the purpose clearer and marked the topic as ‘not a support question’.

actually Xevo, each person think that their prefered theme mean to become official and by default… that is by experience… rofl…

you can even see it, Andy decided that his new theme would be the default of 1.2…. rofl

I’m working on this one in particular, but it’s in my free spare time.

Guess the topic starter is in luck.

@ nexia: Haha, agreed. I make my themes myself so never have the urge too use other peoples work.

I can never get the cool designs in my head to work out on the screen. So I’m setting out to bp other themes.

@Andrea_r Can you please make a download link for that ?

@ Andrea: As you can see people want the normal wp themes to be converted to bp themes, so it’s only good that your fulfilling their needs. Besides, we need more bp themes.

@kimstipsen i’ll holler when it’s done. busy week tho.

Hi Andrea_r,

I am too trying to get bp to work with mystique, it looks like you made some excellent progress. Do you need any assistance or is there anything available for download yet?

I really appreciate the help.

Nope, I’ve got it down pat right now. I was working on it again just the other night, as I’ve had to go back & redo all the ones I took screenshots of.

My only dilemma right now is whether to release it as a child theme (of the original WP theme) or a forked theme. Hrm.

I’ve spent the last couple of hours using the compatibilty pack to get everything lined up – by matching the HTML layout.

It was quick and dirty but now it all fits fine and my sidebar is present (although I’d like to remove it from the buddypress specific pages). To be honest I was surprised I got this far!

Problems:

1. How to get the Nav buttons on the bar? or somthing like. Personally I’d like a ‘Socialise’ Button with Mystique drops downs for the buddypress components I use.

2. Forums don’t work. If I load up the default theme they work (although I can’t create a topic) but through Mystique I just get a black white page.

Any thoughts? If I send you my email address any chance I can have a look/ at what you’ve done?

Send me a PM, I’ve been working on this by making a BP child theme for Mystique. I’ve done the hard parts (adding stuff to nav bar) but was just going thru the HTML parts (the grunt work).

We can merge the work.
