    Bug report:

    The warning message that comes up saying I need to do something to my theme even after installing activating and running the setup for the compatibility for the BuddyPress templates still comes up. It’s like it’s not checking that I completed that portion of the task.

    Did you add a “buddypress” tag to your theme’s stylesheet?

    eg.

    /*
    Theme Name: BuddyPress Dusk
    Theme URI: http://example.org/themes/dusk/
    Description: Dark theme for BuddyPress.
    Version: 1.0
    Author: John Doe
    Author URI: http://example.org/
    Template: bp-default
    Tags: buddypress, two-column, grey, dark
    */

    Notice the “buddypress” tag.

    And why should I do that? It wasn’t listed as a necessity. Change the bug to ‘implementation of finding whether the templates exist should be revised to something more integrated, like a simple file_exists(get_(template/stylesheet)_directory().’/blogs/index.php’)

    I’m just listing a possible solution.

    If you’re not satisfied, please post a new enhancement ticket on Trac:
