Will buddypress work with the thesis theme in wordpress? I am currently getting the following message…BuddyPress is ready. You’ll need to activate a BuddyPress compatible theme to take advantage of all of the features. We’ve bundled a default theme, but you can always install some other compatible themes or upgrade your existing WordPress theme. Does this mean that thesis theme is not compatible? because I am assuming that if it was, buddypress would recognize that I already have the theme installed and would not state the first direction in the first sentence. The buddypress icons like login, logout, and selections of groups etc… can be seen on my site but are not functional.

Do I have to change my current theme in order to have the buddypress plugin on my site site. Can the buddypress theme not work with my theme

@novicer – Try using the BP Template Pack plugin with your WP theme:
