BuddyPress.org

Thank you again for your response. I am well aware of how to create a Static Front Page, my problem comes when editing the theme for the /blog page.

Would I need to create a file that takes a standard page template and incorporates a look called page-blog.php and if so would this be placed in the Buddypress Default themes folder?

If the above is incorrect please could someone point me in the right direction, does the Buddypress theme sit over the default WordPress Twenty Eleven? So just to clarify, I am wanting to change the layout of the /blog page, I have tried editing most of the files within the Editor but it does not seem to replicate on the front end.

You can see an example of what I am working with (this is a dev site as the main installation is for a work based innovation blog):

http://area51.creativenerds.org/wordpress – Is running off the ‘HomePage’ page set within WordPress Reading Options

http://area51.creativenerds.org/wordpress/blog – Is set in the reading options as the ‘Posts Page’ this is the page I wish to change the style/layout of and add things into the loop.

Regards
Sam
