Hi everyone

I`ve got just one short question:
Is there any chance to change the look of the profile site. I`m using the bp-default theme and need to do two things:

1. Displaying the data in list (uncounted List), for example:
Hobbys:
– Football
– Party
– …

2. Is there a chance to display the profile data for a couple:
Her Him
Age: 40 45
Hobbys: Football, Party Sports
…. …. ….

Thanks a lot for your help

Greetings

Vanima

This codex might help you. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Members profile templates is located in /members/single in the bp-default theme. also, css will help you list them

When you build a bp-default child theme, you’ll need to add a style.css file. That’s where you can add the changes. To identify what element you need to change, install Firebug add-on for Firefox and right-click on the element or use Chrome and right-click to inspect element.

Tell us what you did try? Using Firebug, you can grab the CSS elements and place them in your child theme, then change what you want. Of course, you may not always know that you have the right element, but you can tell if Buddypress is seeing it or not, through Firebug. How well do you know CSS? Have you looked at tutorials?
