Im using a non-buddypress theme and make it buddypress ready. It works fine and has been working fine for months now. But one thing I can’t seem to understand how to get rid of is the
“You’ll need to activate a BuddyPress-compatible theme to take advantage of all of BuddyPress’s features. We’ve bundled a default theme, but you can always install some other compatible themes or update your existing WordPress theme.” message in the /wp-admin dashbored.. any ideas?

@yadigit – The official way to remove it is via adding the tag ‘buddypress’ to your theme style.css comment header (the section where you tell wordpress your theme’s name).

eg.
`
/**
* Theme Name: My Themes
* Tags: buddypress, awesome
**/
`

Theirs also an internal config line that you can add to wp-config.php or plugins/bp-custom.php
`define( ‘BP_SILENCE_THEME_NOTICE’, true );`
