And I just want this website to be clean simple and to the point. How would I go about using a pre-existing theme (such as a blog, or photography theme), to have users showcase their photos, their “blog-style-posts”, and other media on their profile in a format where it…[Read more]

It’s pointing me in the right direction for what I want to accomplish. I feel like I just need a better understanding of the infrastructure of Wordpress, and how BuddyPress works together with it. And you are right, there are endless amounts of options!I’m just stuck on how i would customize the X theme to how…[Read more]

I’m glad to hear all of that. Is there any tutorials or pages you recommend for the breakdown of BuddyPress and CSS / Template files? And I’ve been looking into coding my own theme, looks promising.
