Hi Hugo, thanks for the info on templates, I will research further.
I was under the impression the theme would be open source and as a result I would make a derivative work and provide credit where due – of course I will investigate this fully. Although it appears to be a direct derivative of the BP theme itself.
Also, could I take the Buddypress views from the Firmasite theme, update them to Bootstrap 3 and implement them in my theme? Do you think this would work?
ok thanks – what I did while testing was copy everything from /bp-legacy into [root]/buddypress and it worked fine.
if i understand correctly what i need to do is simply add files into /buddypress/groups etc, and copy them from the bp-default theme in the plugin directory.
@Hugo so in theory if I remove the default CSS stylesheets that come bundled with BP (no idea how right now) and re-write the markup in Bootstrap it should work?
Also, I have a feeling I am following the wrong template hierarchy – are the /groups /activity etc folders created directly in the theme root?
