You could have different layouts/colors for different sections/pages of your site within one theme already.
You could create a Twenty Eleven child theme, then install/activate BP template pack plugin and go through the Appearance > BP Compatibility process. The cool thing is that you create a header-buddypress.php (with link to own stylesheet) and a footer-buddypress.php, both with the same structure as the BP Default theme and basically you’re good to go. The two new files would cover all the BP templates transferred to your Twenty Eleven child theme.
Re BP 1.7: As Paul, a BP core dev, mentioned above it’s the customized bbPress 1 which will be phased out, the Group Forums will be kept but will be moved to the Sitewide forums (bbPress plugin). See bbPress Settings where at the bottom of the panel, there’s a section specifically for BuddyPress Group Forums https://mercime.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/bp16-swforums-03.jpg?w=700
Simplest way would be by adding this to your theme’s stylesheet:
`#sidebar div.item-title,
#sidebar div.item-meta {
display: none;
}
#sidebar ul.item-list li {
float: left;
margin: 0 5px 5px 0;
padding: 5px;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
}`
What is the “problem of Algh” ? Looks like you’re proposing a redesign of BP component areas to that of Jcow software. I don’t think that’s likely to happen at all or if it does, it won’t be anytime soon.
@charlietech I believe I’ve seen you post the same issue in WP forum and here some time ago. The issue is with the Suffusion BP pack plugin, please contact the theme/plugin developer.
@whedlund not quite sure what you mean. Could possibly be fixed by adding corrective style in your style.css file only. URL of your members directory page?
