    Hi @mercime, thank you so much for your reply! I have forwarded the info along to the programmer at Odesk and have asked him to take another look and see if he understands your instructions. Thank you so much for your help. I will let you know how it goes…

    Hi, I completely uninstalled the WP installation, deleted the database and started from scratch.

    BuddyPress looks awful on ThemeGoods SIRENS theme. There was no “Create Group” button, no sidebars on BuddyPress pages, the search functions at top were overlapping other content. The links on the Profiles pages were just links – not tabs. The post button and post in drop downs were hidden. You can’t write a title on discussion posts. Uugh. Just ugly. I hired an ODESK programmer with years of programming experience. He spent 24 hours trying to fix things and even wrote a child theme. He could not get it to look good. Money down the drain.

    I really like the theme and want to use it for the main website. I think I am going to need to do a separate subdirectory install with a BuddyPress theme for my community. Can you advise me on the best way to go about that?

    I want Community members to be able to participate in blogs and classifieds on the main site and, of course, participate in the BuddyPress subfolder. Do I need a multisite install to enable them to be part of both installations??

    Would it be best to create a subdirectory install like community.mywebsite.com or a folder install like mywebsite.com/community ?

    Thanks for all your help!! I greatly appreciate it!
