HI there,
Im pretty sure this is going to sound silly (as new on BP as I’am) but I have to questions:
1-What I have seen it seems that BuddyPress overwrite the previous wordpress theme… or not? I have already an established site and would not like to change the theme… so, if buddypress overwrite it, I cant install it unless creating a subdomain (buddyp.mydomain.com) or so (mydomain.com/buddyp) it’s that true?
2-What is the best membership plugin compatible with BP? I would like to use Wishlist because their features, but the only one I have heard is fully compatible is S2Member… is that true?
I’ll appreciate any insight on this. Thanks you all for your time.

thank anyway at least for reading:)The FAQ page http://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/ says that in order to get register button on the BP site, I need to
Login to the WP admin area, navigate to “Settings > General”, and make sure “Anyone can register” is checked.Well, I don’t want people to see the Register button on the rest of the site – they should only see it when they visit the BP pages…
What should I do?

hello there
I’m new to theming in WordPress, but having a blast! Just loading my own childtheme for the first time is a great feeling.
I have learned how to add code to header, sidebars etc..
I have two questions that seems to trick me a bit.1. How to set a maximum character amounts for the post summary (which isn’t really a summary, since the whole post is being show) so it automatically just cut the text and add a “read more” afterwards?
2. The summary has the author avatar shown on the frontpage.
If I wanted to get rid of that and have a thumnail there, (It already shows an image, but that’s the one
in the article. What if ai wanted to have a smaller thumbnail..?
Basically I’m trying get a more “magazine” look and a feel to my theme.Would appreciate any direction:)
Cheers, Dan

I have a few questions about taking my sites to the next level by enabling multisite and networking them.
Right now I have a large buddypress community and I have almost completed my second for opening. I am wondering if I should create a new site that is the portal to these two sites and acts as the master site for the network. Is that a good approach? or should each of these sites be their own master of the network?Does this approach make my members already registered for the new site? Do they have to login only once? Can they change their name or profile details on one site to be different than the other?
When I enable blogs on multisite, does everyones blog updates post on the site and then when you click on them it takes them to their own wordpress themed blog?Is there any video’s or examples people know about to visualize this better?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! just trying to wrap my head around it all as I think it is the next huge leap for my sites.
