your best shot will be at their official website, not here…
Has the parent-child structure been abandoned in version 1.2? I see the download comes with only one bp-default folder. Can you still use a custom child theme on top of bp-default in 1.2 or should you just replace bp-default?
The old theme (BP Classic) is available in the BP Backwards Compatibility plugin:

The new theme is built with child themes in mind! So yes, you can use a custom child theme on top of bp-default!

So… I had the same problem, but as a BP n00b I can’t tell from this thread what the status is. Is it considered solved yet, and if so, how do I apply the fix?
Thanks
@bewst – fix to what? Buddymatic Theme or a child theme?
Bewst: Buddymatic hasn’t been updated for 1.2 yet, so any errors are likely due to that. Give the kind theme developers a little time, it’ll be updated very shortly, at which time you can download a new version that should work just fine. (I know ’cause I’ve been pestering them myself!)
