BuddyPress.org

I’m doing some initial information gathering to ensure my installation and setup of BuddyPress goes smoothly. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of information out there that seems out dated, ie references to MU version of WordPress, etc. The question I have is whether or not I need to install “BuddyPress Template Pack” prior to installing the core BuddyPress plugin. I use a theme called EvoLve Pro by Theme4Press. Thanks in advance for your support!
