    Hi guys, I have an existing website using WordPress and I just want to have a community and installed BuddyPress in the other folder “e.g. mysitewordpress/community” I was wondering if it is possible to merge the two different installed software?

    Really appreciate any help from you guys.

    Thanks!

    Thank you for reading.

    I tried to install BuddyPress as Plugin in my existing WordPress and its working. My problem is the theme is not compatible for BuddyPress. Even though there’s a BuddyPress Template Pack plugin, the theme is useless for BuddyPress. What I need right now is a Premium WordPress Theme compatible with BuddyPress.

    I will remove the BuddyPress in my the other folder (community) and will look for the theme instead.

    Thanks for the help!

    Or enable the network:
    https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

    Then click the “add site” button to make /community/. Activate buddypress there. put your buddypress theme on that blog. Problem solved.

    To install BuddyPress on a secondary blog, you can also read this:

    If you’re looking for a matching BP theme for your WordPress theme, currently BP Template Pack is the only plugin in town and it needs updating.

    A premium theme with BP support built-in is the other alternative like you stated.
