I can’t believe I’m the only one with this problem. I’m not new to wordpress, but I’m not as proficient as I’d like to be. I’m trying to upload BP in zip format as a theme and am getting the following message

style.css stylesheet. Theme install failed”>

Any ideas?

I’m installing BP and am getting the following code.

“Installing Theme from uploaded file: buddypress.1.9.2.zip Unpacking the package… Installing the theme… The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the <code>style.css</code> stylesheet. Theme install failed.”

Am I the only on experiencing this problem. Ay help would be appreciated.

Buddypress is a plugin not a theme. It is still bundled with a theme but that isn’t necessary any more and is hidden on new installs – it can be activated with a snippet.

Most normal themes ( that follow official wordpress guidelines ) should be compatible now. For more info see theme compatibility articles in the bp documentation.

Well that explains a lot… Thanks. I feel just a little less confident then I did an hour ago. :S
