Themes?

    I was wondering what most of you are doing when it comes to themes.

    Im not new to wordpress at all but i am new to buddypress and upon searching for themes they are very limited. Most of them are outdated. If you checkout themeforest for premium themes there is only a small selection.

    From what i understand (and i could be wrong) normal wordpress themes do not work.

    So for us non webdesigners, where do we get themes?

    P.S. i apologize if this is in the wrong forum.

    Honestly if you want BuddyPress to function correctly, In my opinion you should create a child theme based on the BuddyPress default theme and make any changes within its css. If you don’t know how to make a child theme then I can send you a really simple one that allows you to change the CSS of the buddypress default theme. As of this post the newest theme is Fanwood and I am not certain it will function correctly with WordPress 3.4.1 and BuddyPress 1.6

    @stevedmma aside from creating your own bp-default child theme, you can also use a regular WP theme and make it compatible with BuddyPress via BP Template Pack plugin. We have “template-packed” more than 75 WP themes in list -> https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
