Please note the date on this post. It’s almost a year old at this point, and severely outdated.

Should I remove it from my archives then? At the time, it was relevant & timely. Now, not so much. There’s a plugin to help you do this, and information in the BP forums.

@andrea, you guys have done wonderful jobs, and you figured that the rest of the world knows how to do it too. I appreciate your article which is nearly the most informative stuff I can find about BP. But please put it in Information category because it is not a tutorial.
Keep doing like this, at the end, only you developers knows how to work with BP, the rest of the world give up.

Anyone found a guide yet on how to port a standard wordpress theme to a functioning buddypress theme? There are some awesome themes I would like to use but I need the buddypress functionality.

Yes, I’m working with Thesis and have found the exact same thing. I’m anxious to integrate WP, BBpress, and Buddypress together but I’d love to be able to keep the Thesis-y look. Sadly, I haven’t found a whole lot of information on how to do this yet…

How have the recent changes to the way BuddyPress handles themes effected how you can adapt themes to handle BuddyPress?

This change was supposed to make things easier, however there are still many like myself who are having a hard time figuring out how to port our favorite themes over to run on BP.

I’m using Thesis by the way and love it… I don’t want to give it up.
It has be done, the only thing is that those who have ported Thesis over are not exactly being forthcoming with the how… Likely because they want to be hired to do it for you.

Any tips? Suggestions?

Hi !

I wanted to know if there is any simple way to convert a WP theme to a BP theme ?
If there isn’t, how can I adapt a WP theme for BP ?

Oh, and last but not least : will it be more difficult to create a BP iPhone theme ? ^^

Thanks

PS : I’m not posting this to the official forum because I’m unable to…. -____-

I haven’t checked under the hood for WPMU and BBPress. But if you install both to your domain, do the end-users or members have to register twice? Once in WPMU to create new blogs and another registration for the social community in BBPress?

Or is this integrated together for one registration for all access to both?

Thanks in advance.
