BuddyPress Colours gets on the theme directory

This week BuddyPress Colours was accepted into the WordPress theme directory and we’re over the moon about it.  You can now get it right here.  In just a few days we’ve been amazed by the 650 downloads.  If you don’t know what BuddyPress Colours is… it is a theme pack that consists of child themes where the colours are split from the layout elements making it really easy to create your own colour scheme.

We’d like to thank anyone whose downloaded it and look forward to welcoming new members both to the blog and as BuddyDress members through the theme.

BuddyPress.org gets a facelift

BuddyPress.org got a facelift which sees it using a modified version of the default theme on the insides. There is more connectivity potential between members and more of the expected ‘buddypress’ functions along with most areas being overhauled.

A slightly different slant to a part of this week’s Friday Find we’re going to have a look at a couple of this weeks tweets about BuddyPress:

There was a great Daily tip over at wpmu.org entitled ‘Make Sure to Put Your bp-custom.php File in the Correct Directory’. Sarah also put up a great post ‘Basic Guide to Creating a BuddyPress Language File for Sitewide Label and Message Editing’.
