I am running Buddypress and bbpress under wordpress MU. I've been using WordPress since 2005 but this is the first time I've activated the MU features and I haven't fully explored it yet. My understanding is that Buddypress provides social network functions and bbpress provides forums.
Am I correct in my assumption that I will have to hunt down a WordPress theme that supports both buddypress and bbpress? Does such an animal exist?
Or do I have to find separate themes for buddypress and bbpress that resemble my main theme?
Thanks for your help and your patience with a Buddypress newbie.
I've included the messages from Manage Themes. For the time being I'm activating BuddyPress Default 1.5.1.
Thanks for your help!
