Very good.
Overall I think this is a good theme. At first I liked the design, which is why I bought it. But, for the price, I think it is lacking features such as live notifications, and other "modern" features. The notifications in general need a redesign. I know that the notifications page is just the way BuddyPress is... but other theme creators have made the notifications look just like the big social websites. There are other BuddyPress themes out there which are either less expensive, or right around the cost of this theme with more features and a slightly better look and feel.
I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I'm mostly a little bitter because of the cost. I read the reasoning. I still bought it. My fault. Still, I think three stars is an appropriate rating. This is a pretty average BuddyPress theme compared to what's out there these days.
You can upload avatars to groups, but the wallpaper feature as the group background does not function, cannot post backgrounds

Hi there,
This is a feature of BuddyPress rather than the theme so it may not be a theme issue however I can certainly look into this for you and fix it, if it's theme related.
Please open a support ticket at https://ghostpool.ticksy.com/ and provide me with WordPress admin access and I'll take a closer look.
You can create temporary admin access for me using "Temporary Login Without Password" plugin: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/
I personally love this theme and the look and its versatile enough to be a blog or a page based website.

very good!
The creator of this theme does state the theme to be very minimal and he is very accurate. Several issues as well upon initial install of the theme in which I had to create my own zip file of the theme to get it to load up. All in all I could have possibly created this theme myself as well for free.. Not an impressive theme

Hi there,
The issues you had installing the theme were caused by your host not the theme. I pointed this out to you in your support ticket. I also made the point that nobody else has ever had these issues. You said that a lot of users had mentioned it in the comments sections, I replied that I couldn't see any mention of it and if you could provide links - you never responded.
You can see what the theme offers before purchasing it. If you could have created all of the theme features why did you purchase the theme in the first place.
Also why not release a theme on ThemeForest it seems like it would be a bit of easy money for you. :)
good
Buddy is an easy to use, easy to understand Wordpress theme that is fully featured with (almost) everything that a community could need.
This theme is definitely a fantastic starting point to get things 'off the ground' and I would suggest it over the many themes I have tried prior to it.
- Overall the code quality is superb and everything is well noted as to make modifications easier, there's also a child theme in the download which makes modifications that much easier too.
- I haven't experienced any noticeable bugs or issues by default.
- Design is pretty good however there are issues which I noted during extensive use and testing by myself and 20 others. Most notably users struggle to differentiate between blog posts as there's no visible separation between each.
There's also been comments on the mobile layout where the widgets simply clutter the screen and make the site too hard to use; so it would be nice to see an update fixing these issues if possible.
- Documentation is well written and when followed most, if not all questions that I initially had where answered.
Best Clean Code!!!!
Very HOT
