Hmmm ... and how do you _really_ feel about BuddyPress?! (*grin*)<br><br>Although there is rarely a glut of BuddyPress themes to be reviewed it would be nice if there were (if needed) some additional guidelines to consider (and more importantly, additional reviewers) so these themes are not all left for Chris to do.<br>
<br>I'll be honest, I have not been a fan of BuddyPress myself, hopefully it is improving but it is definitely not something you will find me using on a regular basis if at all, but this should not affect the team's ability to review themes made for it.<br>
<br>I like the idea of getting the BuddyPress Support folk to get more involved ... anyone know some to ping?<br><br><br>Cais.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 31, 2010 at 11:58 AM, Philip M.

criteria ( at least how it differs from regular theme reviews ) for doing
BuddyPress reviews.<br><br>It seems most of the team is leery to do a BP
Theme, it might help if we had more of an idea what special items to keep in
mind specifically as you seem to have the best handle on them at the moment.
This may even make for a sub-page specifically for reviewing BuddyPress
themes as well.<br><br></blockquote>
<div>Well, my hesitance is two-fold:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>1) Review Guideline differences between standard and buddypress
Themes</div>
<div>2) Not running BuddyPress on my Theme Review testbed (and not wanting
to)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The former, we can address by having the BuddyPress experts weigh in on
their BP-specific review criteria (and I think a sub-page under Theme Review
is ideal). The latter will simply require more people biting the bullet
to run a testbed with BP installed.</div>
