The Unplugged child theme is sleek, dark and very lightweight and works off the Buddypress Default theme. It was designed with Buddypress 1.2 in mind and is LIVE on http://freelancerunplugged.com. Now available at Wordpress Themes Depo.
Instructions:
** IMPORTANT: You must have Wordpress 2.91 and Buddypress 1.2 as a MINIMUM to use this theme. If not, you may get ‘Template Missing’ errors.**
1. Upload the Unplugged child theme to your wp-content/themes
2. Go to SiteAdmin->Themes and Enable this theme
3. Go to Themes->appearance and Activate this theme.
Changing Header and Info Banner:
If you want to change the Header image from the default one, open header2.psd (included in theme download) and modify as needed. Save as png/jpg and in your dashboard area on WPMU go to Appearance > Custom Header > HIDE text > Save Changes > Upload your new header image and click UPLOAD.
To change the Info Banner find the png in the images folder in the Unplugged theme and change it to whatever. I have also included the PSD in the download so you can modify it from there. You can also add anything you want (e.g. a bigger picture or banner ads) but just remember to change the ‘width and height’ in the default.css.
As this is my first theme, if you find any bugs or odd colours just contact me or drop a comment on this post.

Karanvir Singh Sangha´s last blog ..Working on a new linksite where ALL word…
You must have Wordpress MU 2.91+ and Buddypress 1.2rc+ installed to get it to work. It says template files missing if you are using the old Wordpress before 2.91 but they have fixed it since then.
Great theme !
Do you have a demo-website in order to see before I buy ?
thanks,
Thankyou. You can see a working install at http://freelancerunplugged.com. It is also a FREE theme so you do not have to pay for it. Donate if you like though.
I just updated to the latest TRUNK and installed your theme and the CSS seems to be messed up. Any thoughts?
Glowstix´s last blog ..Glowstixx posted an update: MAJOR updates coming to HappyRave.ca this week!
Thanks for using my theme. What CSS is messed up – it looks fine on your website? Also, I just UPDATED the theme, slight change in colour for notifications background and activity backgrounds. Please download it again.
Yes, I figured it out. I was uploading it to the bp-theme folder instead of the regular theme folder.
Question: I modified the footer (to prevent spambots from picking up the words “wordpress” or “buddypress”) – What is the best way to credit you in the footer (or elsewhere)?
If you like you can put this –
Unplugged Theme by Diesel Laws
Or just have Designed by Diesel Laws. Either way thank you for supporting my work.
Which font is in the logo?
HelveticaNeue LT 95 Black
Hello, I wanted to ask you if you found a way to differentiate the even from odd lines in the Activity stream. I’m looking for a solution but not yet resolved.
Great Themes!
Not yet, but I hadn’t even noticed the issue.
Well, that’s not an issue, it’s just to improve readibility.
Are we free to edit anything in the theme and make additional changes to other parts of the default theme?
Yes, you are free to edit it how you please. Just don’t resell it is all I ask. Thanks for downloading!
Sweet! Thanks. My Library was hungry for new designs.
You’re welcome. Thanks for the comment.
