### 󠀁[Abandoned not working with the latest Version of Buddypress](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/abandoned-not-working-with-the-latest-version-of-buddypress/)󠁿

Since this plugin has not been updated in over 8 years, it should automatically 
be removed from the repository or at least marked with “Abandoned”. I tried it today
and got a criticall error on my site. To recover from it, I needed to delete the
plugin through FTP.

### 󠀁[Cool plugin, makes my Buddypress site look way way better.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cool-plugin-makes-my-buddypress-site-look-way-way-better/)󠁿

 [Mark](https://profiles.wordpress.org/markob17/) September 3, 2016

Simple to setup and makes the site look way better. Only thing is I didn’t like 
any of the default color themes. I couldn’t figure out how to create a custom theme
either through the themeroller link you posted. Any instructions to do so? Maybe
I’m just having one of those days. I think I can probably tweak it via css though,
but not my preferred way if there is a theme generator. But regardless, great simple
plugin. Thanks!!
