Thanks a lot for your reply, Jaschaio. I did figure it out eventually.
I really appreciate you took the time to answer in detail.
Keep up the good work.

This part?

Is gonna be custom work.

I was thinking of using some classifieds plugin for that. I will need to fiddle around with some of the plugins out there and see if I can get the results I am seeking.

Buddypress is very well still under ACTIVE development. You may be confusing it with bbPress, which is changing.

Huh, I must have confused my self somewhere along my research. Well, to installing Buddypress I go!
Thank you for your input Andrea. If you can’t think of anything (theme, plugin, etc…) that will fit my project please do share.

this looks like you installed a BuddyPress child theme and you;re not running Buddypress. ??

Yeah, I figured that much. I tried installing Buddypress default theme but I ended up giving up on that.

Are the groups BuddyPress groups or blogs?

Right now I have them setup as blogs, I don’t have any objection to setting them up as Buddypress groups if that helps me achieve my goals.

I have tried Buddypress a while back but didn’t go very far with it, the fact that the project is not being developed anymore kind of steered me away. One thing to keep in mind (don’t know how relevant this is) is that I would like the landing page for each blog/group to be the list of available items that other users are sharing. I haven’t figured out yet if this will be a classifieds plugin or a status update type of theme.
