Aardvark - BuddyPress, Membership & Community Theme

Buddy is a lightweight, modern and fully responsive WordPress and BuddyPress theme that can be used for any type of website, whether it be business, corporate, community, magazine, portfolio, etc. If you want to use the theme without BuddyPress or bbPress it works great too.

More Key Features

Shortcodes
Buddy comes with an excellent array of shortcodes including a BuddyPress activity form, images, posts, lists, toggle boxes, sliders and so much more. They can also be inserted in pages using the shortcode generator.

Retina Ready
Buddy ensures your website looks sharp on high resolution devices by swapping normal resolution for high resolution images and utilises HTML5, CSS3, and icon fonts that don’t distort with larger resolutions displays.

Search Engine Optimization
Buddy is built with the latest SEO practices in mind. Semantic HTML5 for better search result placement, schema markup of all content, correct use of H tags, main content loaded before secondary content – we have it all covered.

Translation Ready
Buddy comes with translation files so you can easily translate your site into any language you want.

Icon Font
Why are icon fonts so important? Simple. They are so easy to use, look great at any size and make your content look that much better. Buddy includes the Font Awesome library to give you nearly 400 icons to use throughout your navigation, paragraphs, buttons, lists, and just about anything else you can think about.

Clean Code
Buddy conforms to the best coding practices when it comes to HTML, CSS, PHP and JavaScript. We hate clutter and all our code is simple, clean and easy to read. This is especially important if you want to edit the code yourself. We’ve implemented the latest HTML5 and CSS3 techniques along with cutting edge WordPress standards to ensure that your theme will give you the best possible experience in terms of the latest web features and faster page load times.

Customer Support
We offer top notch which means you will receive detailed answers to any questions you may have quickly. Trouble using the theme? Find a bug? We’ll solve it for you.

Individual & Global Options
The theme gives you the ability to change the options on each individual post or page or you can do it globally to change them all at once.

Create Unlimited Sidebars
Create unlimited sidebars that you can display on any page you want.

Child Theme
Comes with a child theme so if you ever want to make any code changes they will not be overwritten when you update the theme.

Customer Reviewers

A truly epic theme! I spent the last 6 months building my website focused around news style/magazine but after seeing this… instantly fell in love with it. I’m going to do some pretty crazy hacks to this! Kudos to you!

Awesome theme + great support! Five starts from me!

I bought it, it’s an awesome theme, so flexible.

Wonderful theme. I purchased a grand total of 4 premium themes, prior to finding this. None of them were perfect. This is exactly what I wanted. A professional, responsive BuddyPress theme, it’s superb. – tehkseven

Well, I recommend it for every single Wordpress-fanatic who wants to work with Buddypress. Installation was easy, setting up the components (sorry, ex Joomla user) was done within minutes and every plugin I tried worked out of the box and that is something that was a pain in the #*@ at other themes. Really great job on this theme, pretty easy to customise by the way. – lastpost

Thanks for the quick service support. I highly recommend this theme. – consultsite

Just want to say I’ve been working with this theme since it’s release and I rate both it and Dan’s support very highly! – FlipFl0p

Easy to customize, makes the job, good documentation, cleverly coded, important options are there, powerful features and good BuddyPress and bbPress integration, a big + for Woocommerce. – ganjou

I was hosting my forum on a custom vbulletin theme and was constantly upgrading and paying $100’s every year just on maintenance – I changed to Wordpress/BBPress and chose this Buddy theme – Due to the excellent design, flexibility and support of the theme even with very limited technical knowledge I now have an amazing feature rich site which I maintain myself. – Jon – systemsfortraders.com

I just wanted to say that we tried various themes before deciding on using Buddy, but we’re glad we made the decision as it just looks like a social network. It’s easy to use and other plugins work extremely well with it, including WooCommerce. A proper looking site :) Thanks you. – Business-Web

This site is perfect for my needs, and looks very good as well. I had a developer make some major customisations without any problem. – troybanarzi

    they reguest additional support fee for this
    Author response
    Hi there,
    I did not request an additional support fee. You told me that the shortcodes are not working and gave me no other information. I asked you to open a support ticket on my support site like every customer does so I could look into my issue. I was not aware your support had expired at this point.
    Now I'm aware of this things can be handled a little differently. However, I have to point out, you had 6 months of free support so why did you wait this long to report this issue? Or has this issue only just occurred? Why do you assume this is a theme issue, when nobody else using the theme has had this issue? Isn't it more likely an issue on your end? I suspect you've updated the theme and not updated or activated the Buddy Plugin. Once you do this the shortcodes should work again.
    However, if this is a theme bug you won't be expected to to renew your support - bug fixes are free. So please make sure the Buddy Plugin is updated and activated and if this isn't the issue, email me via my profile page contact form with your website URL so I can take a look at the issue.

  • Customizability By schala002, 2016-12-22 via themeforest.net Easy to use.
  • Customizability By stepienybarno, 2016-11-30 via themeforest.net Intuitivo.
  • Design Quality By youngjediknoght, 2016-11-02 via themeforest.net I picked design quality as the main reason for my rating but really its a combination of that, customer support and flexibility. I am running a fairly plugin heavy site using this theme and it is holding up strong. Support from Ghost is very reliable and friendly. Unlike some other dev houses that seem more like fly-by-nights, I have confidence in Ghostpool. I've spent more than double on other themes that were hardly as sophisticated and the support levels were nothing short of insulting. This is a very high quality theme with great support at a very reasonable price. Thank you GP!
