Child Theme Development

[developdaly]

The recent change ([
​http://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/1669]) to the bp-default theme style.css includes the commented out line:

/* Uncomment the following line and add your custom styles to '_inc/css/custom.css' */
/* @import url( _inc/css/custom.css ); */

I think the custom.css stylesheet should be added to bp-default, because the framework shouldn't contain ANYTHING custom. Plus, the styles are for the current theme, not the framework.

This isn't a technical problem, just an issue of theme development theory.

This not in the framework, it's in the default theme. It's for people who want to use the default theme but change the colors or something. You can't make a child of a child unfortunately.
