Stop Arguing with me!!!!! lol.. j/k man.

So ‘pretty bad’ essentially referring to the search and the lack of the better themes residing on there. It was useless to me and google was always a better way to find good themes before the “theme houses” started popping up and centralizing them.

I’m glad the team is taking time to focus on this and other stuff outside of core – MUCH needed :)

Now that I’ve heard BuddyPress child themes are already in the directory, maybe a lot of the functionality and code necessary is already there.

Not arguing, just genuinely curious.

I’ve heard some complaints about their search leaving something to be desired, as well as complaints on the quality of themes present there.

According to this I guess all you have to do is tag it with “BuddyPress” while submitting.

That theme directory has been pretty bad for a long time… good to see them working on that in their core code-break

This is great news. Let’s just hope that fixing the installer and UI is a quick process. I assume this is all part of the 3.org phase, so it’ll likely be coming down the pipeline fairly quickly.
