    My client currently uses DirectoryPress and wants a new site built on Genesis.

    Rather than use 2 themes, is there an alternative that can be installed in a sub domain that integrates with Genesis?

    If you want to build a directory site I would do it WITH Genesis but the directory functionality should go via a plugin! Any functionality should in most cases go into plugins! Except if you're using a framework with child themes then the parent theme host some functions too!

    There are very good plugins out there for directories, like this premium one: http://ddwb.me/8r (uses custom post type, which is good!)

    Or a host of free alternatives, have look on WordPress.org:
