I’ve been reading the support forums for a while, I know its my theme causing the problems. I disabled all my plugins and went to the default WordPress theme and everything worked. So my question is what can i do to fix it. The theme I’m using is Replay by Themex. I can’t view members, send private message, create a group, or use the forums. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@webt89 Unfortunately, there are themes with proprietary templating systems that hijacks the loop which allows BP to be compatible with WP themes. There could still be a way around it.

1. https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/

2. Examples of creating a buddypress.php file to customize BP pages -> https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/

In your case though, you cannot copy over the page.php source code to your buddypress.php. What you would need to do is get the plain HTML structure of that section and replace some code with the WordPress Loop which includes the_title and the_content.

You could try asking the premium theme author for that simple buddypress.php file which you need to upload to your theme folder in server or hire a developer to do so.
