What theme are you using? If it’s bp-default theme that’s missing those files, download another copy of BuddyPress, unzip and upload the /registration/ folder which contains the register.php and activate.php files
hi,
I’m not using the default theme and still experience the same problem. Here is the registration link and it just goes to the home page.
When I download another copy of the BP I don’t see a registration folder, however I do see an activity folder but nothing in there regarding registration.
How can I resolve this?
I am having the same problem. The registration folder is empty……
Switch to the default theme. Buddypress will be happiest with this as a starting point. Once you have things working with the default theme, then you can switch themes. As far as Registration and Activation pages go, when you ran the Wizard, weren’t you asked to just create the pages, Register and Activate? You would then associate them with those pages in the Buddypress Admin area.
My pages are there but registration is a blank page, no fields for the user (www.pampermeplace.net/twochicksandajewelrybiz/
- deactivate the sliding login plugin
- double-check if the register/ folder is in your organic_health_blue folder in wp-content/themes
It is now deactivated and there is a registration folder with a file within it register.php
Any nice way to put on main page the register/login link or widget available? Register page is still blank.
I’m having the same problem with no registration page. I just downloaded the most recent version of bp and wp. http://collaboratepdx.org/ Thanks for any help
I changed the site to the default theme and tried still the same issue. And, I created the various activity and registration pages and link it to BP’s admin area and still same issue.

- make sure you have enabled registration first in dashboard Settings > General panel, otherwise there won’t be a register page at all
- check dashboard BuddyPress > Pages and ensure that Register and Activate are associated with Pages already
- double-check wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration folder. It should contain register.php and activate.php files. If any are missing, reupload registration folder or re-install BuddyPress manually.
The most obvious solution was the problem – enabling registration in the dashboard. Thanks so much, now I can move on to the fun stuff.
Good for you. Yup, fun stuff awaits 
All of these are done and good. So not sure of the problem. Is the register page automatic once all of the above are done? Any codes I need to put in the page?
@andreao No need to put codes. Change to bp-default theme and deactivate plugins except BuddyPress to troubleshoot. WP/BP versions? Single WP or WP Multisite? Linux or Windows hosting?
Thanks everyone I finally got it to work. I had to strip everything down and start from scratch.
