@iryna_b,
if you tried couple of times, have you deleted some component pages and recreate them ? If yes, it is possible that these delayed pages are still in the trash. If so, you have to clear it.
Now that you’re sure to have only one page for registration and one for activation, recheck your WP settings, the permalinks (anything but not by default), deactivate all plugins except BP and activate the 2014 theme and check if something changed.
If ok, reactivate your plugins one by one, and depending the result, you contact the plugin author or the theme support and ensure yourself it is compatible with buddypress.
For the 2nd question: yes !
@danbp, thank’s for the quick reply!
I tried all the suggested steps, but it still doesn’t work. After i create Register or Activate page, they show up in the main web-site menu, but as soon as I associate them with BP, they disappear.
Before i installed BP, I used another plugin (Profile Builder) for registration and log in, but then i deactivated it along with the pages and switched to BP. Maybe that could be the reason why I can’t set these functions now?
With BuddyPress you don’t need the profile builder plugin. BP has is own profile component (xprofile) to do this.
After i create Register or Activate page, they show up in the main web-site menu, but as soon as I associate them with BP, they disappear.
Normal: it is intended so ! 😉
Once created, both page won’t show up in the menu buider (dashboard > appearence > menus)
So you have nothing other to do as to create them from the settings page.
These page are only visible in the pages list, but they are blank and should stay blank. No template, no any other association. Component pages are only for internal purpose.
@danbp, oh, i see. When I enter the website from another browser, I can see these 2 buttons now.
Do I have to drag these created pages (register and activate) into the Menu structure field? And also in dashboard > appearence > menus > BuddyPress, there is a “logged out” menu with log in and register buttons. Do i need to add them to the main menu column as well?
And a stupid question now, do i need to name the page exactly “activate” to associate with BP elements or “Log in” would be fine?
Sorry, my english is a bit french! 😉 Is this really unclear:
So you have nothing other to do as to create them from the settings page.
And you have nothing to activate in the menu.
The log-in option in the menu exist if you prefer to get on the menu bar instead of a sidebar, throught the login widget.
By default there is a login widgt in wordpres, another one in buddypress and if you use bbpress you get a third. But there is no need to use and activate all.
For the naming, you can use what you want, but be aware that naming vocabulary can easily conflict with coding language such as php. And log in (or loggin, log-in,….) is one of these dangereous word. Avoid !
Got it!
Thanks for assistance!:)
Glad you got it to work. I mark this as resolved.
