Hey Everyone,

First of all, thanks up front for the help. This problem has been driving me crazy. Like it says in the Title line, every single page of Buddypress redirects to the Members page.

For example, the page to change a profile avatar http://thinkbluethinking.com/members/blue-thinking/profile/change-avatar/ ends up at http://thinkbluethinking.com/members/

I have no redirect that would cause this in cpanel not do I have a redirect plugin that would be causing this problem. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ed

@goozleology deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to default theme. If the behavior persists with defaults then post back here.

If the problem is resolved with bp-default and no other plugins except BuddyPress, then you should check which of the plugins or if it’s the theme that’s causing such behavior, then contact plugin/theme author.

I am having the same problem. I am using BP-default and deactivated all plug-ins except BuddyPress, and am getting re-directed back to the Members page when clicking on any My Account features such as accessing profile, friend requests – anything that has the format `http://sitename.com/BPfolder/members/administrator/anythingels` – also happens when I log in on a test account as an ordinary Member, not just as Administrator.

@jml1618 just to clarify, is your WP installed like this https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory (because this set up won’t work with BP) or is your WP/BP installed in a normal subdirectory?

Hi Mercime,

WP/BP are installed in normal subdirectories.

Thanks, Jim

BP/WP versions? Was your WP working well before you installed BP?

Check your htaccess and wp-config.php files with info here – https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/buddypress-on-a-sub-directory-installed-wp-291/#post-36047

Hi Mercime,

WP was working fine (and is), running 3.1.2.
BP, running Version 1.2.8.

It appears that the problem is restricted to the members folder. Everything in the forums, activity and groups folders is working fine. Anything functionality that points to the members folder redirects to the Members Directory.

Your http://sitename.com/BPfolder/ doesn’t happen to be actually http://sitename.com/members/ ? There’s a BP bug when you install BP in a directory with same name as one of its components, in this case members.

its biofuelsdigest.com/digestgroup/members – so there’s some crossover but its not the same.

Hello everyone, I have got a fix for this. Are you using WordPress SEO by Yoast? If you are using this plugin, go to Permalinks, and uncheck redirect ugly url to clean ones. That will fix the problem for you. It fixed mine! This note is from the plugin author: People make mistakes in their links towards you sometimes, or unwanted parameters are added to the end of your URLs, this allows you to redirect them all away. Please note that while this is a feature that is actively maintained, it is known to break several plugins, and should for that reason be the first feature you disable when you encounter issues after installing this plugin.
