Ah that would make more sense. Im using the frisco theme. Ill see what i can do

Right… i have that working, my final ‘issue’ is the way it doesnt like spaces.

If you register with bp deactivated, you can use spaces in your name. If you then reactivate buddypress you can log in with the name (using spaces) and it just puts the -‘s in the mention part, which is fine.

However if i register with buddypress installed, the confirmation email is sent with my username and spaces filled with -‘s. So i register with 1 2 3, then my username becomes 1-2-3…

Any ideas on that one?

With very little php knowledge, i copy and pasted the wp-signup.php code (from the main wordpress folder) and replaced the bp-default themes register.php with the code.

It looks like its worked because the forms etc sit nicely on the page and actually stay in the theme.

But when clicking on the register or w.e button, it gets an error which is caused by the validation method…

Not sure if im going about this the right way?

I would just love to redirect the page to the normal wp-register lol.

Hmm, i have applied the check username and it has smartened things up.

Just had a thought, WP allows the use of caps etc in its registration when you first install,

Thats how my acc is AdminCraig…

Anyway to allow the user to register like this, surely it will still work with buddypress…

not sure if theres a different link for wp registration etc?
