@sbrajesh thank you! Adding exit(0); nailed it!

@hnla

bp_is_current_component( ‘activate’ ) and ‘activate’ == bp_is_current_component() and bp_is_activation_page() and is_page('activate') all work by themselves – it was my function that was missing an exit statement that was the problem. Thanks to @sbrajesh it’s all sorted now.

The easiest way to inherit ‘some’ of the CSS from the default theme is to copy what you need and paste it into your theme’s style.css.

Then add this to your functions.php file
if ( !function_exists( 'bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles' ) ) :
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles() {}
endif;

This will tell BuddyPress not to queue up the default…[Read more]

Instead of editing the text strings in the core or you theme’s files, you can use a language translation file. It makes life much easier:

Hi @sbrajesh

Have you tested bp_is_activation_page() recently? Both that and bp_is_current_component( 'activate' ) don’t seem to be working for me even though similar functions such as bp_is_register_page() work perfectly.

@djpaul I thought the members search also had the autosuggest feature?

@soloacademy

You don’t need to put any code in your homepage template. @bphelp‘s code goes into your bp-custom.php file.

I am using a slightly different method. Copy and paste this into your theme’s functions.php file.
//redirect logged in users away from homepage to their profile page
function bp_homepage_to_profile() {

@bphelp nice new blog! looking forward to hearing some tips and tricks…

You’ll need to post a link to your website and/or provide screenshots of the problem. It will likely be a CSS issue

I haven’t used this plugin but it looks as though it will do what you need:

That code needs to go in your theme, replacing your current menu. It doesn’t go in functions.php. Try looking in header.php. you’re looking for wp_nav_menu

It works for me on a menu I’ve called footer.

I reckon the 2 menu approach will be easier anyway . you’ll have to create another menu in wp admin but that should be straight forward just a little time consuming.

if you want to make the avatar a bit bigger you could try

<?php bp_member_avatar( 'type=thumb&height=100&width=100' ); ?>

With reference to your code, you have primary-nav where you should have Main-Menu. Also, don’t forget to log out when you check if the register link is in the menu. It’ll only be visible to logged-out users

@hnla actually suggested an easier option i almost overlooked. You could set up 2 menus in WP Admin and display them in your theme according to the logged-in status of the user:
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'user-loggedin-menu' ) );
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' =>…[Read more]

Ah OK.

Remove this bit

<?php bp_member_avatar( 'type=full&width=750&height=750' ); ?>

and replace it with

<?php bp_member_avatar( 'type=thumb&height=30&width=30' ); ?>

@benjino use the last function i posted, making sure to replace CHANGE-THIS with the name of the menu you want to target. The name of the menu can be found in WP Admin, when you set-up the menu, you had to give it a name.

@hnla I searched for the thread you mentioned which had the solution already posted. Can be found here:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/adding-dynamic-profile-link-to-main-menu-item/

OK here is my revised first function (which works now). It will target a specific menu of your choosing. Just replace CHANGE-THIS with the name of the menu you want to target.
function custom_menu_item ( $items, $args ) {

if ( !is_user_logged_in() && $args->menu == 'CHANGE-THIS' ) {
$items .= '<li><a href="/register"…[Read more]
