I changed that and it works, kind of. I’m quickly learning that nothing with Buddypress is as it seems and the support forum you need to budget days to get an answer to things that seem like obvious functionality. i.e. how to limit roles displayed on Member Directory pages and how to set the default role upon setup.

I’m quickly losing faith in the Buddypress community. It completely seems overwhelmed and not interested in what users want, but moreover, what they want to do. I’ve seen this sentiment echoed by others as well. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the project, but at the point I’ve never gotten a reply to an issue in less than 3 days. Just seems the opposite of community when no one gets back to you on direct questions with specific functionality.
I will post in the other areas when I get solutions.
Also, I made this mistake. Make sure you change your permalink to not include index.php. For instance, the members pages should point to your_url/members and not your_url/index.php/members
I turned them both off and switched to 2014 theme. I don’t have 2013 installed, but I’m skeptical that’s it anyway.
Nothing. I activated the Activity page too, nothing.
I’m quite frustrated with this plugin that’s billed to work so well with so many things, yet everyone seems to have tons of issues with it, including what is supposed to be a seamless integration with Membership Pro.
I’d love to adopt, learn, and build out upon it, but I don’t get why the simplest things that it bills itself to do, i.e. Members page, are seemingly monumental issues.
