@imath Using BP Classic with 12.0.0, the child URL paths are supported.

Also, even after using BP Tools to restore the slugs to their default values, I’m unable to view the directory pages in staging. I’m using WP Staging Pro, which means that the Activity Directory page should be visibile on my website at https://gaelquest.com/stg/activity

However, the directory page is not being found and instead BP is treating it as if it were a blog post.

Sorry! I feel like I’m missing something really obvious.

Regarding the change from Pages to URLs, my current configuration of BP 11.3.1 has the directory pages located as children of another page. Therefore, the slugs read like follows:

somepage/activity/
somepage/members/
somepage/groups/

When I try to edit these slugs in 12.0.0, my changes don’t stick. Will it be possible to maintain my current URLs in 12.0.0?

I found the issue. It’s some sort of conflict with the plugin Popup Maker:

Popup Maker – Popup for opt-ins, lead gen, & more

The plugin includes a targeting feature that I can use to exclude BP pages. When I apply that filter, or turn the plugin off entirely, the problem goes away.

Sorry for the clutter!

Some additional info. I changed my theme to both Astra and GeneratePress in staging to try to confirm if this is a bug with the Kadence theme. The same behavior (the addition of the BR tags) appears in those themes as well–but, again, not with Twenty Twenty-Three.

Also FYI: I had this working as desired (no BR tags) in Kadence within the last week or two.
