Re: [Resolved] Problems Getting BuddyPress Running

site.com/search/ is a bit of an oddity. You’ll note testbp.org/search/ redirects, too, so it’s not a specific problem with your site.

/search/ is basically a search/redirect handler. Based on what parameters are passed in the GET request, it will construct an appropriate search URL for the component that you’re searching for. It’s not a google.com-style search page (although that might be nice to do in the future).

For example, searching testbp.org for “paul” with “members” selected in the dropdown box posts the form to /search/, which then redirects to http://testbp.org/members/?s=paul — which is the appropriate search slug for the members component.
