Reply To: Problem Adding New Members to a Group
Hooray!
I finally created a buddypress installation where strangers can become members. It turns out that you must have “Anyone can register” enabled WHEN YOU ACTIVATE BUDDYPRESS. Just a minor detail which only took me a few days of my undivided attention to discover. Well, actually I was distracted a little my a mysql db corruption which required a complete wp re-install.
However, even though strangers can now register, they are still not “members”. When I try to add a friend, I am told that the site has no members. My site has two users: the admin, and the stranger. But when I log in as either one, bp/wp consistently claims there are no members.
If anyone can shed some light on how to become a “member” of my own web site I would much appreciate it. Thanks!
