@hkcharlie Sometimes it only takes posting in the forums to find the answer on your own 
Thanks for posting your solution. Marking this as resolved.
@sudhirsinghinfo if you’re using a child theme of bp-default, then copy over https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.6.1/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php in your child theme’s folder e.g. yoursite.com/wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/registration/register.php Open up the file you copied over and make the necessary changes and save file.
@zkwc @solarprestige add this to your bp-default child theme’s functions.php file
`remove_theme_support( ‘bp-default-responsive’ );`
@mystica do provide more information – WP/BP versions? Single or Multisite? Have you tried changing to BP-default theme and deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress? If this is a new installation, did you go through the Installation Wizard? If this is an installation being updated to BP 1.6, did you go through the Update Wizard?

@mercime is there a code to move the new “my profile” menu item to the first position (to the right of “home”)?

@naijaping That sounds like a great solution, can you explain further? Where do I write that line of code exactly? I tried putting it in style.css and that didn’t work.
After updating to Buddypress 1.6.1 within WordPress 3.4.1 I have the same issue…
How do I access the “Install Update Wizard” again to get functionality back?
I get “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” for every Buddypress admin page.
Is there a solution yet for this? I’m dead in the water right now
Apologies, I have looked, but just seem to cant get the forum to display on the forum page. Have created 2 forums and 2 topics but do not appear anywhere on the page?
Thanks

@theonlytexaspete No bumping pls. Check out the Codex for Group/Sitewide Forums or use google in the meantime.
@kooba initial scan looks like you only need to create two files to fix alignment of BP template files with your WP theme. Open up your theme’s header.php, copy all code, paste code in pastebin.com, click submit, and post the generated URI here. Do the same for your theme’s page.php, index.php, sidebar.php and footer.php files.
OMG @neononcon please tell me how I could be forgiven for my silly delay? Chaos ‘s reigned in my world for a couple of months and I forgot about Buddypress until it turns to wonderful 1.6.
– Yeah, Theme paid.
– Too bad I did not notice about the confused users when both Sidewide and Group’s forums are enabled and now I do not know how to do. But I wonder why Buddypress team does not make this better blending the use of them.
– No spam! Wangward, Akismet and WordPress Hashcash have destroyed them while I was having coffee.
PS: For anyone who wants to ask me questions, mention me, otherwise I may miss you.
@manswab You’re welcome. Marking this as resolved.
Thank you very much for your reply. This seems to be simpler and I will try this.
However, while searching for a solution for this problem, I found a css code to try removing search box. The code is as follows
`.registration #search-form, .activation #search-form { display: none; }`
Then, I used
`.page-id 20 #seach-form { display: none; }`
Removed it from all the pages, except the one I wanted to keep it on.
I figured out using ‘page’ (.page #search-form { display: none; }) removes the box from every page but not blog posts and bp pages (like profile, activity etc.)
Can you help me know how to define ‘blog posts’ and ‘buddypress pages’ to remove the search box from those pages too. I want to say something like following:
`.post #seach-form { display: none; }`
and
`.bp-page #seach-form { display: none; }`
I have tried ‘post’, ‘posts’, ‘post-page’, ‘blog’, ‘blog-page’ etc. and many values for buddypress pages as well but nothing works out.
Please help me figure out the value to put to define the page types.
Thank you very much again
To ‘default’ the listings to Alphabetical would be a modification of the core, however, simply adding the following to your while (bp_has_component()) statement should get them in alphabetical:
`bp_has_groups(‘type=alphabetical’)`
There are other loops that will take this argument as well, but here’s the link to the Groups Loop Codex page.
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-groups-loop/
I did a fresh install of wordpress and BP 1.6.1.
It works perfect on the parent theme but not on 3 column BP theme.

Can you test where it is conflicting.
I updated one of my ttest sites and activity comments started giving me errors, haven’t looked into it further.
Ah hah. I think I see the confusion.
When BP is installed or update, you need to run the Install/Update Wizard. There’s a banner at the top of the page that shows you this: see https://mercime.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/bp-installation-wizard-01.gif
Once you have completed the Install/Update Wizard, the “Settings” link (and everything else) should work. Can people here check they’ve done this, and let me know if the problem’s resolved?
We can make the Settings link only appear once the Wizard has been completed in future releases of BuddyPress; we didn’t think of this. Thanks for the feedback.
Close this, I put everything back one by one, cleared cache in the browser and in the WP_Cache plugin. I also edited out of my htaccess something that had been put there by host support people:
deny from all
I’m not sure what part of this process did it, but it worked.
@susan — backup before any update! Then, worst case, you can restore from the backup if anything goes wrong.
