@ChrisClayton Another thing about loop posts you gave to me and that only now I saw: I tested, everything worked out, but it appears only a certain amount of posts made that author, correct. But there is a link to show more of that author’s posts, in the tab?
aha, what code were you trying to use?

@ChrisClayton Thank you very much, worked perfectly! 
Do you have any mail for us to talk about programming (gtalk)?
Since we are speaking of tabs, how do I change places, for example: the subnav Edit from Profile tab to the Settings tab?
Are you trying to delete the group forums because a) you don’t want to use forum functionality on your site, or, b) you want to delete all the forums so it recreates new empty forums for you?
BuddyPress shouldn’t be doing that. Are you running any other plugins?
Why is your banner in an h1 tag ?
`
function bp_head_action() {
remove_theme_support( ‘bp-default-responsive’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_head’, ‘bp_head_action’);
`
I haven’t tried it but it was suggested in: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/default-theme-menus-on-narrow-screens-or-old-laptops/#post-126618
@mercime Thank you very much. This clarification and affirmation is very helpful for me. I appreciate you taking the time to respond.
Warm regards,

Running sub blogs is a WP feature ‘Multi Site MS’ – for guides on setting your blog to use the MS feature you need to head over to the WP codex and find the guide there for setting up MS
its under the default buddypress theme, in the registration folder you will find the register.php
bp version 1.5.5
I didn’t even find a register.php file in my install. Where is it at? and what version are you using?

Some basic information for multiple BuddyPress sites in one WP installation.
1. Install WordPress
2. Create a Network of your WP installation
3. Install/activate BuddyPress plugin
– BuddyPress is activated by default for the whole network. So by the same token, there is only one instance of BuddyPress for the whole network.
4. Make your BuddyPress “multisite” (separate instances of BP in one WP installation)
a. BP Multi-Network plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-multi-network/
– Requires either free https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-multi-network/
or the premium http://wpebooks.com/networks/
– In effect, you need to create networks out of each subsite of your original network,
then install the BuddyPress Multi-Network plugin to have separate BP installations in each
“sub-network” … you get what I mean 
OR
b. BuddyPress Multi-Network plugin http://buddydev.com/plugins/buddypress-multi-network/
– simply, separate BP site for each WP subsite. You should check this out
Best people to ask about the WP/BP Multi-Network plugins above are the plugin developers ;-p
Adding links to the profile nav can be done with the bp_core_new_nav_item() function.
Refer to Codex: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/functions/core/bp_core_new_nav_item/
thanks, it taught me in positioning, but what about adding a links on the menu?
Within activity/activity-loop you will want to change bp_has_activities to include scope=friends.
CODEX: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/
Theirs no backend feature like WordPress’ has for navigation menus.
However, this might help…

@fmeroney Was this what you where after?
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_redirect
With bp_loggedin_user_domain() as the location
woops, just noticed that i accidentally put in $bp->loggedin_user->domain – Sorry! change it to – $bp->displayed_user->domain
Should fix your issue assuming that it’s grabbing the author name correctly in the ‘loop’. [haven’t tested it] If it doesn’t work you may need to use (off the top of my head)
`<?php
$args = array( ‘author’ => bp_displayed_user_id() );
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
// The Loop
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
// Do Stuff (This is where you would put the_title, the_content etc. whatever you want to show)
endwhile;
endif;
// Reset Post Data
wp_reset_postdata();
?>`
@mrjarbenne, that looks fantastic.
I am also looking for an avatar chooser for my new members. So that they will at least have avatars corresponding to their gender.
What Andrew Scott did with the Doppelme looks like an overkill for me.
But how does it actually work?
When they select the doppelme avatar, it automatically becomes the user’s buddypress profile avatar?
Maybe a default library of 10 images to choose from will be already a great addition
Hi @mercime, thanks! I will try that tonight!
