BuddyPress.org

Seems to me then that you need to ask WordPress.com support what they have done with it. Reinstalling BuddyPress is unlikely to fix this, it sounds more like that this is not actually true BuddyPress you have running, either that or you’ve not enabled groups but you shared the components page the other day and you had it selected.

Do you have the pages settings screen at all? There should be pages for Members, Activity and Groups at least.

You can find out which page it is by going to Settings>>BuddyPress>>Pages and see the name of the page assigned as the groups directory

The groups directory is a page allocated to display all of your groups in the BuddyPress Pages settings, it normally has the url https://yoursite.com/groups.

It’s really difficult to support wordpress.com users, we have no access so have no idea how BP works on there.

You could try:

function bpex_set_member_default_nav() {
 
    if ( bp_displayed_user_id() == get_current_user_id() ) {
        bp_core_new_nav_default (
            array(
                'parent_slug'       => buddypress()->activity->id,
	        // other "activity" sub_nav slugs : personal favorites friends groups
                'subnav_slug'       => 'mentions',
                'screen_function'   => 'bp_activity_screen_mentions'
            )
        );
    }
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_set_member_default_nav', 20 );

This is probably more to do with how you’ve setup WordPress rather than BuddyPress. BuddyPress redirects based on what WordPress thinks is the right URL for the site, it does not hard code https, but simply get the site address from WordPress.

Yep BuddyPress can be, it’s why I set up that site, unless you are saying my site is complicated

in the menu’s page, check the Screen Options at the top right of the page, BuddyPress is probably not selected.

I’m not sure there is an ecommerce plugin that supports BuddyPress out of the box. However most have shortcodes that allow a seller to display their shop. I guess what I’d need to know is how you want your buddypress site to work. I recently helped someone looking to set up ecommerce via groups where the group admin could set up a shop for the group. Basically we set up a post assigned to the group and let the user add their shotcodes there and made sure the post had it’s own Shop group menu item that linked to the post.

This method suggested by danbp works:

help with default activity stream tab

By the looks of things you are trying to change the colours of the profile fields, so something like:

.profile-fields {
    color: blue;
}

Should work

However something more specific is sometimes required, such as:

#buddypress table.profile-fields {
    color: blue;
}

These are the support forums for BuddyPress.
You have a better chance of getting an answer if you use the support forum for Buddypress Group Email Subscription .

If you are good with html, css and php, you can overload BP themes and make changes.

afaik, you can do the same with bbPress templates for forums, but you should ask on their support forums.
