No confirmation email is sent when someone wants to register.
You can, but it requires a few, little ninja hacks!
“my-groups” is hardcoded in /bp-groups.php in v1.2, however you can remove the current navigation for my-groups, then add it back with your custom slug.
Read this thread for pointers:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/hide-general-settings/
It uses the settings page as an example, but you should be able to get the gist of it.
This is fixed in BuddyPress v1.3, which is about a month away from release.
In the meantime, you can make the following change to fix it:

Hi ms122r,
your question has been already answered in the official support forum of the theme, please have a look here: http://themekraft.com/forums/
How would I add a 728×90 leaderboard ad banner to my header using this theme?
Thanks.
And all these loops are all written in the function file somewhere like modemlooper said? And they some how generate the different pages? Is it the functions.php file that is in the buddypress theme folder?
I also just noticed another quark. If you reply to something you posted on your own wall/activity/whatever it will show up again on your wall just above it. It makes sense for your comments on other people’s stuff to show up on your wall, but when it is on your own stuff it seems redundant.
I have Disable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing? set to no.
Somehow users don’t get added to the Worpress user directory. They can login with their Buddypress userid.
I really need to get them into the WordPress userlist to because I have to add some of them to a user group allowing them in certain restricted areas of my site.
Does anyone have a clue why the synchronizations does not work?
Thanks! Monique

I note you have asked the exact same question on WP support, it is considered bad form to post across different forums with the same copied question however I do also note that you didn’t post the WP one til ~ 2 hours ago.
looking at that theme on WP tells me it hasn’t been updated since June of last year, BP has gone through some major updates since then, personally I wouldn’t bother with a theme that hasn’t been updated to keep abreast of new versions.
This exact same problem has been asked before of this theme on this forum in fact mercime you responded on it.
I find it incredulous sometimes that people can call a simple reworking of a few colours and a few rulesets here and there a theme, given that the theme looks like BP why not just use the current bp and modify it ourself to suit at least that way you would know it worked 
Simply put, different loops and template tags for index, category, single pages etc. in WP. Then you have different loops and additional template tags for various components – activity, members, groups etc – in BP.

My wordpress is in italian, but buddypress plugins is in english. I need the pages HOME, MEMBERS, EVENTS, etc in italian….how to do?
Hi, I am using buddypress and s2member and I know this was working before, but not exactly sure when this stopped working.
After completing the form http://orlandosocialgolfer.com/register/
the user is redirected to the wp-login.php page and not the next page that usually shows up which is the message that says to confirm your acct via email and pick an avatar….what happened?
Hello, just got Buddypress up and running a few days ago and am having a great time exploring the funcitonality.
A question I have is, when users sign up if they don’t upload an image for their avatar they are assigned a generated avatar from gravatar. I would like to bypass that and have their avatar generated from ~20 avatar files hosted on my domain, so the default avatars will be different but will have commonality with the rest of the theme and subject for the site. I.E. i have a sports site and I would like the default avatars to come from sports related photos, which I have saved.
Is this possible? I’ve seen a few threads about changing the default avatar to one specific image but nothing about a random image from a pool of images.
Well with WordPress though you have one file, for one page, one the_content, one category or post type query. The way Buddypress works though, to me it is as if it is magically generating pages out of thin air haha.
Hi,
I find this thread very interesting. I just found it as I was researching on open source social network software.I’ m wondering if someone has tried Joomla’s community builder before.I was specifically looking for a comparison between Buddypress and Community builder (Joomlapolis.com)>
Thanks
Or enable the network:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
http://wpebooks.com/2010/09/how-to-enable-multisite-in-wordpress/
Then click the “add site” button to make /community/. Activate buddypress there. put your buddypress theme on that blog. Problem solved.
@naijaping I am coding it now. will be done soon.

I had similar issues due to a lack of memory on my 1and1 shared hosting.
Buddypress, in single site mode, currently uses about 6.61 mb ( https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-system-health/ ).
I had to remove the suffusion theme, which if i remember correctly used about 4 or 5 mb, replacing it with a customised version of the default theme.
I also removed nextgen (about 2mb?) and other smaller non-essential plugins – am still looking for a replacement for wassup and all in one SEO which both use a lot of memory…
This enabled it to run without error. I still have problems importing images and upgrading plugins which easily use up memory.
@boonebgorges
I tried with Google Chrome and Firefox. Also deleted all the cookies and tried again.
Didn’t work.
I would like to know if BuddyPress comes with a function like this or I should write it.
The target is to list all the messages in the PM page of the user in my website.
Thanks
I’ve reinstalled BP and WP… the error remains but now it does find methods for sending messages.
There is a bug in the get_inbox_count method if you want to know.
( !$unread_counts = $wpdb->get_results($sql) )
return false;
This line in my case had an error, even though the result existed, it entered inside the if and returned nothing as result, while the query existed, the get_results returns an (empty) array. I commented it out and now it works.
But the friends error remains as is. Any ideas?
Hi, been using buddypress for a few months now, it is superb. I have profile fields installed which register displays. Results come up in profile pages, great.
But when the email comes through to admin, it just says the new user is (name & email address). we are pre appproving members as the site is a community for kids. We need to see all the data before we click the approve member (we use the “confirm user registration” module).
Is there a way for the profile fields can show up on the email? this would solve all of our problems.
thanks
Most BuddyPress plugins are available at WordPress plugin repository
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-real-names/
Regarding my last comment on my question #3, I was browsing the BuddyPress plugins list and found this but unfortunately, the link (https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-real-names/) goes to a different plugin’s page.:
BuddyPress Real Names
BuddyPress Real Names is a BuddyPress plugin that use two different fields (one for the last name and one for the first name) to display the Full Name instead of the regular name field. If you have already a community with members; you can use it to replace all the old names with Full Names. […] ..
