doing it this way, everything works except my custom comment action.

Update: nvm it only worked flawlessly when I had it all to the default wp-login.php.

When someone registers to my site they are redirected to my buddypress register.php and within that page is would say thank you for registering please check your email for activation link.

I wanted to place a resend activation email on the same page so I placed this code in that register.php file

$resend_url=( ‘If you have not received an email yet, click here to resend it.’, ‘buddypress’ ), esc_url( $resend_url ) );

The problem is ran into is the plugin wp security I use has an option to change the wp-login.php to whatever I want so I just renamed it to /login.

I then changed the wp-login.php in the code to login?action and the linked redirected to the correct wp-login now the /login page but never sent the resent activation email.

I also have it when a user trys to login without activating first it would post an error on the login popup with the resend activation email, if I keep wp-login.php it works but if I change the wp-login.php to just /login it won’t work.

Those two issues have me confused. I’m totally new to php and recently been studying as much as I can but all the documentation out there had me struggling to Figuer this out.
Does anyone by chance have any insight on this?

Hello, I found the solution for the same.

Customize the URL Slugs of BuddyPress Components

this is the link that is helpful for me.
There are many internal configuration settings that can be changed by adding a configuration definition line to our wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php file.

My another concerned is that In the message there is a button of starred and also a feature to make a message as a star marked so i want to disable/remove this feature form the message please help me in this if you have any idea

Hi @henry,
There are some labels like friends, nitifications, messages etc we want to change thees labels. Suppose we have to change Friends to Member and also url corresponding. How we can chnage all the things in the buddy press because buddypress donot provide any settings to change so please help me.

Hi @Henry Wright,

I use the buddypress in my website and select the page for registration in setting of the buddypress. By default it is taking the default page.php layout like there is side bar my default page.php so i want to chnage the default page to my template and add disffrent page side at registration page.

I found the solution. I tested the script I had tried before…but this time it worked. If anyone else is interested, see the script at the end of this post:
