== one of the links in the dropdown menu at the top of the page ==
What browser are you using?
== using the buddypress 2011 theme as well. ==
Which BuddyPress 2011 theme? theme URI? Does the same behavior apply when you change to bp-default theme?
To start of with I only want my users to be able to sign up to my site using social networks so I have set this up for Facebook, etc..
I have also changed the code so my admin bar shows up for everyone, included visitors not logged in.
At the moment it shows log in and register. I prefer the wp admin bar so I have defined this over bp admin bar in the wp config file, but bp has still automatically integrated with the wp admin bar I have.
The first this is that I would like to remove the register link and possibly change the Login link to state ‘Register or Login’ but direct only to the login page (to prevent users logging in without a social network connection). Wondering how I do this? is this part of the wp admin bar or bp bar since it link to buddypress registration?
Second thing is that under the main menu in the far right corner of the admin bar, there is a drop down which shows the various sections of buddypress. I love this and think its great, but I am having a issue in my backend where there are some strange wordpress icons showing under the text – see here 
Any ideas how to get rid of these icons? I am using the coffee theme backend plugin in case that helps (have posted on wordpress for this plugin as well)
Thanks
I am stuck again. I worked with my host and had the entire site removed. I removed themes, WordPress, everything to start with a fresh install. I installed WordPress, then BuddyPress and them Salutaion. To my relief, all the pages showed up. I tested it by going going to the template’s “Register” and “Sign in buttons on the first page. They worked fine. In Register on that front pagepull down menu, I clicked the “Sign up instantly!” button. It took me right to the Registration page, just as it should. I starting add in photos, and content to the Why MeggieBooks and the Get in Touch pages. I’ve been careful not to change many settings unless so I would not run into trouble. I have not added any plugins. So I was just showing it off, and pressed the “Sign up Instantly!” button and it now takes me to the front page, or maybe doesn’t take me anywhere. I see that all the content is now gone on the Registration page.
Thanks @mercime– I got the Home Page sorted and changed the general settings, but still can’t view or get the ‘registration’ page functioning. It appears that the pages ‘activate’, ‘activity’, ‘forums’, ‘groups’, ‘members’, and ‘register’ were all created when BP was installed and activated. However, when clicking ‘view page’ on both the ‘forums’ and the ‘register’ pages in the WP pages menu, it links to ‘Home’- the static Home Page I created- instead of a ‘forums’ or ‘registration’ page… Not sure what the issue is. Do I need to reinstall BuddyPress after having changed the general settings?
@markyeoj what I see are some custom modifications on your end that went awry. Change to bp-default theme and deactivate plugins, I believe issues will be corrected.
P.S. after I log in, I get redirected to this same topic and I have to go to dev.freelanceu.net/zim/fitnessdiary/ not good.
@mrlobaloba remember that solving this involved changing to bp-default theme and deactivating other plugins except BuddyPress beforehand and assigning the new Page Attivita to the Activity stream in BuddyPress > Pages and clicking save.
This was what I did in that specific installation – simple really:
1. Go to Network Admin dashboard menu BuddyPress > Components – deactivate activity stream component, click button to save/update.
2. Go to lavori.italianproplayers.com/wp-admin (where you defined BP i.e., where BP is installed) and dashboard menu Settings > Permalinks and click on Save button.
3. Go back to Network Admin dashboard menu BuddyPress > Components – Activate activity stream component, click button to save/update
4. Check that the page Attivita is selected for the Activity stream in BuddyPress > Pages and click save.
5. Go back to lavori.italianproplayers.com/wp-admin dashboard menu Settings > Permalinks and click on Save button.
Note that the above might or might not work for other installations.
I suggest that you set up BP components, pages, forums, etc. and adding BP plugins using the bp-default theme. Test if BP components and plugins work using bp-default theme as well. Change to BP-compatible or BP-ready theme if you’re satisfied that your default installation is working well.
I am using the latest update on the theme. I’d think it must be a change in Buddypress after the recent update, since the theme was properly displaying the menu prior to the BP update. Is the prior version of BP still available for download? The quickest fix is probably for me to re-install that version.
Thank you for taking the time to get back to me. It’s nice to confirm what I suspected. ie, best remove the buddybar on small screens and have the profile menu as the main one. I’ll change the home button to site-wide activity, and then have the profile as a compact drop down for mobile devices. I’ll report back when I get it set up.
I’ve done a default install of Buddypress on a default install of WordPress. In Internet Explorer, the top (default) menu is vertical instead of horizontal, giving me a double header image (when I change the header image).
Also, there is no “create account” – new registration – option anywhere on the site. Only a login box, which goes to a WordPress login screen and does not have any option for someone to create a new user acccount. Any ideas??
I’ve gone though the language files, the ajax.php, all of the .css and .js files just to look for the member page header menu.
I’m looking to edit the positions of certain menu items as well as change the names. Like I want to add Profile to the beginning of the menu, before Activity. (Not show the profile page first, just have the word “Profile” listed before “Activity” in the menu.)
Also looking to change the name of Members to Players. I’ve gone through every plugin and language files, I’ve even edited the bp-custom.php to change the name Member to Profile. Nothing works.
Is there default location, in the BuddyPress plugin directory. where I can find this info?
I had the site working ok, with users signing up to it via BuddyPress.
However, as soon as I mad the site MultiSite, it still has the BuddyPress registration form, but the users aren’t being added to the main site as members, just the network membership.
Users can still log in and join groups, etc but I’m unable to change their role within the admin.
It also means that the main site isn’t showing up in the list of sites in the admin menu.
Overwrite styles from parent theme https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css#L501 in your child theme
Firebug, a Firefox add-on, can help you inspect the element and change the style you need.
@mercime I still can’t figure out how to get it on one line……
Here is header…
http://pastebin.com/r1Pwi5hR
== Is there a way to get it on the same line. ==
Adjust style of the navigation menu to add space for the new profile link on the right of the default navigation UL. Use Firebug, a Firefox add-on, to identify the styles that affect the positioning of the custom navigation and move it to the left
So on my header page I have placed the code you provided and activated plugin to get profile link in main nav meny.
I can either get it one line below (current http://pastebin.com/xJ5Y02nA) or by moving the new code up one or two lines, the “Profile menu” appears above the line above main nav menu. Is there a way to get it on the same line.

Possibly this might help

The
div#subnav.item-list-tabs {
margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px !important;
}
moves the GREEN LINE
I want to move the dropdown menu saying “last active” towards left so that it fits within the white rectangle (green dashed line) without being cropped.
@mercine The above code is controlling the wrong part…..
Flexi-header.php
What should I modify and how do I get the profile/mesages links into the nav links?
http://pastebin.com/ZwCEHiZy
@mercine
Great, got it a little bigger, now back to this….
http://www.fabsie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/buddypressproblem.png
any idea how to move the “last active” to left.
Also not sure how to get part II working.
Plugin Installed
header .php now reads
`
<html >
<meta charset="” />
<body id="” >
`
Not sure what you mean by
“Caveat: you would need to manually change the div classes/ID of the menu UL/LI in the plugin’s bp-profile-menu.php file”
Deleted above code from stylesheet.
http://www.fabsie.com/forums still doesn’t work.
Any other tips.
Thank you @terydinho

from your stylesheet. You’ll then find that the style you pasted below that will work then.
I think I messed it up, not sure what’s wrong…

I copied and pasted stylesheet

Save yourself the hassle if you aren’t a proficient coder and go with @mercime ‘s method of the plugin – that is quite a sweet little bit of kit 
Nice find @mercime
