Hello.

I just installed WP and BP, brand new, latest versions. My host is HostPapa. I have done no customizations or anything. Just installed WP. Played with it for an hour. Then BP. Everything seemed fine after installing WP but before BP. I do have Akismet installed. I did have bbPress installed for a while, but removing it does not change the following behavior.

So now, with BP, I’m not sure what is happening with “Register” and “Activate”. Here is the behavior:

WP -> Pages: no Register or Activate page Published.
BP -> Pages -> Register = None.
BP -> Pages -> Activate = None.
On a machine where I am not logged in, Register and Activate do not appear in the menu.

Now, at WP -> Pages, with the trash empty, I create a new empty “Register” page (the slug is register). Register appears on the menu, which I expected. But clicking on it takes me to a fully formed page with fields. Is this right? I still have “None” selected at BP.

Now, at WP -> Pages, with the trash empty, I create a new “Activate” page (the slug is activate). Activate appears on the menu. But clicking on it takes me to a page that looks exactly like the Register one.

Now set:
BP -> Pages -> Register = Register
BP -> Pages -> Activate = Activate
The menu items disappear.

I’m pretty flummoxed.

Any help, greatly appreciated.
