Buddypress 2.6 front.php integration with WordPress Menu

    Thanks to the updates implemented in BuddyPress 2.6, I’ve been able to load a front.php page as a “member landing page” for individual community members (Thank you @imath and others!!).

    However, I do not see a way to integrate a nav link to this new landing page in the WordPress menu I have in the header. I might expect an option under Appearance –> Menus –> BuddyPress –> Logged-In for this page (i.e., a checkbox with label “Front” or “Home”) similar to the components that are already there (e.g., Profile, Notifications, Settings, Logout).

    Am I missing a simple way to make this happen?

    Thanks in advance for any insights!

    Okay, just in case anyone else is wanting to do this, my developer helped me implement a solution!!

    Here is the function he wrote and placed in the bp-custom.php file. 

    function add_front_menu_item( ) {

    global $bp;

    $args = array(
        'name' => __('Home', 'buddypress'),
        'slug' => 'front',
        'default_subnav_slug' => 'public',
        'position' => 10,
        'show_for_displayed_user' => false,
        'screen_function' => 'bp_custom_user_nav_item_screen',
        'item_css_id' => 'custom-class'
    );

    bp_core_new_nav_item($args);

    I hope this helps someone else save time and frustration!
