Buddypress pages overriding my theme

Hi Buddypressers!

I am starting to configure my site and i have realized that when there is a buddypress page, this page can’t be edited from my admin side. I am creating a site using jupiter theme and visual composer, but i can’t add any content to that page, and te page won’t even show the title.

Am I doing something wrong?

Maybe this is an obvious thing, but i’m pretty new in this and my knowledge is pretty limited.

Thanks in advance!

that’s correct, BuddyPress filters the the_content of a BP page so anything you add to the content editor will not show. BuddyPress uses your themes page.php for all its pages so its kind moot to add content in the editor unless its something to display site wide. You are better off hooking to bp template hooks to display extra content on specific pages.
