So long as you have groups enabled then you should see create group in the Groups page, and also as an option in the WordPress toolbar under groups.
I thought so too, but I cannot, either under profile or in groups, find a link to create a group.

AndersYes you don’t get it as an option in your profile pages, it’s there in the Groups directory and also in the adminbar dropdown menu under groups.
I do not know what you mean with “Groups directory”. I do not have my site on an own server.
I have a WordPress account who handels my site.Maybe there’s something wrong with that I can’t find the right page here for “usergroups” in BuddyPress settings:
(I’m sorry I can’t get this picture in English!)And in front end “Profile” I can not see anything that says “Create group”.
Can I possibly get this fixed if I reinstall BuddyPress?

SwedenThe groups directory is a page allocated to display all of your groups in the BuddyPress Pages settings, it normally has the url https://yoursite.com/groups.
It’s really difficult to support wordpress.com users, we have no access so have no idea how BP works on there.
The lin you gave me do not exist
“The page you were looking for doesn’t exist.
We think the page may have moved.”You can find out which page it is by going to Settings>>BuddyPress>>Pages and see the name of the page assigned as the groups directory
No it is not. I must have deleted it. Thats why I as if I can fix it if I reinstall BuddyPress
Do you mean there’s no page assigned? or you can’t see the setting?
Yes, the page is realy missing!
Seems to me then that you need to ask WordPress.com support what they have done with it. Reinstalling BuddyPress is unlikely to fix this, it sounds more like that this is not actually true BuddyPress you have running, either that or you’ve not enabled groups but you shared the components page the other day and you had it selected.
Do you have the pages settings screen at all? There should be pages for Members, Activity and Groups at least.
This is what WordPress support say:
It may be an issue with your theme not including that feature. I would maybe contact BuddyPress with that link to the forum post and ask them to clarify the exact issue.
Theme’s don’t interfere with settings pages I’m afraid, You could try switching to the 2017 theme to test. Could you share a screenshot of the BuddyPress Settings page?, you should have four tabs, Components, Options, Pages and Credits. Do you have those?
Now I have deactivated most plugins but I still go back to outloged user wen I login
Why do I get this answer in my thread?

Do you send answers to the wrong user!?!
No I was responding to what wp.com said about it being the theme that could be causing the issue.
Anyway, no we know you can see the BuddyPress Pages Setting and know how to assign your groups page buddypress, you can check to see if you get the groups directory to show.
