Friends Tab Not Showing in 1.7

    I have set up a new WordPress site using Turnkey Linux running WordPress 3.5.1 and I installed Buddypress 1.7 and bbpress 2.3. I have enabled Friends in the Buddypress settings page, but the Friends tab does not show up when I log in. When I go to members, I can send a friend request, but I can’t find where to accept the request. On both sides it shows a button that says cancel request, but not accept request.

    This is a private website, so I can’t link to it. But here is a screen shot.

    It doesn’t show up until you have a friend. Make a test user, add them as a friend, login as that test user and accept the friendship then voilà it appears!

    Thanks, I realized that I didn’t have email notifications working. Once I enabled those using WP-Mail-SMTP, I got the friend request and could see the tab. The URL for that page is http://localhost/members/username/friends/requests/
