Im using a custom menu for a widget but not for the main navigation bar. still delete it?
Yes. You can always add a new one. I just want to make sure it’s not a custom menu
I still only have the bp 1.6 and profile menu plugin activated and deleted the menus and still the same thing.
Try creating a menu for the main nav in the admin
if I create the menu, how do I link the profile menu? The easiest way(without coding) in my opinion is to change the members tab to the profile tab and link the tab to the profile page(www.mysite/members/jane-doe. how do i do this?
@charlietech if you have custom menu enabled in Appearance > Menus and if it’s only a profile link you want and not the full set links found in the plugin, see https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/adding-dynamic-link-to-main-menu-item/#post-130679
I put the code at the bottom of the function.php in the parent theme and nothing happened. All i want is to add the profile tab to my original nav menu and its becoming an arduous task. I dont understand why the option isn’t built in the buddypress from the jump(just a check box option) but anyhow, can you suggest something please?
Thanks @mercime!!!!! Ok, I finally got the profile menu to work. How do i take out the dropdown menu?Plus, it still show groups and forums which i dont have set up yet and want to remove them from the dropdown menu.

Glad you finally got it working. What/which dropdown menu are you talking about specifically? In which theme and where is it located (header, sidebar, footer, etc.)?
i updated the plugin from 1.6 to 1.6.1and the profile tab in my navigation bar disappeared. how can i downgrade to the previous one or fix the problem?
Are you using a custom theme? Do you have a menu created in the admin and placed in the primary slot?
Btw you can always get old versions of plugins by going to WordPress.org and on the plugins page there is a developer tab with links
