How To Match BP Components With BP Pages?

    @engine44

    I am working through the configuration of a new BP install.

    I’m using the current versions of BP/WP and doing a localhost install.

    With regard to components, the BP instructions say to first select the components you want to use on the components screen. I selected 9 of the 10 available components.

    The instructions say that BP automatically creates pages to match the chosen components. I read elsewhere on BP that BP does not create those pages. Since I saw no evidence that the pages had been created, I manually created them.

    Next is the pages screen:

    In the area titled Directories, only 3 components are shown. The opportunity exists to assign Pages to those 3. But what about the other 6 components I chose? How do I get them to show on this screen? How do I associate them with the pages I created? Thanks for any help.

    Not all components have directories. Take friends for example, that component doesn’t have a directory. However, members, groups and activity do.

    ok, that’s good. Do I still need to associate the pages I made with all the components I chose? Thanks

    Only for components that have a directory. Also, you will need to do that for the “register” and “activate” pages (this is all done via Settings > BuddyPress > Pages).

    Very good, thanks. One last question. Should I delete the pages that I created for the components that don’t have Directories?

    Yes. Delete and also clear trash 🙂
