If you enable root profiles, you can accomplish that.
Add this to wp-config.php:
define ( 'BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES', true );

Wow the enable root profiles is exactly what I was searching for. Thank you
I”m curious if there is any logic built in for checking usernames against existing directories to avoid conflicts.
Say I have a directory called /photos/ and if a member tries to register with the username photos would that stop him from registering the name to avoid the conflicts?
also, does it effect the template structure when i use that override?
Hello r-a-y
I tried the change to wp-config and cannot get things to work. No I’m sorry if I’m in the wrong thread, but i think this has something to do with my issue. Trouble is, everything for me would fall under http://www.stangsgarage.com/stang5_0 and so on but I get 404 on these pages.
Again, adding define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES’, true ); did not make a difference. I feel like I am missing something easy here, but not sure what.
Or if I goto http://www.stangsgarage.com/activity/ I see
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\stangsgarage.com\httpdocs\activity\index.php on line 1
on the page
Links to read or ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Stang
