Links to ‘/username/’ redirect to home page

    Not sure how this happened, but anytime I click on a user icon, I get sent back to the front page. I can get to all the components under a given username, but not username by itself. In other words, on our site, “alongside.org/new/matt” isn’t working but /matt/profile is. Don’t get it.

    OK, I’m stumped … and I haven’t been able to find anything that matches my issue in the forums. To help diagnose a bit, I took down all plugins I’ve recently updated or added … no effect. Since I recently upgraded to 1.2.6 I made sure that my theme was all patched up … still no effect. The only thing I can think of that may have triggered this was that I attempted to install gpress, ran into errors and uninstalled. Could gpress have screwed with the profile addresses?

    Hey, can some one grab this one for me? This really is a significant hassle as our sight is just getting implemented and this will be a real frustration to my natient community. If it’s a dumb mistake on my part, please tell me in no uncertain terms! But I don’t think it is and need some help getting it sorted! Thanks.

    Any chance this is an .htaccess issue?

    Have you done the basic first steps – deactivating your plugins, and switching to the bp-default theme – does the problem still persist in this case?

    Thanks so much for the reply Roger.

    I have tried all those, but realized I missed one other possibility: bp-custom. Sure enought, that seems to be the source, though I’m not sure why. Strangely enough, of the various hacks that I have there, the problem seems to be in the standard “define” functions prescribed in the bp codex pages.

    `define( ‘BP_ACTIVATION_SLUG’, ‘activate’ );
    define( ‘BP_ACTIVITY_SLUG’, ‘activity’ );
    define( ‘BP_BLOGS_SLUG’, ‘blogs’ );
    define( ‘BP_FORUMS_SLUG’, ‘forums’ );
    define( ‘BP_FRIENDS_SLUG’, ‘friends’ );
    define( ‘BP_GROUPS_SLUG’, ‘groups’ );
    define( ‘BP_MEMBERS_SLUG’, ‘directory’ );
    define( ‘BP_MESSAGES_SLUG’, ‘messages’ );
    define( ‘BP_REGISTER_SLUG’, ‘register’ );
    define( ‘BP_SEARCH_SLUG’, ‘search’ );
    define( ‘BP_SETTINGS_SLUG’, ‘settings’ );
    define( ‘BP_XPROFILE_SLUG’, ‘profile’ );

    define(‘BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT’,’updates’);`

    Any idea why one of these would be throwing the system?

    @rogercoathup

    could it be because the BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT doesn’t exist…. what is ‘updates’?

    Delete your define for the default component – does it work now?

    Aha … my bad. One more lesson in paying attention. Thank you very much for your help!
