@djsteveb +1 !
@atfpodcast,
– you go to your menu dashboard and select the menu of your theme (if exist, it should be there)
– you open screen option (top right) on menu admin and select BuddyPress
– you select profile in the left column where BuddyPress appeared and give it a title XYZ
– save and you’re done !
Now you have a XYZ button near Home, About and whatever is already on your theme menu.

No i not in my navigation i was talking about on the widget for my them login. Nother of that works for my situation. I am using the plugin My Theme Login and I want to put it there.=
I would GUESS that you could edit that plugin to add in the code as mentioned above https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-users-can-link-to-their-profile/
Or ask the plugin author for clarification.
I stopped using that plugin when they added the extra security stuff for strong passwords that broke things for me.. however the plugin’s support page is pretty active, and given that he/she has options for redirecting users after login based on role – there may be an easy way to add such functionality to the plugin by asking the plugin author.
There is a bit of info with some of the functions here ->https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/members-navigation-menus/
I see others are asking about bp xprofile fields and such within the them my login support forum,
( wordpress.org/support/plugin/theme-my-login )
so hopefully this plugin author will add more and more BP options – I enjoyed using that plugin some time ago – hope it continues to mature.
Im thinking im out of luck with this for the moment. i will hit the author up for the plugin see if they will take me feature request
