Members Slug Redirects to Home

All of a sudden after an update, my Member page (i.e., /members) redirects to the home page. If I change the slug to “membership” or some other name and set that as the Member page, it will then go to the page with all the members. I have changed the permalinks several times and I cannot set the page slug as “members”. Any thoughts on this? I am using a Genesis Child Theme. I’ve switched to several default WordPress themes and still cannot get the /members slug to work.

Can you say what the update was? Was it a BuddyPress update or a WordPress update (or some other plugin), or do you know?

Thanks!

Unfortunately not. I just happened to notice it on a demo I have set up. I’ve checked all functions, deactivated all plugins except BuddyPress, changed themes, and it happens with the default too. I switched the permalinks to default, saved, switched back. The /members slug will not work. No pages/posts in trash. But if I change it to even /members1 with a 1 after it, it works but the word “members” does not. I am just baffled.

And the page actually will come up with the page id (/?page_id=656), but it’s blank. When it set it back to the post name, then the page redirects to the home pag.

So I have it resolved. I went Incognito and the page pulled up so then I added a plugin called Busted after I cleared my history (which I had already done before but didn’t have Busted in there). That made the page show up in the regular browser. I’m still baffled why it was only that one page. But oh well.
