BuddyPress.org

I have a couple of posts and pages in my wordpress 3.4.2 site when I fetched, activated, and installed BP 1.6.1. Now those pages are missing. What did I foul up?

Also, I have tried to create “new page” content and it seems to work well. However, I cannot find where the content went or how to make it visible.

Clearly, I’m missing something fundamental about what is going on.

=====================
CLARIFICATION
The issue here is more clearly one in which WordPress site content (pages) became not visible after running the BuddyPress “install wizard”. If I look at POSTINGS, the content seems to exist. However, nothing I’ve tried makes the content visible.
In addition, my efforts to recreate the content now that the BP wizard has run don’t seem to work either. As described, I can POST or create NEW PAGE, but cannot make it appear.
=====================

Thanks in advance,
