Profile Dashboard URL?

    Hi guys!

    this is exactly the plugin that I need! Im so happy I stumbled across this yesterday

    now I have a few questions regarding the dashboard url.

    my website is redwhiterocket.com.

    if you look at the menu bar, there is a page called Profile.

    I created that so people can access their dashboard, but it’s really tricky… I have Activity, Member, and Registration all linked to that page.

    I was wondering if it’s possible for people to access their dashboard without create a new “Page” and menu.

    If you log into my website, there’s going to be a wordpress toolbar on the very top, with drop down menu. I think this was created by buddypress.

    Is it possible to only access the dashboard using that dropdown menu from the toolbar? Because when I click on profile, or edit, it leads me to an error. maybe I can change the url for the options in the dropdown? not sure how to do that though.

    I hope im making sense.

    thanks so much guys

    just for clarification purposes. just like on the top right corner of this page, it either says Anonymous or Howdy “your username”

    when you’re logged in there is a drop down menu.

    when im logged in on my website and use that drop down menu; if i want to take a look at my profile, i get directed to an error link/page.

    how can i fix this?

    what’s the url for the profile?

    @giantqtipz,

    i would suggest to track down your install first, before trying to ignore a setting error by adding a workaround.

    With a correct BuddyPress setup, the top right menu (under Howdy) contains any links you need to your profile, groups, notifications, etc

    What i see on your site is a profile link (aside forum button) who leads to what is normally the members directory.

    Check your BP components and give each activated one his own page. This is mandatory to get BP to work correctly.

    Check also for the BuddyPres menu if you want to use it with your theme
    dashboard > apparence > menu and activate “buddypress menu” in the screen options (top right corner when on the Menu admin page) if you don’t see it in the left column of this page.

    Finally make a test with one of WP’s theme before activating Dynamic New.

    Configure BuddyPress
