Profile Not Showing up

    Hi,

    Im using WordPress 4.9 & Buddypress 3.x.

    I allow my users to sign up with foreign chars. The account gets created, but for some reason the user profiles do not show up. The user shows up in the /members page, however the link on the their username just links back to the member page.

    However, as an Admin, if I go into the user profile with out changing anything and update the user. Then the Buddypress profile will show up.

    Anyway to manually trigger the hook that handles that process. I even tried manually updating the user’s WordPress profile, and it works, but no luck generating the Buddypress profile.

    Thanks,

    It was because I was updating my display name via wp_update_user that the profile page wasn’t showing.

    So i guess the real questions is, why is it that when I update the display_name via wp_update_user, the profile url isnt updated?

    After looking at the DB, it seems as though the user_nicename was being unset when setting the display_name.

    What I ended up doing was forcing an update of the display_name & the user_nicename and this helped fix the issue.
