Request membership button?

I have set a group to ‘Private’. When a non-logged-in user tries to access the forum, they correctly get, “This is a private group. To join you must be a registered site member and request group membership.”

HOWEVER, there is no ‘REQUEST MEMBERSHIP’ button (on this page, or anywhere else). I didn’t think I needed a plugin. Am I wrong? If so, what plugin do you suggest for such a simple thing (I am not collecting money from anyone so don’t require anything like S2Member).

@agreenmail I see the request membership button in all private group screens. BP/WP versions? What theme are you using? Change to Twenty Twelve theme and check if the request membership button is present in your private group

Using child theme of twentyTwelve. BP 1.7. WP 3.5. Currently on a localserver.

Just switched over to buddypress default. No joy. Then switched back to TwentyTwelve. No joy.

(Should add that I also tried setting up a completely new test site and had the same result. Private group is set.)

(Also just deleted Buddypress on test site and installed a new version manually. No joy again.)

@agreenmail @agreenmail I was using the Twenty Twelve theme when I made the tutorial “How to Join a Private Group” around a month ago in this page https://codex.buddypress.org/user/buddypress-components-and-features/groups/how-to-join-a-private-group/
