    when you click on the button top right next to HOME called NEWS

    what special page is called there ? has a cool format for the latest posts

    how do i link to that page in other ways than what is hard coded into the theme /news

    i had to remove that button because it doesn’t work right for the admin or the member sites

    any comments would be appreciated thanks!

    The ‘news’ URL is a normal blog type list of posts created on the blog that the bp home theme is running. For instance Andy’s post here : http://testbp.org/news/beta-release-scheduled-for-december-15/ was posted on the blog at testbp.org which is the wpmu root blog.

    The confusion comes into play because there is no ‘news.php’ file anywhere. bp lurks in the background looking for URLs that belong to itself and re-writes them into something else. In this case the URL mysite.org/news gets hijacked and mysite.org/index.php gets loaded instead.
