By searching the forums I found this and similar code to reorder the buddypress tabs
COPY CODE
```
function my_change_profile_tab_order() {
    global $bp;
    $bp->bp_nav['settings']['position'] = 10;
    $bp->bp_nav['activity']['position'] = 20;
    $bp->bp_nav['friends']['position'] = 30;
    $bp->bp_nav['groups']['position'] = 40;
    $bp->bp_nav['blogs']['position'] = 50;
    $bp->bp_nav['messages']['position'] = 60;
    $bp->bp_nav['profile']['position'] = 70;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'my_change_profile_tab_order', 999 );
```

After using different search terms I found this https://archived.seventhqueen.com/forums/topic/group-tabs-how-to-change-the-order Can I use both methods one for profile tabs and group tabs in the same file. I think it is functions.php, which code would go first?

Thanks sharmstr

I have the following code
COPY CODE
```
add_action('bp_init','change_media_tab_position', 12);
function change_media_tab_position(){
    global $bp;
    if( isset ($bp->bp_nav['media'])){
        $bp->bp_nav['media']['position'] = 30;
    }
}

function my_change_profile_tab_order(){
    global $bp;
    $bp->bp_nav['activity']['position'] = 10;
    $bp->bp_nav['profile']['position'] = 20;
    $bp->bp_nav['my articles']['position'] = 40;
    $bp->bp_nav['forums']['position'] = 50;
    $bp->bp_nav['groups']['position'] = 60;
    $bp->bp_nav['events']['position'] = 70;
    $bp->bp_nav['friends']['position'] = 80;
    $bp->bp_nav['send invites']['position'] = 90;
    $bp->bp_nav['notifications']['position'] = 100;
    $bp->bp_nav['messages']['position'] = 110;
    $bp->bp_nav['settings']['position'] = 120;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'my_change_profile_tab_order', 999 );
```
But not all the tabs are lining up to the order plus it added some blank tabs see screenshot

Because it needs the names of the slug. ‘my articles’ isnt the slug. ‘articles’ is. ‘send invites’ is probably wrong too, so is events. click on the link and look at the url to find the slug. Because you didnt use the correct slugs, 3 phantom tabs were created and 3 werent moved.

Oh I see, Now Friends, Events, and Send Invites are out of order could be a plugin issue like rtmedia was. I’ll do the groups now
