I have activated buddy press and membership pro.
The pages to create registration and login do not show up on all pages? Where are these templates please? I have been following a tutorial on membership pro to create a free membership site.

I cannot find basic reference to how to find these templates. Thanks for the help.

See what page ‘register’ is using. If its not using a page, see if register is in the dropdown box. If not, then create it. All you need to do is put “Register” in the title and save it.
There is a wordpress login page that not an actual page you can edit in the backend. Just go to yoursite.com/wp-login.php

October 15, 2014 at 03:51 #31756Margaret SimsParticipantWhen I go to WP admin -> Settings -> Buddypress -> Pages, and clic view on the Register page there, it taes me to my home page. If I create a new page, how do I format it? I thought there was a page template for registration??
yoursite.com/wp-login.php shows a 40 error. I tried using my own site name as the “yoursite and no results found? Again, I thought a template came for these pages?? Thanks, Maggie
October 15, 2014 at 04:39 #31757sharmstrModeratorHey Margaret. “All you need to do is put “Register” in the title and save it.” That’s really all you need to do. Buddypress uses templates to display the form. There’s nothing you need to put on the page. Its all done in the backend. Maybe some screenshots will help.
The reason it takes you to the home page is because you’re already logged in. Log out and go to yoursite.com/register. And yes, you need to change yoursite.com to your sites url. When I was customizing my register page, I had WP Admin open in Chrome (obviously logged in) and I’d view the registration page in Firefox (logged out). That way I didnt have to log in and out to view changes, I only had to switch windows.
I can tell you that most people put a login link in the menu that will pop up a login modal or the buddypress login sidebar widget. The only time I ever get the wp-login.php page is when I type my password in wrong and get directed over there.
In the screenshots, there is a login menu item under My Account on the Kleo demo site that when clicked will bring up the login modal.
Also, don’t be confused by the wp-login.php screenshot. Your url doesn’t need “Kleo” in front of it.
I hope this helps.
