BuddyPress Social Theme Log in, Lost Password using default WP theme

Hi,

I am trying out the BuddyPress Social theme now, but I found that if I click at the Log In link in the top bar it would go to http://mysite/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmysite, which has a totally different look and feel as compared to the Social theme. The same happens to Lost Password link.

May I know if there is any plan to fix this?

    Yes, that’s the page that I meant. The signup page and password retrieve page are not themed consistently with the existing BuddyPress Social theme, where the Register page works more consistent with the theme.

    Is there any plan to fix this or not?

    it is not a flaw..the wpmu/buddypress supposed to work like that.

    only register and activate (inside registration folder) are integrated with

    the theme itself.

    for login and lost password to work like the register/activate, you’ll need to

    hack the wp-login.php in root (not recommend like i previous noted) or submit

    a ticket to bp trunk to add this in future bp released.

    not sure if copying wp-login.php to registration folder will make any different, you could try it…
