    Thanks Brajehs, this has pointed me in the right direction. I have a little more research to do, but the bp_screens has definitely helped!

    I’ve copied the register.php code but it is not working fully.

    Here are my steps so far.

    1. Created child theme “astra-child”
    2. Copied register.php into astra-child/page-register2.php
    3. my-site.com/register2 now loads fully only if I change <?php if ( 'request-details' === bp_get_current_signup_step() ) : ?> to <?php if ( true ) : ?>. Otherwise only changes outside the if will show.

    How do I get the bp_get_current_signup_step() to work so the form displays.

    Ah, this gives me 2 questions. I know a little about actions/filters, but still a little fuzzy on how pages load in WordPress.

    1. What does buddypress first call when a user navigates to mysite.com/register, or even if they go to a random page like mysite.com/register22. I feel like this is important for me to understand. What’s the first .php to run or file to run?

    2. I tried copying the register.php into my child themes root folder, but the page only showed blank. I followed an old post and moved it to child-theme/buddypress/members and worked. What’s preventing me from directly putting it into my child-theme root folder?

    Ah, it looks like I’m missing some basic knowledge.

    When I go to my-site.com/register, how does that get rendered? How does bp_screens work?

    Hello Keymaster, thank you for the reply. How does the form know to call the “bp_core_screen_signup” button on submit. I don’t see that function referenced anywhere on the page.
