Hi Duane,
I tried it with WordPress 6.8.1 and BuddyPress 14.3.4. I did not find any issue with regetering. I was able to register and login automatically. There were no duplicate account created.

Do you have auto activation enabled or disabled? Can you share me your registration setting details to help me replicate it?

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi George,
The path to overwrite photo.php is your-current-active-theme/mediapress/default/gallery/media/views/photo.php

Here is a screenshot showing it in twentytwentyfive theme.

Hi Earl,
I am sorry, I got confused with some other plugin i worked on. You are right there are only 3 settings.

Does it work if you disable the required field checkbox in plugin settings? If yes, can you please check again and see if all the required fields from all profile field group are filled?

Hi George,
I am sorry, I could not assist with your queries earlier.

You have correct override. Plea make sure the theme/child theme with override is active.

Unless you are filtering on settings somewhere, the plugin is not aware of the setting from 2(on reverting to 1.x series) and they should work.

Thank you for your suggestions about gallery, here is one implementation we did in past.

Please let me know which version of MediaPress you will be using and I will be assisting accordingly.
