That setting is meant to prevent an unapproved logged-in users from accessing any BuddyPress page except his own BP profile until they are approved. Non-logged in users would get redirected to the homepage.

t sounds like it’s possible that you have a BuddyPress page of some sort set to be your homepage perhaps? I know we have filters that can be used to set a custom location to redirect visitors to if you want to try that out.

Will wait on confirmation about the homepage setup first though, before diving too far down potential solutions.

Yeah, that’d do it. A case of “oh, this is buddypress, i should redirect to the homepage. oh this is buddypress, i should redirect to the home…” you get the idea.

Welcome.

For info sake:

/**
 * Filters the URL to redirect to for logged out users.
 *
 * @since 4.3.0
 *
 * @param string $value URL to redirect to.
 */
$logged_out_url = apply_filters( 'bprwg_logged_out_redirect_url', get_bloginfo( 'url' ) );

To utilize:

function my_custom_logged_out_redirect( $original_url ) {
	return 'https://mozilla.org';
}
add_filter( 'bprwg_logged_out_redirect_url', 'my_custom_logged_out_redirect' );

This quick example would send people to Mozilla’s website if the user is logged out. You can add extra logic/code as needed in that my_custom_logged_out_redirect() function to programmatically get a URL or do whatever you need.
