Description
I've seen a few reports on the forums about the registration page and "Edit Profile" button not working correctly when the Extended Profiles component is enabled.
It appears this issue dates back quite far. At least BP 1.8 or even earlier:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/bad-link-to-profile-edit/
More recent:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/registration-and-edit-profile-issue/
The main problem is sometimes the wp_bp_xprofile_groups DB table sets the Base group at an id that isn't 1.
The only way this can happen is if the Base group is deleted somehow and then recreated, which auto-increments the id.
Since we do manual checks for id = 1, this breaks things like the registration page and "Edit Profile" link (/members/USER/profile/edit/group/1/):
This might be related to this:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.5.3/src/bp-core/admin/bp-core-admin-schema.php?marks=412-414#L409
Looks like this dates as far back as v1.2.
