However, there is a specific setting in BuddyBoss that you should be aware of, as it can potentially cause issues with the functionality of our plugins, such as problems with calendar navigation, date selection, and other related features.
REST API Setting
Under BuddyBoss → Settings → Privacy, you’ll need to uncheck Restrict REST API access to only logged-in members option and hit Save Settings.

This is because our plugins depend on the REST API for proper functionality, so it’s essential to disable this option.
