 Hello team,

 I recently received a report from a user about the missing "Page
 Attributes" meta box for a directory page, after the post type change in
 BuddyPress 12. The missing features are:

 1) Select the parent page and the order of the subpages (there is already
 a ticket on this). This means that a directory can be under a page, or a
 page under a directory, or (?) a directory under a directory.

 2) Select the page template for a directory, among the custom page
 templates provided by their theme.

 Some themes (e.g. Astra) don't rely on page templates but do allow users
 to customize the page structure on a page-by-page basis, and this feature
 is also no longer available after the post type change in BuddyPress 12.

 I don't know if it's easier, for BuddyPress and theme authors, to
 implement these features with the new "buddypress" post type or go back to
 the old "page" post type. What do you think?
