Re: 404 errors when installing BP with WP in a subdirectory.
I’m currently running an active site, and having followed the instructions in https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory I’ve got all my files in a mysite/wordpress file with everything in the wordpress folder but the index.php and .htaccess files in the home directory. that’s given the whole of my site a mysite address rather than a mysite/wordpress address.
This sites been up a while and works well, but I’m having trouble getting BuddyPress to work on it. Whatever I try, I seem to end up with half the site still on mysite (whilst everything in mysite/wordpress is coming up unobtainable); or half the site on mysite/wordpress (whilst everything in mysite is unobtainable).
There’s quite a bit of activity on the site, so I don’t want to start from scratch, but I would like to get BuddyPress on it. Has anyone worked out how to do this yet?
I tried the solution at https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/permalinks-setup-with-wp-intalled-in-subdirectory-and-indexphp-in-root?replies=23#post-45920 (which is marked “Resolved”) but it didn’t work for me.
