Google around, there is already a BuddyPress 2011 theme created
But I want to know how I can do it myself so I can do this with other themes as well.
I did what I’ve read in the codex but still didn’t work.
Now I’ve got a fresh WP installation AND a fresh BP installation.
WP 3.2.1 BP 1.5 using BP default theme.
still doesn’t work. can someone take a look and give me advise?
It looks like you haven’t set up your permalinks correctly, or that there is a problem with your .htaccess.
Go to Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks. Make sure that you have chosen an option other than the first option, and click Save. (Save your settings even if you don’t change them – just saving them can trigger things to work.)
If the site links still don’t work, check in the root of your WP installation for a hidden file called .htaccess. Is it there? What are its contents?
Do you happen to know what operating system your server is running?

Since i upgraded with buddypress 1.5 i dont have the login screen any more and i can see the wiget boxes underneath. I am wondering if i should reinstall wordpress, but how can i do it through the dashboard.
I want to emphaise that i want to RE-INSTALL WORDPRESS without losing my other plugins… it is possible through the dashboard.
@Flora1234 Couldn’t you re-install your wordpress through http://yousite.com/wp-admin/update-core.php ??
If that’s what you want then you can just click on the re-install link. Also you won’t loss your plugin, but i do suggest you backup your database just in case.

Someone took a look at my website and suggested that it could be a rights problem.
How can I get this right?
I don’t know how to make this work on Windows. It’s not really a BuddyPress problem – I’m guessing that a normal WP installation won’t work either, if you turn on pretty permalinks. Have a look at https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Permalinks_without_mod_rewrite
