I checked all your suggestions. The problem persists: You can see what is happening at:
http://www.preview-classes.com
1) Looks like I mistyped the permalinks settings in the forum post: It actually reads: /blog/%pagename%/ So, I don’t think that’s it.
2) It’s set up for subfolders with multisite, not subdomains. The config.php file has these lines added, just above “that’s all…”: It’s set up right, since it has ‘define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );’
‘define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );
$base = ‘/’;
define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘preview-classes.com’ );
define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );’
3) I deactivated BuddyPress. Activated twentyeleven. Went to site. Problem persists. The home page shows the twentyeleven theme, with the page names from the BuddyPress Pages on the horizontal menu. Click any page: and there is an Error 404, page not found.
Anyone out there got the solution?
Look in wp-admin, in BuddyPress > Components. Is “Settings” disabled?
@r-a-y is correct about 2.
@heruputra – as @Mercime said, you can easily do it with CSS, removing the indent styles so that they appear to be seperate comments to the activity.
You could also use this code – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1870#comment:2
changing the depth to 1 will remove the ‘reply’ button on comments.
You’re welcome. Marking this as resolved then 
1) You can modify your registration template in your theme or child theme to let your users know to use lowercase letters and numbers only:
/wp-content/themes/YOUR-THEME/registration/register.php
2) I believe the lowercase restriction is going to be lifted in BuddyPress 1.6.
Check out how feeds are done in BuddyPress itself.
There are two things you need to do:
1) Create an action listener to tell BuddyPress that the URL you’re on is the feed
2) Next, tell BuddyPress what template file to use for the feed and create an activity loop to generate the feed.
For example, to see how BuddyPress generates the sitewide activity feed:
1) BP creates an action listener for the sitewide activity feed here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.3.1/bp-activity/bp-activity-actions.php#L359
2) BP uses the following template file referenced in step 1 to generate the sitewide activity feed:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.3.1/bp-activity/feeds/bp-activity-sitewide-feed.php#L1
See how that file structures the RSS feed? It uses an activity loop (bp_has_activities()) with specific arguments to sitewide activity.
—
To create an unreplied RSS feed, follow the steps above as a guide.
Instead of an activity loop in the RSS feed, you’ll probably need to use a forum topics loop with ‘type=unreplied’ as the argument.
Hope that gives you a few pointers.
Thanks for all your help!
Have a Great Weekend,

Check out how activity RSS feeds are parsed in:
/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity/feeds/
There are a few hooks you could potentially use to add additional content.
If you want to filter the item description, use the “bp_get_activity_feed_item_description” hook available in the bp_get_activity_feed_item_description() function.
Various other filters are available for the item title, etc. in bp-activity-template.php as well.
This is fixed in the trunk version of BuddyPress:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3682
You’re welcome
@rhek I’ve updated the additions to the bottom of the sidebar-buddypress.php above to include necessary script for the register page, please update your file.
== Could I ask if you do anything different from the instructions in the BP Compatiblity plugin? ==
Nothing different, just compared the HTML structures to determine whether compatibility could be done via the second method xxx-buddypress.php files or the 1st method (changing 16 template files). See how it’s done in Twenty Ten child theme and Twenty Eleven child themes
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-eleven-bp-1-5/
Before anything else, I have updated sidebar-buddypress.php in post above to include necessary script for the register page near bottom of file.
Mercime,
Just curious, you seem to figure out what needs changed pretty quick. Could I ask if you do anything different from the instructions in the BP Compatiblity plugin?
This is what I was working with…

Thanks,
Rhek
Mercime,
Thank you so much! I thought it should be fairly simple, but I had a mess when I tried to do it. I will study what you did and why and hopefully I can help someone in the future.
Thanks again,
Rhek
Open up sidebar-buddypress.php and add the following at the very top, above other code:
`
`
then add the following at the very bottom of sidebar-buddypress.php [updated]
`
jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});
`
Save file.
Upload both to wp-content/themes/shoutbox
Use some or all of the styling mods on BP components used in Twenty Ten https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/
== The site is really slow ==
You know you’re right. And you only have BuddyPress and BP Template Pack plugins activated. Consider moving away from Windows server for WP/BP installation.
== I think footer-buddypress.php is not needed. ==
And you’re right again. Delete footer-buddypress.php from your shoutbox theme folder.
Open up header-buddypress.php and add the following at the very bottom, below other code:
`
@johnjamesjacoby – Thank you! Won’t happen again.
@jetlej – See your topic over at bbPress.org for my response.
Related note, please don’t cross post the same question in both forums. It creates twice the work on our end which makes fixing things take twice as long.
you can add it to your bp-custom.php – https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/
or a small functions plugin (i personally prefer this method ) – http://justintadlock.com/archives/2011/02/02/creating-a-custom-functions-plugin-for-end-users
It MIGHT also work in your themes functions.php file, but i haven’t tested it.
It’s ok, I commented it out of my themes header,php
Not an ideal fix as my header area is now smaller but I think I can fix this when I have time
Well, that helped I think although my child theme style still wasn’t loading at all.
I solved it though by just downloading and installing a child theme off the buddypress website, uploading it, activating it, and then clearing out all the css/code for that child theme. For some reason that worked, but creating the folders from scratch didn’t.
Oh well. Problem solved. Thanks for the tip on teh bp-template pack!
