What theme are you using? If child theme of bp-default, copy over footer.php of bp-default theme into your child theme folder. Open it up and delete
`

“<?php printf( __( 'Proudly powered by WordPress and BuddyPress.’, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘http://wordpress.org&#8217;, ‘http://buddypress.org&#8217; ) ?>“

Are you using the bp-default theme?

If not you need to copy /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/blogs/ to your WP theme.

Preferably, you are already using a child theme.

== What’s the way to get back «Activity» as tab name instead of «Home»? ==

Using custom menu is the easiest way. If you’re using bp-default or child theme thereof.

@tahirtaous I’d use WP_Query on archives.php from available ways to do so in this article http://digwp.com/2011/05/loops/ Cheers.

@drmikelbrown The default theme did work with mine when I tested it after having those errors, so, you have a deeper issue. I purchased mingle It’s $40 and the ultimate theme to totally customize your website http://themeforest.net/item/mingle-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/235056 BTW, my htaccess file looks like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
php_value upload_max_filesize 16M
php_value post_max_size 16M

I have subdomains and not sub directories.

I had that same error on my site. The problem was my theme. Everything else worked perfect except the 404 errors. I had to purchase a BuddyPress 1.5 for sure compatible theme and now my site is running smooth.

I had another idea using get_template_part for the meat and just have files with the structure markup. This would, on the n00b eye, look easier to fix.

get_header

content
padder
get_template_part
padder
content

get_footer

Have you gone thrue the setup of Buddypress (its in on the panel somewhere. ) and switched theme to a buddypress compatible one?

Interesting idea. Patches welcome

Add this to style.css
`table.forum tr > td:first-child, table.forum tr > th:first-child {
padding: 15px !important;
}`

You should also install the Firebug add-on for Firefox to help you along with styling your site.

The question about theming/shortcodes is not really related to the issue of WP pages in BP 1.5. BP 1.5 uses WP pages in order to integrate into WP menus, to make it easier to change permalinks, etc. There is no integration with the page templates in your WP theme.

In the future, there will be better integration with a wider variety of WordPress themes. Test out the new bbPress to get a sense of what it might look like. It might not involve shortcodes, but it will be something equally easy. In the meantime, the Template Pack is your best bet.

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

The Header and footer and sidebar and content area are usually in every WordPress template. You need to edit the BuddyPress files added to your theme to match the structure of your theme.

Sometimes the content area is called container or wrapper or something else. You need to match the containing div around the content to the BP files.

In step 3 it shows you a diagram of div markup. If you have never edited code you may need to hire someone to do this. On complex themes it can be a challenge.
