Add the following snippet to your theme’s functions.php:

This will disable RSS feeds in BP.
You’ll also have to manually get rid of the RSS feed buttons.
There are two ways to go about this.
1. Use CSS to hide the RSS buttons
2. Remove the RSS feed buttons via a child theme
YES! Thank you! Thank you! There was absolutely nothing on this anywhere. This helps so much.
@r-a-y , hello again, I was also wondering if there is a similar way to disable/remove the favoriting of posts,activity, etc…
Easiest way to remove favorites is to use CSS:
li#activity-favorites, li#activity-favs-personal-li, a#bp-admin-activity-favs, .activity-meta a.fav {display:none;}
This will hide all favorite buttons and tabs (I think).
Thanks a lot – it helped me somewhere else. So simple!
So I’m a total newb at this and I don’t understand how to disable the RSS on BP. I tried putting the code in to the file you suggested (at the end of the current code) but I’m not sure I’m doing this correctly. Can you offer any help, or some more detailed instructions (in layman’s terms) so that I can make my RSS feed for all site activity go away? I want to have a completely private BP community.
add_action(‘init’, ‘bp_remove_feeds’);
Please ignore my last entry, I cannot remove it.
what css would I need to remove the rss button?
