 Hi @slaFFik

 I believe you can already get what you need using the current state of the
 Rewrites API.

 You simply need to use these kind of filters:

 {{{
 function prepend_community_slug( $root_slug ) {
         return 'community/' . $root_slug;
 }
 add_filter( 'bp_activity_root_slug', 'prepend_community_slug' );
 add_filter( 'bp_members_root_slug', 'prepend_community_slug' );
 add_filter( 'bp_groups_root_slug', 'prepend_community_slug' );
 }}}

 Refresh your permalinks.

 Create a WordPress page like "Community", making sure it has the
 `community` slug, then use a WP Nav Menu or a Site Editor Navigation to
 build your "Community Submenu" with BuddyPress directories.

 I'm not sure we need to do anything particular to the URLs settings tab UI
 like adding an option to store the slug to prepend to the Component's root
 one.

 A new documentation page into this area
 https://github.com/buddypress/buddypress/tree/master/docs/user/advanced
 explaining the above steps should be enough imho.

 What do you think @slaFFik @dcavins @emaralive & @vapvarun ?
