What do you have in BoardURL:?

Is Enable board URL canonicalization checked?
 
You can try that but I think your .htaccess file may be wonky.

The line RewriteBase /community may need to be RewriteBase /community/

Did you create this file yourself? Do you really need all those <IfModule mod_mime.c> and <IfModule mod_expires.c> statements?
 
That's very odd. A standard Wordpress installation includes an .htaccess file with at least something like this:
Code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
Did you delete it?
