Just <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/godaddy">check the tag</a> for other discussions. That .htaccess would not work for the forum directory. That just looks like the WordPress rewrite rules changed slightly for your forum directory.

So it is being logged into one or the other but not both at the same time. Oh..hum eschen on "0.9.0.2 Integration with WP 2.5" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/0902-integration-with-wp-25#post-19554 Mon, 29 Sep 2008 21:02:12 +0000 eschen 19554@http://bbpress.org/forums/ I installed bbPress 0.9.0.2 and tried to integrate with WP 2.5 site. The two are at <a href="http://www.my-site/forum" rel="nofollow">www.my-site/forum</a> and <a href="http://www.mysite/blog" rel="nofollow">www.mysite/blog</a> under the root directory. I have two issues: First is with permalinks set to the default (/forum.php?id=1), no problem, I can view profiles and posts within bbPress. However if I use either of the other settings for a permalink, when I click on any profile or post topic within admin control panel or site view, I only get a blank page, no error. Example: the post should be at “forum/post-name”, which is exactly where the link takes me but a blank page exists. However I can view the user profiles registered at bbPress within the WP admin area, so I believe the two are at least partially integrated. The host is GoDaddy and there are no problems with WP permalinks. I have tried the using the following htaccess code with the /forum directory: # BEGIN bbPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /forum/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /forum/index.php [L] </IfModule> Also just having one line: Options +MultiViews Also the exact code generated at bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php Second issue is after login to bbPress, a simple link to the WP admin requests me to login again. Does this take more than a simple link to “…/blog/wp-admin/”? I have checked the cookies and both look identical.

Their support is abysmal. Hosting is fine when there are no problems, but when you have a problem (which you inevitably will), oh, the pain. I don't think they've ever resolved a problem for me, and I've taken to just not calling them and hoping problems resolve on their own. The people you talk to seem to have absolutely no ability to help you. The network engineers seem to keep on top of the problems and they end up fixing things on their own. I suppose this is true with most cheap monthly hosts. They can't be that cheap and offer stellar support. leoleoleo on "Anyone use GoDaddy host?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anyone-use-godaddy-host#post-19376 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 11:58:14 +0000 leoleoleo 19376@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hello finalwebsite, I just paid the minimum 2 month plan USD 4.99 x 2 .I think use wordpress and bbpress is ok. finalwebsites on "Anyone use GoDaddy host?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anyone-use-godaddy-host#post-19373 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 10:13:18 +0000 finalwebsites 19373@http://bbpress.org/forums/ hi, do they offer money back garanty?

GoDaddy's management and customer service is horrific and Dreamhost's filesystem is the slowest I have ever seen on any host. I do recommend for technical novices (maybe even intermediates) that you get a host with cpanel so it's easier to backup and move your entire setup at will. leoleoleo on "Anyone use GoDaddy host?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anyone-use-godaddy-host#post-19367 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 05:39:31 +0000 leoleoleo 19367@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Thanks chrishajer OK now. chrishajer on "Anyone use GoDaddy host?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anyone-use-godaddy-host#post-19350 Sat, 20 Sep 2008 17:37:12 +0000 chrishajer 19350@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/godaddy" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/godaddy</a> You'll see this permalinks discussion a lot with GoDaddy. leoleoleo on "Anyone use GoDaddy host?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anyone-use-godaddy-host#post-19349 Sat, 20 Sep 2008 15:12:20 +0000 leoleoleo 19349@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Anyone use Godaddy webhost?

That was too simple to take this long to resolve. _ck_ on "Pretty Permalinks Not Working" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pretty-permalinks-not-working/page/2#post-17342 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 17:51:49 +0000 _ck_ 17342@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Wait, so was this ever resolved after a year? With WordPress in the root and bbPress in a sub-directory (ie. /forums/) can they both have pretty permalinks? I have an idea if not - simple edit the webroot wordpress htaccess like so: <pre><code><IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/forums/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule></code></pre> where <code>/forums/</code> is the install path of bbpres underneath wordpress. Remember you still need the local htaccess for bbpress in it's own folder. sambauers on "Pretty Permalinks Not Working" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pretty-permalinks-not-working/page/2#post-16138 Mon, 12 May 2008 01:55:06 +0000 sambauers 16138@http://bbpress.org/forums/ @ stitchadoodle The rules are output to screen when you go to <a href="http://example.com/bb/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php" rel="nofollow">http://example.com/bb/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php</a> Obviously replace example.com with your domain. stitchadoodle on "Pretty Permalinks Not Working" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pretty-permalinks-not-working/page/2#post-15966 Sun, 04 May 2008 21:41:38 +0000 stitchadoodle 15966@http://bbpress.org/forums/ **update**: just found <a href="http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks</a> after looking for days, don't know why it took so long to find. this did the trick! ---------------------------- Also having a problem with pretty permalinks. i am on bluehost with the following: wordpress 2.5.1 installed at example.com/blog bbpress 0.9.0.2 installed at example.com/bb i do have my wp akismet key applied in bbpress, but other than that no wp integration. bbpress works fine until i activate pretty permalinks. at that time, i can see all of my topics & stuff, but i just get 404 when i try to get to them. here's an interesting thing i discovered: both installed to my site via SimpleScripts. WP works fine, but bb appears to have no .htaccess file at all. i do see one in attached to a theme, but that's it, and apparently not useful there. since this seems to be the issue, sort of narrowed down, i created an .htaccess file using the code shown by jethro, but i know there's something missing. it didn't break my site, but i couldn't even get to admin area to see if i could make the permalinks work. i'm not a programmer, but if anyone can tell me what code i need to have in the .htaccess file, i can make the file and upload it. thanks! jethrokapinksy on "Pretty Permalinks Not Working" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pretty-permalinks-not-working/page/2#post-15882 Wed, 30 Apr 2008 07:06:31 +0000 jethrokapinksy 15882@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Ok, I just realized that what worked for me only applied to a 'clean' top-level install, and what people are having issues with is installing bbpress in example.com/forums/, because example.com's .htaccess is over-riding example.com/forums/ 's .htaccess file. So here's my example.com (permalinks work great): <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> chmod: 644 And here's my example.com/forums .htaccess content: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /forum/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/(.*)?$ /forum/$1.php [PT,QSA] </IfModule> Any ideas?

I was having trouble installing bbPress on my website <a href="http://www.getfiterator.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.getfiterator.com</a> which was hosted by GoDaddy. You must change the line in the config.php file that says: define('BBDB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change these last few You must enter the correct hostname. You can find information about how to find the hostname for your database at the following link: <a href="http://help.godaddy.com/article/39" rel="nofollow">http://help.godaddy.com/article/39</a> Hope this saves someone some time ( it sure would have saved me some)! _ck_ on "Will PAY to get our forum fixed" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/will-pay-to-get-our-forum-fixed#post-14636 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 04:28:25 +0000 _ck_ 14636@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Well I very much appreciate the donation (though unnecessary) but you've only half fixed your problem by disabling the pretty permalinks you used to have. I figured your priority was getting back online asap. You need to check that your don't have any higher htaccess rules interfering with your bbpress htaccess, and that bbpress's htaccess rules are fresh and correct. Don't use multiviews in your htaccess on godaddy, make sure you go here and get the proper rules to copy into the /forums/.htaccess <a href="http://www.eidolonai.com/forum/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.eidolonai.com/forum/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php</a> I also am concerned that you mention using the word "slug" (singular) in your bb-config.php when it should be $bb->mod_rewrite = slugs; (plural) 3ring on "Had 50+ topics, now getting "No input file specified" error" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/had-50-topics-now-getting-no-input-file-specified-error#post-14614 Sun, 23 Mar 2008 09:33:54 +0000 3ring 14614@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Yes, I saw that in the other post chrishajer (pay for help).
