I'm experiencing more problems than the upgrade is worth. Like someone said above, 2.6 is not really anything special.</p> <p>Is there any surefire way of downgrading back to WordPress 2.5.1? I have backups but made a few posts since then and don't want to lose them. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17481 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 06:54:33 +0000 kernow 17481@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Appreciate these things are always developing and improving, though the integration of the two is an important part of their dual improvement, so perhaps some notification via the WordPress panel which says, <em>do NOT upgrade yet if you are using the current version of bbpress</em> perhaps...? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17462 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 01:21:00 +0000 _ck_ 17462@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Again, I'm not an official voice for bbPress, but I don't see how any of the points listed above are incompatible with the idea that bbPress isn't a finished program. All of the points are true, it's a useful and usable program, but it's not done yet.</p> <p>Over time, based on feedback and user code contributions I am very confident that integration will become virtually painless and almost instantaneous.</p> <p>bbPress is only a year old in code development. I'm not sure if you realize that. Polished products like vbulletin are EIGHT years old (and $85 a year plus support plus most plugins and themes are commercially sold)</p> <p>If you are curious about future features you can always <a href="http://trac.bbpress.org/roadmap">browse the TRAC</a> which will give you a rough idea (ignore the date schedule, they're just vague estimates). Remember, it's a community project, you can suggest features and contribute bug fixes too via TRAC. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/properly-removing-wp-bbpress-integration#post-17454 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 21:33:24 +0000 Falcon1986 17454@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thank you.

It's pre-release and therefore in a state of flux. bbPress has always been a bit behind WordPress changes. If you are using bbPress, you are considered an "early adopter" and therefore you have to accept that things aren't going to be perfect. </p> <p>No one but maybe Sam or MDA can say when bbPress will have a release that's 2.6 compatible. There is code in the trunk that supposedly will work but I wouldn't recommend using the trunk. It has to be ported to the 0.9 branch and then tested. I suspect they may even wait for the 1.0 beta release and I don't know if that's two weeks away or two months away.</p> <p>Again, there is nothing special about the WP 2.6 release - it only has a handful of extra features and no security bug fixes over 2.5.1 - in fact people are having a bunch of little problem with 2.6 still so why rush to upgrade? I was able to easily downgrade back to 2.5.1 with no problems. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17434 Sat, 19 Jul 2008 14:11:34 +0000 hotforwords 17434@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I really don't understand the statement that "it will be a while" before they upgrade bbpress! I upgraded to 2.6 as my website (blog) is the most important part and I wanted to add bbpress as a side thing. It confuses me that they company that owns both products is basically telling you to downgrade back to 2.5.1 on Wordpress to get the two things working! I will never do that... I will just have to wait for the bbpress update.. but the "awhile" part really makes me concerned! Is that months from now? Or weeks? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/properly-removing-wp-bbpress-integration#post-17424 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 14:17:33 +0000 _ck_ 17424@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>As long as WordPress was installed first and you were using wordpress tables for users, you should be fine.</p> <p>I'm not sure why you don't just roll back to 2.5.1 though. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/properly-removing-wp-bbpress-integration#post-17423 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:49:06 +0000 Falcon1986 17423@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Good day all,</p> <p>I realize that this sounds like an unusual question, but are there any special instructions for properly removing integration between Wordpress and bbPress?</p> <p>I just upgraded to Wordpress 2.6, which broke cookie sync with bbPress leaving me with a semi-crippled integration. When I was using Wordpress 2.5.1 the login integration worked like a charm thanks to bbPress 0.9.0.2's easier integration with Wordpress. However, I have other reasons for wanting to remove bbPress for the time being.</p> <p>Here is what my approach would be like:<br /> 0. Backup my entire web space (&lt;100MB) and databases (&lt;2MB).<br /> 1. Disable all bbPress plugins.<br /> 2. Delete the bbPress installation (resides in /forum on my web space).<br /> 3. Manually remove the bb_ tables from the shared Wordpress-bbPress database.</p> <p>I am worried about <a href="http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/3">#3</a> and if it is safe to do. What are your recommendations?

Also try logging in as a regular user and notice you don't have login sync anymore between the two programs. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17421 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:21:11 +0000 Falcon1986 17421@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>@Malfhok: Try logging out, clearing your browser's cookies/temporary files and logging in again. Is your login session transferred to bbPress/Wordpress?</p> <p>Because I didn't want to lose my cookies within Firefox (which made me falsely believe that the integration was still working), I tried logging in through Internet Explorer and it was then that I noticed the broken integration. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17420 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 11:59:10 +0000 Malfhok 17420@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Actually, I've been logged into both admins since I upgraded, and it hasn't asked for my password since the initial upgrade. Any ideas why I'm seeing this "bug" and nobody else is?</p> <p>Serious, though. Nobody take that as a sure sign that bbPress 0.9 works with WP 2.6. _ck_ knows more about bbPress than I do. :-) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17404 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 02:19:53 +0000 Falcon1986 17404@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I didn't give any thought to my bbPress 0.9.0.2 installation before upgrading my Wordpress 2.5.1 installation to v2.6. Before the upgrade, the integration was perfect. I didn't notice the "broken" integration since my browser was set to remember my login information, but once I visited this forum, threads like these forced me to investigate and realize the sad truth! </p> <p>I hope an update to bbPress comes soon. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-update-soon#post-17386 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 14:31:09 +0000 _ck_ 17386@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Malfhok, you'll notice that you cannot stay logged into both sides of WordPress and bbPress if you use the admin area.
