When I goto a page such as dailytestimony.net/forums/profile/user I get the main blogs 404 error page. Do I need something in a .htaccess file or something?</p> <p>EDIT: I get it with trying to view forums too, I am using name based permalinks.</p> <p>EDIT2: Ok it seems the answer is simple I just needed to RTD (Read The Documentation), Options +MultiViews<br /> &lt;rant&gt;IDK why they just couldn't distribute a .htaccess file with that line with bbpress. Save people the trouble because they mention it in the documentation here but at the verry least it should like to the documentation where you set permalink options. &lt;/rant&gt; </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bb-login-nothing-happens#post-16615 Thu, 05 Jun 2008 15:34:35 +0000 Jameson42 16615@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'm experiencing this same problem.

Despite my BB press directory not being in a sub-domain, looking at the MU forum, a lot of people seemed to be having problems with the 1.5.1 install switching sub-domains with sub-directories. Looking at the forums here again, there was a topic about integrating BB Press with MU on a sub-domain which included adding the following code to bb-config:</p> <p><code>require_once(&#39;/home/mydomain/public_html/wp-blog-header.php&#39;);</code></p> <p>This is the relative path from the server root. Adding this seemed to fix the cookie problem and BB Press 0.9.0.2 is now successfully sharing cookies with MU 1.5.1 for me. This is the only change from the standard integration settings. I was trying all sorts before trying that, with absolutely no joy. Quite why this worked, I don't know... hope it works for you too. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16387 Thu, 22 May 2008 07:00:07 +0000 sambauers 16387@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>WPMU 1.5.1 is probably only compatible with bbPress 0.9.0.2 </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16371 Wed, 21 May 2008 11:00:18 +0000 chilledfresh 16371@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>WPMU is adding some extra information to the end of wordpress' username cookie content.</p> <p>For example, the old cookie content is simply "admin," while the new cookie is "admin" + a number like "%7C1211540101%7Cb954a41e23200ea6951bdeb405dc5237."</p> <p>Perhaps this is some kind of hash? I know WPMU 1.5.1 added a salt key to the wp-config.php file, so maybe that has something to do with it. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16359 Wed, 21 May 2008 03:09:38 +0000 Kostya 16359@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>You're not alone!</p> <p>I just upgraded my site to mu1.5.1 and bbpress to the latest release and now cookies wont work.

I'm still having problems despite being in a sub-folder...

Lazy, I know, but I ended up dreaming of config files the other night. I'm actually feeling pretty numb about the whole thing now... I've managed to integrate before with previous versions of MU and BB, but I just can't fathom this one. Your post (and the absence of others with problems) leads me to believe that this is a problem of my own making. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16281 Fri, 16 May 2008 21:10:32 +0000 italways 16281@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>In addition, I found the problem only happens when you install bbpress in a subdomain of wpmu 1.5.1 site, I changed to install in a subfolder, the cookie problem is gone. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16231 Wed, 14 May 2008 16:12:09 +0000 sambauers 16231@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'll have to download the final release and check integration. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16228 Wed, 14 May 2008 14:01:47 +0000 italways 16228@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I also got problem with integrate with wpmu 1.5, the user sharing is ok, but it got some login cookie problem, when I logged in wpmu, I need login again in bbpress. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-with-mu-151#post-16166 Mon, 12 May 2008 18:51:04 +0000 CaddyJ 16166@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I've been following the development of MU 1.5.1 (seems pretty nifty so far) and from the looks of things, it's now locked as an official release to download on the main site. </p> <p>I haven't however, been able to integrate it successfully with BB Press yet, despite applying the usual checklist and a few things besides.

Integrating the bbPress with the user database works, but then I can't access the bbPress admin console anymore. Here's what happens:</p> <p>1. install bbPress without integration and in the process create an admin account bbadmin.<br /> 2. The bbadmin account works, I can access the bbPress admin screens, etc.<br /> 3. Change the integration settings to point to the WPMU users table. I do NOT do the cookie integration as this is problematic with the new password hashing.<br /> 4. bbPress immediately logs bbadmin out. I can login with WPMU user accounts, but none of them can access the bbPress admin console. More importantly, the bbadmin account can't login anymore.</p> <p>I've replicated this problem 7 times.</p> <p>The bottom line is that I can't use the db integration feature at all.</p> <p>Question - how can I integrate the WPMU users and still access the bbPress admin console? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-and-second-database#post-15850 Tue, 29 Apr 2008 01:38:41 +0000 arlene476 15850@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Is there any doc for a forum in a subdomain? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-secret_key-in-wpmu#post-15823 Sun, 27 Apr 2008 18:45:04 +0000 freshestnoob 15823@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Someone please help!! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-secret_key-in-wpmu#post-15797 Sat, 26 Apr 2008 19:26:54 +0000 freshestnoob 15797@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I've just tested logins.
