I have a bbPress forum at 1&#38;1, in a subdirectory of WordPress installation, and I never did get permalinks working (I last tried 18 months or so ago.) Now that you have shown it can be done, I will take my own advice, which was provided here first by hmcnally, and see if I can get them working again.</p> <p>Glad it worked for you. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/1and1-hosting-problem#post-16538 Sat, 31 May 2008 21:26:59 +0000 cliffmaster 16538@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>OMG ! It worked ! Thanks so much chrishajer. But I must add that I moved bbpress to a upper level above my WP install and used a sub domain for the forums. Because following 1and1 instructions stated above in their email response, it did not solve the problem until I placed</p> <p>Options -MultiViews</p> <p>At the top of the htaccess file. </p> <p>Now permalinks work just fine.</p> <p>Thanks again ! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/1and1-hosting-problem#post-16537 Sat, 31 May 2008 18:01:08 +0000 chrishajer 16537@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Does this help:<br /> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/dropping-multiviews-support#post-16050" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/dropping-multiviews-support#post-16050</a></p> <p>Your setup is just fine with the directory structure you have setup (WordPress as the root for the domain, bbPress in a subfolder.) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/1and1-hosting-problem#post-16536 Sat, 31 May 2008 14:11:38 +0000 cliffmaster 16536@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Anyone else have this problem with 1and1 ?</p> <p>I cannot get pretty permalinks to run, even after following directions.</p> <p>I wrote to them</p> <blockquote><p>I am running wordpress and bbpress in the same root directory<br /> <a href="http://mysite.com" rel="nofollow">http://mysite.com</a> is wordpress install and<br /> <a href="http://mysite.com/bbpress/" rel="nofollow">http://mysite.com/bbpress/</a> is bbpress install each install has<br /> it's own .htaccess for using permalinks. Wordpress permalinks work fine<br /> but I cannot get bbpress pretty permalinks to work at all. I have tried<br /> different variations of htaccess codes for both files without any<br /> success. It seems to me that the main root htaccess is overriding the<br /> /bbpress/ htaccess.</p> <p>Any suggestions ? </p></blockquote> <p>This was their reply to me.</p> <blockquote><p>"Dear Cliffmaster, (Customer ID: 6XXXXXXXX)</p> <p>Thank you for contacting us. </p> <p>With regards to your query,<br /> we would highly suggest that you install BBpress on a different folder<br /> and not on folder where you have installed a different CMS (WordPress).</p> <p>Please separate the two CMS's by installing them on different folders<br /> under the root directory (/.)</p> <p>If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.</p> <p>--<br /> Sincerely,<br /> Technical Support<br /> 1&#38;1 Internet "</p></blockquote>
