I managed to fix my issue by logging into my DH account and changing the PHP version from 5.2.x -&gt; 4.4.x and then back to 5.2.x. </p> <p>Hope this helps someone :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-18268 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 22:31:46 +0000 corenominal 18268@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I am experiencing the same issues with my bbPress install. It was working fine before and I have not changed anything either. I figure the host (Dreamhost) has changed some configuration or other. I have contacted them and am waiting to hear back. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-18253 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:54:11 +0000 chrishajer 18253@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>That won't do anything at all for your bbPress installation I don't think. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-18252 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:22:14 +0000 peuter 18252@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have both WP and bbP using the same .htaccess file, in root.

I think in future releases they are considering creating it for you.</p> <p><a href="http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/838" rel="nofollow">http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/838</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-17332 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 02:58:51 +0000 i_xiter 17332@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Had the same bug, when I installed bbpress for the first time today.

False works fine, so it's definitely a permalinks issue. Not sure why it was working before, but this is what needs to be done now:</p> <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-17131 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:10:28 +0000 f1f 17131@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>OK I've tried changing the permalink settings and here's what happens:</p> <p>If I set them to 'none' - i.e. forums.php?id=1 the posts work<br /> If I set them to 'name based' - i.e. /forums/first-forum/ the posts do not work</p> <p>Obviously I would rather have name based if possible.

The last thing I changed - which must have been a week ago or longer - was adding the following code into the .htaccess file for Wordpress (not BBPress):</p> <pre><code>define(&#39;COOKIE_DOMAIN&#39;, &#39;&#39;); define(&#39;COOKIEPATH&#39;, &#39;/&#39;);</code></pre> <p>Could that have had an effect? If so it seems odd that it took so long to manifest itself.</p> <p>Thanks for the speedy response by the way :-) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-17121 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:11:39 +0000 chrishajer 17121@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I would say this is a mod_rewrite and permalink issue. If it was working before, then something changed with the host, maybe the .htaccess file in the forum directory, or the parent one. But, all you need to do to get around it, for now, is turn off the permalinks, to false.</p> <p>This URL works fine for a second:<br /> <a href="http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/forum/forum.php?id=2" rel="nofollow">http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/forum/forum.php?id=2</a></p> <p>Then it redirects to a permalink URL:<br /> <a href="http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/forum/forum/motor-racing-discussion" rel="nofollow">http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/forum/forum/motor-racing-discussion</a></p> <p>Maybe you moved the forum recently and did not update the permalink structure? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-errors-on-all-posts-please-help#post-17119 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:05:05 +0000 f1f 17119@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>My BBPress installation has been working fine but suddenly today I can't access the content on any of my posts. All the post titles are listed, but clicking on them gives a 404 error:</p> <p><a href="http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/forum/" rel="nofollow">http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/forum/</a></p> <p>I have no idea what's caused this. It's been over a week since I made any changes to BBPress or the Wordpress installation it's integrated with.</p> <p>I've checked my MySQL database and all the forum data appears to still be in there, it just isn't displaying. Any ideas what's broken? </p>
