  1. Hello. I am trying to install bbpress under a WP2.0.5 install at http://www.inkriti.net/wp1/forums/ . I have gone through the documentation for integration at http://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/ and looks like things come up fine.

    However, when i add an entry, or click on a tag (e.g. http://www.inkriti.net/wp1/forums/tags/mytag) i see a blank page! not sure why.
    Its the same issue when I try to click on a forum topic - e.g. http://www.inkriti.net/wp1/forums/topic/2?replies=1

    The variables in the config file are
    $bb->domain = 'http://www.inkriti.net';
    $bb->path = '/wp1/forums/';

    $bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_';
    $bb->wp_home = 'http://www.inkriti.net/wp1';
    $bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://www.inkriti.net/wp1';

    This appears to be a wierd issue - i know i am missing somethign simple. IN particular I see that both $bb->wp_siteurl and $bb->wp_home are different from $bb->domain - could this be it?

    Any help will be appreciated.

  2. My bad. resolved it -
    http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks

    I had enabled pretty permalinks but had no .htaccess file.
    in the /forums/ directory I created a .htaccess file and added the line
    Options +MultiViews

    as per instructions and it worked like a charm.
