I’ve just installed bbPress and depply integrated with WordPress. All was well until I renamed the file folder to “forums” from “bbPress”. Everything is working perfectly except I cannot edit user profiles! They can register and all else seems to work on the site and the Admin, just no editing the user profile pages (either from the forum or from admin).

When I attempt to edit user profile it switched to my WordPress and gives me a “Error 404: Page Not Found”.

Here is a sample URL: “http://jernigan.co/forums/profile/admin”

By the way, I’m running Linux/4GH, PHP 5.x, MySQL on godaddy.com. I have the latest versions of WordPress (3.1) and bbPress(1.0.3) installed.

Good now – all you have to do is turn off permalinks after you move a directory.

If you want the Permalinks options to work, you have to change the “options-permalinks.php” file. Mine initially looked like this:

**********

$permalink_options = array(

‘mod_rewrite’ => array(

‘title’ => __( ‘Permalink type’ ),

‘type’ => ‘radio’,

‘options’ => array(

’0′ => sprintf( __( ‘<span>None</span> %s‘ ), bb_get_uri( ‘forums.php’, array( ‘id’ => 1 ), BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT ) ),

’1′ => sprintf( __( ‘<span>Numeric</span> %s‘ ), bb_get_uri( ‘forums/1′, null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT ) ),

‘slugs’ => sprintf( __( ‘<span>Name based</span> %s‘ ), bb_get_uri( ‘/forums/first-forum’, null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT ) )

)

)

);

**********

And so I changed it to this:

**********

$permalink_options = array(

‘mod_rewrite’ => array(

‘title’ => __( ‘Permalink type’ ),

‘type’ => ‘radio’,

‘options’ => array(

’0′ => sprintf( __( ‘<span>None</span> %s‘ ), bb_get_uri( ‘forums.php’, array( ‘id’ => 1 ), BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT ) ),

’1′ => sprintf( __( ‘<span>Numeric</span> %s‘ ), bb_get_uri( ‘/1′, null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT ) ),

‘slugs’ => sprintf( __( ‘<span>Name based</span> %s‘ ), bb_get_uri( ‘/first-forum’, null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT ) )

)

)

);

I don’t understand what you did. When you change the folder name, the pretty permalinks gets confused. All you have to do is go into permalinks settings and save without making any changes. This works the same way in WordPress.

All I know is that it wouldn’t work before and now it works perfectly.
