   I have read the other threads on this forum, tried the suggestions there, and no matter what I do I can't seem to get permalinks working for bbPress.

   At first I had wordpress configured to run in the root of my site (while physically being in /wordpress/) and thought that might be messing up bbpress, which is in a subfolder, so I disabled that feature of wordpress and configured it to run from the same folder where it is installed.

   Even after doing this, I haven't been able to get permalinks to work. I have tried both option +multiviews and the output from the rewrite php file, both without success. The error I get is "No input file specified." I am saving the .htaccess file in the root of my forums folder. My forum is installed at http://www.u77.cc/forums/ and I am hosted with goDaddy. Permalinks are working with my wordpress and gallery2 installs.

   Thanks,

   I noticed that bbpress doesn't make use of conditions while wordpress and gallery2 do. I'm kind of frustrated so I'm just going to disable permalinks for now, but I believe that if wordpress and gallery2 work then bbpress should be able to work too. I haven't figured out how, though; hopefully one of you can since this is a frustrating problem.

   Did you follow the instructions to the letter? I know most people don't have the correct permissions on their .htaccess file in the bbPress folder or don't just put the 1 single line of code in for problems.

   My .htaccess located in /forums/ had a permission of 644.

   I didn't delete the htaccess, just disabled permalink.. so I still have the contents of the file (I pulled it directly from bbpress rewrite php file):

   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /forums/
   RewriteRule ^forum/(.+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /forums/forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^forum/(.+)/?$ /forums/forum.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^topic/(.+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /forums/topic.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^topic/(.+)/?$ /forums/topic.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^tags/(.+)/page/([0-9]+)$ /forums/tags.php?tag=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^tags/(.+)/?$ /forums/tags.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^tags/?$ /forums/tags.php [L,QSA]

   I could never get it to work myself (which 2 hosts have done to me) without just having the following in the .htaccess file:

   Options +MultiViews

   That doesn't work for you?

   Did you ever get this to work, I am having the same issue, and GoDaddy is my host as well.
