   I'm trying to setup bbpress as a seperate install from my wp install, but I am sharing the same database. here is the url

   http://portfoliosfriend.com/jobs

   if you click on any forum or post, it just goes to an error 404 page. I'm not sure what happened in the DB that caused this, or if I need to set something else up. any help would be great! thanks.

   Looks like you have not set up permalinks. Please try "none" in the permalinks setting, and see if the forum works. Then, if it does, go ahead and configure your .htaccess to allow permalinks.

   Is bbPress ever going to get as sophisticated and easy to use as WordPress?
