I am having trouble with running bbPress 2.2.4 and BuddyPress 1.6.4 on the Custom Community 1.14 theme with WordPress 3.5.1 . I have disabled all other plugins and rebuilt permalinks to different structures, to no avail.
The site is http://www.surprisecommunity.com
When my registered users click “Submit” to enter a topic or a reply, an error page results. It seems that there is some conflict in the slug/permalink configuration. The new topic/reply will post but not before the user is shown a page like this:

Additionally, a 302 Found
error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Any ideas about what is going on??

HTTP 302 Errors are to do with mod_rewrite and redirects, take a look at any .htaccess rules you have and/or modifications to these rules that your theme is making.

I’m now having this same problem. I’ve been all over the site so far, and all I’ve really found is that I need to fix my mod_rewrites or reset my permalinks. To restate my problem, when I test a post on my forum, it loads a page similar to what ryandoz posted. If I refresh/reload the page, the proper page comes up.

I’m working with a pretty vanilla install here, until this happened, I hadn’t even changed the permalinks from the default install (done by SimpleScripts). I don’t know enough about apache to know how to properly fix my .htaccess file to rewrite the urls, and anyway, I would prefer if I could set it up in WordPress.

So, what’s the deal with the rewriting? What exactly is actually going on? bbPress is asking for a url that isn’t rewritten, then the server tells the client the page was moved? Is that not something that bbPress can handle? I really have to put extra Rewrite rules in my .htaccess if I want to have a vanilla install of WordPress use a vanilla install of the bbPress plugin?
