The plugin does not have a valid header. Error message when installing 1.0.2

  1. Ok. I have seen a multitude of folks with successful installations of bbpress but I can't seem to ... I have the zip file of bbpress 1.0.2 and upload it in the add new plugins area. When I click to "activate" it I get this error message "The plugin does not have a valid header."

    so, what do I need to do?

  2. Well, aren't I an idiot. bbpress is not a real plugin to WordPress! I saw that someone had used bbpress on their WordPress site and jumped right on it. I guess I will go back to the ever so slow VastHTML forum plugin.

  3. "I guess I will go back to the ever so slow VastHTML forum plugin"

    I had a look at it and some have reported that VastHTML is broken under WP 2.9.2 while others report malware in the code. What's you experience with it?
