Following your advice, just discovered it is the aggregator WP-O-Matic plugin that was causing this, for some unknown reason.
Thanks for the guidance to tracking this issue down.
I list the plugins that the forum uses above… have several other plugins in the WP install, but none that should touch login cookies.
I’m at a loss… sure wish BBPress was integrated with WP more; seems like it’s trying to exist in two worlds at once.
This is a new installation, so am just seeing it. Didn’t notice it during development, and really have no idea how to track it down.
Integration steps taken:
– bb-config.php has COOKIEPATH, BB_AUTH_KEY, BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY, BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY, BB_NONCE_KEY (all keys match values in wp-config.php) & require_once($_SERVER . ‘/’ . ‘wp-blog-header.php’);
– WordPress-bbPress syncronization plugin v0.8.0 installed & active in both WP & bbP.
– bbP has a few other plugins but nothing I would think would affect any of the above issues (allow images, auto add favs, bbcode buttons, bbcode lite, new post notification).
Thought I followed all the integration steps to the letter, but I guess something is amiss. Seen anything like this before?
Gautam; how does your solution work for other sites?
Am using the WP header.
As for screenshot, do you really want to see a pic of some bold text saying “blog”? Not sure that would help. The issue is that on any forum page, the WP nav menu highlights the blog menu item instead of the forum menu item. If still yes, let me know and I’ll gladly oblige.
Having this same issue. Have integrated BBpress into WP, or the other way around depending on your definition I guess.
One of the near final remaining issues is this current_page issue. The forum front page correctly shows the current page in the nav menu (forum is item 5 in the nav menu), but any forum links beyond the forum front page, the 2nd page in the nav menu becomes active (# 2 in the nav menu is the site blog).
I guess I need to update something somewhere, but really am at a loss as to what & where.
If you can read this, and can help, please follow up as it seems there is no info on the topic otherwise!
hpguru pretty much nailed it.
Beyond that, you may wish to research basic wordpress site editing; it will help you loads, & there are many wonderful resources for this on the web.
re: “pickle”
suggest removing the bb-config change you made until you get these other things sorted out 
I restarted… the only thing remains is the wonky current_page_item issue. Going to post separately on this, as it’s not exactly bb specific (more .htaccess specific, but I’m a monkey with .htaccess & regex)
In the mean time you can just pass the size via the avatar call…
<?php post_author_avatar_link($size='100'); ?>
Also looking for a solution to this. Have wp & bb integrated beautifully, but the current forum shows up erroneously in my primary nav menu.
Example; a level 2 forum page, highlights the 2nd wp site page in the primary nav menu.
This is basically is my last snafu before publishing with bbpress active! I’m so excited!
Any solutions to this? I’m no .htaccess wizard, and regex freaks me out even more haha.
I have jquery loaded for this page (via wp template integration) yet the Password Strength field is blank here… doesn’t give the disabled msg, and doesn’t show pw strength; not sure why.
Any ideas?
Any chance on updating this info for 1.0.2? Sounds like a nice work-around.
Update: I no longer have this issue, since rebuilding the bbpress installation. Before, something was screwy, between outdated documentation, and just learning bbp.
Hurrah!
I hate to reply to myself, but just throwing this up here in case anyone else had similar issues.
Turns out the blank admin page was due to the wp integration include in the bb-config.php. Commenting that out allowed me to see the admin pages, but of course, now bbp is not integrated into my wp site…
It’s been over a week and i’ve tried everything suggested from every related post here.
Still get a blank page when trying to reach _any_ bbp admin page.
“Page Not Found” title for non-main-page forum page titles.
Looking in bb-config.php again… maybe overlooked sometthing.
Ironically, the plugin did not work for me.
Not sure why… hmmm.
Thanks for this.
I wonder, is there a non-plugin solution? Hate to load up plugins for something that should be automagic.
Seeing the same here.
Using WP 2.8.6 and BBP 1.0!
Feel am getting closer to a publishable bbPress install! Woot!
In addition to the above fact cannot access Admin area (# 1 above), noticed another strange issue, possibly related to #1 above.
- All the page titles in the forum are: “Page Not Found” despite the page loading fine. Guess this is also an .htaccess issue?
Sorry, that’s:
# BEGIN BBPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /forum/
Options +MultiViews
</IfModule>
# END BBPress
So that page is current? It appeared to me that it was a bit out of date with the references to pre-1.0, but hey, glad it works!
So that solves 2) Awesome! Am still seeing 1)
Thinking this is an .htaccess issue. Is there a current link for what should appear in the .htaccess file? Still getting blank page anytime I click on Admin or access an admin page manually (via url).
: Have tried
– Deleting cookies
– Flushing cache
– various long & convoluted .htaccess files found here.
Have installed to a subdir of my root wp installation, dir is named forum.
Here is my current .htaccess for bbpress:
# BEGIN BBPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /forums/
Options +MultiViews
</IfModule>
# END BBPress
Almost there!
