matchfox: did you already try this?

If your site works without permalinks, it’s most definitely an issue with the rewrite rules.
In reply to: MU wordpress 2.6.1 + bbpress 0.9.0.2WordPress 2.6.* is not compatible with bbPress 0.9.0.2. The alpha bbPress release is cookie-compatible with WordPress 2.6.* and the 1.0 release will be compatible as well.
The solution is to use compatible versions of the software.

In reply to: Racing News DigestI noticed a couple things.
- On the home page of the blog, the suckerfish nav drops down behind the text that begins “Visit our RACE WEEK CENTRAL to get this weeks complete Ryan Newman coverage.”
- On the forum home page, the suckerfish nav drops down behind some of the text. For example, hover over Drivers Pages” and try to go down the list vertically. When you get to Jeff Burton, the menu goes away because the browser grabs the link to Forum FAQ.
- On the forum search results page, the suckerfish drops down behind the select box where you select the forum to search (starts at Any).
- On the forum home page, I noticed a typo in “Why resgister? Look Here!!”
- When hovering over a tag, the URL points to the tag URL, but other tags get a yellow background color. Is that intentional?
- In the signature for Nascar Fanatic, the yellow font for “Racing News Digest” has far too little contrast against the grey. Also, for that signature, the social networks icons didn’t work.
Looks like you have the start of a good community there. Just needs a little tune-up.
In reply to: Regarding Trunk Releases and InstallationVery good. I created my config by hand, and always have since I first started using bbPress. Not sure why that didn’t work for you the first time around.
In reply to: WordPress + bbPress Integration 101That won’t work for cookie and user integration.
In reply to: Show Forum, But Disallow AccessSo, all forums will be listed on the front page. Some of those forums will allow full access, but others (the paid forums) will give a message like “if you give me some money, I will let you in”, right?
Just trying to get an idea of what you’re trying to do, before thinking about how to do it.
In reply to: Site url changed and locked out of admin areaThanks for all the supporting info, too.
In reply to: Site url changed and locked out of admin areaIf you have a tool like phpMyAdmin, I think you should be able to log in there and change the site URL.
You used to be able to define the site URL in the bb-config.php as well. This is what used to be in that file:
// The full URL of your bbPress install
$bb->uri = 'http://www.truediy.com/';Maybe if you put that second line in your bb-config.php maybe that will override the database settings? (Actually, I’m fairly certain that will work. Then you can update the settings in the admin.)
In reply to: Regarding Trunk Releases and InstallationIt’s hard to tell if there’s an error in an edited bb-config.php. I have seen where the secret keys are not properly escaped, and that creates a PHP problem. As you’ve posted it (edited) it works fine.
I just did an svn checkout of r1736 and that included backpress r153, which is what’s available at the URL you posted.
Mine installed cleanly. I did not integrate with WordPress. You can see a one minute video of the installation here:
http://www.chrishajer.com/bbpress/1736/
I suspect a problem with the secret keys in the bb-config.php. Or some other syntax problem with the bb-config.php. If you have a command line with php you can run
php -l bb-config.phpto check that file for syntax errors. That’s “php dash el”, l for Lint.
In reply to: Show Forum, But Disallow AccessYou want them to be able to read, but not post?
Do you have access to server logs? If you’re getting a blank screen, it’s probably a 500 Internal Server Error. Maybe there’s a problem with one of your WordPress templates.
In reply to: Regarding Trunk Releases and InstallationIf it’s blanking out, you probably have a syntax problem with your bb-config.php. The installer is supposed to be working still with trunk. What release did you grab, just to be sure this is true?
Do you have access to error logs? You probably have a 500 Internal Server Error being logged.
So, you can access the forum and the blog? Is everything back to normal?
It’s not possible now, I don’t think. I don’t know if it will be possible in the future.
What does your directory structure look like? Where did you put bbPress, and where is WordPress? Does it look like this:
/var/www/htdocs/wordpress/wp-config.php
/var/www/htdocs/wordpress/bbpress/bb-config.php
Did you modify the wp-config.php file at all? Do you have access to error logs? A blank screen is likely a 500 Internal Server Error.
If you can’t see the sites, you have bigger problems than just integrated logins. You should be able to view the WordPress site and the bbPress forum without logging in.
In reply to: Get Current Forum ID?This is pretty similar, I think:

In reply to: Is bbpress SEO friendly???Yes, it’s pretty friendly, especially with Permalinks on. Are there specific concerns you’re trying to address?
There are also a couple SEO plugins for bbPress floating around if you’d like to make it even better.

In reply to: Modify existing permalink?@sambauers – but we’re used to WordPress where they’re pretty easy to change in the admin.
In reply to: Password RecoveryThose two versions are not compatible for integration. I still don’t know what your problem is, but maybe that’s part of it.
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101
In reply to: Password RecoveryI went to your forum but I can’t read Russian to know what exactly is going wrong. I’ve never seen the problem.
What version bbPress did you install, and is it integrated with WordPress (and if so, what version there)?
In reply to: What database to use?Use the existing database, but be sure the table prefixes are different. By default WordPress uses wp_ and bbPress uses bb_ – those are safe. When you get into the installation, you will see a place where it asks what the WordPress table prefix is.
In reply to: If BBpress had SEO plugin Like WOrdPress?This is the only SEO related plugin I know of for bbPress. Not sure if it works with the latest release, but it could be a start.
In reply to: Using bbpress forum content within a wordpress pageThere’s no easy way to embed bbPress into a WordPress page, I don’t think. There are forum plugins for WordPress that work inside a WordPress page, but I have no experience with them.

(sorry, that search is pathetic but that’s where I’d start)
In reply to: Modify existing permalink?I thought maybe giving the thread a new topic would result in an updated slug, but it does not (slug does not change). I don’t see an option to change it anywhere, other than just modifying the bb_topic table directly.
In reply to: Count Bug foundIf this is true and you don’t agree with the way it works, you should report the bug at trac.bbpress.org. Be sure to include the version number you’re using.
