Quick Google turned up this:
“Fatal error: Trying to clone an uncloneable object of class mysqli – If this error occurs you must turn off the zend.ze1_compatibility_mode setting in your PHP configuration.”
ini_set('zend.ze1_compatibility_mode', 0);
I wonder why the ‘ character is fine here, but not on your forum? Definitely a good one 
Please post the actual error message you’re receiving. I made a ‘normal’ post (no special characters) and it went through fine.
I was able to log in, post, and log out. I did not have any trouble.
That bb_online table is created by the Simple Onlinelist, IIRC, and that error happens one time, then goes away, since the table is created the first time you load the page with the call to the function. So, it probably fixed itself.

For future reference, the database password was wrong in the config.php.
In your theme’s style.css (or the default theme style.css) you want to find this at around line 255:
.num, #forumlist small {
font: 11px Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
text-align: center;
}
That controls the styling of <td class=”num”>.
I also recommend you use the Firefox web browser with the Web Developer add-on by Chris Pederick for finding things like this.
Hard to tell from that cut n paste since the formatting is all messed up. I don’t think it’s a syntax error anyway, it’s just a database connection issue. One of the connection details is not accurate.
Is the BBDB_USER quoted in the config.php file (it is not in the edited version here)?
OK – everything appears to be in the correct location now. I think there is just a simple problem with the config.php database details now. Can you verify that these 4 are absolutely accurate in your config.php?
define('BBDB_NAME', 'xxxxxxxx');
define('BBDB_USER', 'xxxxxxxxx');
define('BBDB_PASSWORD', 'xxxxxxxx');
define('BBDB_HOST', 'xxxxxxxx');
The host might not be localhost. Mine is not. And you don’t have a syntax error in the file (like a missing or extra quote) but something like one of those values is inaccurate. Posting it here in edited form won’t help, you have to verify that the database name, user, password and host are all accurate. You’re the only one who can do that. Once you have that, we need to get back to the original problem.

So, my guess is that extra directory “forums” is causing trouble, and that you have the config.php in that directory instead of the proper bbpress directory.
You can eliminate that forums directory if you want, unless you’re planning on running multiple forum software. If you eliminate that forum directory, make sure you update the config.php so the paths there match your webserver paths.
The big problem I think is that your config.php is in the forums folder instead of the bbpress folder where it belongs.
And I don’t think it has anything to do with phpMyAdmin (I thought it did since that’s when you said you couldn’t log in, after the talk of phpMyAdmin – maybe you never installed that?)
regarding your setup
1. did you install phpMyAdmin yourself, or is it part of a control panel?
2. did you edit any config files by hand?
3. what do your installation directories look like (i.e. where did you install phpMyAdmin in relation to the other directories you have for your WP and bbPress installations?)
is it something like
/home/llab/public_html/wordpress/
/home/llab/public_html/wordpress/forums/bbpress/
(why the extra directory here ^?)
/home/llab/public_html/phpMyAdmin/
Is your config file for bbpress in the forums directory or the bbpress directory? (IMPORTANT)
I think the forums directory is extra, and maybe that’s causing problems?
Sounds like you need to set the database details in the config for phpMyAdmin. Can you give more details about what you setup?
Depending on your host, there might be a control panel of some sort. In there, you want to find a tool called phpMyAdmin. If that’s there, you’re in good shape. You can also access the database from the command line, if you have ssh access, or if you just have FTP access, you can still install phpMyAdmin in your own account. You need some way to access the database, at least to see if the users are being created.
And, the previous one, 20 seconds
The previous reply took 30 seconds. I did not get a 408 timeout.
It’s actually worse today. I got a 408 TIMEOUT error when posting a reply to another thread (and maybe in on this one too… we’ll see.) The reply was there, but I saw an error screen rather than my reply. I knew not to double post though. So, it’s worse, not better, today.
I registered, and could not log in with my username and password. Also, I never received a welcome email. So, something is screwy, for sure. Can you look in the database and be sure the users were added? Are you integrated with your WordPress install?
And now the previous one took only 0 seconds. Weird.
EXCEPT for that post where I said “yep” – THAT one took 44 seconds. Oh well, someone knows about it…
Yep: 1 second. Much better.
Hey, I made the top 100 and I am so embarrassed: my design is basically stock. http://riversideinfo.org/forum/
The previous post took 9 seconds to appear. ( I got throttled so I had to wait to post this. )
Why is this marked as resolved?
Do you have access to the database at all, through your host’s control panel or something? If you have access to the raw database somehow, you should be able to recover just fine.
In your admin panel, under the Content tab, is there something for Bozos (I can’t remember since I turned off the bozo thing on my forum, it was a big PITA)? Mine admin panel under content shows topics, posts and forums, but I thought there used to be one for bozo.
If so, look there. If not, in the first page of the admin panel, is there a “recently moderated” section on the right sidebar? Are the posts there?
I know the users are NOT bozos, but I still suspect they are marked as bozos, so the post shows when they look at it when they’re logged in, but no other users will be able to see their post. To them, it looks normal, to everyone else, they’re invisible.
Here is something I posted earlier this year about bozos:

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
