There won’t be anything in your WordPress dashboard about bbPress. What happens when you try to access the forum URL? (and what is the forum URL?)
The permissions of the bb-templates folder should be 0755. Same for the folder the theme is in as well. Files in the theme folder should be 0644. Is all that true?
Is this a plugin for bbPress, or how are you getting the functionality?
There is no official download that I know of, but several people have created something like it:
https://bbpress.org/forums/tags/bborg
John, to have that properly addressed, you should probably open a ticket at http://trac.bbpress.org
You could also create a phpinfo file and access it from your browser:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Save that in a file called info.php (or whatever you want) and then access it through your browser:
http://www.example.com/info.php
In there you will have your PHP version and also if compression is enabled.

I think if you looked at how the profile page does it (recent replies and topics started) you should be able to figure out how to use that on this page.
Still no logs to see what’s happening?
Everyone defines basic in a different way. That’s the problem with adding more things into the core by default. I agree that finding plugins that work has been a problem, but that’s less of a problem with the fact that bbPress is minimal and more with a problem of the way the project has been run, and the amount of resources it’s gotten.
That would be “the nuclear option” I think!
The problem is using the very latest version of PHP. A slightly older version won’t show those warnings. Or turning off the display of warnings will also prevent this problem.
Not sure in what version of PHP they deprecated this…
For example, try this directory with and without the slash:
http://authorstock.com/media
http://authorstock.com/media/
Same sort of redirect happens. Looks like it’s a configuration issue with the server.
Checked from command line on Linux and it redirects if you don’t use the slash:
[~]$ curl -I http://authorstock.com/forum
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently

Can you access any other directories and get the index file instead of a redirect? Is there a way to ensure that index.php is the index file for the directory?
1. In the IIS Manager, double-click Default Document.
2. Click Add, then enter index.php and click OK.
It’s broken for me, using Firefox 3.5.6 on Windows XP. clicking without the slash gets me http://authorstock.com/authorstock.com/forum/
It would be nice to know what it is about the plugin that makes it not work with 1.0. Maybe it would work, and the problem is something else.
What would be the best practice for looking at a plugin that was written for 0.9 to see if it would work with 1.0? Make sure all the functions in use are still present from one version to the next?
I’m just talking in general, not about this plugin specifically. What sort of environment would you need, to debug? A PHP environment with errors logged or shown?
rickxxx’s reply was deleted. This is not a topic for feature requests, it’s a place to offer to help with bbPress.
Are the icons actually present here and accessible?
http://www.flykiwi.net/forum/my-plugins/bb-attachments/icons/img.gif
I get a 403 forbidden error trying to access that.
Sounds like it cannot write the file. Maybe permissions, maybe a path problem. Access to logs would be nice 
Do you have access to error logs at all? Do you know if it’s being stored, just somewhere else, or not able to write, or not able to retrieve?
It might have something to do with the path and forward or backslashes, since it is Windows.
Did you try the debug stuff listed at ashfame’s page? specifically ?bb_attachments_debug to find the path?
Here is something recent about problems with the path and plugins on Windows servers:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/error-activation-plugin#post-62287
and the next post for the resolution.
Can you post a screenshot of what’s working and what’s not?
>Wordpress became popular, and maintains its popularity, because it provides features users want.
I agree. As plugins, in most cases.
And for the record, I don’t want bbPress to stick with 0.9. I think some people want that because 0.9:
- has more plugins that work with it
- uses less resources
I just want bbPress to live up to the promises it makes:
https://bbpress.org/about/features/
https://bbpress.org/about/
https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/
That’s all.
