That url has been mapping to buddypress for a while now… not sure what’s going on, but guessing it’s just random.
There was the exact same error messages reported here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/admin-panel-warning
Here was the solution:
It turned out that couple of topics in the topic tables didnt have topic start time.
It was 0000-00-00 00:00:00. It was probably from converting from phpBB.
I changed to start times and then there is no warnings anymore.
Do you have phpmyadmin? You could check the topic start times in the database maybe…
Absolutely, you can edit your htaccess file to automatically rewrite the URLs using regular expressions:

The answer to the red X question should already be in the comments on that page… just browse through the comments?
That would greatly simplify the work involved!
Is it critical that a user have their old phpbb posts tied to their new WordPress/bbPress identity? Is it ok if their old posts are tied to their old username?
How much overlap between your userbase is there… how many of the 115 WordPress users also have phpBB accounts?
Also – if “Mister X” has two accounts (one on each system)… is it critical that the comments in WordPress and in bbPress be merged into the same account? Or would you be ok with having them be separate accounts…
The latest WordPress is definitely the most secure, b/c Automattic has not released security patches for earlier versions. But bbPress 1.0 is not clearly more secure than 0.9 – in fact, because bbPress 1.0 uses BackPress, it’s possibly less secure. Plus 0.9 has been stable for a long time, while 1.0 is new and still has a fair number of bugs.
Integration is easiest when you share a user table. It’s possible to integrate bbPress with other software (WordPress, or even something else) without sharing a user table but it’s not easy and there are no publicly released plugins which allow it.
How many users do you have on your WordPress install?
Ah the red X… the solution to that is mentioned in the comments of the plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/
The Occupation field should have disappeared, and two new fields appeared… is that the case for you?
No, but I wouldn’t recommend using more recent builds of bbPress… since a lot of plugins aren’t supported in 1.0 yet. Unless of course, you don’t plan on using many plugins… then ymmv.
You can get user integration (complete with cookie support) between just about any two versions of bbPress and WordPress. Start a new thread with your questions around that, and we can all chip in and advise!
gerikg –
If you want to write a post asking for plugin developers to bid on a project, you can do so here… but the forum policy is to just post your project description and your email and then a moderator will close the post:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-developers-wanted#post-39007
If you want to discuss the project in general, you can always do so… just a heads up on the forum policy around soliciting bids on a project. 
Did you read all 16 pages of comments on the plugin page? There are some pretty helpful clues there!
Try making this line in the settings specific to your site… one user set theirs to this:
$bb_attachments=”/var/web/web1/user/web1_stroe/bb-attachments/”;
Ask your webhost what the exact path is to your HTML directory?
adamkayce – It’s absolutely possible. I’ve done it a few times now.
These links are hugely helpful:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-of-established-wp-and-bbpress-installations
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/successful-reverse-integration-steps
The hardest part of the integration is how to handle “name collisions”… i.e. what do you do when two users share the same usernames in bbPress (from phpbb3) and WordPress. That’s discussed nicely in the above links.
Good luck!
Yah sorry for any confusion – create a new folder called “bb-attachments” and put it in the HTML folder… and chmod it to 777.
I’d have to see your settings…
bb-attachments requires some careful admin of the settings… do you have a tech savvy friend nearby that can help out?
If you’re looking for a point and click plugin that does this, it doesn’t exist AFAIK. You’d to commission someone to program it…
You could have the browser drop a cookie and then track pageviews through that… then when the user hits a pre-set number of pageviews, a registration page could appear.
Ashfame – This is a _ck_ plugin that lets you one-click sub to a thread:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/subscribe-to-topic/
I use it on several sites, and it’s excellent.
Create a “bb-attachments” folder in in the HTML directory… then change the permissions on that folder to 777.
No the directory shouldn’t be under /my-plugins/… it should be higher in your directory structure.
You know the folder that your bb-config.php file is in? You should put /bb-attachments/ in the folder *above* that one.
Check out the comments on the plugin… it’s a bit tricky to configure since you have to make sure to create the upload directory about your webroot (for security reasons):
# make a directory /bb-attachments/ ABOVE your webroot ie./home/username/bb-attachments/
# chmod 777 the above /bb-attachments/ directory
It’s definitely worth it though – the security help keeps your site safe.
In my experience, this is the best plugin for uploading images to your forum:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/
This plugin should send an email to the admin every time someone posts to the forum:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/moderator-new-post-notification/
I don’t know if it’s different from Olaf’s previous plugin he linked to above… definitely try out one of the plugins!
