@tooltrainer – Closed topic issue is now fixed. Favorites and subscriptions should be viewable in your profile, and subscriptions trigger email messages on new replies. If these aren’t working for you, are normal WP emails working?
@yutt – If you want it out sooner, lend us a hand. 
@darkwolf.it – Signature could possibly have room in bbPress core, since it’s an often requested feature and popular plugin. Will consider it.
Locked – Believe it or not, swearing at developers is not the best way to get things done.

Sorry for being absent the past few days; was away at a team event and did not have much time to reply.
I have the hidden topic/reply issue resolved, but will need to test it before committing.
@tooltrainer – You can “close” forums without making them hidden, which should act the way you need. Regarding marking topics as ‘read,’ bbPress has never kept track of previously read topics, but it could be done either with cookies, or the last_activity of the user. Thinking this might make a better plugin than a core feature, but we’ll see how the next few weeks looks. In the meantime, feel free to create a ticket at trac.bbpress.org and mark it as an ‘enhancement’ and I’ll research it.
Yes, but the structure can be filtered/adjusted as needed by a theme or plugin too.

Correct. 1.0.3 contains several security fixes to the existing 1.0 branch of code, which means no new major features or changes happened and it includes fixes to existing bugs.
1.1 will see a release candidate soon.
There was no announcement for 1.0.3 because when I tagged it, it required a new tag of BackPress and BuddyPress needed to be changed too. With 1.1 and the plugin coming soon, it just never got an official announcement.
On a more personal note, my resources and bandwidth are spread between several projects at the moment, so switching contexts quickly is something I’m adjusting more to. An announcement about 1.0.3 will happen when an RC for 1.1 goes out, which should be in the next few days.

This used to work but is was accidentally broken in a recent commit. Will be working soon.

Hi Jonathan,
The bbPress plugin is still in development, and as such there isn’t a lot of documentation out in the world yet. This is partly due to some architectural changes made mid-way through development, and partly due to more time being spent in the code and not enough time spent on the bbPress.org site. That will eventually shift, and we’ll be sure to put up documentation that bbPress has needed all along.
Regarding Profits Theme, you have a few options. I think the safest will be to make a copy of your Profits Theme that you can modify yourself, without fear of any changes being lost in the event the theme is updated. (You’ll want to edit the style.css and rename your copy, so it doesn’t conflict with the original.) Then, copy the “/bbpress” folder from bbp-twentyten, and drop it in your theme. Next, copy the files prefixed with “page-” and “single-” and drop those into your theme as well. That should fix most of the missing file issues, and get you started so things are ‘functioning.’ The last thing will be for you to start hacking at your CSS to make things look the part.
Most themes should already come with a decent amount of table styling, which is what the bbp-twentyten theme uses (for the sake of being easy and that the layout of data is indeed tabular in nature.) To fill in the CSS blanks, you’l want to experiment with “/bbp-twentyten/css/bbpress.css” and see what you’re missing and what fits.
Cheers, and thanks for the kudos
Pretty cool. Is it skipping over branches?

@Rick Lewis – Can you confirm through your DB, in your wp_users table, that your account with a user_id of 1 is either ‘admin’ or whatever you may have named it?
Then, can you confirm in your wp_usermeta table, that you have something for user_id = 1, meta_key = wp_capabilities. When you do, respond back here with what that is; it should be serialized data.

@lykketrollet – Your opinion matches the consensus, and it may not happen just as a result of time constraints. It seems wasteful to abandon all that time and effort though.
@rickdlewis – You’ve got a lot going on there. Between potential problems with your phpBB migration, porting your phpBB users into the WP user tables, problems with WP integration and user roles/capabilities, and problems with BuddyPress trying to take ownership of your bbPress installation, there are a ton of places where fallout can occur.
First things first, do you have direct access to your database, either through phpMyAdmin, or another SQL interface of some kind?

@Ryan – That’s what I was hoping to hear
@tyskkvinna – It will rely on new individual template files to handle the bbPress specific bits, but otherwise it’s easily compatible with any theme available today.
It’s only code, so anything is possible.
