    Well, I thought that was the problem. The forum works now, but I have to turn off pretty urls or permalinks. I really wanted to use that though.

    I JUST FOUND THE PROBLEM CHRIS….

    I forgot to fill out my config.php file, so BBpress used the one that WP is using. They are both using the same database.

    BBpress somehow found the info from WP’s config.php file and used it. I remember BBpress telling me it didn’t find the config.php file, and did I want it to fill one out for me. I clicked “yes” and it took the info from WP’s config.php

    I noticed this in my FTP…..there is a config.php.sample (came with BBpress) and a config.php that BBpress generated.

    I need to start a new database and fill out manually a config.php to go with it. Thanks for all your help Chris and I hope this helps others that may have done the same thing.

    Thanks for trying to help on this Chris. Here is what my htaccess file looks like at the moment:

    Options +MultiViews

    # BEGIN WordPress

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteBase /

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Keep in mind this is in my root directory. (so both WP and BBpress are both using it?)

    Am I supposed to have a seperate htaccess file in the bbpress directory too?

    I got access to the code you sent me. Do I delete the above code and replace it with this code you sent?

    I tried adding: Options +MultiViews

    to my htaccess file and now I get a “Redirect Loop” Firefox says.

    I can get into the dashboard of BBpress, but when I click on “Settings” or any other link in the dashboard, it goes back to that “not found” page from WP.

    I’m actually using a FREE web host that offers everything a paid host would, even has cPanel 11. The ONLY drawback is they offer only 100mb storage space. I don’t want to give them a “plug” because when I asked for more storage, they declined, telling me I will never use 100mb with WP or bbP, I don’t know if that’s true or not. Do look around though for FREE hosts if you want to save a few nickels.

    I have both WP and bbP using the same .htaccess file, in root. So, is this OK:

    # BEGIN WordPress

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteBase /

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Options +MultiViews
