Nope. All went well until I activated it – it came up and said I didn’t have permission to do that, and from that point on – I can not get it to do anything. Back to the same problem. I think I’ll just forget it.
Ok, so it works with another install of wordpress, earlier theme. So I’m totally removing this install, including the db, and starting again.
I’ll get back.
Hi, thanks for getting back.
This is a brand new install. Theme is the standard 2017.
The only plugin is RemoveHowdy It makes no difference if it’s on or off.
I’ve removed bbPress, and reinstalled it again. No difference.
This bit doesn’t happen at all. When I activate it, nothing happens. Nothing in the apache logs. Nothing.
3. Activate bbPress from your Plugins page. (You’ll be greeted with a Welcome page.)
4. Visit ‘Forums > Add New’ and create some forums. (You can always delete these later.)
It’s Apache2. macOS. Runs IPv6 and IPv4 combined. Runs half a dozen other wordpress virtual web sites no problem.
Got me foxed.
further to that. From the apache log. The script runs to start with, but next line, gives a 500 error
