    Hello Pascal,

    I have the same issue. My site is very active so a topic gets to hundreds of replies within days. That makes for a very long page without pagination. Threading makes it a little easier to keep on top of for readers, as discussion that is meant to be together, sticks together.

    Would developers consider fixing it so pagination works with threaded topics in the next release?

    I’ve added:

    require_once(‘path/to/wp-blog-header.php’);

    to my bb-config file and the forums are pulling now. This one line made all the difference. At least the page is pulling, but now all formatting is lost and forum links on the page are broken

    Chris, thanks a lot. Now the forum page pulls and no longer gives an error message, but all my formatting and custom layout is gone. And the links to forums don’t work. It takes me to the bbpress default telling me that forum is not found.

    I’ve tried that, but it moved to the next dynamic element and displays an error from there. I deleted that line and again the same – shows an error rom where next dynamic element is. Any chance I can make that head dynamic data?

    Yes, I had the layout of forums customized before upgrade to WP2.5 becasue defaul is very user not friendly. I also had title tag customized because default values are not SEO friendly. Obviously, this clashes with upgraded version causing my forums page to not work. This is what HEAD of my header.php looks like

    <head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />

    <title>
    <?php if (is_front()) { ?> Forums and Forum Topic on Bullshit Blog <?php }
    elseif (is_forum()) { echo (get_forum_name() . " on Bullshit Blog Forums"); }
    elseif (is_topic()) { echo (get_topic_title() . " Forum Thread on Bullshit Blog"); }
    else {
    ?>

    <?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> &raquo; Blog Archive <?php } ?> &raquo; <?php bb_title() ?>

    <?php } //else ?>
    </title>
    <meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> <!-- leave this for stats -->

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bb_stylesheet_uri(); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />

    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
    <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />

    <style type="text/css" media="screen">

    <?php
    // Checks to see whether it needs a sidebar or not
    if ( !$withcomments && !is_single() ) {
    ?>
    #page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbg-<?php bloginfo('text_direction'); ?>.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }
    <?php } else { // No sidebar ?>
    #page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbgwide.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }
    <?php } ?>

    </style>

    <?php wp_head(); ?>

    <?php if ( is_topic() && bb_is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var lastMod = <?php topic_time( 'timestamp' ); ?>;
    var page = <?php global $page; echo $page; ?>;
    var currentUserId = <?php bb_current_user_info( 'id' ); ?>;
    var topicId = <?php topic_id(); ?>;
    var uriBase = '<?php bb_option('uri'); ?>';
    var tagLinkBase = '<?php bb_tag_link_base(); ?>';
    var favoritesLink = '<?php favorites_link(); ?>';
    var isFav = <?php if ( false === $is_fav = is_user_favorite( bb_get_current_user_info( 'id' ) ) ) echo "'no'"; else echo $is_fav; ?>;
    </script>
    <?php bb_enqueue_script('topic'); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>

    </head>

    There’s obviously a lot of dynamic stuff in the head of my theme to make it mor SEO friendly. Is there a way to retain it and have it properly pull required data again?

    Thanks for your help guys, I really appreciate that :)

    Blog – this is the blog

    Forums – this is where forums are

    Entire installation went through smoothly and it looked like it’ll be a breeze, but front end of forums give this error message. Back end is accessible from admin panel without problems.

    Thanks for your help :)

    EDIT: Opps, had to edit my post cause BBCode didn’t go through :S
