It is a directory that you create to put plugin files into (including this patch). Since bbPress doesn’t come with any plugins, it is not created by default. All you need to do is create the /my-plugins/ directory off the root and put this patch plugin into it and it automatically will work. If you want to use any of the plugins, they will be thrown into that directory as well.

From the looks of things it looks like it. Not sure if it will be 1.0 or 1.5, but it is something worked on. If nothing else, it might become a plugin if it doesn’t make the core. No ATA on when 1.0 is coming out though as it has way more things going on than expected.
Trent
If it is a headers already sent, I would imagine there must be a space at the end of your file after the ?> portion of config.php or the included files in your config.php.
Trent
As well, if that doesn’t work for you, you can change the akismet to false in your config.php seems to be another workaround.
Trent
This ‘fix’ seems to work for most users to not have Akismet nuke each post as spam. There will be a better solution in 1.0, so sorry about this!

The best thing to do is going through the permalinks in the documentation. Most can use +multiviews, but there is a workaround in this:

I am afraid not. It would require you manually creating a forum for each site. If you wanted them all to have different sites, it would require a bbPress install for each and every user with different databases. If someone hacks the code to a MU version of bbPress maybe, but right now, not that I know of.

If you are using Windows, try going to the link I gave you above for programs and find Tourtoise. It is a graphical program and has a user manual on access a SVN through your file explorer. That would be my main suggestion as it seemed to be the easiest for me. Still trying to find a graphical MAC one though…..
Trent
Is he using a custom member type that is causing this? I used IE6 to view your site and couldn’t replicate this. Do you have a specific link?
Trent
If the forums are in a directory inside WPMU, you will have to see if there is a thread over in the WPMU forums about excluding certain names from being a signup name. That will be the only solution short of moving it outside to a subdomain or something like that.
Trent
What have you done? You have to give details of what you did because I (maybe others) cannot translate what you did into a fix without you telling us what exactly you have done…..
Trent
Good to know…….so that is the URL issue and not the localhost issue even though you are installed on a localhost. Man, this thread is confusing sometimes! 
Trent
I let him know about the problems people are having from this thread and he mentioned the ‘localhost’ thing and the ‘other slash’ problems should be fixed in the next release, but may be re-worked. I haven’t tested the localhost install yet, but I think the ‘slash for stylesheet’ thing is fixed.
Trent
What do you mean? The second link from so10? I don’t know why it didn’t work for you. Search around the forums as there are people have have gotten the integration with a wordpress theme done.
As I stated above, I use the first link and built a theme from scratch. In my opinion, there is no real ‘easy’ way to build a theme by including a file from WP that I have found, but I will stand correctly if someone can explain to me now. Good luck!
Trent
Many people including myself have implemented the themes of bbPress and WordPress by actually making a theme in bbPress that looks like WordPress. There is information creating theme available here. As well, doing what you wanted has been tried and documented on these forums before, so I would suggest a quick search. I know so10 has a patch on his site at:
http://www.adityanaik.com/blog/bbpress-and-wordpress-integration/
Hope that helps!
Trent
It looks like 1.0 may have this implemented into the core.
Trent
If you guys see these….contact me so I can edit them out or delete them……missed that one until now….darn it!
Trent
This is a good plugin! The options currently have to be edited in the plugin code itself, but it also allows you to pick which fields are required at login as well. In an effort to slow spammers, I added a few fields and made all of them except 1 required! Seems to have worked so far…..
Trent
Sorry to hear that Spencer. I guess you found a way to patch it for now. mdawaffe will be releasing a ‘fix up’ release pretty soon that hopefully will address most (if not all) issues people are having!!
Thanks,
Trent
Not much help here on this one, but unless someone points it out right away here for you, try checking out some of the plugins that have been written that have to do with post author or profiles. I am sure Ardentfrost might have something in his memberlist or private message plugins that does this. As well, you can check out /bb-includes/template-functions.php for a list of functions that can be called. It has to be in there somewhere!
Trent
I changed the status to 1.0 for that ticket. It is a big issue, but most issues are put to the nearest version that is possible. It just hadn’t been put to 1.0 yet because it was behind quite a few tickets! It is changed now and hopefully will be in there and not pushed back to 1.5!
Cheers,
Trent
He added the tag to the thread. It is there.
Trent
It would seem that it didn’t work from the errors because your database user doesn’t have the proper permissions to create tables. You will need to update the permissions of the database user and then run the script again! Once the permissions are set right, it will install easy for you!
Trent
This thread will help out I think:

If not, let me know as then I am assuming you have this installed on a localhost ?
