I am not sure of the actual path, but I would imagine that it will be in webspace formatting with forward slashes off localhost or whatever and off the actual server (web server that is) host. Better wait for someone else who has installed on a localhost to answer I guess, but I would imagine that path is not right in your config.php

I don’t know if I fully understand. You have your own template in /my-templates/kakumei2/ and that is all you should have to do. If that is your ‘bug free’ version of default theme, then you don’t have to copy over the default theme to /my-templates/ as it is the constant one that changes (hopefully bug free) into /bb-templates/kakumei/ and you shouldn’t worry about that one. Just the templates that you work on or change in your /my-templates/ directory.
Trent
As long as you have your plugins in /my-plugins/ and your template folders in /my-templates/ then you should be able to go and just overwrite the files from the download into your bbPress folder. The download files don’t have the things you need to protect:
.htaccess
config.php
/my-plugins/
/my-templates/
As long as all your changed files are in the folders, you can go ahead and upload!
Trent
Not sure if it will make a difference, but maybe upgrade to 0.8.1 and see if that helps this situation out.
Trent
I am not sure how it could be done because they entries themselves for the profile might not be stored in the same location and the ‘update profile’ would need to altered to update more than one field in the database. Good question. Anyone?
Trent
What plugins do you have installed? If you quickly rename your /my-plugins/ directory to something else and test post, does it do the same thing? That way we can find out if it is plugins and not the system iteself. If we can issolate it, we might be a solution faster!
Trent
It is mod_rewrite in the config.php that chrishajer is referring to. As well, could you post without CAPS on as that is shouting and can be considered rude as well!
Thanks,

The TRAC version of bbPress has a fix in it that has it so Akismet doesn’t filter trusted users. The ticket is here. If you don’t feel comfortable upgrading at least the 2 files in question to the TRAC version, all you can do until this fix gets put in a release is set Akismet as false in config.php. I am not 100% if you can just take:
/bb-includes/akismet.php
/bb-includes/functions.php
Those 2 files out of changeset 722 and apply them and have this fixed, but I would backup those 2 files you have already and then try it out! If you are adventurous that is!
Trent
There has yet to be a user registration approval plugin and hopefully there is one soon! In the meantime, some users have been using the admin create user plugin so that they can turn off registration and only have the admin create users through the admin. This is the only thing even close right now!
Trent
Glad to hear you got it working!
Cheers,
Trent
It requires you to create a file called .htaccess and place it in your bbpress root folder. Most works with just the following in it:
Options +MultiViews
Once you have that in your .htaccess your can turn mod_rewrite on in the config.php and see if it works. If not, try taking that line out of the .htaccess and put whatever you have spit out of this file:
http://chezmauricekusadasi.com/yeni/forum/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php
Then turn that with mod_rewrite on. If that doesn’t work, then it most likely isn’t going to I am afraid and you will have to turn the fancy URL’s off again!
Trent
Good to hear you found it!
Trent
Sorry, I should have done this sooner for you (just been crazy busy!). Create a file called whatever you want, but I recommend path-to-url.php and put the following in it and upload it to /my-plugins/ directory:
<?php
function fix_bb_path_to_url( $url ) {
$url = str_replace(array('//', '\\'), array('/', '\'), $url);
return preg_replace( '|
([^/])|', '/$1', $url );
}
add_filter( 'bb_path_to_url', 'fix_bb_path_to_url', 1, -1 );
?>
That might work with the stylesheet issue. Let me know

What are you trying to install bbPress on? php and mySQL on a unix, windows, mac, etc? Here is a common issue with installing on a MAC and is the database a localhost installation? If you could give us a bit more we should be able to work towards a solution for you! Check to make sure you have all the correct information in your config.php because it isn’t able to see the database that you are putting in it.
Trent
Maybe one of the plugin creators will make this a reality for you! I am sure it would be a good idea!
Trent
I understand your frustration on this issue flatworm, but as ChrisHajer has already told you, there has been some issue with installating bbPress on localhost. Go through the tickets that were linked above so you can get a better idea of the issues and maybe try this. Create a plugin called url-fix.php and put in the information from the link from this post:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/730?replies=9#post-4797

Actually, if you test this new version of ardentfrost’s plugin and delete a bozo user, you will know if it didn’t work because when you go the ADMIN => USERS => BOZO page and get an error, it didn’t work. If it shows up, it did work as that was the problem with the last version of the plugin and the new upgrade of bbPress.
Trent
I have an install where the “1” is shown as well and mdawaffe knows about it and is working on it!
Trent
This fix is what chrishajer is referencing. The ticket is gone, but the fix is still there:
https://trac.bbpress.org/attachment/ticket/575/path-to-url.2.php
Trent
Some people like it because it gives your URL’s like:
/forums/topic/787
Versus URL’s with permalinks off:
/forums/topic.php?id=787
It is a matter of opinion, but I guess might make it a little pretty!
Trent
Short of actually going through the database and deleting the topics using phpmyadmin, I don’t know of any tool that is available to delete the posts that ‘already’ deleted! I would imagine that a plugin could be written to do this for you, but in terms of space, I don’t think that a post takes up very much space in the database, but your point is taken with great attention! I would love a simple plugin to do this as well to clean up posts and topics and there are many great code writers that use this forum and I wouldn’t be suprised if one comes up to do just this!
Nice point!
Trent
It seems to me that you have permalinks on in your config.php and don’t have the apprpriate information in your .htaccess file. If you turn thm off in the config, it should work for you I think!
As well, check out the documentation as well for the permalinks!
Trent
Pravin you should post this patch as a ticket in TRAC so that the powers to be might get it in there (if you haven’t already or they already fixed it!)
