backpress? I think that’s something else completely… I’m using this:

Thanks for your efforts!!!

I have another (supposedly) silly question.
I have added fields I need to the topic post type, thank you very much. However, I am finding it difficult to post them to the database when I enter any data from the frontend. I can add all the inputs to those fields from WordPress editor, but on-page fields fail on me.
Can I just replicate bbp_form_topic_title() function and modify the new one to suit my needs?
No Core Code has been harmed as yet.

Run an svn checkout of the bbPress plugin, and just svn update periodically.
If this is on a remote server and you’re using SVN, you’re probably SSH’ed in, so…
cd wp-content
cd plugins
mkdir bbpress
cd bbpress
svn co https://bbpress.svn.wordpress.org/branches/plugin .

I want to thank you for making this plugin. It’s been too long that WordPress users have waited for a fully integrated forum.
I’m also really happy that it’s coming out in a few days. This is just what I need.
Thanks again.

Correct: alpha, beta, stable. Here at bbpress.org, we’re still running the stand-alone installation of bbPress. We are (kind of) following my own advice and not running pre-release software on a live environment. Instead, we’re running the latest trunk version of bbPress stand-alone which will eventually be 1.1.
It’s complicated. 
All you need to know, is the plugin version sounds like it’s exactly what you want, and it is only a few days away from being a public alpha.

You really shouldn’t have one WordPress installation inside another. That’s a recipe for exactly the kind of disaster you’re experiencing, since it’s most likely conflicting .htaccess files trumping each other.
“Running nested WP installs” is different than “Running WP in a subdirectory” because of exactly what I mentioned above. If you install WP in a subdirectory, it won’t care where it is (or what its path is) as long as you install WP correctly. Once you nest several installations on top of each other, you’re setting yourself up for headaches unless you’re able to fluently track down and alleviate the rewrite issues you’ll run into.
An important piece of missing information, do both of the WordPress installs work independently without bbPress activated on either of them? Pretty permalinks turned on, on both, etc… Once you get that to behave first, then it’s time to try adding things into them.

But the plugin will? That’s impressive! I can’t wait until the plugin comes out. I just installed a test bbpress on a dummy site to see how it looks. It’s pretty smooth. I really think bbpress has the potential to dominate the forum industry if people get behind it like they do WordPress.
You’re running the alpha version now, correct? Then comes the Beta and then the stable?

The regular bbPress installation won’t do that without much, much work.
For example, here at bbPress.org, we have 1 unified theme, that both the blog and the forums use. It’s a completely custom theme, on top of a very complicated installation that integrates with shared user tables over at wordpress.org, several themes and plugin repositories, etc…
So, it can be as simple or as complicated as you need it to be, but the plugin version of bbPress will give you a huge head start.

You’ll want to use the bbPress plugin with some custom template files, and customize it to taste. Anything is possible.

@tooltrainer – seems to be working on a shared hosting server:
http://inadir.ryanserver.net/newdir/?forum=abc
vanilla WP 3.1.2 installed to an empty folder, and there’s nothing in the root.
set theme to: bbPress (Twenty Ten) 1.1 by WordPress and bbPress teams
unzipped branches_plugin-3138 and uploaded to:
/public_html/inadir/newdir/wp-content/plugins/bbpress
added a couple of emtpy forums, added ‘bbPress forum list’ widget
no errors, appears normal.
hope this helps.
In my wordpress website I have the mainpage(index) and several pages, all of which have the content on the left, a middle column that contains advertisements, and a right column which contains widgets.
Is it possible to install a fully integrated bbpress forum that is a page to the wordpress website? Stated differently, can I put all of the contents of the forum in the left hand column, and keep the middle column of ads and the right column of widgets?
