Hi sorry for the bump, My bbpress is not integrated with wordpress, and the rewrite for profile edit “/profile/username/edit?q=” doesn’t seems to work, while the other works fine.. any suggestion for my problem? thx//
is there an ETA on a version of bbpress that will work with wordpress 2.6?
thanks!
david
bbPress 1.0 is always incompatible with WordPress 2.6 at this moment?
Hum, a Matt’s intervention is needed, no?
bye
1. Please post a link to your forum so we can take a look.
2. No styling usually means the path to the stylesheet is wrong. You can look in the source of the HTML to see that.
3. Redirecting is probably because you have true
or slugs
for your permalinks setting, but you haven’t set up permalinks yet. You can set the permalinks to false
to get the forum working right now, then take the next step and make permalinks work.
https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks
Either that, or the stylesheet is really not there at the URL you tried, and WordPress is intercepting that and sending you to 404 page.
Has anyone actually tried downgrading? I’ll admit I’m a little hesitant to downgrade from 2.6 to 2.5.1 for fear of running into even more problems. Are there any major database changes between the 2 versions that would cause any issues? I may give it a shot later today and post the results.
Edit: Just read the link above, apparently it’s safe to do.
You shouldn’t be installing bbPress in the WordPress plugin folder.
It’s not a plugin.
Hello,
i want to add at bbPress the 100% width in admin, like this plugin for wordpress:
So, the code is:
add_filter('tiny_mce_before_init', 'rmw_tinymce');
function rmw_tinymce($init){
$init = true;
return $init;
}
add_action(‘admin_head’,’rmw_head’,99); //Hook late after all css has been done
function rmw_head(){
global $is_IE; ?>
<style type=”text/css” media=”all”>
.wrap,
.updated,
.error,
.widefat,
#the-comment-list td.comment {
max-width: none !important;
}
<?php if( $is_IE ){ ?>
* html #wpbody {
_width: 99.9% !important;
}
<?php } ?>
</style>
<?php } ?>
but not works for bbPress… what can i do for the plugin works?
bye
Are the files actually installed in the WordPress plugin folder, or in a folder called forums now, located beside or or below the root WordPress folder?
I suggest anyone trying to integrate bbPress with WordPress should read the sticky at the top of the forum.
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101
It’s in there, very first post.

During step 3 of the installation process, I accidentally inputted the wrong URL for my forum.
It asked me for the Site address (URL), which was defaulted to:
http://mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/
I changed this to
http://mysite.com/forums/
Now I can’t access the forums at all, and I can’t figure out how to change the URL back. I looked at bb-config.php, but didn’t see any way to fix this.
I’m not good with PHP and I’m new to WordPress in general, so any novice advice would be much appreciated!
It’s definitely not ready for production use but the 1.0 alpha in the trunk is looking really good. Sam (and MDA) have been hard at work.
Looks a great deal like WordPress behind the scenes – I mean the new 2.5-2.6 look with rounded everything – but in our familiar and sharp looking green.
BackPress is now powering it which should unify us with WordPress more than ever before and accelerate feature development.
Hey it’s got a dashboard like WordPress now!

I also see they added Display Names to bbPress.

This actually is to my dismay but I guess other people may like them. (Personally for me it will be the first thing I disable – nothing but trouble with pesky childish users).
It also has categories built in: [screenshot]
If you are a power user and know what you are doing, give it a try in a test environment – do NOT overwrite an existing install, it’s not stable yet. Sam says they could use some testing bug reports on TRAC for it.
ps. even more good news is that many of my plugins seem to work hassle-free on it…

I am very new to wordpress. I read your post late. Have not yet installed BBpress but plan to do so. How do I downgrade 2.6 to 2.5 I could not get any information on the web regarding steps for downgrade. Please help and thanks in advance. I am sure mor epeople would want to know the same as more people will find out 2.6 and bbpress dont work
You should be able to put back 2.5.1 without incident.
Backing up your current site/db is always recommended.
dang it!
i wish i knew that before I upgraded..
what do i do know?
thanks!
Thank you very much chrishajer! It worked and I now have a forum on http://www.enkelwebbplats.se/forum
I am writing a little book in Swedish on how to start a website with WordPress and include bbPress for a discussion forum. The major fault with bbPress is now that is does not work to use Swedish names with diacritic characters like my own, Göran. I have asked for help in this forum before but no solution seems to exist. Strange since many other languages also use such characters and most people are somewhat offended if they cannot use their name if they want. All suggestions how to solve this problem is highly appreciated!
Need more info.
If it’s a plugin, and there’s a management page, maybe you could just hit the URL from another system that does have the ability to schedule tasks?
I never looked into how WordPress does pseudo cron…
Dollar sign might have to be urlencoded? Also you can integrate bbPress 0.9 with older versions of WordPress using these instructions:

Hello,
I have a problem with links like this:
http://www.forestry.gov.uk/PDF/fcpn9.pdf/$FILE/fcpn9.pdf
In case it’s been stripped out here as well, there ought to be a dollar sign before FILE. It’s in the db, so it’s being taken out on output.
I’m probably being a bit simple, but I couldn’t find the code that was doing this – I’d guess it’s something on the post_text filter.
I’m using WordPress 0.8.3.1 with the bbPress integration and WordPress Integration plugins. I would upgrade, but I don’t want to use WordPress 2.5 yet.
Thanks, Mike.
after upgrading to wordpress 2.6 i have a bit of a problem with bbpress
I’m trying to login to bbpress at:
http://lifelightcam.com/bbpress/
when i login, i am brought back to the same page, but I am not logged in.
Usuing the login form on that page, Does log me into wordpress.
what’s up?
Not yet. They may one day import the code from WordPress or eventually BackPress may solve the issue.
I think they’re using the term “vanilla” to mean “plain.” In other words, any standard installation of WordPress MU can be turned into a social network platform.
Vanilla, the forum software, doesn’t have anything to do with it, as far as I know.

can anyone please tell me is buddy press replacing bbPress? otherwise were wasting our time….
“BuddyPress will transform a vanilla installation of WordPress MU into a social network platform.”
vanilla is another forum, so im guessing BuddyPress will have its own forum… right so what the hell is bbPress for lol…
anyone help here?
