Hi,
I had error below(while I pressed Avatar button):
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/83/4464383/html/wordpress-mu/forums/profile.php:4) in /home/content/83/4464383/html/wordpress-mu/forums/bb-includes/functions.bb-pluggable.php on line 232
Pls heeeeeeelp!

To change the keys, just delete those four lines, and create new keys here:
https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/bbpress/
Then paste the new keys back into the same location in bb-config.php.
DO NOT attempt this if you have integrated logins with WordPress. You didn’t mention that, and the site you linked to comes up with forum first as the main page, not a WordPress blog. So, if you’re using just bbPress without integration, it’s safe to change those keys.
Here’s the advice from wp-config.php on what this does:
You can change these at any point in time to invalidate all existing cookies. This will force all users to have to log in again.
You didn’t mention earlier that you’re relying on the browser to save your password. I would try with a new browser and typing in the password manually to see if you get the failure on the first attempt with your known good password.
I wonder how this can be:
“I just attempted to do a perfectly clean upgrade: still getting the db connection issue after bb upgrade tells me I need to upgrade my DB. “
How can the bbPress upgrade/install know the database is out of date if it cannot connect to the database? I thought the version was stored in the database in the first place. I might have to try breaking my bb-config.php and attempting to upgrade a 0.9 installation to see how this works. Haven’t tried in a while.
Are you upgrading bbPress just to make integration with the latest WordPress easier?
The lead developer on BuddyPress explained the relationship this way: “There is code in BuddyPress that allows bbPress to install, configure and run all within the WordPress environment.”
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/future-of-bbpress#post-60022
They are definitely separate programs… it’s just that BuddyPress is based on WordPress MU, and the BuddyPress team has added the ability to install bbPress from inside of WordPress.
Hope that clarifies the relationship a bit more!
The renaming of the directory only come into play when you have an existing installation, and you change that folder name (some people install in http://www.example.com/bbpress/ and then realize later that path is accessible on visible, so they change it to “forum” or “discussion” or “community” or whatever.) The problem is, that folder name was stored in the database as part of the site URI (I think) so you are unable to access the forum in the new folder, since the database thinks the installation is somewhere else (original location.)
You can override the site URI in the bb-config.php (it’s not there in the 1.0 bb-config.php, but it is there in the 0.9 and earlier config, I think):
$bb->uri = 'http://www.example.com/forum/' (or change forum to the folder name that exists in your database. This line in bb-config.php will override the database.)
Also, it’s worth looking at the changes between bb-config.php from the 0.9 version to the 1.0 version. I have noticed with WordPress that even though you upgrade several times, you are left with the old existing wp-config.php and missing out on all sorts of stuff (like the security keys and cookie stuff from 2.7). Worth a shot to try your old database connection details in the bb-config-sample.php and see how it goes.
Also, is this a LAMP setup with PHP5, Apache, Linux, etc or is it OSX or Windows? Or localhost? Most installations are on LAMP so that’s the most likely help to find here.
Plugins and themes for bbPress. WordPress doesn’t matter at this stage of installation.
Are you installing bbPress as a WordPress plugin? bbPress is not a WordPress plugin.
Please provide the link to where you downloaded the files.
I downloaded the latest stable version right here. And I didn’t do anything about it, only changed the name of the folder bbPress to forum.
Do you mean themes and plugins for WordPress or bbPress?
Alex’s SVN links here:
https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wordpress-mobile-edition/trunk/wp-mobile.php
Lines 17 and 18 mention a GPL license:
17 // Released under the GPL license
18 // http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php
So you should definitely be able to release this plugin as a derivative work. Good thing too, b/c I’d love to use it!
Hey you guys,
So I have a fresh install of BBpress with WordPress. This is my first time using BBpress…
So I have a few errors on top and I don’t really know how to get rid of ’em. Can somebody please
help me out? Here’s the link: http://www.urbanstart.nl/forum/

Well, aren’t I an idiot. bbpress is not a real plugin to WordPress! I saw that someone had used bbpress on their WordPress site and jumped right on it. I guess I will go back to the ever so slow VastHTML forum plugin.
THIS!
Can anyone make that WP plugin a BBP plugin?
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/rpx/
I’ll give you a cookie
jcrens8392, if you would like this included in future versions, please open a ticket at trac: http://trac.bbpress.org – you can log in there with a wordpress.org username and password.
I just tried including wp-load.php from another WordPress site on the same server, like this, and it worked just fine:
require_once('../../dev/wp-load.php');
Maybe our PHP or server configurations are different. But this worked fine and did not error out. I also tried just including a test.php file that I created in the same directory (the file is empty) and that works fine too. PHP doesn’t care what’s in that file (or if there is even anything in there at all), so long as there is no syntax error.
Sorry everybody for my late response.
Thanks for all the positive replays, I am very happy but I would like to hear some critique or input on how to improve the website.
To Michael R: I hope so too because I like bbPress a lot and I will use it for my future projects.
To: Sander B: Thanks. Or in Dutch : Bedankt!
To: Jim R: This is not an example of bbPress as plugin but it is just WordPress / bbPress integration without “deep integration”.
I know this post is rather old, but none of the above suggestions worked. The problem with using the post_author_link or even get_user_link filters is that those only filter the “href” attribute, not the entire “a” tag. That means you can’t add rel=”nofollow” using those filters.
I wasn’t able to figure out a way to get it done without editing the core. I suggest the post_author_link() function around line 1747 of bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php be edited to allow the option of only returning the link rather than echoing it. That way, you can output the author links in your template (post.php) using something like this:
<?php bb_rel_nofollow(post_author_link(false)); ?>
With the “false” parameter telling WordPress to return the link rather than echo it. I believe that would work for future releases.
As for now, I believe you’ll have to open bb-includes/function.bb-template.php and edit the post_author_link and post_author_avatar_link functions to add rel=”nofollow” to the “a” tags. Those functions begin around line 1747 of bb-includes/function.bb-template.php.
Hope that helps.
“bbPress and WordPress are not cross aware of role changes.”
So what is the point of WP/bbPress Integration plugin, in which you cross assign roles?
I am trying to integration my WordPress site (the most current version of WP) with a bbPress but I can’t, for the life of me, get it to work. I can get it to share the user tables and user data but I can’t make it so if you login to the WP, then you are logged in automatically into the bbPress or vise versa.
The WP is on a domain and the bbPress is a subdomain:
-site.com (WP)
-community.site.com (bbPress)
^is how it is setup.
Would anyone be willing to help me setup these two up to work right? My lack of cookie knowledge is turning this into a huge headache! haha

My wordpress installation is in the top folder and then the forum installation is in a sub-directory (forum).
So wordpress is at http://www.unitedrant.co.uk and the forum is at http://www.unitedrant.co.uk/forum
Should the path be?
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘../wp-load.php’); – says no exists
or
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’); – get a blank screen
I FOUND THE PROBLEM!! YAAAAAAAY!!!
I had to go into my mysql database and had to delete the last change in my bb_meta which was a change with sth. like wp_ prefix.
I’m so happy now.

Hey all there,
I tried to integrate wordpress with my bbpress installation but it failed..
I edited a setting in the menue, I forgot which..
I typed “wp_” in a box where it needed to be, that’s what I understood after reading the description below the box.
Now the forum has no users! My users.php file looks like after the first installation..
I can’t login into the forum and so I can’t change it back to default..
Please help me.
{ The searchbar didn’t }
Zatoozy.

This will help playing with bbPress – http://blog.ashfame.com/bbpress/
By the way, you can just drop the bbPress files in a folder and install it like WordPress. Ditto method.
And if you want to integrate it as well, then you can find the link to tutorial on the resource page.
It’s my understanding that the next release (1.1?) will be a standalone version of bbPress with bug fixes and a few feature additions added (email notifications and anonymous posting).
In the longer term, I believe that bbPress will become solely a WordPress plugin just like BuddyPress. If that’s true, then the only standalone version of bbPress will be the earlier versions, which of course are GPL and anyone is free to download and/or fork!
I’m not an authority figure, but I can tell you that bbPress is turning into a WP plugin.
So bbPress does have a future; steps have been made to do this. Release date is uncertain though.
Not sure what is going to happen when bbPress turns into a WP plugin in BuddyPress.
I think BP will adapt to fit this new incarnation of bbPress when it comes out.
What is uncertain is the people who use bbPress w/o WordPress. Is there going to be a standalone version of bbPress in the future? That’s the question.
I’ve built a website using wordpress and want to add a discussion forum. Looks like bbpress will do it, but I’m new to building websites and could use any help I could get. Are there spelled out instructions anywhere??
Here is my bbPress resource page
