Not sure if that still works but that’s the only plugin I know of.
And threaded comments are built in to the latest version of WordPress, aren’t they? What does the plugin do?
@Mooks, the icons that you talk about are not included in the theme those are all plugins.
@biggerbyfar “http://www.mikelothar.com/post/134732685 (download link is on the right side) “
Yep, I’d definitely use this theme if it was available. Anyone know where to get it?
The 0.9 version of bbPress integrates with WordPress 2.7.1.
Some above have mentioned “less is just less”… and for a non-hacker like myself, I agree. I’d like to see bbpress come “fully loaded”, at LEAST with all the basic features one sees in SMF and phpbb3 all ready to rock and roll “out of the box”.
FULL integration / merging with WP would be my pick. Then themers would have to work harder developing the bb into their themes for each WP “community portal” (What I’m calling the FULL WP / bbpress / buddypress / bbsync package).
I’ve also expressed my ‘wish list’ here.

However, having said that I totally agree with the moderator above who said “So it’s something about the promise of bbPress that’s not yet been realized that gets people frustrated.” WordPress is way cool, and with a *truly* integrated bbpress portal system, it would rock the world and give Drupal and Joomla and SMF and phpbb3 a good run for their money! Imagine a Fantastico install of WP, and then just ticking some boxes and all the bbpress stuff was already there, “fully loaded” with all the options and ready to rock & roll?
Ahhhh, I’m a suckie Myer’s Briggs ENJF idealist… can’t help myself….
I just need links back to the pages.
Yes. I used that. But the plugin have a problem. I can only show 1 youtube video per post. Anyone had the same experience?
Latest news:
I made a kind of Latest Featured Articles widget on the front website.
– I found a very neat CSS/Jquery snippet that i hooked up with the wordpress loop, added a plugin called
“custom-field-images” so I can add image metatags on my blog posts, and then echoing the url to the featured article widget.
The result is an image with some transparent hovering div over with headlines and excerpt + a list of the latest blog posts that are powered by Jquery to change the main image and text om click.
Okay I think I got it. Thanks to Kernpunt (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/first-pass-at-a-fix-for-deep-integration-in-trunk#post-55915) I didn’t have access to the error logs.
I deactivate both plugin from both sides (for now).
I didn’t have clue what it was. I thought it was because my php memory was limited.
Now I’m integrating BBpress theme into WP!
Ruby on Rails has some stuff to allow memcached storage of user sessions:
http://awesomerails.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/memcache-sessions-in-rails/
@finalwebsite – _ck_ is a female developer. 
I was referring to her statements that “the performance boost will be trivial, almost non-existent for a single server setup” and ” Memcache is only beneficial for multi-server systems, it’s why it was invented in the first place.” But ymmv!
Depends. Where do you want them to appear in BBpress and what part of your blog do you want to link to?
Hi,
I dont know if I min the right category but i didn’t know where o post something like this.
We ve got a website with joomla and we are making the new one in wordpress.
Everything till now is ok.
Our problem is how to transfer the forum.
It is no need to keep all the data or the user’s accounts, so we said only to transfer the posts and the categories, and offcourse some details about the posts , like date time and person name.
We thought to make a new user named “old forum” and link to him all the posts that are not written by the admin.
Here come the questions(?)
How i can link in the database the posts and the categories?
Which tables do i have to use?
Is something like this possible?
Thank you in advance,
Dinos
I’ve abandoned this idea now. Until BBPress makes this ALOT easier to achieve sometime in the future.
I added a link to the forum on the mainsite, and it opens in a new window. Looks good.
That’s not half bad. Thanks a lot for the link! I really appreciate it.
I’d create one myself, but sadly I think it’s a bit beyond my ability to do so.
I am definitely drawn to simple and clean designs. I really dislike bulletin boards with flames, stars, folders, happy faces, lots of colors, etc.
How do you add links back to your wordpress site?
Sam had some thoughts on how bbPress 1.0/Backpress enabled the WordPress memcached plugin here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/topic-query-count-in-alpha-10-any-progress#post-19600
_ck_ also had some thoughts on how memcached would or wouldn’t increase performance (although it sounds like performance isn’t your main goal in making the switch):
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/covert-wp-super-cache-plug-in-for-bbpress/page/2#post-38232
Good luck – and keep us posted on how it goes!
yes right the theme from the MU forum looks great.
Mooks, why not changing the basic theme too looks like this one?
@usera
Instead of memcache, output caching might be a better option for non-logged in user. Something like WordPress’ SuperCache plugin.
More information can be found about this discussion here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/covert-wp-super-cache-plug-in-for-bbpress#post-37072
Essentially, a lot of people would love the SuperCache plugin to be converted for use with bbPress … but no one has yet committed to performing the work needed to convert the plugin 
I did this at http://aberean.org and http://forum.aberean.org
I used the WP Plugin (page links to) and then added a new page named forum to my WP site with a redirect (Page links to) to my forum.
With the forum I had to manually add links in the footer (or header) to link back. It was pretty easy and I think it looks ok. I have not themed the forum to mimic WP as of yet, to much else to do first!
Can someone tell me what’s the status with bbpress and memcache? I see backpress is meant to unify memcache in both installations but is there a working beta to get both working? I currently using version two of the object-cache on my wordpress and unfortunately i suppose that is what is causing the problem with the bbpress integration plugin. Any clues or more info?
Thank you.
Hi There,
I was looking into bbpress, but I hadn’t really seen any themes that caught my attention with the exception of the theme at the following:
http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/forum/5
In my opinion, it is the simplest and cleanest of all themes I’ve seen. Is there a theme like this available for download? Most of the other bbpress themes I’ve seen look too busy and cluttered, and prefer the simple and clean look of the aforementioned.
Thanks in advance for replies.
Try define( 'BBDB_HOST', '0.0.0.0' );
my-templates are 750, you’re saying it should be 755? Does that apply to my-plugins too?
Anyone want to tackle my other problem? (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpressmu-bbpress-theme)
OK should be simple right? Worked when I did it locally using MAMP and all was fine, then going live uploaded and …. nothing just the ‘ERROR: Could not establish a database connection’ message.
WP is installed in the main directory and bb press is in lalala.com/forum
I’ve gone over the wp-config files and they are the same, any ideas guys?
// ** MySQL settings for BB** //
define( ‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘lalalala_live’ );
define( ‘BBDB_USER’, ‘barry’ );
define( ‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘****’ );
define( ‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’, ‘0.0.0.0’ );
define( ‘BBDB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’ );
define( ‘BBDB_COLLATE’, ” );
$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’;
// ** MySQL settings for wordpress ** //
define(‘WP_CACHE’, true); //Added by WP-Cache Manager
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘lalalala_live’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘barry’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘****’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘0.0.0.0’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’;
