I’m having this same problem. Admin is able to see their user information but all other accounts are directed to a blank page.
I’ve been running a Simple Press forum for a while. Is there a migration tool available that helps me move to bbpress?
I have WordPress installed on my server in a directory “wordpress.” My users can access this installation by going to http://website.com/blog
I would like to have the same effect happen for the bb-press plugin when someone accesses http://website.com/forums
How can I set this up?

@OAEErra yeah…me too.. Im waiting on the release of the beta
I found my problem. I had created a forums page in wordpress when I was testing some things. I had trashed it, but not permanently deleted it. Looking in the database, I noticed the entry. Once I permanently deleted it from my pages list, my forums list showed back up.
@ patking, can you give us a url to see it? I can probably give you a css fix…
You can always override the default twentyten bbPress (core) theme using CSS, for most elements or their attributes.
However, to override the default markup, it would most likely require you to use an action or filter in your wp theme (or child theme) functions.php, or to modify the core plugin theme files (being aware of the fact that you would then have to protect these in the event of any plugin update). See this for a list of some 110 action hooks: https://gist.github.com/1372637
You could use body.bbPress xxxx {element:attribute;} in your css to help you restrict your css mods to only bbPress pages. I believe you can also use many bbPress specific conditional tags as well. See: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-conditional-tags
Hmm… so is there no way to override the bbPress theme, from my theme?
Is there at least a conditional tag I can use in my theme to determine whether I’m on a forum page or not?
Rastarr,
Thank you. I installed reCaptcha and I thought it stopped the spam. Not so as the advertiser got through again. Hmm.

Unfortunately you can’t do that…bbpress doesn’t work with the native wp template, or child, it only works “within” the template structure (think of it like an insert that goes into the content area of the wp template).
As a result, just make a regular page with your wp theme, and add shortcode to the post editor. If you want you can style the wp template for header and footer and sidebar and width, etc., but not to add the short codes for bbpress
Problem solved… Was an issue at service provider
I copied the bbpress files to my server, but I cannot get the admin/setup. It just goes to a standard godaddy screen. Im sure Im doing something wrong. I cannot even access the /index.php file?
Im a complete newbie to this, I thought it would be a snap but I guess not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
seems like spam is coming from non registered users, perhaps the best way to stop spam from coming in is to add re-captcha or something to the post box.
If you only allow registered users to post then you could add captcha or something to the registration page.
Running bbPress with Buddypress.
Whilst viewing a user’s profile, I’d like to simply display topics and posts by a given user. I tried lifting this bit of code, but it returns nothing.
Idears?
<?php bbp_set_query_name( 'bbp_user_profile_topics_created' ); ?>
<div id="bbp-author-topics-started" class="bbp-author-topics-started">
<div class="entry-content">
<?php if ( bbp_get_user_topics_started() ) :
bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/pagination', 'topics' );
bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/loop', 'topics' );
bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/pagination', 'topics' );
else : ?>
<p><?php bbp_is_user_home() ? _e( 'You have not created any topics.', 'bbpress' ) : _e( 'This user has not created any topics.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div><!-- #bbp-author-topics-started -->
Is there a setting or a way to set up bbPress so users can only register for one forum on one installation of bbPress? Is this an option or does it have to be coded in, and if it has to be coded in, is that something that can be done?
Undoubtedly, your easiest way to go is to use shortcodes for this purpose. You simply create a new page for each view (like forum-view), then add the shortcode you prefer to the page via the post editor. In this case a forum view is easy and uses “bbp-forum-index” (within short code brackets…remove the quotes). Here is a list of shortcodes to start: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-shortcodes

Does this plugin convert the comments to Topics?
OR
it converts the posts to topics?
I really need to convert my comments to topics and have discussion over there.
my url is palestinefacts.org
you can see there is very long homepage so i need to convert them to forums.
Well, I’ve got these installed:
bbPress Moderation
reCaptcha for bbPress 2.0
WangGuard
I also have ‘Anyone Can Post’ turned on as well. Little Spam coming my way now BUT I’d love if IntenseDebate was bbPress compatible
I think you should install Capthcha plugins. Search one for in Google.

I recently installed bbPress and found spam within 30 minutes. Akismet stops nothing that I can see. I set bbPress up so one had to register. That did not stop the spammers (advertisements for knockoffs). I did install the moderation plugins, but still no solution.
Right now I have Forums deactivated until I here there is any type of solution.

Thanks, Anointed.
Can you confirm whether bbconverter can import from phpbb 3.0.10
Thanks. I had seen another post mentioning that. Is there a standard way to reset all permalinks?
