@acoburn4 – Sadly you won’t be able to. Because all of WordPress is being rewritten to /blog, it would take some server level rewriting to make your forums work below it. Even then, I am not sure it would really work. You’ll want to make your entire site run at website.com, create two pages: /blog and /forums, then setup each the way you want them to be.

It’s custom built for the site. Based off the original Kakumei theme (for bbPress 1.1)
Could someone tell me what theme BBPress.org is using?
Thanks! 
Also, users are able to edit the admin’s profile.
I upgraded to 3690 and then back down to 2.02 with no results.
I defaulted the WordPress theme to twenty_ten no results.
Installed capability manager and verified that users were able to view forum information.
I’m having a problem where Admin is able to see their user information and all forum data but all other accounts are directed to a blank page.
This is the “local” address users get sent to http://pcocs/forums/users/skingsford/
This is where admins are directed. http://pcocs/forums/users/admin/
They have “gform_full_access”
I’m using the latest version of wordpress(3.3.1) and bbpress (2.02). I nuked everything related to bbpress including the db entries. reinstalled, and the same issue is occurring.
Disabled all plugins, and re-activated the plugin. Still unable to access user profile as another user. Able to access profile in dashboard.
Rebuilt the permalinks.
No themes, no plugins, just default data.
Any thoughts on what would cause this to occur?

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
