Unfortunately my folder is named wp. The rewrite did remove the second occurrence of the folder but it also removed the wp in wp-admin, so it didn’t work for me.
I followed soggybiscuit’s path, that’s working so far.
I have the same problem, but unlike your setup, I have never added topic-tags via the admin side.
This problem exists on every install I use.
We do have one thing in common, being that I also use custom themes by adding all the needed bbPress files to the theme. However, even if I revert to twentyten ‘stock’ I still have the problem.
I need some help with the bbpress plugin, default theme in a custom template.
Please see: http://rhodyjobs.com/forums/topic/rhodyjobs-com-launches-new-forums-for-members/
Above the post, there is a spacing, which I cant find or remove in any css file.
Any ideas?
Also, I want to remove this box:
“This topic has 2 voices, contains 1 reply, and was last updated by George 2 days ago.”
But the only place I can find it is in the twentyten theme which i’m not using.
PLEASE HELP.
Thanks in advance.
Did that work for you juggledean?
I’ll think on it more but the basics are that I have a customized bbPress theme installed as a child theme in wp-content/themes/ . This is a copied and modified version of bbPress’ base theme (I included all the theme files since I’ve needed to get into a lot of them). I’ve renamed that bbPress child theme (and its directory) bbps.
All the topics are entered via the front-end forum vs the admin panel.*
Finally, I don’t know that the tag archive was ever working correctly on these sites and then stopped. I’ve only seen it print all the topics instead of the respective tag’s topics.
For now I’m still accepting tags on new topics but I’m not displaying them on the single topic listing or the single topic edit page. If there was a way to remove the A tags from the tag list outside of core code I would do that so that I could at least display the tags in the short-term but it’s not a primary need.
If I can answer more questions about my installs let me know.
*I had an issue with a couple topics that I had started in the WP forum admin that was resolved after I deleted those and re-entered them through the forum itself, so I’ve stuck with that approach for now. The issue, as an aside, was that the topics were reflected in the Forum Archive topics count for each forum but the forum’s page showed no topics and the topic’s pages were 404.
The test profile that I created cannot Reply to a comment or post a new topic. However they can post a comment in WordPress. Under the User tab in the Admin panel the profile is listed as having no role. When I update the users role, click save and return to Admin user tab they still have no role. In the bbpress/wordpress intergration tab All wordpress roles are marked as member (aside from admin). What is going on?
How do I fix this?

Did you get my message about a generic ‘bbpress theme plugin’ skeleton component?
Basically just like we talked about last month, I was thinking it would be really beneficial if there were a generic plugin that we could use for our custom themes.
I’m thinking just the barebones basic setup. Heck even if the plugin included all the default template files it would be great.
Then all we would have to do is replace the template files in the plugin with our own, so long as the names are the same.
*well I know there is a bit more to it than that, but I think you get the idea of what I am after.
And yeah, it is 5:30am, ouch… have not slept all weekend as trying to finish this up, crazy tired now.
Best way to stay updated is to subscribe to this topic. 
Thanks. I thought they might have been linked, but I wasn’t sure.
How did you go about protecting your ‘members only’ section of your site? You’ll want to apply that same logic to feeds as well. If there is a core bbPress bug causing this, please open a trac ticket to discuss.
Rename your template-twocolumn.php to ‘bbpress.php’ and you’re all set.
Change your password over in the WordPress.org forums. Sign-up-Lost-Pass here is temporarily being worked on.
I have another account linked to my most-used current e-mail, but I can’t log into it. The password was possibly random, but I either lost it or just can’t remember it. I can’t reset my password via e-mail because when I get a Password Reset e-mail, the link in the e-mail takes me to a page where it says “I am not allowed to change my password”. I definitely still use the e-mail associated with that bbPress Support Forums account. At the least, I we could delete the old account and change the e-mail of this account that I’m using to post this to the e-mail from the old account. It’s basically just an @ymail to @gmail change anyway. Please help, and thanks.
I need help performing a basic function. I have a WordPress blog with bbPress installed as a plugin. I would like all of my forums pages (ever) to show up on a custom two-column WordPress page template that I made (template-twocolumn.php) rather than the default three-column template for my site’s theme. I can put a forums shortcode on a WordPress page with a custom template, but the forums will still really just be using the three-column template, and it will show when I click any links to a new forums page. Can someone please help me make it so that the entirety of bbPress uses one particular non-default template page style?
I have WordPress 3.2.1 and bbPress 2.0. My website is at http://www.vgreboot.com/ . Thanks.
Thank you. I really appreciate you guys being on top of this! Please keep me updated on any fixes.
I have solved the problem. Not exactly sure how I did it. I installed a new database a few different times, but I was still getting the same errors.
Then I installed a new database, activated my bbPress plugin first, and everything worked fine. Then I installed BuddyPress after that. Another thing that I did was to NOT activate the “Discussion Forums” on BuddyPress in the settings page. I had a problem with that before and saw a thread that recommended that as solution.
In any case, things seem to be working for now.
I also sent them a contact form requesting access in order to help and troubleshoot.
I have an issue that seems to be with the theme I am using. When I install bbPress, it doesn’t register a title when I look at my view source code. I also get an “Error 404” message in the breadcrumbs of my site’s theme (NOT in the bbPress breadcrumbs).
I don’t get this when I switch to a default WP theme, so it seems related to my theme (WPzoom’s Manifesto).
I have run a buddypress update plugin thinking this might help, but it doesn’t. I also get this message with BuddyPress compatibility: “Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.” (I’m fine with the bbPress default styling, by the way. Just wondering if the first part of that message might relate to my problem in any way.)
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Despite the inflammatory remarks from their team in the topic you linked me to, I tweeted the Pagelines guys about getting access to their forums or getting things figured out together.
Considering you are paying them for support, I think the ball is in their court. If there’s a problem with their theme and bbPress they need to put a guy on it and send me a theme to test, similar to how StudioPress and Genesis handled it for the 2.0 release.
If bbPress is doing something that’s causing headaches, I’m happy to fix it – the difference being that bbPress’s code is immediately accessible to them, and their themes are not to me.
I said I never saw a mass action in Standalone bbPress for posts. That was your answer but I asked did you use Akismet too or nope? The Akismet didn’t care of spammers?
It seems that the bbPress 2.0 plugin is using my blog posts setup for forum topics and forums list. This is an issue to me because I do not want to have post author information or the comments section to display in the forum topics.
Here is an example: http://www.fanoop.com/forums/topic/one-more-test/
I am using Pagelines Platform Pro theme. I have also posted this topic on their forums (http://www.pagelines.com/forum/discussion/14742/bbpress-2.0), but it seems that it is an issue between the plugin and WordPress…
Is there a way to separate the forums from the blog post style? I obviously don’t want to turn off commenting site wide, but this is an issue.
Not currently possible, and not planned.
Short answer, no.
The new bbPress plugin uses custom post-types ‘topics/replies’ so technically topics and replies are already posts.
It’s easiest to think of forum topics as simply WordPress posts that are simply styled as forum topics by using special templates.
Of course anything is possible to build.
Are there any plugins available for bbPress/WP post synchronisation? By this, i mean that any new posts created in WP are automatically created in the bbPress forums.
I know there are plugins available for older stand-alone version of bbPress which won’t work. Basically what i’m trying to achieve is, when a new post is posted in the category “reviews”, it appears in the forum “reviews” and so forth.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Had the ram allocation bumped to 128 by the host… all plugins disabled, still cannot activate bbpress. I had mentioned that in the above posts. I also tried reinstalling the whole thing fresh to no avail. There is clearly another issue at hand.
