Hello all.
I know the title is a bit of a mess but I am a uber n00b. Im sure most of you know the answers and I have done some searching before posting here.
Anyway, here we go.
1) Widgets. I have some widgets at the side of the forum and in the topics that I don’t want. All that I would want is a recent topics and a login (perhaps a Facebook login) not all the gaff I have at the moment.
2) I have tried to understand how to get the forum looking like my site but it’s beyond my level of ability. I have the Ecobiz theme from themeforest and the two seam to be fighting each other.
3) I did get a plugin to enable users to login using Facebook. I made the ‘my-plugin’ folder and added all the plugin files but I can’t see where in the bbPress settings page to enable the plugin.
Finally, why does my forum page give the name of a private forum that I have created and not something like ‘Forum’
As I said, some simple but rather fundamental problems here.
Hope you can help. Here is the site address. http://www.harwichfoe.co.uk/forums
Cheers
I got it working. If anyone happends to have the same question here is my solution:
This solution is for the bbPress Plugin version.
1. Got to “https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/nl/default”.
2. Log in
3. Export the .mo file at the bottom and download it.
4. Place it in the following dir “/wp-content/languages/bbpress/”.
5. Rename is to “bbpress-nl_NL.mo”.
6. Make sure you have filled the correct languages in your wp-config.php: ‘nl_NL’.
If there is an easier way feel free to leave a comment.

Dear community,
I am looking for the dutch translation of the bbPress forum, but I can’t find it.
I have looked in the repository at “http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/”, but there isn’t a nl_NL version.
I know that there is a translation available, because when I look in GlotPress I see that the dutch translation is 100% completed.
See: http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/nl/default.
Can anyone point me to the downloadable .mo or .po files of the dutch translation?
Thanks,
Tobias.
humm it’s weird 
Anyway, if I have some page styles, may I use them in some way for bbpress forum? for example full width page template? Thanks
Yes, same exact problem. Did updating to rc3 fix it for you?
@Trifon Thanks for that, worked a treat this end!
@Trifon Thanks for that, worked a treat this end!
Yes, on RC 3 is working ok, thanks for the update 
Ok, I’m a complete nubee to WordPress and bbPress so please bear with me. I have been tasked with customizing the Twenty Ten theme with bbPress plugin (Twenty Ten) child theme.
Can someone tell me what would be best, to modify these themes as they are or should I make a copy and rename them and create new themes? If so, how do I go about doing this? For instance, how would I get the renamed versions to read each other and work together?
Another question I have is… If I were to just modify these themes, will they be overwritten if I were to do an automatic update of WordPress or the bbPress plugin?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Just comment the call of
bbp_get_topic_tag_template()
in bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-core-compatibility.php
and it will work.

It looks very good! I’ve read about a bit and it seems to be working. I haven’t had much practice with reading German, but I can understand it pretty well.
The stand-alone version will indeed not get further updates, although it has been said (somewhere) that security updates will still be released (when necessary).
The plugin is the way the project will continue. I think because it will all be reliant on WP.org’s core.

It has been announced that full integration of the plugin version should happen in the next release of BP.
As BP is currently still in 1.5 beta-2, we can’t yet peek at the development versions of the next one. But I’m curious as to how much of the BP-core will change to enable the plugin version of bbP to work properly.

It’s the “good old” pretty permalinks error, which we had earlier in the alpha/beta stage.
If you go to Settings > Permalinks on your Dashboard, just save your settings and it should clear up.

Hi
Just installed bbpress plugin on wordpress mu site, with the url being
http://pianowizardacademy.com/play/forum/
(haven’t made any tweaks to the theme yet)
However, going to that page brings up the apologies page not found. To get to the actual board, have to go to
http://pianowizardacademy.com/play/forum/board/
Problem is, the HOME page link leads to the first page which is not what I want, since the forums aren’t listed there and the page not found error.
I guess I can resolve this with 301 redirect, but I’m wondering why can’t I access the forums on “HOME” page in the menu?
thanks
Hi, try to press the “Save Changes”-Button in the settings.
I have an other problem with the replies, but i am not sure, if that is a problem connected with the update. http://minecraftreport.de/forums/topic/erster-erster-erster Any ideas?
Edit: Maybe a doctype problem?

Love the shortcodes! Job well done on this plugin version. I can now use a shortcode on a custom page and display this as the root of my site in WP while keeping WP for additional pages/posts! 
Thanks a million!
Well I’m not sure what happened.. I reinstalled from the branch. I was still getting 404 errors at this point. ( I didn’t clear the cache so maybe that was it)
Then I deactivaed all plugins except for Askimet. Then I tried it and it worked. I assumed I had found a bad working relationship with one of my other plugins…
I re-activated one plugin at a time and the refreshed the dashboard page then I went out to my forum page. http://jeff-foliage.com/fall-foliage-forum/
and it still worked after reactivating each and every plugin following the above procedure of
re-activate
refresh
refresh forum page
click to see if it’s working
repeated as necessary but now I can’t duplicate and all my plugins are re-activated and I feel stupid…
I noticed this happened to one other user who turned in a trouble report…
Am I mostly the only one to have trouble??? Murphy’s Law?? I hope this helps someone…

I also tried posting a new topic and I got a 404 error…
I also tried posting a new topic and I got a 404 error…
Upgraded to RC3 and I can no longer get to any of my topics.. I can see them listed but I only get 404 errors when I click on any of my topics. I reloaded the release from the branch but no change.. Do we have release #2 available somewhere?
I though maybe I could back of one version and see if it still works.. If there is still an error then I thought I would shut down all the plugins to see if that is it…
But I haven’t activated any new plugins recently so I don’t think that is it… Bu maybe the new release is having troubles with one of the ones already installed…
Hmmmm.

I managed to customize my registration form using the following thread…
http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/customizing-profile-fields
However, all the info submitted via registration is posted on the user’s profile page (which is PUBLIC!). I would like some of these fields to be hidden from the public (and only viewable by the administrators, via the admin section).
So, if a user posts their phone number during registration, I DO NOT want the phone number posted online for everyone to see. I want it invisible to the public, and only viewable by my admins.
Can anyone help me do this???
