Has anyone got any ideas on this? It’s very odd as it seems to only affect the main forum list subsequent forum / topic lists seems to be fine width wise and adjust with the page in different resolutions / as the browser gets resized.
I’ve tried fiddling about with the CSS for the .bbp-forums class but it seems to take no notice (however the subsequent topics / forums seem to do so)
I’ve had to install bbpress a little differently than @jjj specified in his sticky thread I had to do the following:
Create a ‘Forums’ page of template type bbPress – Forums (Index)
As I’m using a child theme of twenty ten I can’t use the child theme method as it complains about having too many functions.php s. So I copied the contents (except the functions.php and style.css) of the bbp-twentyten folder into my child theme then added the theme support in twenty-ten’s function.php. This seemed to work but no styles were being applied so i copied the bbpress.css contents into my style.css and now everything looks great I just can’t get the main forum index to resize with the page and it looks really messy under the side bar.
Using chrome’s ‘Inspect Element’ I can see the table.bbp-fourms takes up more width than the #content div but I have no idea how to restrain it to using only the width of #content.
Any help at all greatly appreciated and Thank you for a fantastic plugin.

Update: the error message only occurs when I am logged in. It occurs when anyone is logged in to bbpress and click on the forum links in the left hand sidebar.
I think this started when I upgraded the beta version this morning. After clicking on a forum I get the correct screen with this message at the bottom,
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bbp_current_user_can_create_topic_in_forum() in /hermes/bosweb26a/b1658/d5.savethec/public_html/stc/wp-content/themes/bbp-atahualpa366/bbpress/form-topic.php on line 17
This does not seem to effect anything.
Here is the link. http://www.savethecolors.com/?forum=test2-2
I managed to get past the fatal error by adding these two lines in my bp-config.php file:
define('BB_DATABASE_CLASS', 'BPDB');
define('BB_DATABASE_CLASS_INCLUDE', false);
Now I’m getting more errors:

Hmmm, that’s curious. I’ve re-tested. No plugins, twenty ten theme, regenerated permalinks, and I can’t use the same slug. I get a page not found error when trying to view standard tag…
waitaminute…
Ah, there’s the conflict. Something I should have tested earlier.
If the 2 slugs are the same, and the
“Incude the Forum Base slug in your single forum item links”
Option is unchecked, that’s when I get the clash…..
I’m trying the beta 2 of bbPress plugin in my localhost environment.
I noticed that all subscriber users can view deleted posts or posts marked as spam by the admin.
Is it a bug?
Curiously I have testbp.org setup to use the same slug for blog tags and topic tags, and see no issues.
Just installed beta 2…. lovely so far 
Just figured I’d report this here for information. I’m not skilled enough to know which end the conflict would be on.
With Otto’s SFC (Simple Facebook Connect) there are numerous modules that go with it. There seems to be a conflict between bbPress plugin, and the Like button module.
When the Like button is active, I can get to the main forum listing. But if I click to get to the individual forum pages, I just see the title and nothing further.
This only occurs when running it straight from the plugin. I have a simple twenty ten child theme on VoodooPress. I originally dropped all the files into my theme, and it worked fine. But I don’t want to run it that way, as the intent of the site is to always run a customized (child) version of whatever WP’s default theme is. So keeping just the plugin running is easier.
When I drop all the files out of my theme, and run bbPress as just a plugin, I get the conflict.
Just wanted to make everyone aware in case they run into this. So far, bbPress is a great plugin. Slowly working through things to figure it out.
Discovered the problem in my situation. It was a permalink clash. The default settings for the forums sets the tags slug as tags. My permalinks for WP have the default tag base of tags. So the default forum and standard WP tags were conflicting. When I renamed my forum tag slug to topic-tags everything works again
I haven’t quite figured out the best way to reliably integrate the login/register/lost-password pages into theme compatibility yet. The tentative plan is to finish up their shortcodes so they can be used on any page and ready for 2.0.
@danieljuhl – The hidden and private forum support is more-or-less baked into bbPress core to provide that functionality to other plugins, most notably BuddyPress which uses them for public and private group forums. There’s a high likelihood the forum visibility option will be hidden from bbPress 2.0, with the option for developers or other plugins to enhance that functionality.
Closing this topic, as the importer is now bundled with bbPress 2.0

Looks like it is possible to register new users with a link like this:
http://riftlabs.com/wp/wp-login.php?action=register
This displays a page saying “WordPress – Register for this site” which is a bit confusing
Is there a way to register new users in such a way that it looks like users are signing up to the forum and not to WordPress?
Also, the email confirmation roundtrip takes the users back to the homepage. It would be super if it took the user back to the forum.
Cheers,

I ran the upgrade yesterday from the import menu after installing the plugin, and it worked great. I had some issues where topics lost the topic_author field, but I think that may have happened when converting from phpbb to bbpress, not from bbpress1 to bbpress2.

Hi
The forum plugin is amazing and I love it. Huge kudos!
I’m trying to get a forum up and running at http://www.riftlabs.com
I’m using bbPress with an existing Woo template.
The (only?) thing I can’t seem to add is user registration. There is no widget or shortcode for it.
I tried adding bbPress – TwentyTen as a child theme, but that messes up the layout, which is to be expected, I guess.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Morten
Most likely because it used your WordPress user tables and not your bbPress ones. So all of your topics and posts technically don’t have user accounts connected to them anymore
Is that an expected result of using the integration tool in 1.0.3?
Oh, I just noticed this:
Since you have two sets of user tables (WordPress/bbPress) there’s no way to automate the merging of them. You’ll either need to do it manually, or pick one set over the other.
I don’t actually care what happens to my WP users TBH — there is only one account attached to all of the blogging and page creation and I can recreate that account (that account’s pages and posts, not so much). Is there anything I can do in this scenario if I don’t care about maintaining my WP users or don’t mind recreating them? I’ll still need to have one WP admin user at the end of it all so I can actually log in, of course.

I guess that would be easier if I could make WP integration work on my existing install, since I’d be able to look at a bbpress database that was already mapped to WP roles. Do you know why my integration attempt resulted in all of my bbpress user accounts being turned into anonymous? There was no error, I just had no more accounts when it completed. They keymaster was also logged out and removed.
