@CrownOfMars – Looks like depending on how your forums are setup, that WordPress is doing some canonical redirecting. I’ll see what I can do to prevent that from happening here.
Thanks for your response. I have my 404.php setup to redirect to my homepage so i’m not sure what’s going on.
The thing is, when i switch back to the default TwentyTen theme forums/forum works as an achieve page with the heading “Blog Archives”.
Sorry if i’m confusing you!
@CrownOfMars – There is no need for a ‘/forums’forum’ page, and it should be redirecting to a 404 page, using your 404.php template file. Because a forum is of the post type ‘forum’ that’s how WordPress knows what kind of content to serve up, what template to use, etc…
Worked out how to do what i posted above.
Can someone please explain to me why this is happening?

I’m pretty sure this page is using archive.php, which i haven’t changed from the default TwentyTen theme.
I’ve had to create my own page named forums and insert the shortcode [[bbp-forum-index] in order to achieve what i want on the forums/forum page. It is located here:
http://stephenjohnmartin.com/spa/forums/
Basically, how do i make forums/forum appear the same as /forums, or, how do i remove the need for the forums/forum page?
Sorry i’m a rookie.
bbPress only supports MySQL. 
bbPress only supports MySQL.
I am having this same problem. When I integrated by WordPress and bbpress, I lost access to my bb-admin. I believe it’s because I forgot to specify my user roles. I am searching for a fix.
I’ve tried completely removing by bbPress install and re-doing it, to no avail.
And I can’t even find a file called “wp_usermeta” in my WordPress database.
Any suggestions?
thanks
I saw a list of shortcodes mentioned a few pages back.
I’ve been able to get [bbp-forum-index] to work easily.
How do i get the [bbp-single-forum] shortcode to work?
I’ve tried [bbp-single-forum id="# of the forum"] without luck?
Well, I managed to solve the issue by switching to the LAMP VM. Evidently there is either something wrong with the LAPP VM, or bbpress will only run on MySQL.
Thanks for the help everyone,

Nothing really. It’s mostly for the AJAX of the favorites and subscribe links, which work perfectly fine without it.

I have searched for this for hours.
Our support phone system takes voicemail and emails them as an mp3. We want this to create a post on bbpress so our staff can all see it, can see replies and comments and we can track each call. Is this possible?
alpha you say!!!?… But running strong! 
Thanks to all bbpress devs who made it a lot easier to maintain a wp site and forum in one package;)
Not 100% done theming but here it is: http://archaudio.org/forums/
How can we get informed when the plugin alpha becomes available?
Yes Yes, I’m sure!
I don’t know how to do, and I can not do many tests because the forum is very active.
One idea that occurred to me is to make copies of the databases and delete everything and start from scratch without the integration of wordpress, but I have all users actually on wordpress, and I have no idea how to pass the users from wordpress to bbpress.
Would greatly appreciate your ideas
many thanks

I’ve updated the script, the latest version can be found here which addresses the issues highlighted by jonkristian (replies not being displayed) and Rick (errors from plugins – turned debug option off by default, though it is recommended that you turn off all plugins) and some others too.
Rick: You should put only the bbs2p.php file in the root directory (where you have wp-config.php. Then change those lines to:
define( 'BBS2P_WP_PATH', '' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */
define( 'BBS2P_BB_PATH', 'forums/' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */
JJJ: I’m on that.

Follow up question,
What would I be losing if I don’t include the rest of the bbpress related stuff in the child theme functions.php?

Hello,
I just accidentally integrated bbPress with WordPress without first editing the bbPress User map role to ensure the Admin was linked to Key Master. Now my WordPress login works for both, but I can no longer access the bbPress admin panel.
I found this forum post (http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/lost-key-master), which says to open up bb_topicmeta and delete the last few lines with meta_key starting wp_” but I can’t find the “bb_topicmeta” file anywhere.
I also tried adding: $bb->new_keymaster = ‘admin’; in the config.php file to no avail.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
