I’m having a similar issue. When I log in via WordPress first, then I go to bbPress, it tells me that I’m logged in, and the Admin link is visible. But when I click the admin link, it just returns to the same page, and doesn’t go to the dashboard.
To get around it, I log out of BOTH WordPress and bbpress, then go back into bbpress and log in as Admin. When done in this order, I’m able to click the “Admin” link and access the dashboard.
By the way, I’m running Linux/4GH, PHP 5.x, MySQL on godaddy.com. I have the latest versions of WordPress (3.1) and bbPress(1.0.3) installed.

Thanks – new here – and to forums.

I don’t think there is a mail service running on the server, though I’m sure I can add one. I just need to know what to ask for.

That looks really modern. But slightly Windows-like.
I think the structure can be improved, because I don´t easily understand what is questions and not. But keep the effects and stuff.
After a second look, I would remove the “Latest Discussed Questions” because it just splits up the content you know. It clutters what is organized.
The font and placement for Question Categories should be more incorporated into the tables, because it´s a bit hard to spot. Make it really pop.
And I don´t understand “Main Theme”… what is that about? Perhaps that should say categories, or “Type of question?”.

Thats why Akismet sucks for BBpress. And thank you for documenting this once again. Some people in here need to hear this.
Stop using it. Simple as that. It´s not made for a forum. It´s made for blogs.

No, bbPress doesn’t have a module/widget system.

Am I missing something or bbpress does not have any block system? Im so used to joomla or other cms where blocks are used to place anything anywhere. I hope its available.
Hello there, after releasing my sites latest version, v.3, i included a questions and answers section, and i searched around the net for the best free, stable, and flexible open source script to start customizing it, i tried alot, and finally did it with BbPress,
actually it’s highly customized and you should sign up if you want to see all of it’s features, please leave your feedback.

Hey Mike,
Welcome! I’m not a dev here, but currently there is an effort to rewrite bbpress as a wordpress plugin. This process is making many plugins for bbpress obsolete. There is some discussion about making it possible to use bbpress plugins with the new bbpress-plugin in WP, but that feature is not guaranteed.
Despite the effort towards bbpress-plugin, there likely will remain a community around bbpress standalone which will continue to use the current plugins. You are welcome to continue writing plugins for the standalone version. I am not sure, however, how you should go about submitting that since I am not a dev. Perhaps jumping on the bbpress IRC channel you can find someone.
As a sidenote, from what I understand, most people use a combination of Akismet and a human test to prevent spam. For those who desire a CAPTCHA, there is already a reCAPTCHA plugin available.
Best of luck!

I want to add support for bbPress to SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam plugin.
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/
I cannot find the needed do_action hooks.
/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress
I started looking in these templates, they do not have the action hooks that would let me add a CAPTCHA:
form-topic.php
form-anonymous.php

I’ve just installed bbPress and integrated with WordPress. All was well until I renamed the file folder to “forums” from “bbPress”. Everything is working perfectly except I cannot edit user profiles! They can register and all else seems to work on the site and the Admin, just no editing the user profile pages (either from the forum or from admin).
When I attempt to edit user profile it switched to my WordPress and gives me a “Error 404: Page Not Found”.
Here is a sample URL: “http://jernigan.co/forums/profile/admin”

thanks a heap….this finally got me started…
I am having exactly the same problem.
I can go one step farther: when I ask bbpress to send me my Key Master account’s password, it tells me that the user doesn’t exist!

Hi,
I’ve been searching for some hours now but I guess I don’t find the answer because it must be an easy answer
I’ve successfully integrated BP 1.03 in my WO 3.1 and everything works fine so far.
But the forum looks like it’s another site, I mean it’s basicaly due to the template.
My wish is to have my BBPRESS installed into a WP Page (such as simple:press plugin for example) or just like it is on this very bbpress.org website !
Any clue about how to do it ?
Thanks for your help
