Could someone take the time to look at this bug: https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1476
Hello,
Is there anyway that i add a link to my navigation bar with bbPress that’s opening in the same page like wordpress with sidebars and all other things around.
Example link:

Hey,
I’m a newcomer here, but I’ve spent more than a few hours reading over the forums to get a feel for the community and understand the entire bbPress-plugin saga. I really appreciate all of the work that JJJ is putting into this and I’m excited about the future of this. I know there is some skepticism in the community, but just from looking over the amount of work JJJ has put into this, I think bbPress-plugin has a bright future.
I am willing to help out and hopefully will have time soon to jump on IRC and start hacking.

WP 3.0 / BBpress “Bechet” version 1.0.2
Inside /wp-includes/load.php I found this code:
// If already slashed, strip.
if ( get_magic_quotes_gpc() ) {
$_GET = stripslashes_deep( $_GET );
$_POST = stripslashes_deep( $_POST );
$_COOKIE = stripslashes_deep( $_COOKIE );
}
So I made a BBpress plugin that (so far) works for me.
/bbpress/my-plugins/stripslashes.php
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Strip Slashes
Plugin URI: http://www.uxtremist.com/
Description: Strips slashes from topics, tags and posts. Sort of.
Author: Adam Braimbridge <adam@uxtremist.com>
Version: 0.1
Author URI: http://www.uxtremist.com/
*/
// Make sure WordPress has been included
if (function_exists('wp_head')) {
$_GET = stripslashes_deep( $_GET );
$_POST = stripslashes_deep( $_POST );
$_COOKIE = stripslashes_deep( $_COOKIE );
}
?>
I would like to know how to start a custom bbPress loop to display the recent 5 posts of a certain forum (say Forum Test 1).
In WordPress I create custom loops like this:
`<?php $custom_posts = new WP_Query(); ?>
<?php $custom_posts->query(‘post_type=bbp_topic&posts_per_page=5’); ?>
<?php while ($custom_posts->have_posts()) : $custom_posts->the_post(); ?>
<div class=”block-2 border-top”>
<h2><a href=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>” title=”<?php printf( esc_attr__( ‘Permalink to %s’, ‘twentyten’ ), the_title_attribute( ‘echo=0’ ) ); ?>” rel=”bookmark”><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<p><?php comments_number(‘0 Replies’,’1 Reply’,’% Replies’); ?>.</p>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>`
How to do what I mentioned above in bbPress 1.1?
I’m trying to make the access to the bbPress password protected. Is there a way to keep the forum from showing unless a user is logged in? I have a protected page that redirects to bbPress, but the actual URL to bbPress can be accessed directly.
I’m not a PHP programmer so any info would be much appreciated!
Hey! I’ve now fixed my problem 
The system (Debian 6) was missing or had an old version of php5-gd installed. apt-get install php5-gd and restarting the apache2 server fixed the problem of the blank pages.
Also these code changes by _ck_ helped to improve Avatar Upload:
Delete avatar function: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/5/#post-1093
Make identicon function work: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/5/#post-1096
What version of bbPress are u running? This theme isn’t tested on any version early than version 1.
Also, if you try to register with the email address tt@kk, it’ll tell you that the email address is invalid. Or if you’re using an email that already exist in your database then that wont work either…
I tested everything in my site, and everything seems to be just fine.
you can test it out yourself on my site if you want…

@Willabee: thank’u very much (and sorry for my poor english)
for n° 2 (i can try to best explain): if i have a theme in my blog (no twentyten) how i can use also for plugin? is there a guide for customize? atm i can use only bbPress (Twenty Ten)
@ Darkwolf.it
1. A category can’t hold topics, its meant to only be a container of sub-fora.
2. Don’t really know what you mean..
3. Making a custom theme for a plugin, seems like a long shot. Especially since it won’t intergrate into your site and just takes it over.
4. It’s in the settings (Settings > Forums).
5. None yet, but since the topics are just custom posts, you could write up a script.
6. As said many times before, it has a high priority, but don’t expect it to be done tommorow.
@ Kasparas
This topic is about all the info you’ll get. The plugin will be the same as the standard bbPress in the end.
@ ALL
I know all of you have been waiting for a good forum plugin for wordpress for a while, but don’t ask radical script changes or widgets in this stage. Just let them build a solid script and the custom stuff will come later.
Hi
I’ve just installed bbpress on a side with wordpress, and succeded!
It was a bit complicated, and i went through installation procedure twice.
I used this as a guide:
http://wordpress.tv/2009/01/23/integrating-a-bbpress-forum-with-your-self-installed-wordpress/
During the first (unsuccessfull) installation I installed bbpress in parallel to wordpress, ex:
…/wordpress
…/bbpress
I experienced some of the same symptoms as mentioned above
During the second installation (after dropping the bb_* tables using phpAdmin) i installed exactly like in the video, ie
…/wordpress/forums
And surprise!!! It works perfectly!
Im not in a position where I can use more time exploring why this and not the other works, but someone might have an explanation.
All the best and good luck

Is it possible to use bbp_topic_content/bbp_reply_content as filter hooks? i.e.
add_filter('bbp_topic_content', 'some_function', 5);

Some question:
1) What is the difference between “forum” and “category”? 
2) How i can use a wp theme for plugin?
3) Why don’t use a theme for plugin not related with wordpress (or simple try to use directly wp theme without customization)?
4) How i can permit guest to post?
5) Is there any way to “promote” a topic in home page (in blog)?
6) Any eta to convert from bbpress standalone?
Thanks in advance, DarkWolf
Sweet. That’s wonderful to hear.
@Ryan – That’s what I was hoping to hear
@tyskkvinna – It will rely on new individual template files to handle the bbPress specific bits, but otherwise it’s easily compatible with any theme available today.
Tanks JJJ for the clarity. Since then I’ve simplified it for myself. I’m currently running it as a BuddyPress child with the necessary files copied and pasted in. It all works quite nicely together.
Sorry, just for clarity- does that mean that BBPress (plugin) will have a totally separate theme from the main WordPress install?
I’m presently running a Buddypress + Multisite install and I know my theme situation is more complicated than most, but I’d like to be able to carry over the Buddypress things (like the admin bar). Is this something that will be too sticky?
