1.0.3 is the best right now. You can do a lot more with it. Also you can switch over to plugins when they are ready with a upgrade script and at that time, I will be ready with a downgrade script too

Put these two lines in bb-config.php (located in bbPress root) to make bbPress use WordPress user tables.
$bb->custom_user_table = 'wp_users';
$bb->custom_user_meta_table = 'wp_usermeta';
And similarly you can make bbPress to use another bbPress user tables.
$bb->custom_user_table = 'bb_users';
$bb->custom_user_meta_table = 'bb_usermeta';
All installations should be in the same database for this to work

I used bbpress quite a long time ago and just want to ask what is the best bbpress version ? Is it trunk, 1.0.3 or plugin plugin (wathing from here http://trac.bbpress.org/browser#branches)
Thanks for answers ! long live bbpres ! 
HELP!! I install bbpress, when I was finished I was given the administration login URL. What do I use for others to login with. I do not even see a place where people can register. I wanted a clean an easy Forum, was this not the one?
A created a Ticket here regarding a fatal error in the plugin but it seems that it’s not visible in the list…
So I would like to post it here again:
After installing the plugin an fatal error occurs, I think that it’s a conflict between bbPress and WP_Query.
The full error is: Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in C:xampphtdocswordpress10wp-includesquery.php on line 27
I use something like this:
$args=array(
‘cat’ => $wpimpress_cat->cat_ID,
‘posts_per_page’ => 1
);
$temp = $wp_query;
$wp_query = null;
$wp_query = new WP_Query($args);
if( have_posts() ) :
while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post();
//loop here!!!
endwhile;
endif;
$wp_query = $temp;
wp_reset_query();
Please check this, and make the plugin to work!
I am not completely familiar with bbPress yet, I understand that the cookie information has to match in each admin section. Where is it that you have to tell a secondary install, to use the primary installs user information.
Is that done in the Admin modules for WordPress integration, or is there a config file where you can point the secondary install look-ups/selects to the primary install?

Just in case anyone comes across a “404 page not found” error after installing this plugin, I was able to trace my issue to a conflict with another plugin — specifically, “Buddypress Members Directory”. I deactivated the plugin, edited the permalink of the page which I set to be forums index, and everything seems peachy-keen now.
Perfecto Zaerl,
Now if you look at the forum “plainzine.com/forum” what is the code that call the site name? You will see 2 of them actually right now.
Forgot to mention previously I’m using “kakumei blue” theme
Again thanks for your help.

The only thing not possible with bbPress is to run multiple forums from a single setup (something like Network or Multisite feature of WordPress).
For all other questions asked above, it can be done.

From what I understand, bbPress does allow you to share a single user table, as well as login cookies, between multiple sites. I’m not sure if you can have one forum shared among several sites, though. I’m basing that on info that’s nearly a year old, though, so it’d be nice to have someone give some up-to-date info on how this might be done.

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…

Hi,
When I put an apostrophe in a topic, bbpress add a backslash before it. See http://www.howgreenwasmycondo.com/forum/topic/are-fuel-cells-viable-2
How can I avoid this?
Thanks very much!
Good to hear, thanks for great work guys!
I have just installed the newest version of bbPress to test out. I’ve installed it as a subdomain under the main domain (WordPress). I want to use bbPress as a stand alone forum…not integrated with WordPress
The default theme does not work and in the appearance panel neither of the two default themes show their screenshots. I’ve checked and rechecked my folder & file permissions which are set to 755. I created a my-templates folder and moved a copy of kakumei to this folder from bb-templates. I’ve checked the permissions on these files, 755, and switched to the new theme/location with no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
Seems like there is a whole lot of older information on this, but i can’t really find anything current. I keep landing on this plugin:
http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpress-latest-discussion-for-wp/
Curious if anyone is using it succesfully still. It hasn’t been updated in quite some time and user feedback is marginal at best and it’s littered with various work arounds and hacks… It’s not really a plug-and-play situation either… wanted a little feedback for a waste a bunch of time.
