until it’s fixed, use the new bbPress login widget.
Tickets @1457 & 1460 are closed, implying the /wp-admin forwarding to /login issue is fixed, but it’s not for me on my test install running bbpress 2859 on WP 3.1 rc3. There are 39 other plugins installed, but none of the other plugins are active and I’m using the Twenty for bbpress theme. Any advice?
I was also concerned about this when I installed BBPress (in late November of last year) but have found it is more alive than this site tends to indicate. Activity is hopping on the plugin thread, and I’m really looking forward to it being finished!

- There would be a 1.1 version for bbPress standalone, which should be out soon.
- 1.2 would be the plugin.
- You would be able to migrate from standalone to the plugin.
- You’d be able to run your wp blog in forum-only mode.
Hope that clears everything.

I would suggest that you hire a developer because that script is currently meant to be only run by a person who at least knows the basics of coding, bbPress/WordPress etc.

bbPress as a plugin is still being developed. bbPress as a standalone still exists.

I sort of feel like I’m listening in on a private conversation when I ‘skim’ that thread. (I couldn’t read it because it’d take me 2 hours and I still wouldn’t understand it).
In resumé, does it mean that bbPress is going to become a plugin for WordPress?
If so : I don’t use WordPress (don’t have a blog), what will this mean for a current bbPress installation?

You will see old outdated plugins but the forum is still in the works. Not sure how much of the plugins will be supported in the next version but you can follow the current progress here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-plugin-updates

I’ve spent the best part of today, installing bbPress and trying to understand, the often arcane, systems (for a non programmer).
As I’ve worked through the process, I have frequently noticed that forum posts and files dates are very old. I don’t want to invest my time and energy into in a dead-end solution. The plug-in paradigm is dangerous, because of fragmentation and the immense complexity that it can create (updates are riddled with pitfalls).
But … the BIG question I have at this point, is, whether or not bbPress is still being developed? I have noticed that some of the installed files are almost 2 years old.

Hi everyone. Im new to the forums here but thought I would show off my most recent use of WP + BBP.
The site is a World of Warcraft guild website and was originaly powered by IPB however as traffic and rankings started to increase I thought it required a lick of paint and a general update. The site has been manualy converted from IPB 2.2 (if i remember correctly) and still has some bugs which I am intending to iron out this week. Take a look below and let me know what you think, any suggestions also welcome

I am also planning to make the forum display a little bolder but have not decided exactly what to do yet, im sure il update here if any changes are made as and when.
Ripoko~
I am taken back to the main forum page as well, when I use this plugin. The template/default image, works etc., but I cannot set an image for the avatar.
I’m just setting up BBPress, as a first ever bulletin board and am beginning to think that this software is waaaayyy to complex/geeky. No Avatars on a web-forum software???

WordPress loader file (wp-load.php) doesn’t exist in the path specified!

I imagine it should, yes. Did you use the same database info as your WordPress install, as I explained in Step 1?
At which point during the install are you getting an error?

I can’t delete the existing installation, because it’s on a live, active website with 3k+ users. So I installed it in a new directory and used a different prefix. (bb1_) It should still work with that, no?
