@willabee I also think that it is important to keep this plugin as simple as possible. But the profiles are already included in the backend of WP, to bring this to the frontend would be important to keep the look and feel of the site.
@Dudd This would be an option indeed. But since the topic posts aren’t included in the author archives, it still wouldn’t be possible for users to find their posts back..
I think this is bug on bbpress trunk 2651 … how can i fix it ?

@joris: you can use specific plugin like mingle
Hi,
I hope someone can help me here, I’ve tried Googling and searching this forum but haven’t been successful in finding an answer.
WordPress 3.01 using TwentyTen theme
bbPress 1.02 using modified Kakumei theme.
Single database with additional chars added to table names (e.g. wp_obscure_)
I integrated WordPress and bbPress by following this tutorial by Ashfame.
I can access the bbPress Dashboard but I cannot make any changes to the Settings or (more importantly) add new Forums or sub forums – I am redirected to the WP dashboard when I press the “Add Forum” button (or similar submit elsewhere).
Naturally, I can’t be going into the database each time a new forum is required.
Best Regards, Karl
I prefer they don’t add profiles to this plugin, that’s not neccesairy for a forum plugin. They should keep this as simple as possible.
I am testing the plugin and really like the simplicity of it. This could be an ‘community’ alternative to Buddypress, because I found Buddypress too heavy for high traffic sites.But what I really like from Buddypress are the public profiles and front end account / admin options.
Are there any plans to make public profiles in this new plugin, instead of using the default WP admin area? Something like BBpress has right now for example..
@Driz: Which folder? What should the permissions be set at ?
Thank you.
@DeysonOrtiz
I had the same issue, check your permissions! Fixed it for me.
@rich-pedley
Didn’t realize that the movement of theme files was no longer necessary.
Update:
Site #1
I see that the forum theme files are present in the plugin directory. The site is using the bbp-twentyten them on that site.
Site #2
Copied files to the child theme for buddypress to work properly. Modified as described above so that the theme understood the css properly.
PS. Why is my previous post about css marked as spam? I can remove the link to the site but otherwise, thought the information was helpful.
@ Rich: All the other plug-ins show up fine.
@ CitizenKieth: I am using cyberduck for my uploads, I never had a problem like this before.
I have also tried to install bbpress on 3 other wordpress websites of mine and it does not show either, they are all on the same hosting company, and they all have the latest wordpress.
Hi,
When i edit the title of a topic, it do not work … if i change the body of the post it take effect but not for the title(i can edit the post title but after saving it do not execute … )
Note that i use bbpress trunk [Version 1.1-alpha-2539] the same what is running here on bbpress.org
Did a little install on a “new” site. WP 3.0.1, BP 1.2.6, child theme with nothing but the style sheet pointing to the default so I could add the styles from the bbpress. Copied the bbpress template files into the child theme.
Now, things worked except they looked awful. Looking at the template code for all the files that started with page (page-bbp_front.php, page-bbp_topics.php, and page-bbp_form.php)
<div id="container">
<div id="content" role="main">
This causes a problem because container is also used by bp-default, therefore any child theme would fail to look good.
Changed html code to:
<div id="bbp-forum-container">
<div id="bbp-forum-content" role="main">
Then added css styles for the new ids within the styles.css for the child theme:
Looks OK. But needs work:

Hope this helps.
Thanks Rich, I appreciate it. Hope to see that beta soon and of course I will join the testing. I’m planning on using bbpress live during the beta phase.
@Carmellon, erm you do know that is what this thread is about? JJJ has said he was hoping for a beta release by the end of the year (If I recall correctly).
But you can join in the testing by using the download link on this page:

Any word yet on when we are going to see some type of integration or plugin?? I’m dying to find out. Also, Is there any easy way to integrate bbpress into my current wordpress site without having to learn bbpress code to make it look seamless? I actually love learning but don’t have the time right now, 5 sites in 6 months…
@DeysonOrtiz: Are you uploading the files in binary mode?
Finally, not in the readme, copy the bbp-twentyten to your themes directory.
This is not necessary, and you should not do it. One of the latest changes specifically addressed the earlier issue that we were having, and if the theme does not work correctly from within the plugin please, please, let us know.
@Deyson, I assume other plugins show up correctly etc?
Just kidding, its a lot easier then I thought. Anyways, a couple features I’m wondering if are there and I’m just missing:
1. Permissions (Choosing what level of users can start new topics, reply to certain topics, etc.)
2. Making forums display as list under parent forum (very common in most forums)
how do I make a link to the forums sections though?
The readme.txt has the short and simple instructions for installing the plugin.
1. Place ‘bbpress’ folder in your plugins directory.
2. Activate bbPress.
3. Visit your Forums settings and configure your forums.
4. Activate a bbPress compatible theme
Finally, not in the readme, copy the bbp-twentyten to your themes directory.
Hey, this looks great. I just installed a new wordpress site. And would really like integrated forums. Could someone give me a more step by step guide to getting this working. I have yet to install bbpress. Thanks!
I’m having the same issue described above, after following an identical installation. Clearing my cache does not resolve the problem.
Does the current release of BBPress actually integrate with the current release of WordPress?

Rich, The site is hosted.
LPH, I do not see the plugin in the plugin admin panel.
I can not see a template for bbpress, because it can not be activated since I can not see it.
I moved the theme bbp-twentyten to the wp-content/themes and it tells me the themes is broken or missing parts.
I did three different way, I loaded the plugin folder to plugins and renamed that folder on the FTP, I renamed it my finder and dropped it in the FTP and I just dragged the content folder ‘plugins’ into a blank folder named ‘bbpress’ neither way worked.
Thank you.
