Hi Arturo,
I’m afraid that bbPress has many issues with a BuddyPress install (I know you’re not talking about the bbpress forum you can sintall into BuddyPress), to the point where we have had to basically shoot down any support corrolation between the two.
Getting bbPress standalone data into BuddyPress isn’t the work of a simple plugin, even looking at my very brief knowledge of BuddyPress it appears to be quite an ordeal.
With Buddypress having it’s own version of bbPress, and with you already asking on the Buddypress forums, I sincerely doubt you’ll have anyone at this end who thinks that’d be a good use of development time (sorry).
Great news, thanks to everybody involved!
really good news, in the weekend i begins the test!
I’ve a bbPress standalone installation deep integrated with WP and i’ve BuddyPress installed.
We know the new posts and replies in bbPress (not group forums) isn’t in the activity stream of BuddyPress, i thing this is a good plugin to create, anyone interested?
a post in the BP forum from r-a-y give a start, this is the link: http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/bbpress-activity-not-coming-though/#post-59349
Do you load WordPress’ wp-load.php in bbPress?
I’m having the same problem with my custom template; I’m using a recent install of bbPress 1.0.2, and have uploaded my theme to the my-templates directory (I tried it in the bb-templates directory too, as a test) and have checked the directory structure to make sure that’s ok, my style.css header is correct, my permissions seem to be correct (755 on all folders/sub-folders, 644 on all files), there is no mod_security going on with my host… and yet, my theme does not appear in the “appearance” panel of the admin.
Are there any other details I should check? I need to get this sorted or my client will be unhappy.
Thanks –
Sara
Because your server would be having the latest version of PHP.
It is fixed in trunk, you can copy the changes to your install from here – https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset?new=2383%40%2F&old=2381%40%2F
Thanks a lot Gautam 
On second thought,
Can you please tell me why the error arised? I had not edited any php file. All I did was fiddled with database!
Heh – the update finally took place automatically. We added that revision to the header a while back, but the code was not being updated here.
Also, We’re actually running 2442 here – the note I added to the version was the current revision. I should have jumped ahead one when I checked the code in. So, trunk and here are the same thing, despite the meta header.
Thanks Kevin and burlesona,
It looks that it’s a few days-old problem. But I’ve had a longtime headache since I used multisite.
I was happy to hear that the wordpress 3.0 support multisite, expecting the problem might be solved.
Ok. I well understood.
I only hope that the problem be solved as soon as possible.
Thanks again.
Just an update on what’s going on Trac – bbPress 1.0.3 milestone has 3 tickets left (all the tickets have patches and 1 depends on a BackPress ticket), while 1.1 milestone has 4 tickets left (2 have patches, and 2 need patches). There’s also another BackPress ticket that needs to be fixed (which also has a patch). That means that bbPress 1.1 is very near to its release!
How can you help?
- Checkout a copy of bbPress trunk version via SVN and test it.
- Test the patches of the open tickets.
- Contribute patches to the tickets which don’t have one.
What’s new in bbPress 1.1?
- Email subscriptions
- Loginless posting
- Better administration of posts and topics
- Better search and statistics
- Bug fixes. Some critical ones are – #1261 (RSS feeds errors), #1146 (faster recount functions), #1150 (undelete topic error).
- Better tags administration (if #1243 goes in)
Some tickets that missed 1.1 milestone are #960 (better user administration) and #1277 (kakumei cleanup) even though they had patches but could cause errors as they were huge changes and needed more testing. They might get into 1.2 though.

Here my website http://www.digitalheavens.co.uk Ive installed wordpress 3.0 and bbpress. It seems that a member of the website can’t be logged into the website and the forum at the same time? E.G. If a member logs in to see the free products and then goes over to the forum they have to log in again (using the same user name and password) Is this correct or a bug?
This site is running 2441 at the moment and the latest changeset is 2442 at the time of writing this post.
I am thinking of writing a converter. See here
Hey Guys,
I have successfully converted MyBB forum into bbPress. I have got the users, forums, threads and posts tables into bbPress format!
I am not sure if the conversion went 101% correct. I am getting some errors like
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in bb-settings.php on line 186
There are 5 more similar errors but in different files.
Someone please help me get past these errors!
Fantastic, when will it be released? Looking forward to it!!!
Thank you
Andreas
Is it possible to make my bbpress forum at http://www.nissenfundoplication.com into a Private Forum with a monthly membership fee? If so, how would I go about doing this?
Thanks for any response!
Chris
Folks,
please don’t derail this thread with nonsense about another forum software, we’re still trying to sort this one
Hello Burlesona,
I’ve used vanilla (1.x) before but vanilla 2 was new to me. I’ve just checked it out briefly, but while I think using a framework (like Garden or others) to build a custom website, I don’t like the idea of using a framework to build a sort of webapplication (not sure what it should be called) which can be extended itself. (Then you’re actually building a mini-framework onto a framework)
Although the idea of using the MVC-pattern sounds interesting. It might be usefull for the theme stuff, although it isn’t a “go” yet.
Furthermore there is a difference between Garden and my to be fork of backpress. My fork would function as a basic cms. If you only need a simple website, you could go with my fork + the default included plugins. My blog and forum plugins would be just plugins. Garden however is a framework, it can do nothing on its own. It needs a layer (here : vanilla) on top of it.
As for your integration problems, you could try to integrate vanilla and wordpress untill you find something better?
However, the bbpress forum might not be the best place to have discussions about stepping off bbpress or forking it.
Thanks for the tip,
Wim Tibackx
You’re not an idiot mate, but this is where bbPress starts to struggle a bit – especially with no documentation.
You want to make a call to the Database directly via SQL (SQLECT * FROM blah blah blah), but thre is no quick fix. You can use the $bbdb class to connect to the database.
If your’e still struggling, do a hunt for $bbdb with here on google. Remember that search on this site su… has many inbuilt features that are not bugs
