@Ben L. Thank you! It was “User Roles Table for bbPress” it was installed, activated but not “on”. Once I turned it “on” it worked.
Sorry.
I installed bbpress in a sub-domain, but some days ago I had installed an other bbpress in a main root of the domain. So I edited the wrong folder!
And now I have uploaded the folder called “my-templates” (with the theme) in the sub-domain and it works.
Thanks.

That error can only be caused by plugins. What plugins are you running?
If you can, search for WP_Users::update_meta in their source code.
Hi!
I have some problems with the themes.
I edited a theme and i uploaded it in a directory called “bb-templates”.
When I go in “appereance” (into admin panel), i dont’ see the theme.
When I delete the themes pre-installed, they yet are in “appereance” and they work.
So, how can I install a new theme in bbpress?
bbPress Attachments is only compatible up to version 0.9 of bbPress.
Hi all,
Just started playing around with my first ever install of BBPress. Have added the BB-attachments plugin and it all works perfectly except for the icons which do not want to display for some reason.
They are all uploaded to the correct location (http://www.domain.net/forum/my-plugins/bb-attachments/icons/) but they just won’t display on screen. Any ideas?
Cheers
Mike
PS – forum is at http://www.flykiwi.net/forum/ if you want to have a look
What version of bbPress are you using?
I’m sorry, but this is the bbPress support forum, not the MyBB support forum. You’ll want to post this at http://community.mybboard.net/forum-81.html
It might have something to do with the path and forward or backslashes, since it is Windows.
Did you try the debug stuff listed at ashfame’s page? specifically ?bb_attachments_debug to find the path?
Here is something recent about problems with the path and plugins on Windows servers:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/error-activation-plugin#post-62287
and the next post for the resolution.
According to my set up the folder has to be one level above the bbpress folder. You have it on the same level as the bbpress folder.
I am looking for any help possible because this plugin isn’t wanting to play nice at all.
I have already checked this referenced post – http://blog.ashfame.com/2009/10/fix-bb-attachments-plugin-of-bbpress/ – which helped straightening out the DB problem of the bb-attachment table not being created.
However while the file is being entered in the DB table nothing is showing up in the bb-attachment folder (http://screencast.com/t/NzYzNzIy)
All I am getting it the ‘Failed’ notice on first view (http://screencast.com/t/MGNkOWJm)
Then when you refresh the page even that is gone (http://screencast.com/t/ZDNiZjdk)
It might be important to note that this is is being hosted on a WinServer (no smart ass remarked needed)
If anyone has any suggestions on what to try I would greatly appreciate the assistance.
thindery is no longer using bbpress.
Casemon, it depends how you integrated the theme. Are you using BBpress’ header.php or WordPress’ header.php?
>Wordpress became popular, and maintains its popularity, because it provides features users want.
I agree. As plugins, in most cases.
And for the record, I don’t want bbPress to stick with 0.9. I think some people want that because 0.9:
- has more plugins that work with it
- uses less resources
I just want bbPress to live up to the promises it makes:
https://bbpress.org/about/features/
https://bbpress.org/about/
https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/
That’s all.
Thanks for the additional information.
If you’re using Windows locally, there was an old bug that was resolved, but I think there might be a new one. It had something to do with the slashes being forward or backward, and subdirectories.

Maybe this one is more current:
https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1019
OT: Why would you use a testing environment that is different from where you are going to host? It introduces all sorts of other variables that you end up trying to fix that ultimately don’t matter on the final host. Whenever possible, the testing environment should be identical to the final host environment.
But, I think the issue you are having is due to it being on Windows. I’ve seen it reported a couple times, I just can’t find the exact ticket I am recalling.
I have WordPress 2.9 and bbPress 1.0.2
Everything works well on the host’s server. It’s in localhost that the activation of the extensions is impossible.
I have determined that this worked if I put the file of the plugin(ie unread-posts.php) directly in the “my-plugins” directory.
If I put unread-posts.php in the “unread-posts” directory, this does not work.
/forum/my-plugins/unread-posts.php work fine
/forum/my-plugins/unread-posts/unread-posts.php does not work.
That mean plugin is broken or don’t work with your bbPress version.
No, i have installed WordPress then bbpress in a directory /forum. When I want to active a plugin of bbpress i have this message.
>WordPress didn’t become great by cramming a bunch of features in.
WordPress became popular, and maintains its popularity, because it provides features users want. If you want Vanilla, go download Vanilla. When people get BBpress they expect comparable functionality to WordPress. Not some stripped down prototype of a forum framework.
This community is hijacked by people who want BBpress forever to be 0.9. It is extremely frustrating to see people continually rail against increasing the base featureset of BBpress. Especially when _ck_ abandoning plugins that were crucial to the very existence of the BBpress community show the need for these features to be officially maintained and not exist on the emotional whims of a single person.
Having this same issue. Have integrated BBpress into WP, or the other way around depending on your definition I guess.
One of the near final remaining issues is this current_page issue. The forum front page correctly shows the current page in the nav menu (forum is item 5 in the nav menu), but any forum links beyond the forum front page, the 2nd page in the nav menu becomes active (# 2 in the nav menu is the site blog).
I guess I need to update something somewhere, but really am at a loss as to what & where.
If you can read this, and can help, please follow up as it seems there is no info on the topic otherwise!
Can you share directions for other people? 
Hey guys,
I just realized my theme wasn’t using the topic_page_links icon link feature and inserted it in the correct spots in the front and front page files.
The numbers are showing up and work correctly but the little topic icon doesn’t want to show. I’m running bbPress 1.02. Any advice?
