Thanks for your suggestion. However I did everything like you said and now I can’t log back into admin of bbpress. It appears that that process didn’t work! Now I’ve created a problem. I’ll start looking through the forums for an answer to this. Ugh.
Also looking for a solution to this. Have wp & bb integrated beautifully, but the current forum shows up erroneously in my primary nav menu.
Example; a level 2 forum page, highlights the 2nd wp site page in the primary nav menu.
This is basically is my last snafu before publishing with bbpress active! I’m so excited!
Any solutions to this? I’m no .htaccess wizard, and regex freaks me out even more haha.
4. log into your bbPress dashboard. Click on options. Look for bbPress address (URL) and change the address. Click save page. You WILL get an error. Leave the page open. Sign into your FTP and rename the folder to forum. Go back to the page and click refresh. If you did it right it will ask you to login again.
Your integration settings need to be updated.
I found in bbPress reply list replies without any topic. Delete them from database. Now dashboard index 4023 and posts.php 4068.
Thanks!
Wow, I never paid attention to the “blog” section. Same discussion that’s going on here.
I think just pulling one of the top requests out of a hat and just start working instead of the constant babble. I think the end result will be the users will be happy even if they didn’t vote on it. I really wish I can help aside from just requesting stuff. I don’t know PHP just have ideas.
That’s 1600 EST right or am I doing it wrong?
Ah hmm, I just checked a test install for 1.0.2, and it has a similar issue.
On the Dashboard, it says “252 posts” and “71 topics”.
But on the Posts page it says there are 249 posts, and on the Topics page it says there are 68 topics.
It sounds like a bug… but I don’t see a report here?
https://trac.bbpress.org/report/1
Can anyone else confirm this is an issue for you on bbPress 1.0.2 as well? If so, please post here and then we can file a trac report!

Hi Gerikg,
Matt unfortunately missed the IRC Meetup – look here in the bbPress blog:
https://bbpress.org/blog/2009/12/my-bad/
This Wednesday will be the next meeting … at 21:00

I hate to bring up this post again but what happened to “the next meetup on IRC will be Wednesday 16 December 2100 GMT irc.freenode.net #bbpress” did that happen?
@ChuckMcB -Hmm, since you can access the admin link while signed into bbPress, it’s probably not a case where you lost your admin access:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/
It sounds like you may be onto something with the www issue you mentioned… one cookie is setting itself on www, while the other one is not.
My mom is on facebook, so does my 60yrs old auth and uncle… and they are all living on the island of Borneo (googling it would probably show up among ‘the remaining lost world on earth’). So I got 3 ppl for my hard stats 
I’m using WPMU+Buddypress and integrated with bbpress — since there are facebookconnect plugins for WPMU, and now facebook plugin specific for WPMU+BP, my installation of bbpress on WPMU+BP becomes the odd one. While BP is now with its own forum system, I have more reasons to abandon bbpress; yet I do hope facebook-enabled bbpress would make me continue to use this.
Hi, i have very good bbPress forum. I like bbPress. I am use a bbPress 1.0.2 but i may found 1 new bug.
I go to my bbPress dashboard and see posts count, thats say: 4024 posts.
Then i go to bb-admin/posts.php and i see 1 – 20 / 4,121. This mean i have 4121 posts on my forum.
I try recounting without any help to this problem.
My plugins now:
Akismet
Human Test For bbPress
Topics Per Page
bbSmilies (maybe smilies from WordPress plugin, i change it name, when i modified smilies codes)
Thanks for all the help guys. The sys admins pushed out a new php.ini file that had magic quotes turned on. This broke bbpress terribly.
> have you had any issue with your 3 forums’ bbPress registration emails hitting folks’ spam folks?
Not really. Occasionally someone will email me and tell me they never received their password reset email, but that’s easily handled manually. The 3 forums are small, so management is not a problem. If they were larger with more users, I’d be looking for better ways of automating the management of them, but right now they are just fine. I have _ck_’s human test installed on all 3, and don’t use akismet. Occasionally I get a spam post, but it’s just a minor nuisance. At least I don’t have any trouble with false positives with Akismet. Again, if they were larger volume, I’d be looking for other ways of managing the forums.
It’s really nice to see some creative (yet minimal) themes for bbPress.
This is great!
Around 3 weeks of worry free activity. There haven’t been any software upgrades to bbPress, and no new plugins/themes. I am using the latest stable release. The environment is our own internal setup. No changes there as well.
Ohh dear, seems I gushed too soon.
While the above does log me into bbpress once I’m logged into WP, when I click on the “Admin” link I get redirected back to the main form page. Only when I log out of bbpress and log back in again does the “Admin” link take me to the admin page.
I’m away to try dropping my ‘www’s
I had problems with spammers and troublemakers both before and after we created that plugin… but both got a lot better after I installed this plugin allowing users to report problems with single click:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/report-post/
More recently, I installed Nightgunner5’s fantastic Moderation Suite:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpress-moderation-suite/
This allowed me to create a Moderator team of people I trusted, who can spam and delete posts… the plugin logs every moderation action too, so I can always reverse something if a volunteer Moderator makes a decision I disagree with.
GrassrootsPA – I used to have the same issue, until ck built this plugin which lets users select their own passwords:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/instant-password/
Since users now pick their own passwords, it doesn’t matter as much if that email makes it through or not…
@ chrishajer, just curious, have you had any issue with your 3 forums’ bbPress registration emails hitting folks’ spam folks? Had this issue with Yahoo, gmail, hotmail and other emails accounts. (It’s still not 100% resolved with all email accounts)
I must confess, this was initially a bit of a headache for this server newbie. (People complain that the registration doesn’t work, others don’t say anything and give up on the site at that point thinking the software doesn’t work) This really isn’t a problem with bbPress, but it is a tough issue to figure out when you are just learning the LAMP ropes. Thank goodness for knowledgeable server buddies!
Not sure if this explains anything, but this is one of the reasons (a minor one) why this LAMP newbie like the idea of allowing others ways to login like FB Connect…(it eliminates that potentially-troublesome email verification step and allows them to jump right in).
BTW, I would be ecstatic is FB Connect emerged as a plugin first and the next bbPress release focused on other things like integration, some cool new features, etc. You are a good salesman. 
No apologies necessary.
I too am using various versions of bbPress (I think 1.0-alpha 2, 1.0.2 and 0.9.0.4) without problem. It works just great for me. So, thanks once again and sincerely, Happy Holidays to you.
Best of luck with your future projects Sam. I am still enjoying your bbPress 1.0.2 release.
Update: I no longer have this issue, since rebuilding the bbpress installation. Before, something was screwy, between outdated documentation, and just learning bbp.
Hurrah!
No problem chris I have to say that I’m sorry for not being around more. I didn’t intend to do the “hot potato” thing.
I’m also sorry for re-opening this topic, but for previously stated reasons I felt it was necessary to respond.
Thanks for the info Sam. Happy Holidays to you.
