What are the directory paths where you installed WordPress and bbPress, the full path, or at least the relationship between the two.
Also, if you look, is the install.php file in the bb-admin directory? Maybe all the files were not transferred.
The version will be in the admin section, on the bottom of every page.

Of course, without being able to log in, you aren’t going to be able to see that. If you haven’t removed it, the version is also showed in the head section of each forum page. It might look like this:
<meta name="generator" content="bbPress 1.0.2" />
I want to give you a password that will work with your version, so I need to know what version you are using.
Did you set a valid email address when you installed bbPress? You can check here:
http://www.example.com/bbpress/bb-admin/options-general.php
Make sure there is an email address set there under “E-mail address”.
If that is already set and it still does not work, please post your forum URL.
If your issue is persistent hpguru, you should probably start a new topic. I know you were just adding to the voices who are having similar problems, and not even really looking for help, but if you do need help, please start a new topic.

Yes, I was receiving emails when I was using WordPress from the same server. So it’s not the problem with the server side.
I am using latest version of bbpress (bbPress 1.0.2) I am using English language. I have not integrated WordPress with this bbPress.
So what is the problem With email sending?
not on this ‘live’ site… (my initial BBPress theme).. I actually duplicated the header code (using wp_list_pages etc…)
On my local server I use get_header() and I’m still having the issue.

Hello again everybody,
I apologize if I posted something against the rules? My last post was closed?
Well it was about getting support installing bbpress. I have done web design in the past but never integrated a forum. I would really like to add a bbpress forum to my site.
my problem is in the database configuration settings. I uploaded to my server fine but when asked for my database configuration settings I keep getting a message saying the info I put is incorrect. I says
“”There was a problem connecting to the database you specified.
Please check the settings, then try again.”
This is the information I have to work with.
» MySQL Database
a7609595_teammix
» MySQL User
a7609595_jasonb
» MySQL Host
mysql8.000webhost.com
Any help would be great. Thank you everybody.
Also, I heard from somebody that I have to create a table on my database for this to work? I did not see that in the bbpress directions, is this correct?
If you have access to the database, you can insert a password hash from a known password, then log in with your username and that password you just inserted. Do you have something like phpMyAdmin to access the database directly?
Also, what version of bbPress are you using, and are you using any plugins that affect the password, cookie or integration settings?
I would stop using the Mass Delete Users plugin. I suspect it’s doing something that’s incompatible with 1.0 and something is going on with the users it deletes and the ones that are left behind. I would stop using that then do a recount in the admin. I’m not sure if recounting fixing user-related things that might have gotten borked.
I don’t think Allow Images, either BBcode plugin, BBvideo or Social It would cause any problem like this. Unless the problem occurs on threads with (or without) images or threads with (or without) video.) The Social IT appears to be on every post.
I’m not sure about Human Test for 1.0 – I don’t think I’ve ever tried it. I do have it working with a 1.0RC, I forget which version though. All you can do is try it. If it activates without error, that’s good. If you try to register and it prevents incorrect answers and allows correct answers, and the registration goes through, then it works.
I don’t think disabling Mass Delete is going to make everything better right away. I have a feeling that it’s doing something to the user data in the database, and that will remain there even after you deactivate the plugin.
The other possibility is something going on with the host. But if all the other software is running fine there, that’s probably not a problem.
chrishajer, I use the following plugins:
Allow Images
BBcode Buttons Toolbar
BBcode Lite
BBvideo
Mass Delete Users
Social It
These are vital for me though, I got many users depending on these as core functions already. This problem did interestingly enough, occur after I had installed Mass Delete Users. Not imediatly though.
Deleting users works, but maybe it does something else that I can not see – that fucks up something else?
Do human test work for 1.02?
What if an incompatible plugin is creating problems for you? The problems you’re having are not normal. I noticed that the mass delete users plugin is good up to 0.9 only, but you posted there that it works with 1.0.2.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/mass-delete-users/
How about preventing the spambot registrations with the Human Test plugin instead, and not trying to mass moderate users? Maybe it’s deleting some references to the users, but not all? Or there are stranded posts or something, and that throws off the numbering or something?
hpguru, what plugins are you using?
Marius-, what other plugins are you using?
It doesn’t happen by default in an installation with very few plugins running, so it might be a problem with a plugin, or could be a problem with the server. Software sometimes acts weird when a partition or MySQL runs out of space or memory.
I remember that i have this problem too on my bbPress 1.0.2 but no always.
chrishajer, the strange thing is it doesn’t always happen. But sometimes the last poster won’t be seen until much much later. I’ve crosschecked this with several users. I don’t know what the criteria is for this bug to occur.
In the thread “Post bilde av deg selv” – today I had to redelete all deleted posts, which was about 20 posts. These were duplicates of the previously deleted posts. Why did this only happen in one topic?
I’ve deleted alot of spambots lately, but they’ve done no harm at all, other than registering.
I’ve also installed the plugin Mass Delete Users, but these bugs doesn’t seem to have anything to do with that, and they did not start to occur imediatly after installing the plugin either.
It’s gonna be hard to tell you the next time this bug happens, maybe I can add you to msn and notifiy you the next time? As you see in my original post in this thread, thats the topic it happened to last time.
I was able to create an account, log in and make a new topic:
http://www.michaeljackson.no/forum/topic.php?id=130
I was able to add a reply to this topic as well:
http://www.michaeljackson.no/forum/topic.php?id=6&page=8&replies=220#post-3577
Someone posted soon after me, but for about 10 seconds I was listed as the last poster.
So, it seems to be working well for me. Is it not working for everyone?
A decision was made to mark posts as deleted rather than delete them completely. Just a design decision. I prefer it this way; others want them gone forever.
First determine if you can send email from that server. Can you? Have you ever received mail from the server?
Also, what type of server, and what version of bbPress did you install, and are you integrated with WordPress? Using English or another language? All of these things can affect how mail is sent from your server.
You should open a ticket at trac.bbpress.org and voice your concerns there.
Yes, that’s been noted before. Luckily, it’s not important, it’s just wrong. I thought it was reported at trac, but I can’t find it right now: https://trac.bbpress.org/
If it’s happening at your forum, try a recount in the admin.
I did talk with sambauers in June, and the problem existed in 0.9. bbpress.org is using 1.0 now, so I’m not sure if it’s the same problem or a different one.
The divs appear to be nested improperly. There is one validation error regarding a closing div being in the wrong spot; maybe that’s the problem.

If you linearize the page with the web developer toolbar in FireFox, the links are accessible – see here:

And how come deleted posts aren’t really deleted? But instead just hidden?
I’m really pissed off right now. Is there any reason BBpress is starting to ruin everything for me all of the sudden?
Now posts I’ve deleted becomes undeleted again, and then duplicated.
I have just started with bbpress and I think there is some problem with it.
It is said that the user Confirmation mail will receive in Minutes but it hasn’t received yet. What should I do now?
Orelse please tel me the way to avoid ’email confirmation’ in user registration.
