you could be right; its a default bbpress core- — but I’ll look at the plugins..
Not sure where to put this, but I registered for a bbpress.org account a while ago and haven’t logged in for a few months. Upon sending the reset password link in my inbox, bbpress.org told me “You are not allowed to change your password.”
Is this a glitch?
There is no config option. What did you try and what happened when you did it? How was that different from what you expected? Is it possible the code is just not styled any differently in your theme?
You did read this right?

Now everything is solved. It was the problem with the email I used in the registration. I tried registering with another email and it is now working perfectly.
Thanks a lot for your support, chrishajer
Hope you’ve a cool time here on bbPress Support Forums.
Yes, I could exclude it this way and get the desired result…
The real reason I would like to get WP plugins working in BBP is for future development I’m considering on the BBPress platform.
At this point; just the reason they don’t work would be enough to keep moving.
I’m pretty knowledgeable about the workings of WP
Actually, because this file is accessible:
http://speakasp.net/asp-forum/bb-templates/kakumei/screenshot.png
and your forum comes up if you access it like this:
http://speakasp.net/asp-forum/index.php
it seems that the files are installed in the proper locations. Maybe the server is not configured to serve index.php as one of the default files? I think the default on IIS is to look for default.asp first, but there has to be a way to serve index.php by default. That’s what you need for bbPress (and WordPress too, which seems to be working already.)
Something should come up when you access this URL: http://speakasp.net/asp-forum but it does not for me, just gives a 404. Maybe index.php is not one of the files served by the webserver? Or your directory structure is different than the URLs you’re trying?
Can you get a directory listing with FTP or something to show the structure? Or, find someone local who can help you by logging in to your server and seeing where things are. Something is not correct and I’m not sure if it’s configuration or that the files are not where we expect them.
thanks for reply i got a blog on sub folder and the forum in another separate sub folder
http://speakasp.net/asp-forum
http://speakasp.net/blog
the install.php is in bb-admin directory but notice when i click “go to step 1” the requested page is
http://speakasp.net/asp-forum/install.php
with no bb-admin folder in the url
when i add manually bb-admin to the url the setup page open with no problems
will i have further problems if i continue with the application or there is something wrong??
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.

but please answer me quickly as i am fighting for three days now with no results
thanks allot
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 Everybody pls suggest me i need bbpress this forum URL is http://www.indiatravelforum.org/forum/ but i want http://www.indiatravelforum.org this url and open this forum.please help me now.

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.
