I have used wordpress, muwordpress, drupal and joomla and proprietary CMS extensively, for any kind of website. I’m about to start testing bbpress but I have to say that I’m a bit sceptical.
One thing is that the best communities I have ever seen are based on forum specialized software (not going to mention these here, you know them). So in order to establish a well performing online community I suggest that you use one of these software (bbpress seems to be one of these).
The other thing is that the community will help protect the community, so unless you build it and it grows, you won’t be able to keep it clean and tidy all by yourself.
Ok…I thought this was the same place…I just typed in bbpress to look for a support forum…I thought that was what I installed with WP…Sorry for the trouble but thank you for all your help…Kenney
Hi, I’m trying to figure out how to display bbPress’ tag cloud from the sidebar in WordPress. I’ve googled a lot, but can’t seem to find anyone who’s done this.
I’ve hacked a temporary solution that displays the topic tags from bbpress as a list in the wordpress sidebar, but I’d really love to have the size formatting as well.
<?php
global $wpdb;
$taglist = $wpdb->get_results(“select name from bb_terms”,”ARRAY_N”);
$number_of_tags_to_show = 10;
for ($count = 0; $count < $number_of_tags_to_show; $count++)
{
if($taglist[$count][0])
{
$tag = str_replace( ” “, ” “, $taglist[$count][0]);
echo ‘
<a href=”http://www.mysite.org/forum/tags.php?tag=’;
echo $tag;
echo ‘”>’.$tag.’
‘;
}
}
?>
Any suggestions for how to access bb_tag_heat_map from inside WordPress?
I this where you’re going to run bbPress or is it a test installation? These are warnings that appear to be related to running on XAMP and do not normally occur in a production installation.
Also, they’re just warnings. If you can turn off PHP warnings, I think you won’t have any more trouble. But if you’re going to be running this in a production environment on another server anyway, I would just install it there and not worry about these issues.
I would like install bbpress but how can I trying i got this

thank you for yout help
You did not get phpBB from here. phpBB support forums are here:
http://www.phpbb.com/community/
If we’re talking about the link you posted, it redirects here – http://youngmoney.us/dir1/index.php which is phpBB, not bbPress.
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?
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/html-tags-for-explanation-purposes#post-60673
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.
http://chrishajer.com/bbpress/bbpress-version.png
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 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.
