I faced with the very same problem with two bbpress installations along with a WP. I slightly modified the function is_404() in the /wp-includes/query.php so the function returns true when the requested uri belongs to the forums.
function is_404 () {
global $wp_query;
if (preg_match('/(firstbbpressfoldername|secondbbpressfoldername)/i', $_SERVER))
{return true;}
else{
return $wp_query->is_404;}
}
After saving the irritating 404 issue has gone.

I have installed BBPress and integrated it with my WP install and theme. The issue I am running into is the BBPress seems to be aligned left, I am using the default kakumei theme, any help on how to center it onto my page would be greatly appreciated. Link to my BB install is below.

love you all
felabria, keep in mind that at WordPress.org, they do not have cookie sharing setup; so logging into the forums does not mean you’re logged into the codex, etc…
We fixed it by changing it to an echo call. But I think the problem was just a missing ‘;’.
As for Peacemaker, so far so good. I know it’s old, so I am looking for a good three column bbpress theme compatible with 1.0.2 and with a similar header feature to Peacemaker. But I haven’t found one yet.
Thanks
Did you see this?
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/new-bbpress-theme-peacemaker#post-15554
That theme is over a year old, before bbPress 1.0 was out. There are probably some incompatibilities.
You will need to create a bbPress theme that looks like your WordPress theme. If you’re not comfortable creating a theme, you will need to find someone to do that for you.
Can somebody help me with that? I want something like WordPress.org/support has. That it would have the same theme. I use Mystique wordpress theme.
I believe this is the line
<p><?php printf(__(‘Your registration as %s was successful. Within a few minutes you should receive an email with your password. If you don’t find it check your spam folder.’), $user_login) ?></p>
I’m working with the BBpress Peacemaker Template and users keep getting this error when registering:
Parse: syntax error unexpected T_STRING in /home/dblog/public_html/townsquare/bb-templates/peacemakerbbpress/register-success.php on line 11
The registration goes through, but they never reach the confirmation line. I’m using BBPress 1.0.2, if that matters.
Any ideas what’s going on?
I am looking for someone to create a theme for BBpress based on my current WP theme. Just looking for the Header/Footer and color scheme to be the same. And look as integrated as possible.
Feel free to email me if you are interested (matt @ malaney dot org)
@chipbennett: “Is it approaching something that others would find useful?”
You bet! 
I am relatively new to forums hosting and very new to bbPress so it would be wonderful to see how you set it up.
Thanks!
BuddyPress and integration are two things I am weak in, so it’s good you’re around. Thanks again.
Hey Chris!
You’re very welcome. I should be thanking you for keeping bbpress.org on the up and up. I’m happy to help on the this side of things too and I’ll pop in from time to time to check in on BuddyPress integration questions, etc…
I think it took a while for WordPress to get where it is today, including video tutorials at wordpress.tv – bbPress is not there yet. WordPress 1.0 was January 2004, and the first video tutorial on wordpress.tv was posted January 2009. bbPress 1.0 was released June 2009. I think there is a lot more development to be done with bbPress before resources would ever be devoted to anything like bbpress.tv (which is not registered ATM.)
Looks like that plugin was designed for version 0.74… that’s three releases ago!

Maybe you could study how it works, and adapt it to work with more recent versions?
Dear Admin,
We all really need video tutorials regarding bbpress plugins, integration, themes, and all it’s stuff. you know virtual lesions help are better then written posts. so why you people are so late to to launch bbpress.tv or video tutorials guides like wordpress.tv
moderators are also welcome to answers!!
Do you know if this problem is resolved? I had the plugin downloaded onto my bbPress forum for me a few days ago and I was not aware of this topic at the time. Is it now safe to use or should I be taking it off?
That site is _ck_’s developer showcase… I believe she did those flags with mini-track:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/mini-track/
She no longer officially supports that plugin though – much of the functionality has been moved into the excellent mini-stats:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/mini-track/page/3/#post-2436
But the flag functionality isn’t part of mini-stats, alas.
If you know how to edit or develop WordPress plugins, you shouldn’t have a problem working with bbPress plugins! If not, then maybe you could hire a developer to help with the port…
Yes, I noticed the flags at http://bbshowcase.org/forums/ but they only appear on the front page of the forum – I want mine to appear underneath the poster’s avatar everytime he/she posts something.
It defeinitely exists on wordpress because I use it on my wordpress site. It is called the Comment Info Detector plugin by someone called Hieudt. I don’t know how to port plugins from wordpress to bbPress – is that something very difficult or very easy to do?
Hey jjj, thanks for stepping up and helping Andy with BuddyPress:
https://buddypress.org/blog/news/doubling-up/
Not currently possible with bbPress.
Notice the flags at the bottom of this forum:
http://bbshowcase.org/forums/
I thought it was part of _ck_’s mini track plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/mini-track/
I’m not saying this will do everything you want straight away, but the idea exist and maybe you can extend from there.
Ah… so like an IP detection plugin which displays the country automatically!
I haven’t seen that on bbPress. Does it exist on WordPress? If so, it can probably be ported!
Any one know of a Comment Length Limiter plugin that I can use for my bbPress forum. Your help is appreciated.
