Ah I just was noticing that you’re calling four separate CSS files in your bbpress install! That’s a lot… you might want to narrow that down a bit. 
What is your active theme?
The CSS that Chris referred to is probably in the subfolder of your active theme… which should be under your /my-templates/ folder.

Got it, I was looking in my BBpress themes folder instead of wordpress themes folder. Thanks!
+1 for this question. I would also like to know..
Ah Ha!!
I just got the bbPress url working!! (happy emoticon here) It is good to see it say
bbPress url Everything is ok!
It is a little tricky. The trick is that the plugin php for bbpress and for wordpress have different file names and you do NOT use the exact same zip file for both plug ins.
Now I just need to know what the secret key in wordpress and bbpress is and where to find it. This is the new error.
Hopefully the plugin developer can help you… his contact information is here:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/
Does the plug in work?
My problem is that after “URL is incorrect or connection error, please verify it (full variant): ” it has a url address to a file that is mixed up. How do I clear it out? And no matter what I put in the field for the the bbPress url, it does not change it.
What is installed on your server… only bbPress? Or do you also have a WordPress install somewhere on there…
Try deleting that require_once line… what that does is enable “deep integration”, so that you can call WordPress functions from inside of bbPress.
Most people don’t need that sort of deep integration – I don’t use it myself. I just use user/cookie integration, so that users only have to sign in once to either my WordPress or my bbPress and they’re all set.
Here’s a list of bbPress professionals, although I don’t know how many of them have done development:
http://bbshowcase.org/forums/topic/bbpress-professionals-advertise-in-this-topic
The most prolific developers are _ck_ and Nightgunner5.
Nightgunner5 has written 9 plugins that I’m aware of (I use two of them, and they are excellent):

_ck_ is by far the most prolific developer, with 60 plugins:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/profile/_ck_
But according to that link above on bbshowcase (her site), she’s not available right now. If you have a larger budget though, it might be worth dropping her a line and seeing if she’s open to it.

If there are active plugin developers that I’ve missed, please let cupra know in the comments!
Good luck! And if you’re open to contributing any custom plugins to the plugin section when you’re done, that’d be great! I’d be glad to help test the plugin…
I don’t know, I’m not that familiar with that particular plugin… sorry!
You may want to try emailing the plugin author? He mentioned in the comments a few times that he’d provide custom programming or support in exchange for a donation, so you may want to offer that?
Let us know how it turns out!
Is this thing, this setting or server feature, called “php-curl “?
This is also called “PHP Client URL Library” and my web site hosting provider says they support this and it is ready to use on my website.
There’s no future posting in bbPress that I’m aware of… although version 1.0 supports a posting API, which might make that easier to pull it off.
The syncing approach could work as well – I don’t have much experience with those plugins, but here’s the link to the plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/
My guess is that your best bet would be to hire a developer to make a custom plugin for ya…
bbPress isn’t a WordPress plugin… it’s an entirely separate program.
Follow the instructions here to install it:
https://bbpress.org/documentation/installation/
Good luck!
Hi. I’ve searched Google and here with no luck, possibly because I’m not using the best keywords.
In WordPress, you can schedule posts to publish at a future date.
I would like to be able to publish a new topic at a future date, rather than immediately.
The reason is that we publish a new article each week. First, it gets posted on the private forum of a membership site. A few days later it gets published on our WordPress blog for the general public.
The WordPress post is always put in early and scheduled to be published on the next Wednesday.
Is a ‘schedule topic’ function available in bbPress or via a plugin?
Or is there another way to do it that I haven’t thought of? I’ve heard that at least at one stage it was possible to sync WordPress posts and forum topics, but I don’t know much about that.
While installing Plugin ….its showing This msg ”The plugin does not have a valid header”.
Please help any body to resolve my problem….
I have a wp blog and a bbpress forum and I want to integrate them both into buddypress, so that the whole site works together, rather than each section operating independantly.
So my idea is to import all my bbpress users into my wp-mu installation. Does that sound sane? I have 5000 users in my bbpress, I’d hate to cut them off.
First things first, bbpress has a display_name field that’s empty. This is used in wp-mu, so I guess I will have to put something there.
Has anyone ever attempted this before? It seems like a lot of work to go through to do something that should be relatively cut and dried.
You can use the HTML Purifier plugin and allow any other tag also:
http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/html-purified/ (Download the bbPress one)
It should do the trick, I’m using it & it works like a charm…!
I don’t want to show the bbpress profile only, instead I want everything that is shown on the bbpress profile to be shown on the wordpress user profile. Is this possible?
WP User Profile
blabla
Forum stats:
blabla
All on 1 profilepage.
Normal method is to create a WordPress with the same name (slug), which will load the forums instead and skin the forums to match the WordPress install, either using CSS and modifying the template, or deep integration as well. There isn’t any way to integrate bbPress into a standard WordPress page apart from iframes.
Several other users of that plugin reported similar issues on the comments of the plugin page:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/
It seems like one cause of that was that some servers don’t allow outgoing connections:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/page/9/
Maybe check with your host about that?
Very good tip.
That worked. I am so close to having this working that I can almost taste it.
I am able to go into the admin panel, (“Dash Board”) of the BBPress now. I have also read the bbPress Plug in folder’s readme file:
This directory is reserved for plugins distributed with the bbPress core package.
If you wish to install more plugins, you should create a new directory called “my-plugins” in the base directory of your bbPress installation and
install them there, not here.
That is good to know.
I did this and I went to the admin panel
It worked
“WordPress-bbPress syncronization” plugin activated
So the bbPress seems to be all ready to haved this going.
Now, I went back to the WordPress Dashboard and pulled up the page for the setup of the plugin on that end.
The only problem I have now is what to give for the bbPress Url. It does not like what I have given for this so for.
bbPress url URL is incorrect or connection error, please verify it (full variant):
I have tried a few things. Nothing has worked. Please advise. Thanks for your help so far.
