Say you have a thread like the one here:

What would be a recommended approach to print or save ALL pages at once – or read them on one page, when online?
(There are reasons to work with something offline still …)
Hi – I’m getting a similar error – only it occurs for some general users. I integrated BBPress 1.02 with WordPress 2.7. Everything seems to be working fine, but some users report getting a “user not found error” when the click on the “view Profile” link. I checked the database, and all have user nicenames. Any thought?
@ash Just the layout, or also functionality with plugins?
@mwaterous
Ok! You got the <h1> tag. Happy? More suggestions..
@diegozaks: Sounds like you have a special character(s) in your db. You need to find and delete them. I had the same issue.

First of all, thank you for a great script, I have run into a problem, it seems when I try to transfer the 60k posts it reads:
Data too long for column 'post_text' at row 1 [1406]
What can I do about this? Please help it is very urgent.
Also, in order for it to work, since I installed phpbb with a different table prefix, I had to define the prefix on the script file just under the bbPress prefix, then I worked:
$table_prefix = 'phpbb3_';
The way I did it was to duplicate kakamei theme (not the blue) and put it in the my-template.
Then started with the BB header, I copied what was in the WP header. I took everything out after the body tag except for the “main” div. The BB footer I did the same. I just made sure there were enough div closing tags. Then copied over the codes that apply for the header and footer from the WP css. Most WP theme has two column one main and one sidebar. I treated BB like it was wordpress, one side the main section and the other sidebar. I treated the MAIN div as the main section and View/Hottags as the sidebar. I know this is not the best explanation but I hope you get the idea. It just takes a lot of css work.
Thanks for the replies!
I wouldn’t mind installing a plugin to accomplish this, but I tried out Role Manager and it didn’t have any option for displaying emails.
Ashfame, I just went with your method of putting it in profile.php. It’d be nice to not have it as a per template thingy, but it works fine for now. You’re right about it needing to check to see if the current user is an admin to prevent duplicates. I’m new to bbpress so I don’t know if there’s a proper way to do this or not, but I figure the admin is the only one who can edit users, so I plopped in this little guy:
<?php
if ( bb_is_user_logged_in() && !bb_current_user_can( 'edit_users' ) ) {
echo 'user_email .'">' . $user->user_email . '';
}
?>
It seems to work.
They don’t come up automatic, which is why I’m posting. It’s probably theme related, but there doesn’t seem to be much in my theme dealing with that other than calling functions from a core file.

Right now I have hashes in place of the numbers, just messing around. : )
Just turn E_DEPRECATED error logging off and you’ll be fine. XAMPP/Windows isn’t the problem, it’s PHP5.3’s new E_DEPRECATED “feature”.
I guess the most simple (and painless) way to do this will be to redirect/rewrite the profile URL from bbPress to point to the profile URL in WordPress.
You can reference the profile by the ID – in bbPress it goes like http://example.com/bbpress/profile.php?id=1 and it is equivalent to http://example.com/wordpress/?author=1
You just need some .htaccess magic 
Hello,
I would like to display a link to the profiles of my WordPress website on the post.php file, just below the username and avatar.
I tried a code that I found in the profile.php file : <?php echo get_user_display_name( $user->ID ); ?>
But I can’t even make it work. Is it possible to get the Worpress user nicename to create this link? I did a complete WP/BBpress integration…
Thanks a lot for your help
It has to have my name and web site linked to somewhere on it. Then people will know my name. And my web site address. And that I’m super cool enough to be linked to from a theme that I didn’t make.
Ok bbPress lovers! The new month has started and I want to give the community a theme which would cover the needs of masses. So pour in your suggestions. I would like to cover up as many suggestions as possible.
“Forums is category” comes standard in bbPress v. 1.0+… I think you just have to mark them as categories:
http://hoosierhoopsreport.com/bbpress/bb-admin/admin-base.php?plugin=forum_is_category_admin_page
Try that, and see if your theme makes the automatic adjustment?
Somehow my bbpress integration with WPMU and buddypress (which appears on the surface to have been successful) forces all forum posts created in buddypress to come from the key master account (i.e. I’m logged in as somebody and my forum post appears as from somebodyelse)
I’m sure that this is somehow related to a cookie issue, but I can’t figure out what it could be, or where to look.
Does bbPress care if the server is running PHP 4 or 5? Mine is running 5.2.11.
Thanks.
Yes ashfame…THAT!!! That’s what I want. : )
I’m using the guangzhou theme, as it best matches my WP theme. I’m just trying to find the part of the cod where I can manipulate that. Then if I need helping making sense of the code, I’ll be back, but at least I’ll try it on my own. : )
I have added a Link Category menu from my WP to my bbPress menu if anyone is interested. It’s from the WP template tag system. If anyone is interested in that.
Have a look here (if you are using 0.9.0.5):
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-is-category/#post-1495
I’m on my way to implement it for my forum and will report later, if the _ck_ proposed “Add Topic” patch does work – just kidding … 
Which version of bbPress are you using?
I use 1.0.2 on http://needaproject.com/discussion/
Have a look, I have blanks over there
IIRC, there are a few topics about this issue with XAMP. Did you search the forums?
Never change my bbPress to other forum software.
Thanks. What javascript do I check? Also where are the tags stored? Can they be deleted from within where they are stored? I am only using 2 plugins with the theme. One is for images and the other for attachments. Link to the forum is http://www.invictatrader.com/bbpress if you want to see it. Not sure it might help as you have to login as admin to delete tags? And presently I have all the tags with the topics intact. Have not removed a topic and left a tag.
Thank you.
BTW, this seems to be an XAMPP/Windows error not a bbPress one!
I don’t have strict on. I have .htaccess set to show messages, that’s it.
Thank you for the explanation though.
