Okay, after reading a lot of topics and fixing stuff, I got this to work. Will report bugs in time.
See these posts if you want to get it to work:

Also you need to change the header, or else you won’t see it in your plugins list. Change it into:
/*
Plugin Name: bbemoticons
Plugin URI: none
Description: Simple and plain smiley function for bbPress
Author: hiromasa
Version: 0.72
Author URI: hiromasa (http://hiromasa.zone.ne.jp/blog/)
*/
Also add this in the header, found it somewhere, I think it helps also.
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”‘. bb_get_option(‘uri’) .
‘my-plugins/bb-emoticons.php?bb_grins_output=javascript”></script>
I don’t believe this website is using any plugins.
you have to open two files from your BBpress template:
front-page.php
forums.php
look for the lines:
<th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?> — <?php bb_new_topic_link(); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>
<th> is the titles so you will most likely put “<th><?php _e(‘Author’); ?></th>” showing Author as the title. Just remember what order you put it on if you put it third then you need to put it third on teh enxt step.
Look for:
<td class=”num”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>
The class might be different but <?php topic_posts(); ?> is the same
so you put third:
<td class=”num”><?php topic_author(); ?></td>
I went ahead and dropped all the bb_ tables and went to re-install. I got this message:
“The key master could not be assigned. You may need to replace bbPress with a fresh copy and start again.”
So, I uninstalled BBPress and uploaded a fresh copy and ran the install again. Sure enough, the install failed at the first step again with “The key master could not be assigned. You may need to replace bbPress with a fresh copy and start again.”
How can I make the key master get assigned?
Im trying to complete instalation of the bbpress on my site but im stuck. theres a step where im supposed to go to the bp-forums folder and go to the bbpress-plugins folder and find the buddypress-enable.php file. this is where i get stuck. theres no such file on that folder. y idea what can i do to solve this inconvinience?
I doubt if its running any. May be some for occasional debugging purposes but nothing for added functionality. I would also like to hear what others have to say on this.
Is the site itself slow, or just the dashboard?
Also – try bb-benchmark to see how many queries there are, and how long the render time is:

Hello,
I recently converted phpbb3 > bbpress 1.0.2 and for some reason now the Dashboard form the admin panel loads really slow. It seems like a mysql issue but when I check the process list it doesn’t seem bad.
The 0.9 version of bbPress integrates with WordPress 2.7.1.
Some above have mentioned “less is just less”… and for a non-hacker like myself, I agree. I’d like to see bbpress come “fully loaded”, at LEAST with all the basic features one sees in SMF and phpbb3 all ready to rock and roll “out of the box”.
FULL integration / merging with WP would be my pick. Then themers would have to work harder developing the bb into their themes for each WP “community portal” (What I’m calling the FULL WP / bbpress / buddypress / bbsync package).
I’ve also expressed my ‘wish list’ here.
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/299017?replies=9#post-1175959
However, having said that I totally agree with the moderator above who said “So it’s something about the promise of bbPress that’s not yet been realized that gets people frustrated.” WordPress is way cool, and with a *truly* integrated bbpress portal system, it would rock the world and give Drupal and Joomla and SMF and phpbb3 a good run for their money! Imagine a Fantastico install of WP, and then just ticking some boxes and all the bbpress stuff was already there, “fully loaded” with all the options and ready to rock & roll?
Ahhhh, I’m a suckie Myer’s Briggs ENJF idealist… can’t help myself….
I know this function from many type of websites but never used on a forum 
don’t think that it will be easy to develop inside bbpress, check the plugin list I thought I saw some old extension there
ps. Pimp is a word young people like to say (pimp a car)
Not sure how to explain this.
But, i really like being able to just click on the top of forums to sort posts by number of relies and views. It seems like this should be a basic feature for forums. Is this possible for bbPress. I see its not possible at bbpress.org/forums.
As an aside, I am older than most people in these forums, so please understand this. Just a few words, one of the most disgusting characters in our culture was “the pimp”. Extremely insulting comment, unless you were in that subculture. Someone who was in the biz of prostituting women. I realize that things have changed. But, for me this is still tacky. Why not just say what you mean, such as “Promote your forum” or “Show off your forum!” “Pimp” is not cool, at all. Thanks
Yes. I used that. But the plugin have a problem. I can only show 1 youtube video per post. Anyone had the same experience?
Latest news:
I made a kind of Latest Featured Articles widget on the front website.
– I found a very neat CSS/Jquery snippet that i hooked up with the wordpress loop, added a plugin called
“custom-field-images” so I can add image metatags on my blog posts, and then echoing the url to the featured article widget.
The result is an image with some transparent hovering div over with headlines and excerpt + a list of the latest blog posts that are powered by Jquery to change the main image and text om click.
I am using the Topic Icons plugin and it works great! However I’d like to display a “Default” Icon as a fallback if the Topic Icon plugin doesn’t do it for me.
Ever since I started using Buddypress and integrated BbPress, Users can now use forum in “Groups” section. When a user creates a new group, A new subforum will appear. So that’s why I need to have a fallback Icon. I can’t manually sit and add numbers everytime there is a new subforum created.
I already have a script for not showing these subforums in my Forums list.
So another option than using a default topic icon would be to filter these topics (From the subforums) out from the Latest Discussions. But then I need a script in Latest Discussions to filter out all topics that come from a subforum. I never managed to do that.
I use this for the forumloop:
`<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?>
<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : global $forum; if ($forum->forum_parent != 0) continue; ?>`
But I cant get something similar working with topics. And Im afraid that If i filter out this I will have trouble with the page counter too.
Somehow the best solution would be a Default fallback Topic Icon. Anyone have any idea how I can solve this?
What’s the correct URL supposed to be?
If you installed bbPress under WP plugins, that’s never gonna work. It’s a stand alongside app.
(should bb have a URL check on setup? If in wp-content/plugins, then ABORT!)
WPMU 2.8.4a + BB 1.0.2 + BP 1.0.3
I don’t know if I should be posting it here or on BuddyPress.org I integrated those three to work together. I’m was planning to use bbPress signatures by _CK_. When you click edit profile you go to the BuddyPress side. The plugin is for BBpress side. So how do I get it to work on the BuddyPress side and the forums?
Installed bbpress successfully on personal WP blog. No problems.
Attempted install on second blog and I get an odd error when trying to access admin. After entering keymaster name/password and clicking login, I get redirected to:
https://(blogname).com/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/
(WP plugins folder now seems a weird place to install, but I was just jumping in)
The redirect address just takes me to a “not found” page on the WP blog. So, I go back to the initial /bbpress/ location and the keymaster name shows as logged in. All links appear to function fine except for Admin. Clicking on this does nothing.
I was noticing this, but chalked it up to running v1.x with outdated plugins. I’ve gone back to v0.9.0.6 and haven’t seen it happen… yet.
Okay I think I got it. Thanks to Kernpunt (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/first-pass-at-a-fix-for-deep-integration-in-trunk#post-55915) I didn’t have access to the error logs.
I deactivate both plugin from both sides (for now).
I didn’t have clue what it was. I thought it was because my php memory was limited.
Now I’m integrating BBpress theme into WP!
Ruby on Rails has some stuff to allow memcached storage of user sessions:
http://awesomerails.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/memcache-sessions-in-rails/
@finalwebsite – _ck_ is a female developer. I was referring to her statements that “the performance boost will be trivial, almost non-existent for a single server setup” and ” Memcache is only beneficial for multi-server systems, it’s why it was invented in the first place.” But ymmv!
Hi Spell, check the time on your server first (use ssh)
so it’s possible to store user sessions with memcache? this is cool.
do you know some reference material about this function?
