I’ve now made the identical Topic Voices functionality available for bbPress 0.9
http://bbshowcase.org/plugins/topic-voices.zip
Any changes you make to your templates to use it will remain compatible when upgrading to 1.0, users will only have to deactivate the plugin after upgrading.
(this is also a demonstration of how Voices should have been a plugin rather than in the core)
ashfame’s guide is pretty clear on the steps. For me, the key was going to http://YOURSITE/wp-admin/options, grabbing the AUTH keys there, then pasting them in the correlating section of the bbPress config.php file in the install. Once they both had the exact same cookie codes in their config files, it worked like a charm.
I have the same problem… any solutions?
Thank you so much…I’m going to try to reinstall it again.
Integration works! (Mostly)
However, if I log in via BBPress, and try to log-out via WP, it will not let me, I must go to BBPress to logout.
Every other combination of log-in, log-out works (I think) except for this one.
In WP — Out BBP : Yes
In WP — Out WP : Yes
In BBP — Out WP : No
In BBP — Out BBP : Yes
Any thoughts?
WPMU 2.8.1 (in subdirectory, using sub-sub- directories for blogs ( example.com/blogs/blog1 )
BBPress 1.0.1 (in subdomain: bbpress.example.com )
@Ashfame – You keep insisting that no plugin is needed – however, I could not make the integration work until I installed the plugin –
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-integration/
I have WP installed in a subdirectory, and BBPress installed in a sub-domain. The plugin helped me to discover how to a) make the cookies register in the same root domain, and b) define the cookie hash that was missing.
In short, although it may not be needed – it is useful. In my humble opinion.
Hi all,
I have bbpress 1.01 and inove theme…
The password reset or forget password link is not showing anywhere..
( http://telecomdiary.com/Telecom_Forums/ ) … please help.
Hi all,
I have bbpress 1.01 and successfully running. But, it is the same old problem I am facing.
New users are not recieving mails while they register at forums. Although, I have instant-password plugin, mails need to send. Some one please help me..
I hosted my site ( http://www.telecomdiary.com/Telecom_Forums/ ) at remote server and it is IIS7 Plus….
Why I need to login again if I visit the Extend Section – http://bbpress.org/plugins/ even if I am logged in on forums? Isn’t there should be a synchronization?
You can make a view to do that quite easily.
In fact there is already such a view in “My Views” plugin.
Ignore the completely proprietary query system (BB_Query) that the bbpress api uses, it’s incomplete, brain damaging and 100% non-portable to any other system. Just use real mysql queries instead (that goes for WP_Query as well, I have no idea what they were thinking).
Just for “fun” I’ve tallied the bbPress release history so far:

Good day,
I am working on a review site built using WordPress/bbPress and am in need of a ratings module. I’ve looked all over but as it turns out what I really want is something that bbpress uses when you go to a plugins page. An example of such a page is below (picked at random):
http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/best-answer/
On the right sidebar there is brief information along with an average rating and the ability to allow the user to vote (and adjust it in the future). What’s more is that users are able to post their reviews within the same page which is perfect for what I need.
I’m using bbPress in conjuction with WordPress for my site, and since the logins database is used between them a plugin solution can be for either bbPress or WordPress.
Is such a plugin available, and if so where may I find it?
Thanks for your help.

Yah, you can see some of the emotional responses in past threads:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fix-or-remove-bozo-function-before-it-kills-bbpress
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/key-master-posts-not-showing-up
It happened to one of my top contributors, and she almost quit before I finally figured out what was going on! Thankfully it’s just a plugin, so you can turn it off. (It’s a little scary, but more and more stuff like this is ending up in core – so bugs like this will be a lot harder to resolve, imo!)
@_ck_: That would be awesome!
@johnhiler: Thanks for your insights. Before this thread I was not sure if I my theme’s moderation system was simply not working right…looks like it is! My only major beef with bbPress is moderation interface.
1) Don’t like that you can’t permanently delete a post. (Let’s say there is a duplicate…it is pointless for the duplicate to remain in the system, want it deleted completely so I don’t confuse myself when I see it on the “Recently Moderated Items” of the dashboard!)
2) Anyone else have problems where bbPress flags a new poster (maybe they use naughty stuff in their name or profile descriptions) and makes them a bozo but you unfortunately don’t notice that bbPress flagged them for a couple days? Wish there was a better notification system for this (no one wants to lose potential users who are frustrated by their material not showing up)
I think that error occurs if you have bb_ prefix tables already. Can you check the database to see if that’s the case? If there are bb_ tables already, maybe you tried once before to install bbPress?
Looks like you have a bbpress folder inside the forum folder? I think I would just reinstall. Unzip the bbPress software then rename the folder ‘forum’ before you start the installation. That’s probably easier than trying to fix it if you don’t have any action there yet.
Polish forum about chronic gynecological issues. BBPress 1.01 + custom theme.
You can see topics you started on the bottom of your profile page?
https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/thion
Maybe that would be a place to start, in terms of figuring out how to make a custom query?
I put the bbpress forum at http://www.forum.thechristianchapel.com, then when it gave the url as http://www.forum.thechristianchapel.com/bbpress and gave me the option to change it, I did. I changed it to http://www.thechristianchapel.com/forum. I had it and then I messed it up, now when I type either of these in I get an index and not the bbpress forum. How can I fix this?
Oops, you’re right. Upon closer inspection it did not work without changes for me.
Instead of changing the bbPress side, I decided to make TinyMCE a bit more bbPress compliant. I wrote a little plugin which posts double line breaks instead of paragraphs. You can find it here:
http://www.kreativrauschen.com/blog/2009/07/12/bbpress-compatibility-plugin-for-tinymce/
I have written a simple plugin for TinyMCE to make it compatible with bbPress’ usage of double line breaks as paragraphs. The plugin replaces all paragraphs with said double linebreaks and br-Tags with single linebreaks upon posting. When editing an existing post, all linebreaks get transformed back into br-tags for TinyMCE. So you can use TinyMCE with bbPress without changing anything in bbPress.
You can download it here:
http://www.kreativrauschen.com/blog/2009/07/12/bbpress-compatibility-plugin-for-tinymce/
You also need to set remove_linebreaks to false, or all linebreaks will get removed by TinyMCE.
Currently, it still has one limitation (besides not being thoroughly tested): When you edit an existing post, double line breaks do not get converted back to paragraphs in TinyMCE. Instead they become two br-tags.
