This plugin seems to have some compatibility issues, but might be worth checking out:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/live-comment-preview/
As an fyi, plugins are generally made by users and aren’t necessarily supposed to work with version 1.0.1; they work with whatever version each developer has tested the plugin on. In most cases, that’s version 0.9.
Right now, very few plugins are officially compatible (i.e. tested) with version 1.0 and 1.0.1. But a number of them are unofficially compatible – they worked on 0.9 and still work (inadvertently) on 1.0.
Good luck!
Fair enough _ck_, fair enough.
Please, note that I was just asking for some quick advice, as I thought that previewing a post before actually posting it is a feature that everybody need and want, so I thought that a few plugins or solutions would out there, and maybe somebody could have answeared: You may want to check this one out!, and point it to the right direction as often happens here (or on any other forum).
I spend more than a few minutes before asking questions. I am aware of the fact that bbPress is young and not all plugins are working in 1.0.1 as they are supposed to, but if I didn’t believe in the future of bbPress I would have just installed vBullettin or PHPbb. But I didn’t, and that it’s because of my belief in bbPress potential.
Cheers.
Something similar was reported here:

These issues are usually the result of a messed up htaccess file… or you could try the template hack that the previous person reported.
sir,
in my website use bbpress when i install Add New link not goes to login page. pls give me soln.
Thought I had it going and it was time to celebrate, but maybe not…
The .htaccess method worked awesomely on the install, but dies for me on the forum itself. Can’t get to anything but the index.php. No styles load, and I can’t access things like the CSS files directly either.
Suggestions? I tried removing the rewriting rules all together because I haven’t setup my permalinks yet, and still nothing there either.
Hmmm…
Just finally got around to doing this. The .htaccess method worked awesomely.
To clarify for anyone else reading this, you’ll want to put the above .htaccess code in your WordPress .htaccess file, because that’s where the bbPress requests will still be hitting. You can remove the .htaccess file in your bbPress directory using this method.
Hey fellow bbPress enthusiasts,
I have just spent forever playing with PHP trying to get the name generated by “Last Poster” in Latest Discussions on Forum or Front-Page to link to THAT user’s bbPress profile.
My apologies if I am missing an easy “<a href=” command to surround the php in:
<td class="num"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>
Nothing seems to work.
Many thanks as my brain has been fried working on this.
Could you use the “Data Dictionary” link at the bottom of the page in phpMyAdmin? I think it shows you everything you need to know about the tables. Not sure what versions of phpMyAdmin that’s in, but it’s in version 3.2 for sure and I think I recall that being in at least as far back as 2.9.

Does that give enough information to start converting?
So you installed bbPress into a different database from WordPress, but you previously integrated the users, so bbPress is already using the wp_users table?
Maybe you need a plugin to send email using an external SMTP mailer?
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/smtp-mailer-for-bbpress/
I’ve heard a couple times about bbPress on IIS not sending emails, but I’ve never been able to nail down why. I think people have successfully integrated SwiftMailer into bbPress as well, but that was with 0.9 or earlier. The plugin is good for 1.0+.
When do you get bumped to the top? After posting a reply, or when you go to view a topic, you always start at the top?
Also, what version bbPress are you using?
Yes, just click the hash (#) next to the time posted and you’ll see that that’s a permalink to the one specific reply. This is yours. Might not look like much unless your browser window is very small, but you can check the address bar to be certain it’s working.
This site isn’t too bad:
http://www.w3schools.com/css/
But if you just search the internet, you will find lots of tutorials and references. You’ve already gone about modifying your template files, so modifying the CSS is not going to be too difficult for you.
There’s no need to have all those folders. Just put bbPress into a folder called whatever you want (forums?) and call it a day.
If you took the database connection details from your wp-config.php, be sure you don’t copy the CONSTANT names as well, just the variable part (the part about your database.) The constants are named differently in bb-config.php and wp-config.php.
If you copied over just the variable portion, then you did something wrong because it will connect in both places (WordPress and bbPress) if you have the connection details correct. It’s telling you right here that it’s not.
There was a threaded posts plugin a while back:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/threaded-posts/
I have no idea what version you’re running or if that plugin will work with it.
What version of bbPress did you install?
I believe the plugin page for Avatar Upload has a few suggestions as to how to use it in WordPress.

Hi all, just wondering if it is possible to add the forum description on a topic page?
I’m using bbPress 1.0.1 by the way…
I would like to know the database schema, too. I have about 2000 posts from a flat file database and want to import it to bbpress. Anyone has any suggestions?
Yes, you’ll just have to fetch the username and then have the same username in bbPress and then edit your comments-template.php inside your WordPress template. 
I don’t have the time to fully explain it though, but i will do it myself soon actually so…
Sorry to bump an old thread, but I’m experiencing a similar issue with BuddyPress, bbPress + XMLRPC.
Using the XMLRPC debugger that mypop used (https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/forums-not-being-created?replies=14#post-11107), I get this error:
-32700 >> parse error. not well formed
My issues are explained on the BuddyPress forums as well:

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks for reading.
I’ve tried the script at http://62.233.82.132/illuminatus/bbpress/delete_directory.php but it doesn’t delete the two erroneous directories. I’ve also tried using plesk file manager but don’t have permissions to either delete file or change the current rwx r-x —. If I try to upload a theme to my-templates I get an ftp error ‘directory doesn’t exist’ so it appears to me that the two directories, my-plugs and templates, don’t serve bb1.0 automatic creation of directories well.
