A reminder to those using 0.9 not to upgrade to 1.0 yet as many of my plugins (and others) do not support 1.0. I will not be addressing plugin upgrades until December.
10 reasons why to wait a few months to upgrade to bbPress 1.0
1. Your 0.9 install is stable and the core is secure
2. Roughly half the plugins for 0.9 will not currently work with 1.0
3. Once you upgrade you cannot downgrade due to database changes
4. It does not have significant additional features over 0.9
5. It doesn’t use the proven 0.9 core, major parts have been rewritten for BackPress
6. It’s slower, uses 50% more code when producing the same output as 0.9
7. It uses more database queries per page than 0.9
8. It’s code has only months of debugging vs years for 0.8 + 0.9
9. RC was rushed, some changes were made only days ago and are not well tested
10. Version 1.0.1 will be out in a few days (if not a few hours)
Wow, really nice! I was expecting this only in 2010
I’m trying out bbPress, completely clean install, nothing fancy, my own machine with apache 2.2
Installation goes through without any problems, config file gets created, database gets filled.
When I trying to log on first time, the login page redirects me to incorrect location:
“POST /bb/bb-login.php HTTP/1.1” 302 –
“GET /bb/bb/ HTTP/1.1” 404 279
As can be seen, “bb” (the name of installation subdirectory) appears twice.
Lets work around the error by correcting the url manually in the browser:
“GET /bb/ HTTP/1.1” 200 3356
The forum appears to work fine, however attempt to click the “Admin” link (by the only existing, key master user) leads to even more peculiar behavior:
“GET /bb/bb-admin/ HTTP/1.1” 302 –
“GET /bb/ HTTP/1.1” 200 3356
As can be seen, server immediately redirects access back to the starting page (the correct one, unlike the “login” redirect).
Does anybody have any idea what can it be?
The one i found under Downloads: “The latest stable version of bbPress is “Bechet” version 1.0:”
What version of bbPress are you using?
This forum is actually now running 1.0 as well. So if you notice any bugs or glitches here let me know.

Yep, that’s how it looks. Not pretty, but futctional.
Hi!
Thanks for your great work on 1.0 final.
I also have a question to the tags: If i use the destroy tag button i will be forwared to tag-destroy.php. It looks like this: Screenshot Just a blank page with some words. Is this intended? However the tag was deleted…
Footer tells me: 0.397 seconds – but thats relative. I will change host and server when I publish the board. I just know 4 other boards that are faster on my server right now. So its not exactly beeing about “slow” – Its about making it faster. Perhaps with Caching because my board will have 90% passive readers/guests who can wait a few minutes for updates and should not slow it down.
But thanks. Looks like there arent any tipps or a caching-plugin. To bad, bbPress would be really great.

I’ll email you some info on possibly taking over that translation.

Normal progression is alpha to beta to RC. We skipped beta to go straight to RC.
Awesome, super easy upgrade from RC3. So 1.0 Beta was skipped and this is a final 1.0 release now?
Plugins seem to keep working too as mentioned in the RC3 compatibility thread.
As for Tags, I can add and delete them on my custom theme.
Now let new Plugins commence, especially something to split/merge topics *pray*.
Congratulations to the Dev Team, you rock!
@Sam
thanks, i’m waiting for the pot.
how can I do to upload it in the repo? I can have access? There are other projects for bbpress Italian “under constructions” for years and I want start my own with my other project BP IT and WPMU IT, so if is possible i want upload the files to maintain the translation update.
thanks for the reply.
@sambauers
Even I am not able to delete tags (from INove theme), and its not Ajaxed…. its links to the tag-remove.php file.
Hi all,
I have a bbPress 1.0-alpha-6 running, and I don’t know why the favorites link on a topic doesn’t entirely work.
When I click on the link “Add this topic to your favorites”, it creates a meta on the database “bb_favorites” with the proper id, BUT, the link still shows “add this topic to your favorites” instead of a link to the favorite page.
AND, if I add another topic to my favs, it doesn’t add the id with the previous ones, but overrides the meta_value with the new one 
Is it a known bug or is something wrong with my bbpress ..?
@arturo84
The pot will be auto-generated within 24 hours and will be here:
http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/pot/tags/1.0
Thanks Mate 
I am the 24th to download it 
I will also write a blog post on it….
ehi Sam thanks!
is possible have the pot for the 1.0 release? in the svn repo the last pot is for the rev 2285… i have to make the localization before update or my users kill me 
Thanks!
Like the download counter, I was twelfth to download at 12 minutes 
Admin looks loverly now.
Draggable forum order is nice.
Dang, it must be the theme. (can delete tags via the default Kakumei 1.0).
I guess this means this theme uses AJAX for tag deletion (I am a BBPress newbie, don’t know where to look to know for sure).
Any suggestions for a work around without having to switch themes? Here it is:
Theme Name: blank 2 column Right Sidebar
Theme URI: http://refueled.net/blank-themes/
Description: A blank bbPress theme. Matching WordPress themes available.
Version: 1.0
Author: refueled
Author URI: http://refueled.net
@grassrootspa
Is it an integrated install by chance?
Nice !
Thanks Sam for the release !!!
Does this happen on the default theme?
If it works there, is the tag deletion in your template attempted via AJAX?
Sam, just installed. Everything looks amazing internally. Well done.
The bees and hives icons are perfect.
The only snafu I have found is when I try and delete a tag I get
“The tag was not removed.”
“Back to [site name].”
My theme is Refueled Blank 2 Column – Right Sidebar (Not sure if it helps)
