I just realized it is doing the same thing on another bbpress forum I installed last year. I know it used to work however. Ugh.
chrishajer, I installed bbpress 0.9.0.4 , and they are sharing a database, use the same login, etc.
sambauers posted this in another thread:
Oh, I forgot, add this to your bb-config.php
define(‘WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION’, 1);
When you upgrade to WordPress 2.8 later, you will need to remove that line.
Worked like a charm for me!
When my users click the same link while signed out, they get sent to a similar link:
http://boards.weddingbee.com/bb-login.php?re=http%3A%2F%2Fboards.weddingbee.com%2F%3Fnew%3D1
So it looks like bbPress is sending users to the right place. So I played around with your URL a bit:
http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/bb-login.php?re=http://www.endsofearth.com/
That didn’t work either, so I stripped off the re= part completely:
http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/bb-login.php
That worked… suggesting that the problem is with the re= part and your htaccess file.
Just when I was feeling clever, I did a quick Google search and ck had already figured it all out:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/latest-discussions-add-new-link-problem-if-not-logged
Maybe try disabling MultiViews or checking your htaccess file?
Looks like you integrated with WordPress 2.7.1 – did you integrate the logins? What version of bbPress did you install?
Looks like your installation is missing the bb-load.php? Did you try to include bb-load.php into WordPress? If so, you probably just have the path to the file wrong.
Are the xxxx’s the path to bbPress or WordPress directories? Obfuscating that makes it hard to see what your error is really saying.
Also, what version of bbPress are you talking about?
No, I don’t. I’m still pretty new to WP and would like to integrate them both. I have Facebook Connect running on the main site for comments and would like to do the same for the forums. Since I couldn’t port the site over from my old software (e107), I opted for Facebook as an easy way to comment.
Is there a way to integrate Facebook Connect into bbPress?
Very nice. I see you’re using WordPress 2.7.1. Do you have integrated logins between the forum and the WordPress site, and if so, how did you integrate them?
I just launched my site on WordPress and am loving it. http://kingscast.net (We’re about 98% complete with integration)
I also launched our bbPress forums site found at http://kingscast.net/forums – custom theme but playing around with integration of plugins, etc.
I’d appreciate any feedback! Thanks!
Here is an untested variation of Mark’s WP plugin for bbPress, it’s a little more sophisticated in that it tries to return the person back to the topic they were in if it exists or if they were starting a topic, to the forum they were posting in.
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Moderation Notification
Author: _ck_
*/
add_action( 'bb_post.php', 'moderation_notification', 999);
add_action( 'bb_head', 'moderation_notification_alert', 999);
function moderation_notification($post_id) {
if (empty($post_id)) {return;} // invalid post
$post = bb_get_post($post_id);
if ($post->post_status==0) {return;} // not moderated
if ($post->post_position>1) {
$link = get_topic_last_post_link($post->topic_id); // return them to the last known good post in the topic
} else {
$link = get_forum_link($post->forum_id); // return them to the forum that they posted in since there's no valid topic yet
}
$link=add_query_arg('moderated','true',$link); // set the flag
wp_redirect($link);
exit;
}
function moderation_notification_alert() {
if (!isset($_GET['moderated'])) {return;}
$out = <<<EOF
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
alert ("You post was successfully processed, \n\n however it was placed on hold and will appear once a moderator verifies that it is not spam.\n\n Please be patient and do not resubmit your comment.");
//-->
</script>
EOF;
echo $out;
}
?>
You can see the notice by putting ?moderated=true on one of your urls
I don’t recommend trying to purposely cause spam to test it because akismet might flag you globally as a spammer and you’ll end up being bozo’ed across multiple forums/blogs.
I’m in the same boat. I’ve tried every suggestion I’ve come across in the forums, the cookie hashes match, the settings match, and still it refuses to work. It’s rather frustrating to say the least.
Not sure about BuddyPress at all…
Because bbPress is not a plugin for WordPress, it’s not really possible, as far as I know, to make your forum appear in a WordPress page. Someone posted here once about putting bbPress in an iFrame and putting that in a WordPress page, but I’ve still not seem it working at all.
Most people create a theme for bbPress that looks like your WordPress theme and then they integrate the logins so you can log in once for both bbPress and WordPress.
Ipstenu, my skip-akismet plugin works on wordpress installs too, though there is some kind of subtle bug I can’t seem to find where it doesn’t catch everyone on the wp side, works great on the bbpress side however.
If you meant what will notify users of comments being held, this will do it:
http://txfx.net/files/wordpress/notify-users-of-moderation.phps
What’s crazy is that was written back for WP 1.2, and yet it’s still needed, 5 years later.

Sam’s code works but still it displays the time in GMT rather than in my timezone. That doesn’t seem right cause it display the proper time since. How do I get that correctly?
(same thing with _ck_’s code – off the time zone and into GMT)
EDIT:
looking through some bbPress code I think I’ve got it right at last! The time has to be filtered through bb_offset_time, so the code should be(for post times):
echo date("date-format-goes-here", bb_offset_time(strtotime($bb_post->post_time)));
Still wonder why isn’t the time filtered when using sam’s code…
EDIT again:
and it does not localize – the date is in English… wonder how to set that up?
Ah, that might be it, thanks. I had only checked the bbpress repository 
Is this needed/required for the dreaded WPMU/BP/BBpress integration as well?
I have downloaded the files, extracted them and uploaded them to my site, each and every one of them but when I go to the link of my forum to install it in step one I have reems of the same kind of message saying:
Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /homepages/41/d23308234/htdocs/PRBSPORTS/bbpress/bb-includes/wp-functions.php on line 113
It goes on for quite a while with the installation info at the bottom. Any ideas what it could be?
Today I installed the bbPress Attachments plugin, which seems to work well.
But then I tried to delete a topic, got a PHP header already sent error, and when I returned to the Front Page, in the Forums and Latest Discussions tables I no longer have the Topics & Posts counts in the Forums table, nor do I have the Posts, Last Poster and Freshness columns in the Latest Discussions.
I’m running .9.0.3.
Anyone have any ideas what might have happened and/or how I could resolve this?
Well. We’re all wondering, aren’t we? Those of us insane enough to be on bleeding edge, report!
Here are the ones I’m using without any issues:
- Akismet 1.0
- Allow Images 0.7.1
- bbPress Smilies 0.0.8
- Comment Quicktags for bbPress 1.1
- Spoiler Tags 0.4
- Unread Posts 0.9.3
BACKUP EVERYTHING INCLUDING DATABASE before any upgrade.
You cannot downgrade once you upgrade, all you can do is restore a backup.
With 0.9 upgrades, many plugins will likely stop working including several of mine.
Both were downloaded yesterday, so the version would be… most current.
Just moved the site from a WPMU to stand-alone. All functioning perfectly after editing and restoring from WPMU SQL before going on to add the bbpress. I did get the bbpress working perfectly before deciding to change from myurl.com/forum to forum.myurl.com so maybe there was residual info left from the first install, even though I dumped all tables and bbpress wares.
I didn’t consider restoring/refreshing WP before re-installing the bbpress. This may be where the issue occurred. I will refresh all WP files then try again.
I looked at my wp-config but lines aren’t numbered so I’ll have to count to 80, I’m on lunch break… thanks for the reply. I will look into detailed info when I get home tonight. I didn’t know that bbpress would alter the wp php files… except to create .htaccess and bb_config
thanks again. and no worries… I’m sure a freshy will fix it… cause it’s got to be on my end, not the software.
btw: when i added the define cookies text from the bb configuration/integration settings page to my wp-config.php, the text I added showed at the top of my site… (an error)
