I have a functionla site at http://www.theindiansabroad.com using WP 2.7.1
Today I downloaded installed bbpress under http://www.theindiansabroad.com/forum and i was able to login and I received email with user and pwd info. as expected after the account was set.
The problem started right after I integrated bb to WP . I can login to wp but when I try to go to bb (/forum), it gives me a weird error at the top left corner. If I try to recover the pwd, it says email sent but I receive nothing…basically I cannot login.
The error format is
bbPress database error: [Table ‘XXX_forum.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT ID FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘host’
bbPress database error: [Table ‘XXX_forum.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘host’
The XXX_forum is my database and user name (and it is not wp_forum). the user name was host before the inegration. I cannot change my firsr part of database or username in MYSQL (from XXX to wp) as it is assigned by my hosting (justhost.com) company.
Could you please tell me how to fix this.
Thanks.
frooyo, mine doesn’t look like that at all (my admin panel alignment is fine). Did you change the /bb-admin/style.css
file?
This plugin helps restore keymaster access for bbPress:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/
Not sure if it helps at all for WordPress… did you lose access to your blog or your boards?
if I install this wil i be able to upgrade to stable version1 after?
frooyo, you should put your themes in /my-templates/ not in /bb-templates/. This helps with upgrades.
I was not aware that there was a problem with the cookies. Currently, I have to login to each separately. The bbPress db shows a link to the wp user tables. Whenever I change any of the settings in the WordPress Integration, none of my users are recognized. Thanks for backups!!
The WP and bbPress integration is implemented on my company intranet that I am building.
Yes, it was the MCBS problem, _ck_.
Great news on the RC1 release!
Hi,
I am having an issue with the bbPress Attachments plugin and Pretty permalink type, I have activated the name based pretty permalink type and installed the bbPress Attachments – it’s all good until I try and download a document. The document will not download. Changing the permalink type to none – resolves the issue. Can this be fixed with an amend to the .htaccess file? If so could someone enlighten me as to what that amend might be?
Thanks
Glad to see this project going on. I really look forward to a final version 1.0
OK, I’ll upgrade and check if that works. Thanks.
Actually this topic is very old and the openid plugin has been out for some time now.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/openid/
In most of my plugins I use curl with a fallback to a solid fsockopen routine I wrote awhile back that works well. I can’t remember if I have it in openid.
I avoid api as much as possible because of how they tend to change and break my plugins 
Plus you learn nothing when you just use someone else’s black box…
When i create a new forum and click on it, the site goes blank
Can someone please help me out with this, I’m willing to pay anyone who can solve my issue.
Thanks,
Russell
Try the latest 1.0 release (1.0-rc-1). There was a bug in the way orphaned users got their roles applied. If you upgrade, then re-save the role map in the admin, it might fix your problems.
I’ll be working on the admin area this week to get it up to scratch. You can expect another RC next week.
my-plugins and my-templates are now created automatically if they don’t already exist, so they will be created on all new installs.
I’ve setup the role map, and WP integration ages ago, but newly registered users get “inactive” role by default… ? (WP2.7.1&bbP1a6)
FYI, the .htaccess file is never included in the distro. Nor are your my-* folders. It’s SOP to copy those, and your config file, over in WP and BB. Probably considered ‘understood’ for anyone using the RC.
I can’t paginate through my users on the admin side. The links give me the URL of:
/bb-admin/users.php?page=2
HOWEVER if I manually put in this, it works:
/bb-admin/users.php?userspage=2
Still can’t paginate from that page, though. Then ALL the links become the userspage=2 (yes, the 2, if I change it to 3, the links are 3, etc etc). I reset my .htaccess (just in case) but no help there.
Logged in #1076
So I just noticed that the Admin panel uses a different stylesheet than the general form style sheet.
As such, I want to report how the Admin CSS is out of alignment for management links.

After I created the missing .htaccess file and now using the RC-1 now for about an hour, it works greats.
No problems at all.
Only comments I have, other than say WAHOOOOOOOO
is:
1. It’s feels a bit slower than ALPHA 6 but that could just be my imagination. (Hope someone ports WP SuperCache soon for caching non-logged in content … that will make a huge difference simply by having a cached front-page and user topics/posts).
2. The admin panel interface links seems a little out of alignment for Managing User & Topics but then again – I’ve modified the style.css so much – that could just be a result of that.
3. Wish the user Admin Panel had the same clean interface that the Upgrade database schema interface has. But I assume that will all come later, after 1.0.
I got URLs to work by creating a .htaccess file in my root bbPress directory with the following:
.htaccess
Options +MultiViews
Works now, though it appears the rc-1.zip file is missing this file.
It’s doesn’t appear the .htaccess file was included because none of my URLs are working for forum posts, etc..
Previosuly, I was running ALPHA 6.
To upgrade, what I did was:
1. Copied my theme directory from /old/bb-templates/mytheme ==> /rc-1/bb-templates/mytheme
2. Copied my bb-config.php from /old/bb-config.php ==> /rc-1/bb-config.php
3. Logged into Admin panel, ran the database update. It was successful.
Cool. Upgrade went easy. Shared login with WP 2.7.1 works. Now to test…
