I can’t recall if that’s built in or not, but there was a plugin that allowed something similar:

Yah “Downloads per week” are displayed here:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/
In any case, it’s more of an optics thing – I just worry that having the stats continually say “Coming Soon” hurts the credibility of the site.
mizparker, you don’t have any idea how many people have that same problem. Either switch to php5 or wait for the next version of bbPress.
Actually, BuddyPress uses bbPress, so it could be argued that bbPress is a modification for BuddyPress.
BuddyPress is a modification for WordPress MU.
plop, are you using integration? If so, what versions of bbPress and WordPress are you using, and what are their URLs?
What versions of bbPress and WordPress are you using?
I still didn’t find a way to resolve this, it’s really weird.
I can access to the bbpress functions on my wp template now with no problem, but my wp admin section is still “broken” (no css, no jquery)
It’s on localhost unfortunately
Had the same problem, just logged out and logged in again but in the bbpress admin section solved the problem.
Have you asked Godaddy?
Also, Google returned quite a few results, but I am not certain exactly where you are seeing this problem to know what results are relevant.
And finally, is this a WordPress or bbPress problem?
Please post a link to your site and someone should be able to help.
So, what does your bb-config.php look like?
Also, this happened to me recently due to something completely stupid that I did. I was trying to solve a connection problem (connecting Navicat to the database through an SSH tunnel) and I reset my MySQL password with phpMyAdmin to be certain I was using a valid password. I forget that I had also used that account for the database connection in bb-config.php as well. So, I noticed later that bbPress stopped working with that same exact error.
It would be worthwhile to try connecting to the database with the details that are currently in the bb-config.php to see if the connection details still work.
Hi guys. I’m currently trying out the 1a6 release however when I attempt to delete any tag from a post I get a message stating: “Your attempt to remove this tag from this topic has failed. Please try again.”
I have tried this with multiple tags. Is this a unique bug or are others having the same issue?
I think you have to add it at the bottom of your wp-config file.

I installed bbpress about a week ago and it was running fine until yesterday when it started returning this message when you go to the site:
Oh Dear!
An invalid configuration file was found at bb-config.php
The installation cannot continue.
Usually this is caused by one of the database connection settings being incorrect. Make sure that the specified user has appropriate permission to access the database.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. Mike
I think BuddyPress is the best modification for bbPress.
Currently the bbpress sign in page is site.com/forum
I want to change *just* the login page. So when someone comes to site.com/forum, I want it appear blank and the actual login page is site.com/aforum where users can see the login fields. The rest of the urls can be the same.
Any way to to this?
Alternatively, can I re-locate the forum to a new url say /aforum very easily?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I’ve just installed bbpress and the forum seemed to be working ok until…..
Does anyone have any idea why I get the 404 error message when I click on my profile on the forum?
Any help much appreciated. http://theatreteam.co.uk/bbpress
As long as they all point to the same user table and usermeta table, you can share the login across as many domains as you’d like, the cookies simply won’t be sync’d (however I have a plugin coming out soon that will share cookies across domains, but it’s not meant for wpmu, just regular wp/bbpress).
Database secret is covered near the start of this topic, it’s hidden in your bb/wp admin menus.
Hello,
I would like to know if this still is in effect.
1. In simple terms, can I use the BBpress theme ?
2. Is it available for download like it is right now?
Looks good!! 
A word of warning: I used to use the Private Forums plugin, until one day the posts in the private forum suddenly became publicly readable to everyone! It actually happened to me 2x before I realized it wasn’t just a fluke. A number of other users reported similar problems:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/private-forums/page/4/#post-1621
I’ve had a lot more success using Hidden Forums:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/hidden-forums/
I’ve had that installed for a few months now, and it’s been rock solid.
