I tried installing 0.9.0.3, and it failed at step 4 with a bunch of errors like:
bbPress database error: [Table ‘forums.bb_topicmeta’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT * FROM bb_topicmeta WHERE topic_id = 0 AND meta_key = ‘name’
This is because in an earlier step it failed to create the tables due to lack of permissions. It should have caught it then, not when it tried to insert.
I tried installing 0.9.0.3, but I got the message telling me I had an old config.php. I didn’t – my config was named bb-config.php. It turned out the problem was that I was installing bbpress into a subdirectory of my phpBB forums, and it was looking at the config.php for phpBB. I don’t think that’s right. Here was my directory structure:
- /config.php (for phpBB)
- /bbpress/
- bb-config.php
- bb-admin/, etc
When I renamed my phpBB config.php to config2.php, I was allowed to proceed with installation.
Integration doesn’t seem to be working for me. I followed the screencast, but for some reason when I sign into my WP it signs me OUT of my bbPress. And vice-versa. And I can’t use my Key Master account to sign-in to WP admin.
I cut out a lot of code from the original template to get things looking the way I wanted. Any ideas as to what I removed that is causing this, or at least which file I should restore?
I checked my database and topic_open is open.
When will we see a mass edit users function in bbPress? Can someone make a plugin?
I agree I didnt have any issues with 0.9.0.3 and 2.7 It is stated if you want to run bbpress on a live site you need to go with the stable version.
I am using bbPress 0.9.0.3 with WP 2.7 and users are integrated, only cookies (logins) are not. I even have the UserPhoto plugin working fine on bbP and WP.
Simultaneous logins were not of great importance to me and for that reason I chose to install the stable 0.9.0.3
I’m about to run this script. THANK YOU! So for the md5 hashing plugin, do we need to install that after we convert? Or?
I wonder if it’s because of the integration between themes or with WordPress functions conflicting with bbPress functions? These versions are not *supposed* to work when integrated; maybe this is one of the problems.
If you have access to the database, look at the bb_topics table for a field called topic_open which should be 1 for open or 0 for closed. I’m curious what the value is for the first topic.
I was able to successfully able to add a new topic with the default theme. I do have access to the database, though I’m not sure what to look for or where to begin.
Do you have access to the database where you can check to see the status of the topic, if it’s open or closed? Or maybe it’s not even looking at the proper table?
I created a separate database for bbPress with separate users.
You somehow changed your wordpress settings to look at the users in the new, blank, bbpress install. Therefore noone can login. The wrong cookies aren’t helping.
You need to delete bbpress and change your wordpress wp-config.php to point back to the user table in the old wordpress database.
Looks like creating a new topic results in the error message, but replying to an existing topic works fine. I tried to create a new topic and got the error, but I was able to reply to the existing topic.
I also registered at the forum, not the blog, even though there was no register link there.
Have you tried this with the default theme? Maybe something with the theme integration is causing the problem.
Akismet isn’t activated on my forum. Do I have any options?
Did you try what Trent suggested?
Also, WordPress 2.7 does not integrate with bbPress 0.9.*
I’m using bbPress 0.9.0.2. Yes it is integrated with my WordPress 2.7 blog. No active plugins at the moment.
Hi!
I was trying to show the latest threads when you get a bbpress 404 page.
I just copied front-page.php code into 404.php template but it didn’t show anything 
Why?
Login as a keymaster as well and check if there is anything in the akismet queue. It will show topics closed if you are logged in as a user that akismet picked up as spam sometimes.
Reading https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/71562 I can’t say are you “tag spammer” or not 
I wish it was mentioned in one of the steps of installation process. What can I do now to fix my WordPress?
None of the authors and administrators can login to their account. The admin area is completely inaccessible.
Actually it’s a lot easier to figure out who made the tag than you seem to think.
ID’s are set in every single tag. <li id="tag-85_71562">tags</li>
Go to https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/71562 and you’ll see that I added a tag 
Easy as pie to see I’m a spammer
OK let have one bad guy and one good admin. How admin can identify and fight this bad guy without PHP or SQL knowledge?
chrishajer, I will explain with your own words “The member id is recorded in the database when the tag is added, so if it’s a member doing inappropriate tagging, you can deal with them individually.”
But in other point of view bbpress admin/key master MUST know PHP & SQL because of undeleteing “deleted” topics and posts.
WordPress 2.6 does not integrate with 0.9.0.3.
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101
Do NOT try to integrate WordPress 2.6 with bbPress 0.9 – only use WP 2.5.1 – the reason for this is simple – WordPress has radically changed the way cookies are used.
Are you using any plugins?
What version bbPress did you install? Is it integrated with your WordPress 2.7 installation (user logins I mean)?
