Do you have a role mapping setup in bbPress? It should at least work in one direction. Unless I broke it worse with the fix.
The PHP warning is also fixed in trunk.
The upgrade page is generally only triggered when visiting the admin area, and only if the database needs upgrading (i.e. the db version number has changed)
Installation issue is fixed in trunk. Need some time to debug the auto-role-assignment issues.
Helloo,
I upgraded to alpha5 (through svn) and no problem (except the login problem I have since a few releases : I can be logged in WP OR in BBpress but not in both at the same time, if I log in in one I’m logged out on the other..)
@johnjamesjacoby, I get the exact same problem. I cannot get a role assigned to my users at all! And it’s really frustrating. I create a user in BBPress and no role assigned in WordPress. User created in WordPress and no role assigned in BBPress. I have the exact same problem as you.
I am comparing the two right now to see if I deleted something important. Do you know which php file I should be looking in? I did not integrate the forum with WordPress and am using the latest version of bbPress (I just installed it a few days ago). The only plugins I am using is the Akismet plugin. I guess I must have deleted something although I’m not sure what!
@segwayinfo: Last night was supposed to be “Install WPMU, BudyPress and bbPress” night for me. Oh well. 
Based on Scoun theme from Mike Lothar.
Plugins used:
– Akismet
– Human Test for bbPress
– bbpress SEO tools
– Allow Images

@Jeff: Same problem here.
A little bit frustrating, installing BuddyPress, which needs bbpress. I guess we will have to wait for an fix.
Also, when I register a new user through WordPress as per normal, that user is still not assigned a role in bbPress. Not when they login, not when they hit the forum for the first time. Not ever.
My Steps:
- I used a Chrome browser window to register a new user through WordPress
- Logged in via WordPress
- Hit the forum
- User could not post, looks like has no role
- Logged out via WordPress
- Used FireFox to login as admin to check new user role
- No Role Assigned
- Used Chrome to login through bbPress
- Hit the forum
- User could not post, looks like has no role
- Used Firefox admin to edit Test user
- Received typical error message (noted below)
Warning: array_key_exists() [function.array-key-exists]: The second argument should be either an array or an object in /forums/bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php on line 2009
Basically it looks like the exact same error message as before, with the same circumstances.
Round two using alpha 5 trunk from the SVN went exactly the same way, only this time when I logged in via bbPress, the above Warning went away, but that user is still marked as Inactive by default when they should be a Member according to the role map.
When registering through bbPress, the new user still is not assigned a Role on the WordPress side either.
Sam, can you explain to me what was supposed to be different in alpha5? Maybe I misunderstood…
Hi, just FYI, I’m getting the same fatal error on a fresh install out of SVN. No previous version of bbPress installed.

When I renamed my old config file, I actually received the same error.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function backpress_get_option() in /forum/bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php on line 412
So I renamed my config file back, visited the forum, and then it prompted me for upgrade.
Is there a specific upgrade page to visit now rather than just hitting the root of the forum?
Sam, it seems this only happens when I upgrade from alpha4 to alpha5. I was running a trunk version, and received no errors and wasn’t even prompted to upgrade from trunk to 5.
I just received this error on the install screen just after it tells you it cannot find a config file. I changed my old one to config.old.php (received error) then to bb-config.old.php. (received error)
Fatal error: Call to undefined function backpress_get_option() in /nfs/c03/h04/mnt/57391/domains/willclan4food.net/html/bbpress/bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php on line 412
I then just had a funny feeling so I just changed the file name back to bb-config.php and when I went to my forums it said I needed a update.. updated and all seems well.
This weeknd I plan on loading bbPress into some kind of IDE (probably eclipse) so I’m able to check this type of thing out a little further. I’ll update here if I can get them.
Looking forward to this Sam. Thanks again for the fast updates. Will check it out tonight and report back asap.
@asymmetrik
Roles are only applied by bbPress to users who are missing roles in the DB completely. It doesn’t try to keep them in synch beyond the initial setting of the role. This is intentional as the alternative is far too restrictive in most cases.
See the blog post here:
Two new bbPress releases
These both contain security updates, so are recommended for all users.
I’m looking at trying this with http://www.theblog.ca/wordpress-case-insensitive-login but … yeah, can we sanitize for bbpress too?
Hello,
I’ve created the Ukrainian translation for bbpress, it’s here:
http://myserver.com.ua/bbpress-ukrainian-localization.html
Ok… so far I am on the bbPress side.
Will bbPress be able to handle large forums?
Wow. I wish I had known that a few hours ago.
.htaccess probably just needs to be 0644 permissions (-rw-r–r–). Did you set up permalinks with rewrite rules as described here? bbPress does not write the .htaccess file in the same way that WordPress does (i.e. when you change WordPress permalink settings, it changes or creates the .htaccess file for you, with the proper rules.)

Update: it looks like you are installing again? This page gives a 404:
http://www.greenfitnessworld.com/bbpress/
This page shows that installation is not complete:
http://www.greenfitnessworld.com/forum/
Once your installation is complete, you’re going to want to go here to create the rules which you will paste into .htaccess: http://www.greenfitnessworld.com/forum/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php
