currently i have bbpress hosted on godaddy but users complaint that the site is slow and when i go to godadday they say it is because of the coding of the site and so on. so is that true?
Perhaps there is a way.
This guy;

integrated wp 2.6.3 with bbpress;
meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.6.3"
We are missing something.
I need an overview of the different user roles in bbPress. E.g. what is the “Key Manager” and what is the difference between him an the “Administrator”?
I can’t seem to find anything in the documentation. Can anybody help with this?
Yes when you rebuild PHP to a new version you must rebuild the eaccelerator module, that’s a good tip.
Also sometimes after a rebuild you need to clear the eaccelator disk cache which is usually stored in tmp or you might have specified somewhere else in the php.ini settings.
techypenguin, mysql speed is not related to eaccelerator but mysql’s own cache.
If you are going by the time showed inside bbpress pages, that’s misleading as it shows the number of queries but the entire page generation time, not mysql query time. If you want to see the breakdown, install my bb-benchmark plugin.
I recently ran into a problem with eaccelerator installed from source:
When you update PHP, Apache will not restart since eaccelerator was compiled with an earlier version of PHP, and Apache can’t load the eaccelerator.so binary. If Apache won’t start, maybe this is why. Apache didn’t give any good messages at all, but php -m on the command line showed a problem with the eaccelerator binary being compiled for an earlier version of PHP. So, just recompile, reinstall and restart Apache.
Hope that helps someone.
I’m a big fan (and now a Facebook fan) of bbPress and don’t want to come off as ungrateful. But I’m definitely concerned about how long it’s taking to get WordPress integration going. Am I wrong in assuming it would be one of the highest priorities?
Sambauers agrees with you. How do I know? #1007
I’ll take a crack at this!
1) I’m not sure about this, but if it doesn’t exist then I’m pretty sure it can be added through a plugin.
2) The “bb-attachments” plugin allows users to upload images and other files: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/
3) I was able to match the look of my WordPress blog to my bbPress forums pretty easily
4) There’s a five star rating plugin here: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-ratings/
I’m a big fan of bbPress, and have been using it for over a year. There are some people who have mixed feelings on bbPress though – you can read about that here:

I haven’t had problems integrating signin or matching my theme. However, I have a site with one WordPress install and three bbPress installs, all using a shared users table… and each system has its own profile link. I hear that BackPress should solve this eventually (a single profile system that will integrate across multiple installs like this), so I’m sticking with the *Press platform for now. But it’s been my biggest issue so far, so thought I’d share in case it’s something you need right away.
Good luck!
Hey all,
So I’ve been checking out various forums to use for my business’ site, and I’ve got it paired down to bbPress and Vanilla. I’m leaning towards bbPress, but I have a few questions that I’m seeking answers to first. If anyone can help me out, it would be greatly appreciated!
(1) Is it available either by default or a plug-in to allow users to post <embed> or <object> snippets to show Flash files?
(2) Is there a plug-in available to allow image uploading to our server, or are all the ways to get an image to display within a thread by bb [img]code or the “Allow Images” plug-in?
(3) Would you consider bbPress’ theme customization to be about as equal (or easier) than WordPress’?
(4) Are there plug-ins to allow for either digg-style voting or normal 5-star voting? Being able to host community-driven contests is important for this project.
Thanks a lot in advance. One of the reasons I always use WordPress for my projects is because the community is one of the best on the Web, so I hope it rubs off a little bit for bbPress! Thanks again!
tht tutorial sure helped me.thanks _ck_. last time i check the speed for mysql is 0.005sec before installing eaccelerator. how about win server?any good?
If the user is not logged in on to bbpress 9.0.2, “add new” option should not be available for him.I hope this feature would be taken care in higher versions.
Its great idea to have sub forums. I agree that bbpress does not have an option for hidden forums, but the discussions can be locked and pinned up for limited conversations.
The admin page on your WordPress side (www.mysite.com/blog/wp-admin/options.php) should be the same userid / password you use to administer wordpress.
Hi,
I thought I would post this to just show off and see it their are any bugs people can spot (particularly design tweaks on various browsers and OS).

It utilises the standard BBpress header and footer with the rest being hacked about a bit with numerous plugins installed.
Hi,
I am trying to add a bbpress forum to my WP blog.
In the settings -> wordpress integration section of my bb dashboard it requires a WP database secret. There is already some data in that box, but below it says;
‘This must match the value of the WordPress setting named “secret” in your WordPress installation. Look for the option labeled “secret” in this WordPress admin page.’
And when I follow the link to the admin page I am asked for a username and password, but it doesn’t seem to recognise any that I put in, so I don’t know how I am able to check that the values match.
Also, how can I create a link to the forum in the sidebar of my blog?
Any help much appreciated!
I don’t think the Facebook page setup stole any time away from bbPress development.
I’m a big fan (and now a Facebook fan) of bbPress and don’t want to come off as ungrateful. But I’m definitely concerned about how long it’s taking to get WordPress integration going. Am I wrong in assuming it would be one of the highest priorities?
I recognize WordPress has been in a state of flux regarding logins and I likely don’t know all the deep developer details, but it’s getting difficult to maintain confidence in the project. Will the 2.7 release make things any easier?
Not currently without removing the integration in your config file. WordPress is conflicting with the roles inside bbPress, so even though you’re logged in, WordPress’s login has given you no permissions in the forum.
How to install eaccelerator onto debian with PHP5
http://www.howtoforge.com/eaccelerator_php5_debian_etch
(should be similar or even easier for PHP4)
Apache, both 1 and 2 are based on old slow code. You can spend hours fiddling with performance settings and barely fix the problem. They don’t do well for very active sites and apache can be easily ddos’ed. You can either throw more hardware at the problem or replace apache when the loads get too high.
LiteSpeed is literally twice as fast/half the load as apache (it’s also a bit expensive for the commercial version but there is a 5 account version available for free). Additionally it can plow through many kinds of ddos attacks. It’s a piece of cake to install and configure (GUI based).
The free Nginx is also twice as fast as Apache but LiteSpeed can use Apache’s httpd.conf and .htaccess files so it’s very easy to install (10 minutes tops) and you can even switch back to Apache if so desired. Nginx requires a complete rewrite of any mod_rewrite rules, etc. and requires technical skill to install/operate.
Matt is slowly converting some of Automattic’s server from LiteSpeed to Nginx to keep the ideals of open source but LiteSpeed is still too good and has no serious competition as far as compatibility so I bet he will probably continue to run it on some servers for years.
As far as opcode caches I am surprised you had trouble with eaccelerator which tends to be the most compatible/easiest to install. APC does have some quirks but it’s being adopted by PHP and may become “built in” in some future version.
Hi!
I tried to integrate wp27final and bbpress 1.02a. I installed bbpress, followed the integration steps during installation, then changed bb-config.php with this code;
define('WP_BB', true);
if ( !defined('DB_NAME') ) {
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-config.php');
}
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // your wordpress db prefix is
$bb->wp_home = 'http://myhost.com';
$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://myhost.com';
…and I’ve found several issues, the first one the no admin panel issue already discussed in this forum, but the fact is that I have no “Add new” link when logged in as user different to admin. Besides, I have no post form when logged in as admin and click “Add new”.
I can’t go further with my integration but I like how bbpress is being developed, it is pretty fast and simple, just what I needed. Is there any way I can solve these issues?
I’ve tried eaccelerator and xcache but it seems not compatible with my current debian setup. i have purge the installation back. i haven’t try APC yet. gonna try this in couple of hour. why bbpress.org use litespeed instead of apache?even other big site too dont use apache2. from what i’ve seen, apache2 have more function than apache1 and easy to use too..

Maybe at wordpress.org, eh?

OK – now I understand the question – sorry.
We are using 0.9.0.3, because this is a live site.
The look-alike version is available here: http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/available-themes (half way down page).
