leoleoleo (and everyone) put this line into bb-config.php (before the “stop editing” part)
$bb->load_options = true;
That should slice at least 100ms off that time and reduce the queries by half. I still don’t understand why it’s not the bbPress default.
“Forum is category” is not needed under bbPress 1.0 which does category forums internally.
Also, the bb-gzip plugin is only necessary if your server does not already compress pages, which is rare these days, so make sure you are not duplicating the effort.
Some of my plugins are still not optimized for 1.0 so they might be slower or cause more queries than under 0.9
Because my bbpress “Page made in 0.317 seconds, 29 queries. ” . I am using bbPress 1.0 Alpha
and installed plugins is
bb-rating
bbPress Polls
BBcode Buttons Toolbar
All Settings
Allow Images
bbPress Web Compression (bb-gzip)
Forum is category
BBPress Private Messaging
BB-Ads

From the FAQ:
serialized and boolean data (true/false) cannot be edited at this time for safety reasons - that may eventually change
Based on that, I don’t think you can, at least not with this version.
Yes, there is an option to change the password. Once you’re logged in, just go to your profile, then Edit, and at the bottom of that page you can enter your new password twice to reset it.
I don’t think you need to reinstall anything. Just log in and access the admin and go to Manage > Forums > Edit (one of your forums) and make sure the forums are not all marked “Category.”
Although it’s easy to just reinstall, if you do things the same way, you’re going to get the same result. You can fix what’s already installed unless something catastrophic happened during installation.
You should still supply your forum address, and the version of bbPress you installed, and if you integrated with WordPress, then that version as well. These things will help someone help you solve your problem.
There is normally a way to add new topics. If that is not present in your installation something is certainly wrong. Can you post the URL to your forum?
Is it possible you have all your forums set as categories? If that’s the case, categories can only hold other forums (subforums) not individual topics. Someone posted about that before.

What version bbPress are you using, and is it integrated with WordPress (and if so, what version WordPress?)
When setting up the ROLE MAP in bbPress, what’s best practice? Should I set WP Admin <-> BB Admin? or WP Admin <-> BB Key Master?
I guess I don’t fully understand the difference between the two.
Ok, the only thing not working is getting the $bbdb is there a way to access the database from outside the bbpress directory?
This is a deeper problem than the role map. If you have users spread across two tables you will never get them to both be able to login.
You need to just use the WordPress user table and migrate any users from the bbPress user table across to it (don’t forget the meta as well.
First just try to get using one set of user data happening. Then try to tackle single login.
We also use bbPress to dabble in some new ideas, as our users are generally very nice and don’t shout at us when we break things.
: )
This is the wp_role_map option from my bb_meta….
a:5:{s:13:”administrator”;s:9:”keymaster”;s:6:”editor”;s:6:”member”;s:6:”author”;s:6:”member”;s:11:”contributor”;s:6:”member”;s:10:”subscriber”;s:6:”member”;}
Thanks for responses. bbPress shows great promise.
Certainly it’s possible to integrate the logins with bbPress, if you want to use a seperate wiki system; all of bbPress’ login functions are replacable. I haven’t heard of anyone doing it for some time, though, but more than a year ago spencerp did it: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mediawiki-bbpress-and-wordpress-integration
This all comes down to the ldap so you are going to have to ask the author directly (apparently Sam who is very busy these days on bbPress 1.0 development) or hope that there are other ldap users who know. Personally I have to go lookup what the heck ldap is in the first place 
I will suggest this much – if you are using 1.0 alpha, the plugin has probably broken compatibility with it and is only meant for 0.9
bbPress is also very young so expectations should not be as high as WordPress (ie. robust plugin library). It’s about equal to WordPress back in 2003. While it benefits from code development on WordPress, it’s still 5 years younger.
But writing plugins for bbPress is as easy for WordPress (and in some cases easier because of improvements over WordPress’s legacy design). I’m definitely an example of this as I had never written a full PHP program or plugin of any kind before my bbPress plugins.
bbPress is designed to be light and extensible. It’s aim is to create a robust framework which can be extended with plugins and themes.
It is designed to be adapted by developers into what they want it to be while it takes care of the core behaviour.
WordPress is very similar in this regard, it just has a much older ecosystem of extensions and a much more active community.
If you upgrade to the latest bbPress trunk you will have access to the new BBXF exporter. There is also a standalone BBXF importer for phpBB, but I have not tested it yet. You will have to do some work to get it running at this early stage of development, this should be a lot easier as we move forward with this idea.

Thanks to GSoC student Dan Larkin for his work over the Summer.
BBXF is now available for review and testing in bbPress trunk and we plan to make it a bundled plugin in bbPress 1.0
Are you looking to incorporate a wiki inside bbPress, or are you looking for a wiki that is about bbPress?
Here’s one about bbPress:
http://bbpulp.org/wiki/Main_Page
I am also having this problem. Unfortunately, the meta_value is already set to the value __ck__ suggests. Any other ideas?
Hi,
like phpBB, i think it is interesting to open a wiki (with dokuwiki? 
)
why? because for example, i have many ideas of plugins, but the documentation is too small for i can understand how to do that 
so, it is possible or not? :p
please please please :p

Thanks for this clarification.. it’s exactly the style of things that are not clearly announced by BBpress.
This forum script is released as a simple, elegant and quick forum not as a set of library for developpers… and viewed this way it’s highly different from WP that is a weblog software for the rest of us, not at all a tool for developers.
Hopefully, thanks to “magic _ck_” and the marvelous plug in he provide to the BBPress comunity, the set of library starts slowly to get a new face, the one of a classical good forum software…
For me it’s clear – bbPress puts user first, but it sucks without developer – I’m talking about board developer, not script developers . Someone need to set up forum first, and he is using this great engine-core as I’m calling it with additional plugins he need – if one is creating forum for php coders, then he don’t need bbcode or any form of editor, as users will know stuff. This forum for example don’t need editor because its target is people who are developing using bbPress.
For me, it’s a library of functions ready to set up a great, huge and fast forum – if you want a board like “set up and forget about it” then go and use phpbb3 – huge, slow with thousands of useless options. But if you’re a developer, then there’s nothing better than bbPress for you.
