it was just after installing bbpress for the first time
The intended URL is where you expect to access the forum on the internet. Maybe this would be a good place for it:
http://affluentdiva.com/forums/
The way you have the folders now, it would be this:
http://affluentdiva.com/bbpress2008/bbpress/ which looks a little silly. You don’t need that bbpress2008 folder there. And maybe you don’t want the other folder to be called bbpress. What if you change forum software in the future? Better to use forum or forums instead.
I don’t think iframes work very will with bbPress. Are you trying to put the forum in an iframe?
<frameset rows="100%,*" border="0" frameborder="no" framespacing="0">
<frame name="site" src="http://hlvdubs.iamanerd.org.uk/forum" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" noresize scrolling="auto">
<noframes>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
I think this is part or all of the problem. Don’t try to access bbPress from an iframe. You’ve got two different domains going on there.
There is a sitemap plugin for bbPress:
http://boakes.org/download/bbpress_sitemap.txt
This is old and I can’t find a link to it on the author’s site any more, but there it is.
After installing bbpress I was able to sign in to bbpress with my regular admin info but something has happened with my wordpress backend now that it does say I’m logged in but I cannot get to the admin area. Any suggestions on how I can resolve this issue without completely reinstalling both WP & BP
Hello
I’ve uploaded the uncompress file to my home/XXXX/bbpress2008/bbpress
and when it says go to your intented url – what is my intended url?
New to this so please bare with me….thanks
Very nice integration of the theme.
I noticed you are using WordPress 2.6. If someone logs in to WordPress or bbPress, are they logged in on the other (either bbPress or WordPress)? That is the level of integration most people are looking for, in addition to theme integration, and the latest word was that integration with WordPress 2.6 does not work. How did you do it?
You don’t really need a plugin to install Google Analytics in your bbPress forum. Just paste the code from Google Analytics right before the closing </body> tag in your theme’s footer.php. No plugin required. I never understood the need for Analytics plugins for WordPress either. Editing a template file is pretty basic.
OK, please let us know if you need more help.
I couldn’t tell you, but I am using bbPress 0.9.0.2 and WordPress 2.5.1.
I am going to update to 2.6 and see how it goes…
Hello,
A naïve question :
I use another forum script and would like to prepare a migration to BBpress when BBpres is ready for real use
If i integrate BBpress alpha 1.0 with my WP 2.6 (check, learn, but don’t put it in use yet by my uers) am I at risk to break something in my WP install (tables ?)
So can I safely (for the WP part) integrate a BBpress alpha 1.0 with a WP 2.6 ?
Just integrated by BBPress install with my WordPress install. Thanks for the help on here too!

i have just installed bbpress and i have a problem the site is here http://www.hlvdubs.co.uk/forum
the install worked fine, but it wont let me login and there is no theme!
whats going on?
Not working for me with bbpress 0.9.0.2.
I’ve installed in my-plugins foolder, I can activate in plugins administration but I can’t see the analytics configuration page.
Thanks chrishajer.
That seems to have done the job and bbPress is now installed. But I do find that I am denied access to certain pages. I will see how this proceeds.
Because of the radical change in how topicmeta and bb_options are now stored, a few of my plugins will not work properly under 1.0 alpha until I figure out a work-around:
My-Views (most/least views tracking, some statistics)
mini-track
all-settings <<– now updated to support 1.0
(there may be others, tba)
Also note there is a drop in meta db performance under 1.0 vs. 0.9 because of how forum meta is appended in multiple queries and that more than one index (as needed by design) cannot be used in mysql on the bb_meta table.
There is also an issue of the meta table being checked on every page load to see if it needs to be upgraded – that part will probably be fixed in a later release.
Sorry, fresh out of ideas after that. I suspect that bbPress needs to be reinstalled after downgrading WordPress, but I don’t know why that failed for you.
I tried re-installing bbpress, but after I got past the first step (inserting the bbpress database info), it brings me to the forum home page. I cannot log in using any of the user id’s.
Does bbPress need to be ‘reinstalled’ after going backwards to WordPress 2.5.1? Like, if the bbPress installation made changes to the database with WordPress 2.6, then you rolled back to WordPress 2.5.1, you would lose the changes that bbPress made to the wp_users and wp_usermeta table, right? Would you need to reintegrate with the WordPress 2.5.1 database?
I suspect you could do it. Of all the forum software I have used, it’s easiest to get ‘under the hood’ of bbPress and make the changes you need. I have no idea how to start, but I bet it’s possible with bbPress.
Probably not. The database structure has changed a bit.
If you want to test it out on your current site, it would be best to test it out on a copy of your current database.
if i upgrade to the alpha, can I downgrade to the stable release?
peace
If I try and create a new user, I get the error:
Warning: mysql_insert_id(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/turner/public_html/lifelightcam/bbpress/bb-includes/db-mysql.php on line 180"
I can log into wordpress just fine with my user id and password, but not into bbpress. I checked and the user id does exist in wp_users
Hello 
I presently use a framework called CakePHP for my website. I have an existing users data model etc., that consists of many tables and so forth. It’d be a hassle for my users to have to set up a whole new account.
So, I was wondering if bbPress is by any chance customizable to the extent of database structure and basically the way databases are treated. I guess I’m looking for the most customizable forum script right now.
So can it seamlessly integrate with existing data, besides WordPress?
