1. Please post a link to your forum so we can take a look.
2. No styling usually means the path to the stylesheet is wrong. You can look in the source of the HTML to see that.
3. Redirecting is probably because you have true or slugs for your permalinks setting, but you haven’t set up permalinks yet. You can set the permalinks to false to get the forum working right now, then take the next step and make permalinks work.
https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks
Either that, or the stylesheet is really not there at the URL you tried, and WordPress is intercepting that and sending you to 404 page.
You want to remove the max width of the whole admin section? In my installation, the admin section appears to be at max width already (my monitor is at 1280px wide right now.) It doesn’t look like there’s any restriction, unless it shows up at wider than 1280px. Did you look at the css for the admin section?
~/bbpress/bb-admin/style.css
The closest thing I know of is “Comment Quicktags”:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/quicktags-4-bbpress/
I think a WYSIWYG editor would be overkill since a lot of the markup is not allowed by default. I suppose you could disable the buttons that use non-valid markup.
Or, these forum posts:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-added-wysiwyg-to-my-bbpress
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-wysiwyg-status
“set certain users to moderate only certain sections,”
I just realized I completely forgot about this plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-moderators/
which does exactly that

@ sambauers: Ok — good to know 
So I’ve moved the bbpress files over to
http://mysite.com/forums
And now things seem to look better. I can see the admin page for bbpress.
However, now it seems that a link to the forum stylesheet is broken. When I look at http://mysite.com/forms, I see the forum homepage, but with no CSS styling. Then, when I click on to view a forum topic, like http://mysite.com/forums/topic/test-topic, I seem to get redirected to my blog’s homepage. I’m confused!
Sorry for all the novice questions! Your help is much appreciated.
I’ll take a look 
If i want to contribute patches, i just upload them to trac ?? I use Eclipse, should i just use the “Create Patch” option?
(sorry, i’ve never used trac nor created patches :p)

Edit: i’m installing it, trying to integrate with WP. I entered all values, but at the end bbPress created a new user table, ignoring the wp_users table.
bbPress will never have a feature like that built-in.
You shouldn’t be installing bbPress in the WordPress plugin folder.
It’s not a plugin.
bbPress will probably be used to augment BuddyPress’ groups with forums. It’s a complimentary product, not a replacement.
What do you think about integrate the private message by default?

The files are located in wp-content/plugins/plugins/bbpress
I’d like to switch my settings to point back to this directory, but can’t find a way to do this.
Thanks for your help!
I work with bbPress 0.9.
Been trying for hours to get this SQL into a view?
How should the array for bb_register_view() look like?
SELECT bbt.*, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM bb_ratings WHERE topic_id=bbt.topic_id) AS counts
FROM bb_topics bbt, bb_ratings bbr
WHERE bbt.forum_id = 2 AND bbt.topic_status = 0
GROUP BY bbt.topic_id
ORDER BY counts DESC
Hello,
i think the design of the dashboard can be more beautiful.. and i think the little box we have before is more great (i speak about the home of dashboard).
And for the plugins, can we have a system like WP 2.6? (with a button “desactive all” and chekboxes, etc…)
And it is possible to have Google Gears in bbPress in future? :p
bye 
and thank you for the very good job!
hello, i have do that, and i have the buttons at the bottom of the textarea 
So, how to habe the buttons in top?
And the code producted is <p>TEST</p> , how to fix that?
bye,
and i think it is great if the tinymce is integrated in bbpress, like an option for example
Hello,
i want to add at bbPress the 100% width in admin, like this plugin for wordpress:
So, the code is:
add_filter('tiny_mce_before_init', 'rmw_tinymce');
function rmw_tinymce($init){
$init = true;
return $init;
}
add_action(‘admin_head’,’rmw_head’,99); //Hook late after all css has been done
function rmw_head(){
global $is_IE; ?>
<style type=”text/css” media=”all”>
.wrap,
.updated,
.error,
.widefat,
#the-comment-list td.comment {
max-width: none !important;
}
<?php if( $is_IE ){ ?>
* html #wpbody {
_width: 99.9% !important;
}
<?php } ?>
</style>
<?php } ?>
but not works for bbPress… what can i do for the plugin works?
bye
yes, it works now, but the adress of the site is not show at the end of install 
bye
What role *exactly* do you want to give to multiple people?
In the Admin section > Users, there is a drop down on each user’s “profile> edit” page where you can select the role for them. My installation shows:
- Keymaster
- Administrator
- Moderator
- Member
- Inactive
- Blocked
There was also a plugin for forum-specific moderation and I’m not sure if it works with the latest release.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-moderators/
I imagine it’s possible with a plugin.
This would be pretty close.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-moderation-hold/#post-245
It holds the post for moderation. You could probably modify it to not hold for moderation, or if nothing else use the same filters and actions for your own plugin to just email on a new post or topic.
I suggest anyone trying to integrate bbPress with WordPress should read the sticky at the top of the forum.
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101
It’s in there, very first post.

During step 3 of the installation process, I accidentally inputted the wrong URL for my forum.
It asked me for the Site address (URL), which was defaulted to:
http://mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/
I changed this to
http://mysite.com/forums/
Now I can’t access the forums at all, and I can’t figure out how to change the URL back. I looked at bb-config.php, but didn’t see any way to fix this.
I’m not good with PHP and I’m new to WordPress in general, so any novice advice would be much appreciated!
It’s definitely not ready for production use but the 1.0 alpha in the trunk is looking really good. Sam (and MDA) have been hard at work.
Looks a great deal like WordPress behind the scenes – I mean the new 2.5-2.6 look with rounded everything – but in our familiar and sharp looking green.
BackPress is now powering it which should unify us with WordPress more than ever before and accelerate feature development.
Hey it’s got a dashboard like WordPress now!
[screenshot]
I also see they added Display Names to bbPress.

This actually is to my dismay but I guess other people may like them. (Personally for me it will be the first thing I disable – nothing but trouble with pesky childish users).
It also has categories built in: [screenshot]
If you are a power user and know what you are doing, give it a try in a test environment – do NOT overwrite an existing install, it’s not stable yet. Sam says they could use some testing bug reports on TRAC for it.
ps. even more good news is that many of my plugins seem to work hassle-free on it…
I’ve confirmed the newest trunk build now fixes this problem (at least for me)
build # 1598
My guess is that you didn’t specify a charset collation for the database on install.
I’ve just made a change that should fix your problem (if that was it).
