This is the problem right here:
<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>
bloginfo is a WordPress function, but you’re in bbPress. Try hard coding it like this <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> as it is in the default theme, and I think you will find that it works.
Did my attempt to integrate WP and bbP change my WP-tables in the database?
I tried unsuccessfully to install bbPress again but got the same warning. Now I deleted all tables from my database, both WP and bbP and deleted all program files also. I will make a new try tomorrow but without any attempt to integration. I will install WP and import posts from the exportfile I made before deleting the database.
Any other suggestions?
Hey everyone, I’m new here. I’ve found out about this awesome forum a while back but didn’t have the time to make a forum for my site. Anyhoo, I was wondering if bbPress could be integrated with Social Engine. I know integration with vBulletin and phpBB is possible but bbPress seems much more superior. 
This is getting to complicated for me. I have given up trying to integrate WP and bbPress. But I still want to try get them look similar. So I deleted my bbPress-tables from the database and deleted all the bbPress-files and started new.
But got new problems, when the installation was made I got a warning:
Warning: getmypid() has been disabled for security reasons in /data/members/paid/e/n/enkelwebbplats.se/htdocs/www/forum/bb-includes/class-phpass.php on line 43
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /data/members/paid/e/n/enkelwebbplats.se/htdocs/www/forum/bb-includes/class-phpass.php:43) in /data/members/paid/e/n/enkelwebbplats.se/htdocs/www/forum/bb-includes/functions.php on line 2258
I only understand that this relates to passwords and when I tried to log I could not and got a not exact but similar warning and could not log in. I tried to register but the password I was given did not work.
I am getting frustrated. Now I cannot create a non-integrated forum. Please, please help!!!

I just realised that you may not have a language file for bbPress installed at all. bbPress does not come with any language files by default. You need to download them separately and follow the instructions in the bb-config.php file about where to put them.
The language file you are after should be here…

Been having some strange issues I am ironing out (really need a content importer for bbPress soon ** 
but the link is being fixed on that post as well:

Thank you for answering! I am afraid I do not understand what you are writing. I do not think I am loading (I am not quite sure what that means) WP into bbP, I just want to integrate in such a way that a reader do not have to login twice to comment on the we site and also in the forum. So my plan is to change the look (skin) of bbPress to be like my WP. I understand this is better from a performance view.
I do not understand what merging of the language files means and how to do it. Please elaborate!
My aim is to make my forum look like my web site. I succeded to a small degree by creating a header that is the same as for my web site. Unfortunately it meant that the layout of the forum changed in a way I do not know how to fix. At http://www.goranlindgren.se/forum/ you can see how far I came. The header is ok but the rest of the page got changed in unexpected ways. My plan was to use the header but have the forum look more like another forum I have at http://www.32astolf.se/forum/
Advice on how to proceed is most welcome!
There are a few other bbPress installtions in Swedish but they also cannot handle Swedish names. There must be many other languages with non-English characters. How do they handle it?
Are you loading WordPress inside bbPress? If so the textdomain does not get loaded due to the fact that it is called “default” like the WordPress one.
If you merge the language files of WordPress and bbPress and load it in WordPress it should work.
I wouldn’t recommend doing that, so I won’t add it to the documentation. WP tends to stomp on stuff that bbPress needs. I’ve had a project on the back-burner for a while now that will eventually allow what you are after. But it’s not ready yet.
Integrating won’t merge your user tables for you. De-duplicating that data is up to you.
Well,
The next thing that is supposed to come up, I think, is this:
text/html; charset=utf-8
Maybe whatever is providing that has an error and is causing this problem.
Are you using a stock theme, and if not, does changing it back to stock fix this error? My guess is this is something in the template file, or the config.
Are you using a different language file? (I’m guessing not, based on the blog.)
Or, is it possible not everything was uploaded properly? Some things I would expect to be in that directory are not present when accessed directly by URL. Can you confirm that a new bbPress 0.9.0.2 archive and your server have the same exact files?
For the first error, I think in 0.8.3.1 it is looking for an underscore plugin, but you have none in the plugin folder any more, and it errors out.
This is line 169 from bb-settings.php:
foreach ( glob(BBPLUGINDIR . '_*.php') as $_plugin )
I would create a blank php file called _nothing.php (nothing in the file at all) and put that in your plugin directory. The name of the file does not matter, except it needs to begin with an underscore. The contents of the file don’t matter either. We just want something for bbPress to see in that directory so it does not fail. That should prevent the first error. I think it will actually take care of the second error as well. It’s also related to having no underscore plugins in the plugin directory.
Thanks for posting your bbPress versions: it was invaluable in finding the right line numbers and relevant code.
Hey, I’m using bbPress and i’m happy with it, have a lot of work left though :]
But… Something that is weird, i’m logged in as the admin and i tried to change a user to a Moderator, but i can only do it sometimes. Now i just get “Invalid Role” for some reason.
(sorry for bad grammar)
Hi, everyone,
I’m trying to deactivate my plugins to upgrade my bbPress from 0.8.3.1 to 0.9.0.2. On my admin interface there’s no activate/deactivate button. It’s been a while since I installed them, but I guess I only needed to upload the plugin to my plugins folder and that’s it. So I just deleted the plugins from my-plugins folder. I thought it was going to uninstall them, however the forum stops working and I get the following messages:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/wordpres/public_html/forum/bb-settings.php on line 169
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/wordpres/public_html/forum/bb-admin/plugins.php on line 7
Am I doing something wrong?
thanks in advance.

Hi there everybody,
I am new to bbPress and would like to know a few things before I start to hopefully use it with sites. The main thing I need to know is that can you make it so that some threads/topics etc. can only been seen by certain users?
there are different type of user group exist in the bbpress.
how could i control / edit there purview in the bbpress for each group
for example, how could i control the “delete purview” for each user group?
if there are need a plugin to realize, which plugin should i install?
if the plugin does not exist, how could i develop it in a esay way?
how could i get the document about the development?
thanks for your reply:)
I’ve integrated bbpress with upgraded version of WP (just upgraded to v 2.5.1) and everything seemed to have gone fine during installation as I was getting all positive messages confirming that the steps were performed successfully.
However when I go to the forum page itself, all I see if this:
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”
admin area loads, just front end doesn’t load at all, only this text appears. Can somebody help
Nah, I was just going to alter the theme to match my website’s eventual design. Having bbPress handle everything except whether or not the user is logged in is fine by my (although I was also hoping to make it display the user’s avatar, display name, and whatnot).
At this point though, because I don’t have much experience with extending WordPress, I’m just looking into writing my own custom system rather than play around with bbPress. While I could probably come up with a solution with some more effort, I can probably produce a workable forum that integrates fully into my system in about the same amount of time.
Thanks a lot, Sam,
Now, let me ask you something else, cause it’s not clear to me yet. Both the blog and the forum have been running in paralel for a while in the same domain, and pratically they share the same users. We didn’t integrated them before because we couldn’t make it work back then, so we decided to do it later. So both blog and bbPress tables have existing data. What will it happen to the users tables? They are going to be “merged”? I mean, most users have the same login for the blog and the forum. What will it happen to them? I think there might be a conflict. Will one of them be discarded? If so, which one? Should I check both tables prior the integration?
Thanks again.

Looking for the same solution….it doesn’t look trivial..
I have the same issue plus i need bbpress to be wrapped within the central column of my site, which is generated by a php function….did you manage to do that?
As long as you have all the fields that should be there, the extra fields shouldn’t affect bbPress.
Make sure you setup a WordPress to bbPress role map in bbPress before you do the integration. That way your WordPress admins should be able to instantly login to bbPress as keymasters.
Keep in mind that if you have existing data in your bbPress tables, the user ID associations will be out of whack on posts and topics.
