I’ve installed 2 plugins which are 1.bbPress Attachments 2.Allow Images on my bbPress site. However, when users attached image files it shows only file name. How do I make the attached image files to be viewable on the post straight away? Please advice?
Thank you very much.
My new install of both wordpress and bbpress seems to linked successfully, as when I login, i am automatically logged in on the other.
However, logging out of one, does not log me out of the other.
Additionally, when this occurs, it is possible for me to log back in under a different account and find that each now as a different account logged in.
bbpress 0.9.0.2
wordpress 2.5.1
You can do those things with plugins.
Images:

Admin can post anything (like video):

Look around, search the forum, you’ll probably find people have already asked about the things you’re asking about.
Depends on what you mean by embed, and how much work you consider cumbersome. I don’t think it works too well to put bbPress into an iframe in your website. But other sorts of integration work just fine. There’s nothing special (that I know of) that makes WordPress integration any different than the presentation in any other website.
I’m trying to integrate WordPress 2.5.1 and bbPress 0.9.0.2.
I have matched SECRET_KEY in wp-config.php with BB_SECRET_KEY in bb-config.php and matched WordPress “secret” database option with bbPress “secret” database setting.
I have also setup compatible cookie domains and paths in config files and mapped user roles.
The only thing I haven’t done is share user tables because it isn’t required and my bbPress database is separate.
I am still having problems integrating. When a user registers on bbPress, they are not registered in WordPress.

In the end, is it possible to embed bbpress within any web site? i mean is it cumbersome?
To quote chrishajer, your best bet will probably be to convert to phpbb and then from there to bbpress.
It indeed was aMySQL issue. It’s been solved now.
Ah, I thought it was something like that. I’ve just ordered a new hosting, which works on MySQL 5.
Thanks for the help.
Adding only
Options +MultiViews
in my .htaccess in the root of my directory where I installed bbpress did the trick. It was like magic!
This is an old post, but the concept still applies:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/title-tags#post-9045
bb_title
is the function you need to override with a plugin, such as this one. To see what bb_title
and bb_get_title
do, take a look at bb-includes/template-functions.php
starting around line 305 (in version 0.9.0.2).
There still appears to be no answer to this problem. I would very much like to use BBPress, but it will not be possible, until categories are included. I wish I was better at php.
The question was actually meant to be about categories. How are they to be added to BBPress? This is a pretty standard feature for forum applications. Why does it not appear to be available in v0.9, or am I looking in the wrong place?
Any idea when next major bbPress release will be? Will it be 1.0 or something in between? Thanks
Dear All,
I am monetizing my blog with adsense. and i am going to integrate with bbpress.
I need your help:
Do we have any plugin for adsense and adsense revenue sharing plugin.
thanks,

Figured it out by looking at the documentation. Silly me 
https://bbpress.org/documentation/themes/
The Trunk is broken because there`s still a lot to do and to change / integrate (wordpress functions..); so it is just normal that the bbpress trunk is not installing.. (backpress..)
use the 0.9.02 Version.. and if using wordpress trunk, remember, wordpress changed its cookies so there is a problem in logging in with bbpress if its integrated. With WordPress Final there`s no problem with integration – bbpress will sure be updated soon (i hope) to use the new logged_in cookie from wordpress.
Hi everybody 
I’m finally going to do a proper BBPress forum, and integrating it with one of my sites (http://www.retrogarden.co.uk/). The forum is here (http://www.retrogarden.co.uk/forum/)
I have two small questions though:
1. How do I edit the look of the login form? At the moment it can be construed as confusing as the width of the column makes it look terrible.
2. On a topic page (http://retrogarden.co.uk/forum/topic/your-first-topic), how do I edit the look of this page? Which template is it in? I want to remove the border around the gravatar, and expand the size of the post content at the expense of the post author information
Pokerlover:
Slug means URL, but I’m not sure
.
You have to change the settings/premalinks option to day and name. After that you can change the “Slug” in the Page management to whatever URL you want, for example http://www.site.com/bbpress/.
After that your page links to bbpress, OK. But how you make it recognized as a “current page item” when you’re in the forums?
Could it be that posts retain as metadata the forum in which they where originally posted and when you move the entire topic they do not change said metadata? If this is bbPress behaviour and I move a topic to another forum, then all the subsequent posts made under this topic (prior to me moving it) are linking (the forum_id field) to the old forum and not the new one.
Did this make any sense?
Because this turns to be a problem when using a plugin like “Hidden forums” for example. I move a hidden topic with a lot of responses to a public forum (not hidden) but only the first posts become visible to those users who can’t access the hidden forum. You have to edit the other posts so the forum_id gets updated and those posts are linked to the new forum.
I doubt it has anything to do with subversion.
What revision did you check out? I think the trunk release is probably broken (I could be wrong, but I still wouldn’t use it in production) so I would check out tags/0.9.0.2/instead of trunk:
svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/tags/0.9.0.2/
To link your bbPress forum to WordPress, follow this:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/link-to-forum-from-wordpress#post-15981
Create a new Page in WordPress. When you do that, the page is assigned a slug, which is basically the URL it will be accessed at. If you want http://www.example.com/forum/ , you create a new page called “Forum”. That page will appear in your WordPress navigation. Then install bbPress into a directory on your server, one directory lower than WordPress, called forum, and when someone accesses that URL, they get your forum.
They will never use the same administration pages.
I still dont get how to link my bbpress forum from my wordpress blog?
what is slug? i have installed both bbpress and wordpress, they now use the same database but not the same administration pages…
thanks
