What version of bbPress?
Trunk is a bit broken.
The last release (0.9.0.2) should be fine.
Hi there. I’ve just moved my whole installation directory for WordPress and BBPress. I thought I had followed all the directions and WordPress works fine. But when I go to the BBPress installation (A sub-directory of WP) it no longer automatically logs me on. I’ve edited any relevant config files. What do you think is the problem?
Lateral, look at the top of this page. See where it says EXTEND? Click that and then search…
I just did that for you, and here’s the plugin:
* https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-ratings/
Thanks for this. It fixed our issue with the login cookies.
i want to integrate my wordpress with bbpress forum as when i write a post i automaticly add a topic on bbpress and comments are the same as posts (you see both comments and posts in both wordpress and bbpress)
is it possible? does anyone know how to integrate bbpress in such way?
cheers
Another update…
When trying to login to bbPress, it logs me into WordPress, but not bbPress. So, the bbPress login and out features are setting correctly the WordPress session info, but not the bbPress session info.
My report is bogus:
-the user_url has nothing to do with the issue, in fact it occurs with almost any .php part of bbpress:
http://www.site.com/forums/register.php?http://www.google.com
throws the warning message.
-the warning of course is shown depending on the current php configuration regarding error reporting
none of the scripts inside bb-templates should be +x
otherwise users will be able to execute them and a path will be disclosed.
example:
http://www.site.com/forums/bb-templates/kakumei/register-success.php
returns an error and a path is disclosed:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: bb_get_header() in /server/path/disclosed/forums/bb-templates/kakumei/register-success.php on line 1
comment:
I had to +x all my files in my hosting environment to make bbpress work; this directory and its content should not be +x’ed.
(bbpress will still work if this directory is not +x’ed)
this is primarily ‘my fault’ but since I think what I did (+x’ing everything to make bbpress work) could have been done by others, I’m just making this note here.
After integrating WordPress and bbPress, a single login works correctly, but logout does not work. When I click the logout link from bbPress or WordPress, it does not log me out of bbPress but does log me out of WordPress. Does anyone know why the bbPress logout would not be working?
Sorry, saw it already. xD
Hey guys! I am currently working on a plug-in that will let you use smilies, just like wordpress. Also activated the same way. I am looking through my WordPress.org files, and I found them, the smilies’ images, but not the code. I am new at this so I am gonna need some programming help. Hope it works soon!

Ok, I found a PHP host called bluehost. This topic is HALF solved.
EDIT:
How do I get my files to work as a bbPress?
There are literally millions of hosts. I am not going to recommend one. You need one that meets these basic requirements:
Requirements
That’s about it. Read some web hosting forums, take the comments with a grain of salt, decide on your budget, then pull the trigger based on the information at hand.
Hey guys, I am new at this “self hosted” stuff instead of online hosted. I want a bbPress for myself, but I don’t know where to look to find a host. I us Apache as my server, but need a host. Please help me! Plus I’m only a kid.
Awesome site Kineda, looks very professional and I love how you could never tell that it’s a bbpress install – like djMotLive would be hard to imagine how much work you’ve put into it.
What did you use for images in your posts? What is a custom hack created by yourself? or did you use a plugin?
Thanks,
Will
Well, I for one think kineda.com is a totally awesome work of art!
If the lookbook is actually bbPress then I’m just plain speechless. I can’t even begin to imagine what “lots of hardwork and many late nights” actually means. Something extreme, I’m sure.
I think you have something to be totally proud of here. And having said that, it sounds absolutely understated.
I am just embarking on a journey to rebuild Girls Rock Radio – http://www.girlsrockradio.com into a WordPress/bbPress site. Currently it is neither – it is hand coded html/php and a SimpleMachines Forum.
On this journey, I only wish I could pick your brain along the way. If I can create something only half as beautiful as kineda.com, I’ll be very happy!
When I login as admin I am not able to see the ‘design’, ‘settings’ and ‘plugins’ menus. I am able to see only ‘Dashboard’, ‘Users’, ‘Manage’ in the site admin. I recently integrated the bbPress with wp. Some one Please help. thanks.
Earlier I had problem with the admin user name in the wp (all post of the admin started to get posted on some other user registered user ). I was suggested to delete the user name (which also is the username of the admin in the bbpress) and recreate the same user name.
@wilcosky, this is a sticky thread, so why not just start a new topic for you problem.

Ok, again, sorry for all the posts, but a moderate can delete them if they would like… I just want to say that for the code challenged, a new “upgrade instructions” should be made.
First, there can’t be any config.php files ANYWHERE on your site.
Second, if you want to keep your old posts and forums, make sure you click on the advanced settings box when going through the installation. It is very important that your database have the same prefix as before… you need something like phpmyadmin to check this.
Other than that, follow the instructions.
looks like I figured it out, there was a config.php file in my parent directory for something else on my site… i think that should be fixed so that if there is a config file somewhere other than the forum folder it doesn’t detect it.
Now I just have to figure out how to get all my posts and forums back….
sorry for all the posts, but I just put back my original 0.9 bbpress forum version… because I could not get this 0.9.0.2 to install. It just kept saying that there was an old config.php file somewhere so it wouldn’t install. But I even deleted everything, and just uploaded all the new files like I was installing bbpress for the first time, and still it said that there was an old config.php file.
First I followed the directions, re-naming my config file, and keeping my plugins folder and template folder, and deleted everything else. Then, I uploaded the new files. Went to my site, and error, old config.php detected.
you know what would be cool? If someone could just make a plug-in that people could use that would upgrade their forum to the new version somehow without having to upload new files….
I used to use a simple machines forum, and they would do that, when there was a new version, you could just install the new version as a plug-in. worked great.
I get this error when I upgrade…
But I renamed the config file to bb-config-old.php… I even tried totally removing it, and it still says there is an old config file detected, but I’ve looked everywhere and there is not!
An old config.php file has been detected in your installation. You should remove it and run the installer again. You can use the same database connection details if you do.
