From the looks of things it looks like it. Not sure if it will be 1.0 or 1.5, but it is something worked on. If nothing else, it might become a plugin if it doesn’t make the core. No ATA on when 1.0 is coming out though as it has way more things going on than expected.

So subforums are to become part of a standard install of bbpress? Is this going to happen soon(ish) or am I better off waiting entirely or installing the patch? I really want to use bbpress but I need the subforums.
The fix i already put inside the plugin seem not working.
Maybe in the future bbpress should automatically fill up the display_name
Anyway i try to see what i can do with that.
You have to create a folder called my-plugins inside the bbpress root e.g. /bbpress/my-plugins/ and then upload the plugin to that folder.
I am a little frustrated since I don’t know where the ‘my-plugins’ is in the bbPress directory.
Actually, I tried to install that, but I don’t know where the ‘my-plugins’ is on bbPress. Do I create it? If so, where?
Thanks.
This ‘fix’ seems to work for most users to not have Akismet nuke each post as spam. There will be a better solution in 1.0, so sorry about this!

The best thing to do is going through the permalinks in the documentation. Most can use +multiviews, but there is a workaround in this:

I am afraid not. It would require you manually creating a forum for each site. If you wanted them all to have different sites, it would require a bbPress install for each and every user with different databases. If someone hacks the code to a MU version of bbPress maybe, but right now, not that I know of.

Hello,
After installing bbPress, I am starting to get annoyed in clicking “Not Spam” every time I make a post. It actually took me an hour to realize that was the problem in causing no posts to be displayed on my board.
Is there anyway I can just post without having to press “Not Spam” for each post I make? Not only that, but for my members as well.
Thanks.
If the forums are in a directory inside WPMU, you will have to see if there is a thread over in the WPMU forums about excluding certain names from being a signup name. That will be the only solution short of moving it outside to a subdomain or something like that.

So I installed the latest version of bbpress 0.8.1 and wordpress 2.1.2. I followed the instructions on this website: http://www.bui4ever.com/web-itecture/how_to_integrate_wordpress_and_bbpress/
There are a few CSS problems which i’m sure i’ll be able to iron out but the worrying thing is when i try to post any information – a new tag, new post, new topic; I get the following error:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/pjqkug/public_html/forum/config.php:3) in /home/pjqkug/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 275
Anyone think they can have a gander and help?

Hello,
It’s quite odd how I put the bbpress in a directory such as /board and when when checking http://buufdesigns.com/board , it gives me a 404 error.
My .htcaccess for the website itself is:
‘# Friendly URLs
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9_]+)/?$ /$1.php’
404 error:
‘Not Found
The requested URL /board.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.’
I notice that the .htcaccess is directing ‘everything’ with a .php which the board.php is invalid, however /board/index.php is not.
So, is there any specific way to make .htcaccess recognize as a /board not a /board.php?
Thanks.
Where to post? Logged into WordPress yesterday and posted a support question, only for someone to suggest posting here (as it related to bbpress) Went to login to the WordPress forum tonight and it comes up with the message ‘banned – no such user’ which is bizarre? Can someone suggest what the problem is?
Think I just found a temporary fix. We have maybe 7 wordpress users that use display names. I don’t think that bbpress users can edit display names in the bbpress profile section, so this must of been why it was showing up blank when our bbPress users (not wp users) were posting in the forums. I fixed the issue by un-checking the “integrated with wordpress” check box on the bdLP options page.
Our bbpress and wordpress users don’t switch sides so much, so it shouldn’t be to much of an issue.
Best,
Orion
Hey Atsutane,
I had another question. I noticed that the members name only seems to appear next to users using nicknames. For example, if I add a nickname to a user, then the users name will appear next to the latest post. But if a new bbPress user who doesn’t use a Wpress nickname posts, then there name doesn’t show up next to the latest post. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Orion
I never followed up, so I’ll do so now. We ended up choosing Vanilla (http://www.getvanilla.com) for our forums at http://forums.opendns.com/. We continue to be thrilled with WordPress, but bbPress was too big an investment of time to integrate with our systems at the time we had to move.
I’m sure if bbPress gets even 1/4 of the community attention that WP gets, it will be fantastic.
Turn off permalinks in the config.php file
$bb->mod_rewrite = false
Or add the appropriate entries to your .htaccess file as described here
The errors stem from the fact that plugins aren’t designed to be called in isolation. They are included into the rest of bbPress when they are loaded. Meaning that if you try to run the plugin in isolation, then you won’t have access to the whole bbPress API (including the add_action() function and all the bbdb class).
If you take a look at how tag addition works in the core, you will probably get an insight into the best way to do this.
I got it all working, but now when I try and click on a link, I get an error that says The requested URL /bbpress/topic/1 was not found on this server … is this a permalink problem? If so, how do I get rid of them? Thanks agaain!
Hi guys … I have wordpress up and running on my site, but I tried to get bbpress working, but something isn’t quite right I think. Am I doing something wrong? You can check it out at rigelastronomy.com/bbpress … thanks! I’m new to bbpress, but love wordpress
Hi there,
Is there any progress on bbpress integration? I would really like to use it with my current site. Also, my current site is using PostgreSQL for backend, would it make the integration more difficult?
Thanks.
Hi, I’ve integrated bbpress into my site, but there is an error somewhere. When I view my site, the usernames on the forum with the ‘member’ link below is visible, but a member has complained he can’t see it. I’ve been to a local library, and was forced to agree, on that computer I couldn’t see it either. I use IE7 and Firefox for browsing, whereas the library is using IE6, if that should make a difference. What’s the problem.

I was looking in forums, but couldn’t find solution.
Is it possible to install bbpress so that it would create forum on each new wp mu site? that means xx.mypage.com/forum, yy.mapage.com/forum …
