Version 1.0 ldap-authentication plugin was released today in bbPress Plugin Trac
Probably will be available via plugins area soon too.
hey guys,
i have followed the instructions on the forums/extend for intgegrating bbpress and wordpress.
It all seems to work – bbpress knows about the wordpress users.
Only problem is that i have to login to both wordpress & bbpress seperately – I thought it was supposed to support 1 login for both – using the same cookie or something?
the test site is:
blog.lumanation.com
the forums link at the top takes you to the bbpress install
any help would be greatly appreciated! 
also – any ideas on how to embed the bbpress install into wordpress – is it just a matter of hacking up the bbpress templates or is there a more elegant way similar to the wordpress rs-discuss/xdforum plugins?
Cheers!
Adam
Wow! Thanks a lot spencerp. As a visual person, a visual tutorial is priceless.
I am in love with WordPress and bbPress. I was originally thinking of going with phpbb, but man, this bbPress is so sleek, so easy to customize, and has so much potential.
Thanks again,
Orion
Have you looked at the WP translation plugin? I think that could be altered to do something for bbPress. I haven’t looked at it, but it should be pretty simple to integrate.

Hmm… last night, the bbpress “latest discussion” links did not have the “replies” bit. This morning they sure do though.
Interesting point about the RSS feeds. Because each post does not have its own URL, I guess this is a way to simulate it. Still, it seems there should be a “pretty” option for that as well. Something like:
http://example.com/topic/1/post/3
Instead of:
http://example.com/topic/1?replies=3
I may explore this with some mod_redirect rules and a little code hacking. Any bbpress devs around that can chime in? In my experience with Google (and others), it’s notably easier to get URLs like the first example above indexed.
When I click that link, https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/592, it redirects to https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/592?replies=2
There is no way to get rid of the “?replies=” bit?
I think this is the specific TRAC ticket to watch:

Good tutorial from Podz! Seen it before, but forgot about it! Thanks for posting Spencer!
Good old bbPress eh….change the URL’s in the config.php and presto!
Trent
This forum has the same argument on replies. For example my URL for this post after I click submit will be:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/592?replies=2
Only consulation in short run is the URL works fine with yanking the replies part off the URL if you quote a thread somewhere else:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/592
The URL works as a way to show how many posts are in a thread, works as a way for feed readers of RSS to know which post is which, works for others to know as well. Not sure if Devs may have a better way to do this, but thanks for bringing it up!

If you want to have it in the plugin repository for bbPress, check out:

Saw you posted another thread as well for this plugin!

Once you get the email from mdawaffe about your plugin directory URL, then you need to head over to this page and download a client to connect to the system:
http://subversion.tigris.org/project_packages.html
For Windows, I actually picked one like TortoiseSVN as it is graphical, but it is up to you.
Each program has it’s own way to work, but I found a graphical tutorial on the web for reference. Just do a search for your client name that you are using. It works great!
In terms of what to upload and in what folders of your directory after you are asked to login, check out:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/add/info.php
Hope that gives you a start!

It has been added to the Plugin Repository
Hi. I just got bbPress up and running this evening, and I’m really liking it so far. I have it configured for “pretty permalinks”, and I’m seeing a strange “replies” argument in the topic URLs. For instance:
http://example.com/topic/2?replies=1
This makes pretty permalinks not quite so pretty after all. I thought the whole idea was to minimize the arguments to be more search-engine friendly.
After looking through the source code, it doesn’t appear that this argument is actually used for anything functional. My best guess is that “replies” is an attempt at a cache-buster, so that the URL changes each time a new reply is posted. Wouldn’t it be preferable to simply set the “Last-Modified” header to the time of the most recent post?
It seems like this would achieve the same thing without ruining the pretty permalinks. Also, I notice that the bbpress.org support forums don’t have this extra argument. Can you share the magic?
Thanks.
Is that it? I am actually working with both WordPress and bbPress integrated. There is quite alot of work that needs to be done WP on the database side ( https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL ) , so I was figuring something similar would need to be done for bbPress. Although, they are sharing a database, not sure if that makes a difference. Any other thoughts?
I have just finished my first plugin. It is, as they say, rough as a cob. It allows you to display an image with the author’s name based on the number of posts they have made. You can download it here:
http://www.brightandearlyblog.com/bbPress/downloads/display_rank_images.zip
You can see it in action at http://www.brightandearlyblog.com/bbPress and then looking at any topic.
Suggestions are greatly welcome. I have submitted it to the development center plugin repository.
Theme admin, removal of support/non-resolved/resolved deal, various bug fixes, time bug, forum deletion, added plugability, css fixes, various other things.
What changes will there be in 0.8?
I hope you’ll continue to populate the plugins browser with your clever works

Hey Community,
What should I do in bbPress if I am changing my domain name?
Thanks,
Orion
davidbessler,
Your theme needs to have a call to bb_head() in its header.php.
If you’re using a version of the default header, make sure bb_head() is actually being executed on every page load. There was a bug in early versions of bbPress that prevented bb_head() from being called on anything but topic pages.
As an aside, if you’re adding javascript, you should definitely use bb_enqueue_script().
bb_enqueue_script( 'give-it-some-name', '/soruce/file.js');
