I am actually having an issue with the login and logout. I logged in perfectly from my initial install. I went to adjust the template by duplicating the files in the bb-template/ and creating a my-template/ directory. While logged in I am able to perform as one would expect; however, I was unable to logout.
When I hit the logout link it takes me to “http://mydomain.com/subdir/login.php?logout”
Then returns to the previously viewed page, but I am still logged in. I went to change the password as I thought it may have been a purposeful measure to make sure an individual changes their password. I was immediately logged out, and now I am unable to log back in using my old password, or the new one I created.
Thanks.
Hmmm… ok going to do a clean install on my test forum, perhaps another plugin is jamming…
Thx
Got it fixed, it was another plugin, fixed the error, thx again
zip is removed
Ehm … donno where exactly should I get errors?
I installed this file .. I can post … I can login .. I can access the Portal-Configuration … 
Everything seems to work for me.
Checked it, but that’s not it. Also get this error when login in (same as when posting):
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /xxx/bbpress/my-plugins/bbPortal.php:2) in /xxx/bbpress/bb-includes/pluggable.php on line 39
Any other ideas?
Made a zip of the current plugin, just put it into your plugin folder. Now try to post a new post or anything and the error will occur. The new form in adminpage/content/bbportal works great.
NOTE:
This is for testing ONLY. The plugin aint done yet or compleet!!!!

Oh yeah, I agree totally about how it could “slow down” a forum. 
I’m not worried about that really, I’m specifically asking if/for this to be possible with bbPress, so I don’t have to use those *other* forum softwares though.. 
I guess I’ll have to wait on what Josh comes up with, I think he’s planning on doing something about this then.. whee!

Very nice looking. Glad you’re using a few of my plugins Theming bbpress isn’t so easy yet, but it’s doable and you certainly did a good job.
Ok, so I just looked at the pretty permalinks tutorial on bbpress.org… I had no idea that the forums generated it automatically. I’ll change the wording to make sure people know to change “forums” to whatever
Yeah, how did you know how to make the rewrite rules for bbpress? How was their directions worded? I’ll word it like that.
That php error is usually caused by white space/blank lines before the <?php or after the closing ?>. I would check for that first.
Yeah, I know that once theming ability is added to bbPress, I’ll probably be fixing several things on this theme! LOL
But hey, it’s yet another toy for me to muck up, I mean, play with. 
I’ve tried to match it up as close as possible to the main site without looking too “off” and feel that I’ve done a pretty good job.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated. I’ve checked on Firefox 2.0 and IE 6.0 but would love to hear from users of other browsers!
Thanks in advance, and a huge thanks to those who’ve posted these plugins, as well as the FAQ and other solutions. Skinning this thing has been a bear, but everything else has been relatively easy as pie.
Very nice!
Worked perfectly the first time. One tiny detail I would add: users whose bbpress install is in a directory named anything other than “forums” will need to change the RewriteRule in order to reflect the correct path. I almost missed that part.
Hi there…
i nearly completed an italian translation for bbPress (using the last SVN, so it should be the most updated).
I’m keeping it updated and i’m going near completion today or tomorrow.
If you want to have a look at it or use it, feel free to check HERE
This is just a test forum… it’s not yet released to users
Bye!
YES! Once again gerd damn-its, testing a bunch of crap out the arse.. for Josh there.. it’s FINALLY working both ways now.. whee!!

/It’s fun though.. being the guinea pig .. of a bbpress plugin pimp! lmao
I wasn’t talking about your programming skill, I was commenting that saying “f’ed in the A’ isn’t a very appropriate thing to put in code that will be appearing on other people’s sites. I didn’t mean for it to be a personal attack.
I have pretty permalinks turned up, but not sure if my .htaccess file is working like it should. WHenever I add new plugins, they dont seem to work with pretty permalinks. (pm, mlist etc…) I tried going to bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php but it just redirects me to the main page. Perhaps bb-press is assuming I’m in a bbpress directory?
there’s a .73b? I’m running .73 currently. I’ve looked all over the site and cant find a mention of downloaing a .73b version.
Not sure why, but I had to make these changes to get the PM links to work for me:
if ( $bb->mod_rewrite )
$r = bb_get_option('uri') . "message" . ( '' != $tag ? "$tag" : '' );
to
if ( $bb->mod_rewrite )
$r = bb_get_option('uri') . "message.php" . ( '' != $tag ? "$tag" : '' );
and
if ( $bb->mod_rewrite )
$r = bb_get_option('uri') . "pm" . ( '' != $tag ? "$tag" : '' );
to
if ( $bb->mod_rewrite )
$r = bb_get_option('uri') . "pm.php" . ( '' != $tag ? "$tag" : '' );
Works great though!
EDIT: I get this error when I add the pm_user_link bit to my post.php
“bbPress database error: [Table ‘CENSORED_DB_NAME’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT * FROM bb_users WHERE ID = 1″
I never could figure out why I was getting that, so I just deleted that bit, but otherwise seems to be working fine.

I guess the change password bug (and general user-account editing bug) in the translated versions are triggered by the translation of this line in the bbpress/bb-includes/functions.php file:
$profile_menu[0] = array(__('Edit'), 'edit_profile', 'edit_users', 'profile-edit.php', 'edit');
If you translate 'Edit' by 'Editer' or 'Modifier', for example, users won’t be able to save their password change, and administrators won’t be able to save a role change for an user; the last part of the edit link — …/edit— will be changed to either …/editer or …/modifier. The page will display, but when you click on the save button, changes to the user’s profile won’t be saved.
Ok if my PHP/MySQL knowledge is still good , the plugin must , on the first use , add a new collumn to bb_topics table ( named for example cat_id ) , and a new table titled bb_cats .
On each use of the plugin , it must check if everything is good ( the collumn cat_id , the table bb_cats ) before continuing , and if not , it must display the default structure of the forum .
To perform this last , there must be new template tags which can be ignored if the plugin installation is wrong , so the plugin needs its proper template file …
We know that the goal of BBPress is to be light and fast , so if you code all the things above and use them on a plugin , BBPress will be slower , i think like PunBB …
So my tip is ; don’t use categories , try to remove no useful forums , merge some forums if they are similar , and you’ill have a good order without categories .
Maybe this will help:

p.s. glad you figured the first part out.
I just realized that there was information regarding a person with an external database. My wordpress database was different than my bbpress database. So I needed to add the following information
// This is the information about wordpress database. bbPress will look for users in this database
define(‘USER_BBDB_NAME’, ‘wordpress_database’);
define(‘USER_BBDB_USER’, ‘wordpress_database_username’);
define(‘USER_BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘wordpress_database_password’);
define(‘USER_BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);
The problem is now that I don’t have admin privileges at bbpress.
The site issue and the database issues do seem like separate things. That was the first thing that caught my eye though (the URLs.)
my database has bbpress_ tables (like bbpress_forums, bbpress_posts, etc) and wp_ tables (like wp_links, wp_users, wp_usermeta etc)
My config.php (bbpress) has this for the DB stuff:
$bb_table_prefix = 'bbpress_';
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_';
And mine just works with user integration like that. Is is possible that including the ‘http://dearauthor.com/wordpress/wp-config.php’ is overwriting something? I didn’t have to include that, and just have the one other require there. Why is that included for yours (did you read something I didn’t maybe?)
Looking at your original error:
'dearauth_bbdb.wp_users' doesn't exist
the table prefix there is set to dearauth_bbdb somehow. Maybe you forgot to close a quote or something? Or did you edit your config before posting it (i.e. it’s not the actual, but it’s edited without the same error maybe?) You didn’t post the MySQL and bbpress config stuff from the top of the config.php.
Just guessing, but maybe we’ll get it.
I have tried that. It seems to me that it is not looking at either the right database (ie., the wordpress database is different than the bbpress database) or it needs to have the “bb_” prefix instead of the “wp_” prefix.
i.e., when I change $bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; to $bb->wp_table_prefix = 'bb_';, I no longer get the error, but then I am also not getting the wordpress users either.
Hi Trent, Merry Christmas. I did install it and it apparently was working since someone got blocked :yikes: I could not find any logging anywhere, and to fix it yourself with the code provided
> Your technical support key is: 0000-zzzz-yyyy-xxxx
>
> You can use this key to fix this problem yourself.
you need to log in to the ioerror/homelandstupidity site here:
http://www.ioerror.us/ip/
But with the IP that was blocked. So, with no logging and no way to know why this legitimate user was blocked, I disabled it. I was looking at the logging a bit (using bad-behavior-wordpress.php as an example as suggested) but I haven’t figured it out yet. I was hoping there was a config section with four lines like WP or BB, where I could enter the DB details, but it’s not there
So, turned off for now. It was doing something though, I just don’t know what or why.
I am having problems with the integration. I installed the bbpress_integration on my wordpress blog which is installed at dearauthor.com/wordpress.
I have a redirect that makes the blog address dearauthor.com
I then installed the bb forum at dearauthor.com/forum.
I set the bbPress Integration as bb_
I have this in the config.php file for bbPress
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; //
$bb->wp_home = ‘http://dearauthor.com’; //
$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://dearauthor.com’; //
$bb->cookiedomain = ‘dearauthor.com’;
$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;
require_once(‘http://dearauthor.com/wordpress/wp-config.php’);
I am getting this error.
bbPress database error: [Table ‘dearauth_bbdb.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE ID = 1 AND user_status % 2 = 0
Anonymous`
Thanks.
