They’ve been tested in IE6 but not IE5.. (I don’t even know how we would test in IE5)
Yes, they can only be used with our WP themes.. we’ve had to hack the WP header.php to include bbPress specific stuff, there are also some bbPress options included in the WordPress themes.. (meaning we had to alter the WP themes)
I would like to give away a bbPress theme for free, but didn’t get any feedback on the thread we started about it.
It also seems like bbPress works best when with a WP theme.
Thanks Chris and everyone, I will test Kevin’s code tonight and see how it works.
Keep you guys posted 
I spent a little while looking at this at the weekend. There’s a nice ‘action’ that I can hook into for generating the voting links and output. A little more tweaking on the back-end (AJAX processing of votes) and I’ll be ready to let this out for a beta test.
hi,i think that i have solved it!
i have a hostmonster.com account,so i change one domains folder to another domains folder.like xxx.com/bbs====>yyy.com and then i take some hours to test some solutions and at last i make my webistes work well. hehe.
my solution is that: change 2 data of database.
look below:
[bb_forums]====> [1 xxx.com/bbs]
>[1 yyy.com]
[bb_meta]====> [3 bb_option 0 uri http://xxx.com/bbs%5D
> [3 bb_option 0 uri
http://yyy.com]
if oke,please feedback a comment!

No. Matt is back involved, as noted in his latest weekly bbPress meeting.
You might be thinking of either Sam or _ck_. Sam was an employee of Matt who left to pursue other interests. _ck_ was a major contributor of plugins who left because, to my understanding, she felt under appreciated by the community and disagreed with the direction of the product.
@ipunkbali…..have you set up an account, verified your site and lodged a xml sitemap in Google Webmaster?
One more thing, your forum is not indexed by google. Can u find out why? I have the same problem too. It’s been 2 weeks. thanks
Thank you very much Michael! I was thinking that no one was watching for us here.
Glad to know that the BBpress community isnt dead. I’ve just installed it and im loving it!!

Hi guys, my latest discussions list doesnt stop growing, I would like to edit it to the last 5 topics. How should I do it? Thanks!
Hello,
I’m planning to start a new forum based on bbpress.
My only problem is that the actual version (1.0.2) doesn’t have email notification working (topic subscription) working.
My idea is to install the latest 0.9 version and add some plugins for email notifications. But at the same time I saw that the trunk version already have this feature implemented, so I’m wondering if I should go with trunk version and them change to the stable version when this feature is implemented or if I should stick with 0.9.
What do you think about this?
Thanks inadvance!
Up.
Do anyone know a solid plugin to parse bbCode ( , , … ) per the latest version of bbPress?
I have just tested it on a separate server and I get the same error.
I did the same: installed a fresh BBpress. Created database and user for it in backend, went to: http://domain_name/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php and the page shows up correctly. I insert the connection info and connects successfully.
When I press go to step 2, I get the same error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER in /home/domain_name/www/www/bbpress/bb-includes/backpress/class.wp-http.php on line 281
I will try on my localhost, but for me seems that the bbpress installation folder is corupt!
arpowers,
Your system requirements state that your bbpress themes can only be used with your corresponding blog themes. Is this true? Or could they work alongside another theme?
Also, have they been tested with IE5 and IE6 (I know, I know… don’t ask.)
Thanks!
It’s already in the code – http://phpxref.ftwr.co.uk/bbpress/bb-load.php.source.html#l153
You should really update to the latest version – it has multiple security fixes over your version.
(And btw, config.php is deprecated – bb-config.php is where it’s at!)
Seemed to have solved this, so I’ll post the answers for anyone else who has this problem.
PHP 5.3+ now requires you to define an object explicitly ($object = new className();). The $bb variable in older versions of bbPress is an object which is implicitly defined in config.php. Thus, if you define it explictly as an object of type stdClass, the error goes away, like so:
$bb = new stdClass();
WARNING: I have not fully tested this, so use at your own risk.
However, I also noted that in bbPress 1.0.2, the whole $bb object seems to be deprecated, so it is likely that if you upgrade to the newest version, the errors will also go away. I can’t upgrade just yet, so I haven’t tried this either.
Cheers!
Glad to hear ‘mass delete users’ is being eyed as well. Will make it easier to get rid of spam users.
Hope they improve the sorting of users as well (one should be able to sort by date registered to see latest ones, if they are spammers, etc)
Hi Fernando,
– bbcode buttons toolbar
what plugin do you use to parse bbcode then?
I don’t read bbcode lite in your post, infact it shouldn’t work for 1.0.2 the one in the repository.
Testing: hello world it doesn’t work even here?
It seems that latest version is not working for me because I want to integrate it with old version of WordPress.
Can I get a old version of BBPress? like in wordpress.org
I did need an anonymous posting in my installation of bbPress and after checking few threads I realized that would be probably worth to try do it by my own. So if anyone interested, I am releasing the alpha version of plugin + source patch (yeah its hack for testing.
You could get it on http://trac.espr.it/wiki/bbPress/AnonymousPosting – feel free to raise a ticket there if the plugin is not working or in case of any other problems but I am full time working so don’t promise any quick fixes and reaction.
Just what the plugin actually does. Any non-logged user has a opportunity to log in as anonymous user (with very restrictive permissions) through standard form. He has to pass security question which is possible define in plugin administration.
The code should be working again 1.0.2 version of bbpress.
I do not use this plugin but I still have this feature. Can you tell me why?
Yes, it works properly with version 1.0.2. You can see it working here:

can this work with the new version?
Thanks.
Hi
Well, for a start, if you have a WordPress.com username, you must enable Akismet – it’s the best spam protection you’ll get. I also recommend ‘Human Test for bbPress’ – also good for security.
Here’s a list of the plugins I recommend: (I may miss some because I don’t use all of them, obviously) Items marked with a star are quite important, in your case.
1. Allow Images *
2. Avatar Upload *
3. bbPM (for Personal Messages)
4. bbPress Moderation Suite (not always used in some forums, but very handy to have)
5. bbPress Smilies *
6. bb Topic Icons
7. bb Topic Icons/Support Forum Connector (comes with the above plugin)
8. Burning Tags
9. The MyViews Suite
10. bbPages
11. Project Honey Pot (Spam protection, prevents spam users from registering)
12. Signatures
There are plenty more, but those are my most common ones.
Hope that helps a little.
