Hi All

I have been putting together a site on a local server and would like to use bbPress, however when ever I click on Forums in the dashboard I get the following error:
HTTP 500 error
That’s odd… the website can’t display this page
The site may be under maintenance or could have a programming error.

Can any one please help me.

I would also like to know if you can make the forum invite only and if you are not a member you can not see anything.

Thanks for toy help,
Michael

bbpress hates local server !

try adding this to your function file

add_filter( 'bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 'my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 999, 1 );
function my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url( $requested_url )
{
    return 'http://localhost:8888' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
}

Hi

Thanks i will give it a go. How about the invite only? Is this possible with this plugin?

if you make forums ‘private’ then only logged in users can see them
