just upgraded to wp2.5 and now trying to upgrade bbpress, but stuck at step 2 cause I don’t have a wp cookie secret key and wp database secret.

how can i move forward?

also my bbpress was private – it could only be accessed, read and written by my wp authors only. will this be lost? how can i get the same feature back?

Answer to the first question is that you need to add a SECRET to your wp-config file.
