I’ve installed this plugin and the admin side works perfectly. I am able to create forums, topics, replies, etc, however it doesn’t not show up on the actual site. At all. Even when I click the “preview forum” or “view forum” buttons, the browser tells me that link doesn’t exist. It’s a 404 error.

I’ve checked all the settings and they are all public and seem to be correct… Though as an admin I should be able to see them all anyway.

I’m on WordPress 3.4.2 with bbPress 2.1.2

I’m having this exact same problem, too. Only, for me, this issue has appeared out of nowhere on an existing install. I’m running bbpress on another website and compared the backend settings; it’s working on one site, but not the other.

UPDATE: After making sure it wasn’t a plugin-compatibility issue, I refreshed my permalinks via the instructions here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-not-working/.

And it worked!
