After the upgrade to 2.5 there are CSS errors because the include is broken! The cause is that the programmers didn’t thought about people hosting WordPresss (and bbpress) on Windows platforms. (Windows uses a different slash and different directory root/paths).

I’m hoping for a 2.5.1 fix 😉

ERRORS:
=======

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://www.XXXXXXX.com/wordpress/wp-content/E:inetpubwwwrootXXXXXXX…esswp-contentpluginsbbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css?ver=2.5-5199

Note that the slashes are missing from the ‘plugin_dir’ part.

I think the problem is within the “private function setup_globals” of the bbpress.php file or the “public function __construct” of the bbpress-functions.php file.

(masked my directory and sitename with XXXXXXX)

I’m also getting this problem. Do you know of a manual fix till this is patched? I will try and find some time to take alook.

I am also seeing this in my install. I have access to everything but it has no formatting.

As per my reply here https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-5-is-out/#post-139438

There is a fix now available if you want to grab it before bbPress 2.5.1 https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2481

Thanks @netweb that has fixed it.

@jrsjohn The manual patch/fix is attached in the link I listed above.

[@roeller Participant 11 years ago]

Thanks! I changed the file template-functions.php according to the fix/patch and now everything works again!

I would really like to use this patch but I do not know what to add to the funtions file. Do I include the whole text or replace parts? I really want this to work as the forum looks very crappy now ;(

[@ejamesonvalleyhopeorg Participant 11 years ago]

When will 2.5.1 be coming out?

Also – The patch worked great. Thanks 🙂
