I installed the standalone version of bbpress here. The install file is physically located on www.compusoftdevelopment.com/forum/bb-admin/install.php. When I navigate to that link, I get this error:
“The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.compusoftdevelopment.com/forum/bb-admin/install.php. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.”
I tried installing bbpress as a WordPress plugin, but that didn’t work either. Basically, 1) I activated the plugin from my WordPress site, 2) created a forum from the admin panel, 3) activated the ‘bbpress’ theme which looks like twentyten. Then when I went to the main homepage, there was no actual way to get to the forum except from a direct link as there was no way to create a menu option for it. I am honestly very confused on how to get bbpress to actually work. My company is on my back about it. Thanks for any help!
hello..

Hi everyone,
I’ve been trying to install bbPress on another subdomain:
1. WordPress domain: blog.xxx.com
2. bbPress domain: forum.xxx.com
Wordpress should be able to manage the bbPress installation.
I’ve been searching around for a while, found a few threads, started a few years ago and wondering if there is now a new way to integrate that feature?
Thanks for help.
Hi, thanks a lot for your great effort on this project!
I got some problem after a new installation via /wp-admin/
Version: bbpress WP plugin 2.1.2
MySQL version: 5.1.63-cll
Apache version: 2.2.22
PHP version: 5.3.15
when I open bbp forum it shows:
Warning: sprintf() [function.sprintf]: Too few arguments in/ABC.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/Warning: sprintf() [function.sprintf]: Too few arguments in/*******.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-forum-template.php on line 1868 on line 1868
I searched but can’t get a solution, would you kindly help to fix please?
Thanks in advance!
How do I change this code so that one of the drop downs lists only the sub forums? Thanks! 🙂
bbp_get_form_topic_forum() ) ); ?>
bbp_get_form_topic_forum() ) ); ?>
I already searched this forum and quite a few people had a similar problem about 6 months ago. My case is a bit different though.
I’m running the latest version of bbPress on the latest version of WordPress.
The created forums are all open and public.
When I as an admin user create new topics in any forum, I get the following result on any of these forum pages:
> This forum contains X topics, and was last updated by Admin Y hour,
> Z minutes ago.
>
> Oh bother! No topics were found here!
The topics list simply does not show up for me as a creator of these topics. When logged in as a subscriber, everything shows fine though.
My list of plugins is:
bbPress, Black Studio TinyMCE Widget, Manage Upload Types, Polylang, User Access Manager, WordPress HTTPS, wp-jquery-lightbox, wpsc Support Tickets, WP SlimStat
The used theme is:
EvoLve by Theme4Press
Hi everybody,
I would like to transfer my forum (http://mesaboogie-forum.de) to bbPress. The problem is: I have no idea, how I should do this. The unb forum has no export plugin/function. The only thing I can do, is a db dump.
So, does anybody has an idea, how I can do this?
Thanx for any hint!

On bbpress.com it shows a small avatar under each thread showing who it was started by, then it also displays one for the person who replies. How would I accomplish this on my bbpress installation?
I’ve released a brand new bbPress Plugin called “String Swap” where you can easily change a few breadcrumb parameters as well as some other strings for the frontend (Forum Archive Title, some Breadcrumbs parameters, User Roles Display, plus a few Forum strings).
You can check it out here:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-string-swap/
After installing/activating, look on the bbPress Settings page where there is a new section then 🙂
Any feedback is much appreciated! 🙂 Thank you!
Hope this helps some users 🙂

How to do you install themes? There does not appear to be anything in the admin on how to do this.
