I just moved WordPress and bbPress to a new host. Everything is working fine with both apps except I can no longer log into bbPress with my WP account and the posts using the BBpress Latest Discussions plugin are no longer displaying.
The bb-config.php file is configured correctly because the forum posts are displaying. Is there an .htaccess file elsewhere than the root that’s missing? Is it a permission issue?
Any clue what I’m missing?
Thanks,
Gio
I have bbPress 0.9.0.2 fully integrated with WP 2.5.1 using shared DB and tables. Everything seems to be working fine, except that when users register on bbPress they are shown as having “no role for this blog” on the WP side.
Role mapping defined in bbPress is: WP-Administrator==bb-Administrator, WP-Editor==bb-Moderator, WP-Author==bb-Member, WP-Contributor==bb-Member, WP-Subscriber==bb-Member.
I was expecting somemone who signs up to bbPress (with the default Member role) to be given Subscriber status in WP. I can see that there is an ambiguity as to which WP role should be chosen for a bbPress Member, but I guessed the one with lowest privilege, i.e. Subscriber, would apply.
In forum.php and front-page.php, the latest poster for each topic is identified. Is it possible to also identify the first poster– ie the person who started the thread and perhaps also when the thread was started? After sifting through code for several hours, I’m not sure if I’m overlooking something, or if I simply cannot find something that is not there. Thanks.
Re-posted my comment from another thread to here….thought it might get better exposure this way to help find a solution sooner.
When I am on my Front Page and click on any of the other pages numbers (2, 3, Next>>, etc) that are inserted by this plugin, I get this error:
Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 0 in /[myURL]/Forum/bb-includes/template-functions.php on line 925
This only happens on my front-page.php. Clicking on the numbers in my forum.php or topic.php works just fine – goes to that page number.
Any ideas?

How to insert advertisements after the first message?
I’ve installed this on three sites so far and have the following issues:
1. I don’t have the admin setting that is in the file that comes up with the link on the integration settings page for wp. If it isn’t there how am I supposed to give the setting to bbpress? I was able to find everything else. That setting isn’t in any of the three WP-MU sites I’ve installed bbpress alpha 2 on. They’re all using 2.6.2 or 2.6.3.
2. As keymaster, I cannot undelete a thread. I just get an error saying “An unidentified error has occurred.”
3. The “new topic” link is active even when no one is logged in. This link shouldn’t appear if no one is logged in. I normally get a 404 error page when I click on it without being logged in.
4. One one site, I couldn’t start a thread. as soon as it was submitted, I was told it was deleted or moderated or something like that.
Hi,
I was wondering whether there’s a plug in which creates a new forum topic in bbPress and links to it everytime I post a new WordPress post?
This has three plus points:
-Forums are a more organized/structured system than a blog comments system
-In addition to being a comments system, users can also start their own threads
-Topics per post encourages users to join the forums/register at your site
Here’s an example of how it’s done (WP + PHPBB topics per post plugin)

I hope there’s a WP + BBP version of that plugin.
Hi there,
My bbPress forum (0.9.2) has been theme and databased intergrated, I’ve just decided to test sticky topics, and this occurs on a sticky topic:

What is this [sticky] code doing, Is this meant to be how a sticky topic is identified to someone or is broken bbcode?
Regards,
James
I’m about ready to start integrating bbPress into my site. I plan to make extensive modifications, so much so that it would probably not resemble bbPress at all when I’m done.
This is my idea. I’m going to have 51 forums (1 for each state + DC) and then tag each forum post with latitude and longitude of the city from which the user posted. So if a user posts a message from my New York City page, it will be tagged with the longitude and latitude of New York City.
Then I would like to sort of auto generate forums for each city by using proximity searches. So say the user loads a page in Rochester, NY. I can search the NY State forum for all the posts within X miles of Rochester, NY.
I have all the MySQL latitude/longitude stuff figured out using MySQL spacial indexes.
My question is whether or not you think this is possible with bbPress, and second if I go ahead and make extensive modifications to bbPress and can not easily upgrade, is the current version stable enough to “live with” for quite awhile?
