using bbpress .8.3 I can view my main page (http://www.healthstatus.com/health_blog/forums), I can view a latest discussion by clicking on it, but when I click on a forum, I get the message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_header() in /…../forums/forum.php on line 1
Second, when I try and add a forum (from the admin screen) it just flashes at me but doesn’t add the new forum.
I’ve installed the bbpress forum, but I received this error:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/vhosts/etichettando.com/subdomains/forum/httpdocs/bb-settings.php on line 169
You can see here: http://forum.etichettando.com/
May you help me, please?
Hi
I’m trying to make a new theme for bbPress but i’ve run into a problem. If a user is not logged in, and viewing a topic, he is being told:
Reply
You must log in to post.
The problem i have is that i do wish to have this text shown, but i want to customize it to fit with my theme. And this text is not to be found in the theme files. My guess is that bbPress adds the text from the core files.
Is there a way to add some code to the theme files, without modifying the core files, so that this can be shown the way i would like it to be shown?
Not sure who reads the WP feeds, so here’s an interesting snippet:
Mullenweg says he’ll use the new cash to fund more projects, including a new forums product. Called TalkPress, he said it will be “smaller, lighter, with fewer features but a richer customization API.”
In other words, it will work a lot like WordPress, which is a basic framework upon which users add the features they really need. Mullenweg some time ago created a forum program, BBPress, and the TalkPress service will be built on that.
“I spend a lot of time on forums, and they drive me crazy,” he said. “They haven’t changed in 10 years.”

I get the first:
“If you wanted to reset your password, you may do so by visiting the following address:
http://appleswitcher.com/wp/forum/bb-reset-password.php?key=4d8981628df36c3
If you don’t want to reset your password, just ignore this email. Thanks!”
Click that link which takes me to my page:
“Password Reset
Your password has been reset and a new one has been mailed to you.”
But the email never gets to my account, not even in Junk. Gmail *does not have this problem.* I just checked. It’s just Hotmail. Don’t know if it’s “them” or bbPress.
We are setting up bbpress to work with WP and a Perl program we developed in house. We have most of it working, except the forum always returns No Entries found and their isn’t a link to add a post, edit a post or anything, and in WP you can’t make comments. (other than that it is perfect). We would also like to make an attempt to login from either bbpress or WP get routed over to our system login page which uses our Perl program. please contact me at gwhite [at] healthstatus . com
I couldn’t find anything here on the bbPress site… I would like for email addresses that appear in posts to be transposed to something like “user [at] domain [dot] com”.
Is there a plugin, or an easy way to do this?
File uploads and attachments: like many others, I am highly interested in such a plugin. While I agree with the intent of the developers to keep bbPress light and awesome (which it is,) it certainly seems a shame to have to abandon bbPress because it does not provide for file uploads.
It’s my understanding that each post is given a unique identifier, visible as a URL parameter: id=38 for post 38, id=39 for post 39, etc.
Functionally, it seems a matter of creating an /uploads folder, and using a PHP upload/file management script to create a folder with the same name of the post ID in the /uploads folder.
I think one could add some PHP code in the topic page loop to parse the /uploads folder for folders whose names match the numbers of the post id’s displayed on that page, if-then display links to any files contained within those folders, if-not, then don’t.
Do I have the technical know-how to pull this off? Of course not. I barely got the forums installed and avatar plugin running on my server. But others lurking here with any PHP ninja skills might be able to.
Of course, there might be horrendous security risks that I’m not thinking of with this method. And the PHP code that scans the uploads folder for foldernames that match post id’s might ridiculously slow down the forums, as it constantly scans the filesystem instead of performing a quick database lookup.
But it might be a good start. Between all of us here in these forums, I am confident that we’ll eventually stumble across this much-needed functionality. Necessity is a mother…
I am logged in as admin synced with WP but cannot click the links to profile or logout
Latest WP and bbP
Here is the only location that appears relevant to me…. (not a php guy)
<p class="login">
<?php printf(__('Welcome, %1$s!'), bb_get_current_user_info( 'name' ));?> <?php bb_profile_link(); ?>
<small>(<?php bb_admin_link( 'after= | ' );?><?php bb_logout_link(); ?>)</small>
</p>Whatever that’s doing, it’s not writing any links for View profile, (Admin | Log out)
see it here http://www.homeinteriorart.com/hia/forum/ – unclickable 
It IS writing the link as viewing the source shows…. but it’s unusable
Hi All
Could someone please tell me how well BBPress works in fending of spam registrations please? Is it a case of using every means possible or is there a flawless way of doing it?
I am also wondering is there a user limit for BBPress. i.e. How many users would it support please? 100,000 – 1,000,000 or more?
I have a client that has been told that she will get a 1,000 spam registrations a day and that open source software cannot support more than a few thousand users. I want to direct her to this post. So hopefully we can encourage her.
Many thanks
Rich
