I’ve got wpmu and bbpress both installed and working. I’ve also got the user databases integrated for the most part. Things work well so far for the most part. If a user registers through wpmu the user is created and they are also able to login to bbpress. However, if a user registers through the forum they are not able to login to wpmu because no role is set.
I installed the bbpress-integration plugin <https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-integration/> to the mu-plugins directory which should fix the problem, no dice. I’ve read that some people just remove the bbpress registration and just make everyone register through wpmu to avoid this. That just seems dirty to me.
If anyone has any ideas I’d love to hear them 
I get a lot of questions on how to add more menutabs to the bbMenu. To be short: you can’t. This feature will be supported in the next version of bbMenu.
Since I am not a bad guy (and the next release can take a while), I’ve written a small plugin so you can add menu tabs. It is experimental, so read the read me text before using it!
You can download it here:

bbPortal 1.3 has some several bug fixes and minor code improvements:
– bbPortal now uses the bb_admin_add_submenu hook
– Topics that are marked as spam or are “deleted” will no longer show up at the portal page
– Textfields in the admin area will now return a value (if there is one) instead of leaving the fields blank
– Merged bbPortal and the bbMenu plugin. It’s no longer needed to have the bbMenu plugin installed
This is also the last version I release using the prototype libary. The next version will be jQuery based and smaller in size.

Hi there, here’s my first attempt on BBpress , although I have been pretty good at making website’s with WordPress but this was my first attempt to have a forum’s at my very new blog.
Here’s the link to my forums powered by BBpress.
http://www.aguywitha.com/_main/forum
I had a choice of integrating it with wordpress using the wordpress header and footer … but in my case i felt that designing a bbpress in itself like my wordpress theme was a bit easy for me as I was having some difficulties with integrating it with my blog interface … so I managed to make the default kakumei theme look my original wordpress blog theme … and integrate the users …
Although there will always be small changes being made on the forums as this was the first time i went through the BBpress code and I just love the simplicity.
Thanks a lot …
Hi
i have a website.It has its own login system that use session and cookie. I want to add bbpress to my site. How can i combine these two different login systems.
When a user login (logout) to my site, he should login (logout) from forum automatically.
Hi,
You can add values into a textfield like this:
<input type="text" name="number_of_topics" id="number_of_topics" value="<?php echo bb_get_option( 'bbp_number_of_topics' ); ?>"/>
Now there will be a value when the texfield is loaded. But what if there is no value, how can I let it show 0 then? using : 0 wont work.
Sec question:
Same tactics as above, but now with a ddlb. I can’t get this fixed. How can i show the value in a ddlb?
Got this:
<td><?php forum_dropdown(); ?></label></td> but where do I put that value thingy?
Many thx

I have read the other threads on this forum, tried the suggestions there, and no matter what I do I can’t seem to get permalinks working for bbPress.
At first I had wordpress configured to run in the root of my site (while physically being in /wordpress/) and thought that might be messing up bbpress, which is in a subfolder, so I disabled that feature of wordpress and configured it to run from the same folder where it is installed.
Even after doing this, I haven’t been able to get permalinks to work. I have tried both option +multiviews and the output from the rewrite php file, both without success. The error I get is “No input file specified.” I am saving the .htaccess file in the root of my forums folder. My forum is installed at http://www.u77.cc/forums/ and I am hosted with goDaddy. Permalinks are working with my wordpress and gallery2 installs.
Thanks,
