I spent most of the day trying to figure out (like many others) why buddypress groups and bbpress wasn’t integrating. In the end I managed to track down that, in my instance, the xmlrpc wasn’t working for some reason. The connection seems to be closed prematurely. When I eventually tracked down the fault to where the buddybar plugin gets included, and once I deactivated it, the xmlrpcs (and thus the integration) started functioning properly.
Please excuse if this has already been addressed in this thread, it’s been a long day, so don’t have the energy to read through everything right now, but I wanted to share what I found out in case it could help anyone else.
As soon as I can, I’ll try using the bleeding edge version and see if I can’t figure out what’s happening with the particular setup I’m working with to cause this to happen. The odds are good that it might even work without any fuss using the above-mentioned version.
