Fixed now.

Andy upgraded to WPMU 2.8.1 without changing the cookie version in bbPress.

Let that be a lesson to all of you!

Those experiencing difficulty with posting should find their problems are now gone.

This generally only happened to people who had registered elsewhere (like bbPress.org or WordPress.org) and were trying to post on these forums for the first time.

Also, you will now notice that you can add tags at the same time as replying.

For those of you who have the authority to delete tags, that now works again too.

Looks like it’s working, huh?

@Matew: You are right.

I don’t think bbPress XML-RPC relies on PHP having an XML-RPC extension turned on.

Other peoples problems have been related to their hosting company not allowing remote calls to be made to the same server.

When this is the case the host generally recommends running the sites on two separate servers somehow.

There is some craziness in the way the forums component is architected to integrate via XML-RPC, but it got the component over the line for 1.0. Better solutions should probably be sought for the next release.

It’s my intention to make bbPress integration with WPMU and BuddyPress even simpler and better over time. Many changes have already been made to both WPMU and bbPress core to help BuddyPress along and that cooperation will exist in the future.
