Re: BuddyPress 1.2.5.2 with WP 3.0.1 = No Forums?
I think most of us read the forums as a main listing, one group doesn’t necessarily get more interest than another.
It sounds as though all should be working so it’s hard to think what you should try now.
You are using the default BP theme? If not please do so for the purposes of testing, also disable any plugins you might also be running, except, of course, for BP itself.
You say that the .htaccess file is in place but can you actually confirm that it’s writable by the server when you update/change the permalink structure. Can you check that the DB tables are being created? Does your bb-config.php have the correct DB connection values?
