    That codex page refers to the standalone bbPress script, and not the bbPress plugin.
    Yeah, I know it’s a little bit confusing!

    Right now, there is no integration between BuddyPress and the bbPress plugin, however you can still use BuddyPress group forums and the bbPress plugin separately.

    I would recommend changing your bbPress plugin slug to something else.

    Login to the WP admin dashboard and navigate to “Settings > Forums”.

    Next, change “Forum Base” to something other forums like “discuss”. This should hopefully fix your issue.

    bbPress plugin forums will be located at /discuss. BuddyPress group forums will be located at /group-forums/ (make sure you also go through the BP forum setup in the WP dashboard under “BuddyPress > Forum Setup”).

    Thanks for getting back to me!

    Yeah… That’s not what I’m looking for at all.

    Is there anyway to get the bbpress script to work with the Buddypress plugin? I really think that the stripped down bbpress that’s included in Buddypress kinda blows and needs a lot more features before I could actually use it.

    BuddyPress will be properly integrated with the bbPress plugin in v1.4. Until then, you’ll have to make due with the existing setup.

    Is there an ETA for v1.4 (the release when BuddyPress will be properly integrated with the bbPress plugin)?

    1.4’s a long, long way off. I suspect true bbPress plugin integration will make it into one of the 1.3.x point releases.
