bbPress Trac

Trac is the place to follow along with the development of bbPress. You can track changes in the  Timeline section of this site. There is also an  RSS feed and a  mailing list for those interested.

Bugs reports are also kept on Trac. If you are looking to submit a bug report, please  head on over.

You may login to this site using your bbPress.org/WordPress.org/BuddyPress.org username and password. If you don't already have one, sign up at  the forums.

You can browse the source here, but you probably want to check out bbPress using Subversion.

Security Issues

If you have encountered a security issue that isn't addressed in a released version of bbPress, please contact security (at) wordpress.org with detailed information.

Contributing

There are  many ways to contribute to bbPress. If you want to get started quickly,  test a patch, or  grab a bug and see if you can reproduce the problem it describes. Don't miss the  test automation tools.

If you have an idea for a feature, but not the ability to code it yourself, share your idea in the  bbPress Forums.

The Life of a Ticket

 Reporting Bugs in the  WordPress Codex tells how to report a bug, what all the  keywords we use in Trac mean, and more.

Notification

If you would like to receive notification when a ticket you have submitted or are interested in changes, please configure your email address in trac after you have logged in by going to the  Preferences page.

Then when you add your user name to the (cc) on a ticket, you will be notified of any comments or changes to that ticket going forward.
