Search function & permalinks // Bug with newest bbPress-version

[leanderbraunschweig]

First of all: I'm not sure if "trunk" refers to the latest bbPress-version (2.4) – therefore I've set it to 2.3.2 but it occured with 2.4 (!)

After updating to 2.4 the search function broke – it was made to use "pretty" permalinks now but for me this resulted in 404 errors because the URLs weren't recognized.

There is a workaround for this – setting the permalink-base to end with an additional "/" fixes it. I am not sure as to why this happens but I am surely willing to help fix the issue for further versions.

Please refer to this forum topic also: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-2-4-error-search-stopped-working

I'll grant admin-access if needed. Please ask for any other necessary information.

Thanks for developing & maintaining bbPress!
Regards,

Henning

Moving to 2.4.1 to research a fix.

In 5118:

Replace user_trailingslashit() with trailingslashit() in bbp_get_search_results_url(). Fixes issues with search results pages missing a slash when the permalink structure does not include a trailing slash by default. Fixes #2441. (2.4.1)
