I must confess that despite having a reasonable knowledge of wordpress I'm fairly new to buddypress, and therefore don't fully understand the relationship between buddypress and bbpress.
I've installed this plugin at http://www.punknews.co.uk but can't see any of the features, is that because I'm using BBpress (or at least I think I am)?

if you are using the default buddypress theme, then you should see little thumb up and down icons. however if you're not using the default theme you need to add the appropriate action hooks so they will show.

Alas I have using the default buddypress theme with the following plugins but can't see the cute little thumbs up and down icons.
Current plugins I'm using (all are up to date):
Askismet
BackupWordPress
bbPress
bbPress2 BBcode
bbPress post toolbar
bbPress quotes
bbp signature
BuddyPress (set to site-wide forums)
Buddypress rate forum posts
Buddypress tweet button
Contact form 7
Page links to
Really simple CAPTCHA
Simple page ordering
Social login
User role editor
ah, the plugin was build when buddypress only used group forums, not site-wide forums so that could be the issue. I'll take a look.
There seems to be a bug with buddypress when you install group forums and then try to uninstall, and install site-wide forums - it won't work. under the hood, two very different things are going on. Sorry i can't help more.

Hi Deryk,
Would you mind stating in FAQs that your plugin does not work with site-wide forums and bbPress? This will save people, like me, time from trying to figure out why it's not working!
Thanks for creating such a nice plugin.
