You’re going to have to either type the address manually or code the link into your template:

if($is_bb)
	echo 'Admin';

Assuming everything is installed and configured correctly it shouldn’t matter whether it is live or local (of course that is a big assumption). Really I can’t say for sure what is happening here other than that for whatever reason the get_header() function is not being found. Normally this would me that the necessary file (wp-blog_header) is not being included.

Did you include wp-blog-header.php in your bbpress config file?

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in D:\xampp\htdocs\blog\bbpress\bb-templates\kakumei\front-page.php on line 1

how to fix it?

I’m using localhost

blog address

http://localhost/blog/

bbpress address

http://localhost/blog/bbpress/

The background is gone because you have conflicting style sheets. From the tutorial:
“If you look at your forum now, you’ll probably see a terrible mess. This is because your WordPress style sheets and your bbPress style sheets conflict. Make sure you remove any elements that are directly conflicting with those in your WordPress theme (ie header, sidebar, footer elements).”

The login/register button is missing it was a component of your bbpress header. Also from the tutorial:
“Most likely all of your bbPress navigation (ie login, admin panel, logout) buttons are gone. If you correctly integrated WordPress cookies login and logout shouldn’t be a problem. To replace any links that were lost, code them directly into your WordPress theme, using the $is_bb variable to only display them on the forum.”

In other words, you’ll have to hard code new login/register links into bbpress like so:


Login

The brackets [] just indicate that it is a place holder. Remove them.
