so my next working was;
i copy paste my bbpress01 rename it to bbpress02. then i went to the bb-config.php of bbpress02 and add these stuff in it:

$bb_table_prefix = 'bb2_';
define('CUSTOM_USER_TABLE', 'wp_users');
define('CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE', 'wp_usermeta');
define( 'COOKIEPATH', '/' );

Note: database of all 25 bbpress and 1 wordpress was same just changing in tables prefix like bb1_, bb2_ bb3_ to bb25 and add just custom user table code.

you can i also view the screenshot of work here is it.

for wp-config.php: http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/8249/wpconfig.jpg

for bbpress01 bb-config.php: http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/6034/bb1su.jpg

for bbpress 02 bb-config.php: http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/2746/bb2xa.jpg

so here i was successful which i want.

1. share users
2. shared database
3. cookies integration

but "One" thing is still remain :-(

if a user "john" login to my bbpress01. he should also show login status on my other 24 forums.

I think you can understand it. now i need cookies integration for other 24 bbpress.

cookies integration just was set b/w bbpress01 and wordpress. how can we set cookies for all my other remaining 24 forums.

I'll be great thankful to you if you try to solve my final step and give me the smart solution.

waiting for your reply with great curiosity :-)

1) Your first step is going to be to get all of the installs to use the same users table. Technically, you'll want to follow steps similar to the ones described here:
http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/successful-reverse-integration-steps

However, your job will be greatly complicated by the fact that each install will have overlaps in terms of userid and usernames. For example, userid #5 on bbPress install #1 is going to refer to a different user than userid#5 on bbPress install#2. You're going to have to address that - this link will help greatly:
http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-of-established-wp-and-bbpress-installations

2) Phew, it's good that they're all in the same database... hopefully your WordPress install is also in the same database. This will simplify things a bit.

3) Ok, good to know.

I can't offer custom help - I'm just a volunteer! But I'm glad to try and help you here, so others can learn from the discussion...

Here's what I would recommend:

1) Your first step would be to backup all of your data.
2) Then, I'd setup a test environment exactly like your current environment and put your data there. That way, you can work on the integration with much less stress. :-)
3) Then I would figure out how to deal with the userid and username overlap described above. This will probably be the hardest part!
4 ) Once you've figured that out, you're all set to integrate all the installs to use the same usertable.
5) Finally once that's done, you can also integrate the cookies so users only have to signin once!

If this sounds waaay too hard, you may want to hire a consultant or expert to help ya out! Here's a list of people who are available:

3. I'm using bbpress Version 1.0.2 and wordpress Version 2.8.5

Another request: is it possible to contact with you with IM?

A few questions for you:

1) You have 25 bbPress installs, and they are currently not sharing a user table... is that right? As in, if I sign up as "john" on one install... can I sign in with that username and password on another one of your bbPress installs?
2) If your bbPress installs are not sharing a user table... do you know if all of the user tables are in the same database?
3) Finally, what versions of WordPress and bbPress are you using?

another question......
tell me clearly about user shared login...... i want to share user logins between my 25 forums...... when one user register to my first forum i.e. bbpress01 then he can also use this id on my other 25 forums where he no need more registration for other 24 forums.

I'll very thankful to you if you solve this problem... i really love you :x

I now have about 10 bbPress installs all working, and they're both integrated with two separate WordPress installs. So this is definitely possible. :-) You just need to make sure that all the installs are using the same users table.

The bigger issue is: do any of your installs share usernames? For example, a "John" registered on one site and on another one? That will be tricky to manage - a path is described nicely here... look for the section on "user_id" conflicts:
http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integration-of-established-wp-and-bbpress-installations#post-28701

Good luck!

Note: I don't want to install 25 wordpress to integrate 25 forums.
Remember: 25 forums integration with one wordpress

Please Please Help me :(

It is very crucial situation for me ... tell me how to handle it. :(

• Cookie integration - Sharing of login cookies with WordPress
• User database integration - Sharing of user data tables with WordPress
• Deep integration - Including the WordPress codebase (PHP) inside bbPress to allow use of WordPress functions inside bbPress

I've heard it called a bunch of things:
* shallow integration
* simple integration
* regular integration
* standalone integration

Wondering if one of these terms emerging as the standard... what do you guys call this type of integration?

Does anyone know if bbPress 1.0 has built-in support for this? Or if a plugin along these lines has been built in the past year?

So there seems to be a disconnect between what the interface implies, and how the feature actually works (at least, as I'm understanding it).

bbPress really does work much differently than your typical forum, and it takes a little massaging to make it feel like phpBB or vBulletin.

Does anyone know if there are plans to fix this in future versions? Or is this the way it's supposed to work from now on...

You could try at the start of the forum.php template
global $super_stickies;
or maybe
$stickies=array_merge($stickies,$super_stickies);
but php may renumber the topics causing it to fail.
or try
$stickies=$stickies+$super_stickies;

Of course this will show all super stickies in each forum.

A real plugin would have to be written to do this properly.

I've tried modifying the code in forum.php to include the $super_stickies like on the front page but without success...

<?php if ( $topics || $super_stickies || $stickies ) : ?>

Is there a workaround?

I'm after a plugin that shows related topics on a WordPress article (so you'd be able to show related posts and related topics on the forum).

So if I were to write a post about Britney, it would show up to 5 threads in bbPress that have either been tagged with Britney or based on the content in the thread.

Any idea if such a plugin exists, or if there already is a way to do this?

From the mediawiki side, you could do something as simple as

require('./bb-load.php');
wp_set_auth_cookie( (int) $user_id,0 );

Which will create the bbPress cookie. Where $user_id is the user's bbPress id. Since you are using the same user table, it should be available?

Once everything is looking good, we'll migrate the live site to use bbPress 0.9.0.2. Then I'll install this plugin - excited!

Yah Mediawiki is tricky stuff. The worst part is that the cookies don't truly integrate! I used a plugin to get both software reading off of the same bbPress users table... so that works. But you have to re-sign in manually as you click from the blog/boards to the wiki... alas.

Will keep you posted on the plugin!!

MediaWiki is tricky indeed. I looked at installing it for a minute and gave up another minute later.

It's a little tricky since we've integrated our bbPress with a WordPress and a MediaWiki installation... plus dozens of bbPRess plugins. But we'll get it working soon, and I'll send that donation off!

Make sure you install the Human Test plugin with it.

Thanks so much,
John

If you don't need them to verify via a link in the email this could be written in an hour as a plugin. The code for password entry with re-entry verification can be lifted from the 1.0 alpha source.

I do recommend you use my Human Test plugin however.
