WordPress in the root of the domain, bbPress in a folder. You do create a directory called forum and copy the files there. </p> <p>If you are not including WordPress in your bbPress, then you won't need this plugin to correct the WordPress 404 errors:<br /> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-wordpress-mu-or-not-leads-to-404-errors-but-pages-still-load#post-13156" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-wordpress-mu-or-not-leads-to-404-errors-but-pages-still-load#post-13156</a></p> <p>Try your installation without that plugin first. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/install-doesnt-work-with-bbpress-on-wordpress-25-site#post-15745 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 16:05:17 +0000 MarcoZ 15745@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi!<br /> I'm in a similar situation. However my WordPress files are simply at <a href="http://www.marcozehe.de," rel="nofollow">www.marcozehe.de,</a> and I would like bbPress to be in <a href="http://www.marcozehe.de/forum." rel="nofollow">www.marcozehe.de/forum.</a> How do I do that? I don't mean simply creating the directory and copying the files there, but configuring things correctly so WordPress doesn't consider the /forum folder to be one of its kind.</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Marco </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/install-doesnt-work-with-bbpress-on-wordpress-25-site#post-15410 Tue, 15 Apr 2008 22:21:14 +0000 psheerin 15410@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>OK, I found the problem. I had jumped ahead and installed the .htaccess file for pretty permalinks.
