'"require_once('/path/to/wp-blog-header.php');"' into my bbpress config.php file:

I use my own theme for worpdress. Any body can help me about my problem?

Disable your Ultimate tag warrior :) Im also using k2 and had to disable UTW.

If u really want to use UTW, u need to edit bbpress code to replace the existing is_tag function

I already told mdawaffe about this problem. Donno if they want to change is_tag function name to something else :)

Can u help me?

.postform textarea {
height: 12em;
margin: 5px 0;
padding: 5px;
width: 720px; //Edit the width to fit your page.
display: block;
}

Basically, to clarify the process even more...

/// open '/bbpress/conf.php' and at the top, after the opening '<?php' put the following:

'"require_once('/path/to/wp-blog-header.php');"'

Then, in your 'my-templates' directory, create the following files:
header.php
'<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">
<div class="post" id="post-forum">
<div class="entry">'

footer.php
'</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>'

You will still have to tweak the code, but that's all it took for me.
You'll need to add the styles from the non-header/footer portions of the bbpress css files to your WP style sheet.

Check my test-forum out... http://nolageek.com/forums

One thing I can't figure out though... when you're viewing a topic, the "reply" form is WAAAAYYYY too long. I've edited this in every form I can see, but this isn't changing..

Why are there so many edit forms? Where is this one?

What is this? I get it when I go to my forums page in the URL.

Can you try say it again, simpler? I don't understand #2 onwards...

Put this inside config.php "require_once('/path/to/wp-blog-header.php');"

2. Use wp template tag inside your bbpress template.

For example. Make a clean header.php and put "<?php get_header(); ?>". Replace it with your bbpress-template header.php.

To make sure bbpress gonna look alike your wp static page. I suggest u try refer single.php or page.php inside your wp theme folder.

Here is my example. Using Kubrick page.php

//Start Header.php
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">
<div class="post" id="post-forum">
<div class="entry">
//End Header.php

//Example item = front-page.php

//Start Footer.php
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
//End Footer.php

So everytime u load bbpress index.php you will get the same page like your static wp page.

3. Add some of bbpress css style inside your wp css file.

Im sure u not gonna use all bbpress style maybe only some of it. Maybe you can start copy bbpress style from this point "/* Front Page=================================== */" untill the end.

I dont know if this gonna help you but i try my best to keep it simple :) hope it gonna do some help.

Side note: to load bbpress as wp static page. Create new page, and set "post slug" = "bbpress folder"

I simply want to do two things:
1. Make BBPress look like my current theme, or use the same CSS.
2. Load BBpress as a Page, so that my Sidebar and navigation remains as is.

At this point, I can find info on making BBPress look like my theme, but I undertand almost none of it. I need it typed more simply. Also, I can't find any info on making BBpress a Page.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
