You can change them to something else if you like, but make sure they are different for WordPress, bbPress, and anything else you might install in that database.</p> <p>Integration does not require the same table prefix, and using the same table prefix means bbPress will try to use WordPress tables (of the same name) that have already been created. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpbb-integration-admin-problem#post-17113 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 16:12:49 +0000 laran 17113@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I got my wordpress working again by making the following change.</p> <p>I changed this: a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}</p> <p>to this: a:1:{s:13:"administrator";b:1;}</p> <p>Now I think I've got to figure out how to undo the bbpress installation and do it again properly.

Adminstrators in WP don't automatically get admin status in bbPress. What I would suggest is finding out who is the key master in bbPress, login as them and add the user you want as admin with key master or admin status.</p> <p>If you are unsure who is key master, I believe a search in the db should let you know, or just check out:</p> <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/185?replies=5#post-909" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/185?replies=5#post-909</a></p> <p>Trent </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpbb-integration-admin-problem#post-2543 Fri, 22 Dec 2006 00:39:15 +0000 chrishajer 2543@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have WP and bbPress integrated and have no problem logging in as admin in WP then also being admin in bbPress. I have the opposite problem (not really a problem): when I log into bbPress as a normal user, and I try to access wp-admin, it gives me an error about not having sufficient permissions. In wp-admin &gt; users, I edited the permissions for the "normal" bbPress user, and he can act as admin at WP now. Never tried to admin bbPress as that user...</p> <p>I think it's probably something else: I did not require the hack you are suggesting to make this work.</p> <p>In bbPress, does it say:<br /> <code>Welcome, admin! View your profile» (Admin | Logout)</code><br /> up top?</p> <p>If it does, clicking the Admin link there will take you to the bbPress dashboard. Is that not happening for you? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpbb-integration-admin-problem#post-2539 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 23:56:39 +0000 bakedlogdotcom 2539@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have successfully integrated Wordpress and BBPress (<a href='http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/12?replies=25#post-2502'>http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/12?replies=25#post-2502</a>) but I am having 1 problem..</p> <p>When I log in as admin in BBPress, it seems to be logging me in with the 'admin' account from Wordpress, and not giving it admin privileges on the BBPress system, (ie: i can't go to /bb-admin to edit anything).</p> <p>The only thing i can think of is somehow excluding the 'admin' account integration when you log into bbpress, something like</p> <p><code><br /> if ($user=='admin') { #skip integration }<br /> </code></p> <p>Or is there something I am missing..?</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> -BHensley.com<br /> -Bakedlog.com </p>
