[resolved] Help integrating BBpress and WordPress

    • Posted 4 years ago #

    Here is my situation, I finally was able to install BBpress onto my server and got it to work, however, if you press any links in the bbpress it goes here

    http://www.thegi.net/word/bbpress/forum/geekincognito

    BBpress is installed here:

    http://www.thegi.net/word/bbpress/

    Naturally; word is installed here:

    http://www.thegi.net/word/ but you can access it here: http://www.thegi.net/

    What am I doing wrong ? Here is the config minus security PW's

    <?php

    // ** MySQL settings ** //
    define('BBDB_NAME', '*******'); // The name of the database
    define('BBDB_USER', '******'); // Your MySQL username
    define('BBDB_PASSWORD', '*****'); // ...and password
    define('BBDB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change these last few

    define('BBDB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); // If you are *upgrading*, and your old config.php does
    define('BBDB_COLLATE', ''); // not have these two contstants in them, DO NOT define them
    // If you are installing for the first time, leave them here

    // Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.
    $bb_table_prefix = 'bb_'; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

    // The full URL of your bbPress install
    $bb->uri = 'http://thegi.net/word/bbpress/';

    // What are you going to call me?
    $bb->name = 'TheG:I.Network';

    // This must be set before you run the install script.
    $bb->admin_email = 'ryan.a.neff at gmail.com';

    // Set to true if you want pretty permalinks, set to 'slugs' if you want to use slug based pretty permalinks.
    $bb->mod_rewrite = 'slugs';

    // The number of topics that show on each page.
    $bb->page_topics = 30;

    // A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.
    $bb->edit_lock = 60;

    // Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.
    $bb->gmt_offset = -6;

    // Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the
    // chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.
    // For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BBLANG to 'de'
    // to enable German language support.
    define('BBLANG', '');

    // Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage
    // of Akismet's powerful spam blocking, you'll need one. You can get an Akismet key at
    // http://wordpress.com/api-keys/
    $bb->akismet_key = '0123456789ab'; // Example: '0123456789ab'

    // The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.
    // If you're not, just leave it as it is.

    $bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix. Example: 'wp_';
    $bb->wp_home = 'http://thegi.net'; // WordPress - Options->General: Blog address (URL) // Example: 'http://example.com'
    $bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://thegi.net/word'; // WordPress - Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // Example: 'http://example.com'

    /* Stop editing */

    if ( !defined('BBPATH') )
    define('BBPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/' );
    require_once( BBPATH . 'bb-settings.php' );

    ?>

    Any pointers? As well, how would I adapt BBpress to the theme I have?

    You posted an hour ago! We are around to help, but not always right away! I am thinking it is the lack of an .htaccess file in your /bbpress/ folder on your server. Create that file and have the following in it and upload it and it might get you going:

    Options +MultiViews
