   I installed muwordpress (with directories not subdomains) and bbpress and integrated them.. I added

   RewriteRule ^(.*/)?forum/(.*) forum/$2 [L,R]

   to the .htaccess in the wp directory and it worked before i added the code

   define('WP_BB', true);
   if ( !defined('DB_NAME') ) {
   require_once('/home/.atrax/armsteadj/myiowa-news.com/blogs/wp-config.php');
   }

   into the bb-config.php file to get integration to work.. now it gives me a loop error..? any ideas on how to get the htaccess file to forward the directory to it?

   Thanks!

   opps, I mean when i put

   RewriteRule ^(.*/)?forum/(.*) forum/$2 [L,R]

   it takes it back to the /blog directory.. but when i put

   RewriteRule ^(.*/)?forum/(.*) forum/$2 [R,L]

   it gives me the redirect error..

   Alright, i tested a few more things and it is definitely a problem when i include the wp-config.php file in bb-config.php.. here is the htaccess file im using: if i try and forward it to a directory like "forumtest" with nothing in it it will work perfectly.. and if i take out that require it will load fine as well.. but with errors because it cant find the functions that file defines..

   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /blogs/

   #uploaded files
   RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
   RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]

   # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/wp-admin$
   RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /$1/ [R=301,L]

   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
   RewriteRule . - [L]
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(forum) $2 [L]
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
   RewriteRule . index.php [L]

   <IfModule mod_security.c>
   <Files async-upload.php>
   SecFilterEngine Off
   SecFilterScanPOST Off
   </Files>
   </IfModule>

   That wpmu tag is going to be your best friend:
   http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/wpmu
   Not many people with wpmu experience here.
   I know Trent Adams uses it though (he's also on IRC)
   Also, wpmu 2.6 is a no-go with bbPress 0.9 because of cookies.

   thanks _ck_,

   It seems to be a problem with when you include the wp-config... There must be a check somewhere in one of the files included in it that checks if that has been registered or is a banned blog, and wp-admin must be hardcoded in somewhere to be a safe directory.. i just havent had time to go through and look for where that happens.. been making a bunch of other customizations instead, as this problem can be solved by just using sub-domains..
