Inserting path/to/wp-blog-header.php

  1. i Read somewhere

    "In order to do it, you need to put require_once('path/to/wp-blog-header.php'); in bbPress’ bb-config.php (wp-blog-header is in the same directory as WordPress’ wp-config.php file)."

    Where do I exactly insert this code in wp-config.php file?: require_once('path/to/wp-blog-header.php'); ??

    This is what i see in my wp-config.php file. Thanks

    <?php
    /**

    * Secret Keys and bbPress Language. You can get the MySQL settings from your

    *

    *
    * @package bbPress

    // ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //

    define( 'BBDB_NAME', 'metroadv' );

    /** MySQL database username */
    define( 'BBDB_USER', 'metroadv' );

    define( 'BBDB_PASSWORD', 'xxxxxx' );

  2. It goes in bb-config.php, not wp-config.php, but I'd put it right at the top, after the opening <?php:

    <?php
    require_once('path/to/wp-blog-header.php');
    /**

    The path/to/wp-blog-header.php it not to be typed literally. It will be a filesystem path, something that is dependent on where WordPress is installed on your server. Be sure you change the path to the correct value for your installation.

  3. Ok, I have inserted it. nothing change tho, the forum theme still look different with the main blog. :(

  4. Adding that to bb-config.php just allows you to use WordPress functions in bbPress. What did you want to happen?
