PHP call for bbPress root

   I am trying to use a call to navigate to the root directory in order to call on an include that is located in a directory outside of the bbPress directory.

   Is there anyone out there who could help me with a BB PHP command that will bounce me back to the root directory. I tried...
   <?php include('../../etc/etc'); ?> with out results.

   So, any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

   All the Best,
   Orion

   I would just use the full path on the server:

   <?php include
('var/usr/www/yourdirectory/whatever.file'); ?>

   That should work shouldn't it?

   Hmmm... I am going to have to dig into this a bit later. It looks like it is going to take some work. I am actually trying to integrate product advertisements that I have set up in wordpress to be pulled into my forum template. Not exactly sure how to do it. At first I imagined that I would create another directory in the root that both WP and bbP could share from, but I will have to check into this later.

   It would be awesome if WP and bbPress could share includes seamlessly.

   Anyhow, I have to get back to building the actual forum before I get caught up and miss our goal.

   If any other ideas or etc. come up, please share.

   Thanks Trent!
