Re: Forums Home URL

I am using bbpress 2.0, but when I try to login to the forums with user names that were created in the blog, it doesn’t work.

I have a folder named “forums” (mysite.com/forums/) in my directory that has wordpress installed in it. That’s where I have bbpress installed also. So “mysite.com/forums/” is the URL to my bbpress forums.

I have a blog on my site at “mysite.com”. WordPress is also installed in that directory (mysite.com/). So I have two wordpress installs. One in the “forums” folder and one in the root directory (mysite.com/).

One wordpress install is meant to manage and run the blog, the other wordpress install is meant to run and manage the forums.

I would need to do two things. I would need wordpress with bbpress to communicate with the database that the wordpress with blog uses so that the users are shared between the blog and the forums. I would also need the forums breadcrumb directory to be in this format: “Index/Forum Name/Topic Name”. For some reason, regardless of what I’ve tried so far, the breadcrumbs still show “Index/Forums/Forum Name/Topic Name”. The “Forums” link in the breadcrumbs doesn’t link to anything. Also, “Index” is a page that I created to be the main page for the forums. It lists the index of the categories and forums.
