Integrating BBPress with and existing (x)html site
-
Is it possible to integrate a bbpress forum into an existing site (so i don’t have to mess around with making a theme for bbpres) by using php functions? I am not very good (that is an overstatement) at php. I followed a tutorial that let me integrate a wordpress blog into my site, and this is the code it gave me
<?php define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);require('wordpress/wp-blog-header.php'); ?>

<body>
<div id="stage">
<div id="sidebar">
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')
|| !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
<h3>Categories</h3>
<div id="blog-categories">

<?php
list_cats(FALSE, '', 'ID', 'asc', '', TRUE, FALSE, TRUE,
TRUE, TRUE, FALSE, FALSE, '', FALSE, '', '', '', TRUE);
?>
</ul>

<div id="blog-archives">

</ul>

<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<div id="content">

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<span class="blog-entry-language">
<?php if(function_exists('lp_other_langs')) {
//display existing language versions of the post
lp_other_langs(' ','', '', '', '');
}?></span>
</div>
<div class="blog-entry-body"><?php the_content(); ?></div>
<div class="blog-entry-comments">
<?php edit_post_link(__('Edit This')); ?> |
<?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)'), "",
__('Sorry, comments are closed for this item.')); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<h2><?php _e('Not Found'); ?></h2>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, but no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<form method="get" class="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>/">
<div>
<input type="text" size="20" value="<?php echo wp_specialchars($s, 1); ?>" name="s" class="s" />
<input type="submit" class="submit" value="<?php _e('Search'); ?>" />
</div>
</form>
<?php endif; ?>
<div style="text-align:center;">
<?php posts_nav_link(' — ', __('« Previous Page'), __('Next Page »')); ?>
</div>
</body>
what would i have to do to get bbpress integrated into my site? I heard somewhere that the function names are very similar to wordpress, so what code would i put in to get the forum categories then the recent posts, etc.?
