If the login integration is working, you just need to create a theme for bbPress that looks like the one you’re using for WordPress. Most people who are used to downloading WordPress themes don’t really like going that route, but until there are more themes released for both bbPress and WordPress, or if bbPress becomes a plugin for WordPress, that’s the best way to achieve the same look for WordPress and bbPress.
In reply to: bbPress in spanishIn reply to: need help with Transparent background..You’re going to need to add an extra div in there, to wrap around everything in the middle that you don’t want to have a transparency on (so you can make it white or grey.) Right now, there is no element you can apply that background to without affecting the header and the nav. So, you need to add a new div that starts right after the nav, and ends right after the footer, then you need to give that a background color or more opacity.
You also have some weird inheritance going on with the CSS. There are at least four stylesheets loading. Hard to see right off the bat which one is messing with you.

In reply to: bb press beginnerbbPress is not a plugin for WordPress, it requires a separate installation. Did you already do that?
It sounds like you want something simpler than what bbPress offers. Have you checked out forum plugins for WordPress?

My guess is that you need to enter a host where the database lives, and you haven’t done that in bbPress. What are the connection details from wp-config.php? There should be four of them:
database name
database user name
database user password
database host
If you have something set for database host for wp-config.php and WordPress, you will need to give that same information to bbPress. There is a checkbox at the bottom of the fields for database details that says “advanced settings” or something like that. Clicking that reveals the place where you enter the host.
If it’s not that, then did you have something wrong. Did you edit the bb-config.php directly or use the installer? If you edited bb-config.php, be sure you changed the name of the constants from WP specific ones to BB specific ones.
Connecting to the database has nothing to do with a path or folder, and the way you installed it will be fine when you integrate.
I think the problem has been reported but no resolution yet:
In reply to: Sneak peek at bbPress.org 2.0There was talk in one of the meetups, or maybe email, that WordPress.org was getting a makeover, so they didn’t want to emulate the current wp.org in a design for bb.org, then have bb.org stuck with the outdated look (again) once wp.org is redesigned. I can’t find it in the IRC logs so maybe that was in email correspondence.
In reply to: RSS Feed for every entryWhat is an entry? There are RSS feeds for each forum, which would list new posts in that forum. That would cover someone adding a new topic or a reply to an existing topic.
I guess no one has seen it before. The only information I can find about that error is from Google, and not pertaining to bbPress.
The only servers it’s buggy on are localhost installations and some WAMP servers, with PHP 5.3. Other than that, it normally works just fine.
In reply to: Topics-in-tag count incorrectDid you try disabling the tag related plugin?
In reply to: Cannot login – Uninstall?If you’re using pretty permalinks, the rewrite rules in your .htaccess will need to be changed:

There is also a way to override the information in the database by adding it to your bb-config.php:

In reply to: bbPM blank pageThe 500.php shown in that log leads me to believe you are getting a 500 error “Internal Server Error”. Unfortunately, this error log does not show what’s causing the 500 error, which is what is causing your blank screen. We need to find out what’s causing the 500 error.
You can add this to the .htaccess file in your forum root to display all errors to the screen, if you cannot find the logs:
ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);If your host prevents that in your .htaccess, you will have to try something different. There is lots of information online about either custom logging for PHP or displaying PHP errors to the screen.
In reply to: bbPM blank pageDepends on your host. Sometimes in the hosting control panel there will be logs and one will be an error log. It all depends on your host. If your host does not have error logs, you will need to do some error logging or display of your own.
In reply to: bbPM blank pageDo you have access to error logs? That will help pinpoint why the white page is coming up.
In reply to: Old VersionAdditionally confusing is that 0.9.* and 1.0.* are basically different branches. 1.0.* is not necessarily an improvement of what is in 0.9.*. It’s totally different.
In reply to: Old VersionWow Trent, how’s it going?!
In reply to: Can't access bb-admin, under some conditionsThis is because integration was not done properly. The cookies are not compatible between WordPress and bbPress.

Wordpad is evil. For plain text, better to use notepad or the far better, for syntax highlighting, notepad++
If the blog does not work, and you edited the wp-config.php, I would guess that the edit there was done incorrectly. Either that or the integration you did was not done correctly. Hard to tell what might be wrong without seeing it, and posting and edited version here might destroy some of the evidence.
Do you have an editor with syntax highlighting that might be able to point out a simple error?
In reply to: Cant log in – error messageBen L, does adding this to bb-config.php still work? (the value in bb-config.php overrides the value from the database):
$bb->uri = 'http://www.example.com/forum/';In reply to: Cant log in – error messageIt sounds like something still thinks buddypress exists. Maybe the uninstallation was not complete?
In reply to: Tags problemI’ve often wondered about indexing the tag pages anyway and wondered if there was a duplicate content penalty from Google. For WordPress, the Robots Meta plugin by Joost recommends
noindexfor tag pages. That doesn’t resolve your problem but I wonder if getting them indexed is the solution to any problem or if they shouldn’t be indexed in the first place.In reply to: Tags problemHow about a link to your forum?
In reply to: 403 Forbidden Error w/ bb-login.phpncsilva how about posting a link to your forum?
