I went with Inove in the end. Turned out pretty good:
http://hawaii-gov.net/forum/
The download link on that site appears to be broken.
Actually it’s not just can’t login into admin area, it’s can’t appear to login to forum at all.
Have you got the code at the top of your config file? That was the problem I ran into. I was able to use a relative path once I did that too. So the start of your config file should look something like this:
<?php
require_once('../wp-blog-header.php');
Oh, I’ve just noticed this all written by the plugin!! Ha. I’ll remove it and see what happens.
Edit: strange, I’ve deactivated the plugin and remove the code from the .htacess file, and the forum is accessible. But I was also expecting to start getting the 404 errors again, and I’m not.
I expect I have not got to the end of this problem
Edit 2: Indeed, my WP permalinks aren’t working now. This integration thing really is an up hill battle.
Hi Chris, I’ve got access to access logs, if that would help.
It appears to be .htaccess related. If I remove the .htaccess file from the WP directory my forum is accessible.
I’ve forgotten the timeline of what I was working on now (can’t multitask very well!) but it’s possibly related to this plugin that I’ve installed to get rid of a 404 problem: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/strange-redirections-and-404s-after-wp-integration
Although when I deactivate this plugin it doesn’t make any difference. Here’s the htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^forum/topic /forum/topic.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^forum/forum /forum/forum.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^forum/tags /forum/tags.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^forum /forum/index.php [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
– when I try to view the “Admin” account profile, I get a wordpress 404 at www/forum/profile/admin.
– Clicking on any topics or forums (I believe I created them before the integration?) even a view of topics with no replies I get the same 404.
I’m getting exactly the same thing. Haven’t tried creating and logging in with a different user yet. Did you resolve this elorg?
Solved, my problem was I needed to change <?php bb_get_header(); ?> to <?php get_header(); ?> in the bbPress theme files, but I also needed to move require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); up to the top of my config file.
It would be useful if both these aspects were mentioned in the Functions section of https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/
Who can I contact to suggest these changes to that page?
Do I need to add some code to the bbPress theme to call the header maybe?
