  • sorry, took a break. that looks right to me, given your wordpress blog is at http://www.sitenameishere.com/wp/

    also, you’re missing the semi-colon at the end of the require line – after the end paren ); but you may just not have typed that in here. check for that, it would break a site. Otherwise, not sure. Assuming the bbpress install works fine with the default theme…

    you’re putting that code as the first line of config.php and nowhere else?

    it might be the way your wp header is set up in comparison to the bbpress templates. mine was completely simple:

    1. add the ONE php require line to config.php

    2. drop Aditya’s files into a subdirectory of my-templates with a style.css with a name section

    3. add bbpress styles to my wordpress theme stylesheet

    4. change template in the presentation dashboard

    Now I wanted my wordpress sidebar so I also added a div tag and sidebar include to those template files but otherwise haven’t had to change anything else.

    I’m working on this today too and followed Aditya’s instructions too and its got me in the right direction– I think what you missed is downloading his “my-template” that pulls all the wordpress header and footer info in for you automagically. It is in the last paragraph “..now you can just drop this template” and the link is:

    http://www.adityanaik.com/download/bb-my-template.zip

    Anyway, worked for me and only thing left is to customize the forum portions / content area.

    oh, you do need the ‘<?php require_once(‘/absolute/path/to/WordPress Parent Directory/wp-blog-header.php’) ?>’ as the very FIRST line of your bbpress config.php

    Hope that helps.
