Re: Plugins for WordPress integration

Hi Trent, thanks for the response :)

After installing WP (via fantastico) I uploaded the bbpress files to /forums/, set up database&user, ran the bbpress install script.

I then added the WP plugin as described above, activated it and configured it with bb_ (taken from my config.php).

I added a directory /forums/my-plugins/ and put the described bbpress plugin in there (although I probably didnt need to as it is a fresh install)

Below is my config.php that I edited as described (maybe I misunderstood somthing here?)

Thanks again for your help…

code

<?php

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘xxxxxx_xxxx’); // The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘xxxxxxx_xxxxx’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘xxxxx’); // …and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

// If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

// Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

// Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

$bb->domain = ‘http://awspress.com&#8217;; // Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com&#8217;

// There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

$bb->path = ‘/forums/’; // Example: ‘/forums/’

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘Amazon plugin for WordPress’;

// This must be set before running the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘simon@xxxx.com’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = true;

// The number of topics that show on each page.

$bb->page_topics = 30;

// A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

// Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

$bb->gmt_offset = 0;

// Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the

// chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

// For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BBLANG to ‘de’

// to enable German language support.

define(‘BBLANG’, ”);

// Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

// of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

// http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

$bb->akismet_key = ‘xxxx’;

// The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

// If you’re not, just leave the rest as it is.

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

$bb->wp_home = ‘http://awspress.com&#8217;; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://awspress.com&#8217;; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

require_once(‘/home/xxxxxxx/public_html/wp-config.php’);

/* Stop editing */

define(‘BBPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’ );

require_once( BBPATH . ‘bb-settings.php’ );

?>
