Re: WordPress + bbPress Integration 101

The essence of this is that it screws with the usermeta data in the database once you try and integrate WP functions, up to a point where even your admin account for WP doesn’t work anymore.

Here’s an example:

Variant1:

1. Upload bbP to the Server

2. Change the bb-config.php including the require_once line

3. Run the Installer

4. After Installation is finished you can’t log on to your WP admin anymore because the admin user suddenly has insufficient access rights, requiring a database restore.

Variant 2:

1. Upload bbP to the Server

2. Change the bb-config.php excluding the require_once line

3. Run the Installer

4. Add the require_once line after installation is finished

5. Your WP admin account is still working as it should and you can even use it for bbP, but with the Inactive user status.

Doesn’t make much sense, does it?
