I went with Inove in the end. Turned out pretty good:

I installed bbPress last night and integrated it with an existing wordpress site. However, this morning I was unable to log into my forum with my original keymaster username and password. I can log in with my username and password from my wordpress site, but it doesn’t have admin privileges so I am now unable to access the back end of my forum.

When I try to log in as the keymaster it tells me that the user does not exist. It also won’t let me retrieve my password since the user is not recognized.

I would love some help on this. I am new to wordpress and don’t have any programming experience, so if the answer is technical, please keep in mind that I might need a little extra hand holding. Thanks!

to display login, pass from BBPress in WP.

one solution is to use something like this (directly where you want to see it)

<iframe src=”mylogin.php” style=”width: 600px; height: 60px”

scrolling=”no” marginwidth=”0″ marginheight=”0″ frameborder=”0″ vspace=”0″ hspace=”0″>

</iframe>

login.php :

<?php

require_once(‘/home2/bulbpark/public_html/autograph/test/bbp/bb-load.php’);

if ( !in_array( bb_get_location(), array( ‘login-page’, ‘register-page’ ) ) ) login_form();

?>

Enjoy

I came across a theme today that has both a WordPress and a bbPress version:

http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/guangzhou

Are there any other themes people know of like this?

[Christiaan]

I’d like this too.

@sambauers Any progress on the bbpress live plugin?

[batrachoid]

Have you read this thread? https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/first-pass-at-a-fix-for-deep-integration-in-trunk

[migran]

well, yes that was exactly what i tried to do. but when i add in wp_config.php the following require_once(‘address/bb-load.php’);

it works but messes up wp-admin layout..

any idea hot to integrate properly?

thanks

[chrishajer]

Thanks for the info. Since your site is in English, it’s probably not using another language file. You’d have set it so you would know. It does appear to be integrated with WordPress? If so, what version WordPress and what do you do for integration?

[Rohan Kapoor]

You need to deep integrate bbpress into wordpress not the other way around.

Hi Guys,

I am new to bb and wp. Just installed the latest version of WP and BB. Database and cookie integration works great. Now i have a couple a questions about template/themes integration.

1. i want to use bbpress login system on both WP and BB (i.e. want to display login pass on WP).

here what i’ve tried to do:

a) in wp_config.php added require_once(‘address/bb-load.php’);

b) in the header.php (in themes) added

<div class=”login_bg”>

<?php if ( !in_array( bb_get_location(), array( ‘login-page’, ‘register-page’ ) ) ) login_form(); ?>

</div>

so it did the job, i was happy until i went to wp-admin and found out that it is messed up…

any suggestions?

2. What would you suggest for themes integration (to get the same feel and look)?

Thanks.

Has anyone actually got this working yet?

I’m running bbpress 1.0.2 and the latest WordPress 2.8.2. User and cookie integration is working perfectly, but I’ve been trying to do a “deep integration” so that I can use WordPress’s templates.

Whenever I try to include “wp-blog-header.php” in the config file like in past installations of bbpress, my forum spews a blank white page at me. I *know* that it’s finding the header file, because if I purposely change it to the wrong path, it’ll spew out an error at me.

Just to try it, I’ve also attempted to include wp-load.php, wp-config.php, as well and have ended up with the same blank page every time. At first I suspected it may be a permalinks issue, but even after disabling that the blank page persisted.

I started over from scratch. I’m still having the problem. I log into one, but the other remains logged out. Both bbpress and WPMU recognize my User information, but I have to log in or log out twice.

I’m looking at incorporating php_Free_Chat into my WordPress site. Others have been able to integrate it into their WordPress sites. I’m not sure if it can be directly integrated into bbPress; however, it may work if ‘deep integration’ is used (Sorry for mentioning DI, Sam).

php_Free_Chat is free, unless you remove the link button to their site.

Cimy swift SMTP for bbPress might be useful for you.

It is a remake of ‘Cimy Swift SMTP’ for bbPress.

I have been working on a site for a client and he just let me know that all the rss feeds are broken. I have tried downgrading to 1.0.1 and upgrading to 1.0.2 but in neither of them the feeds work. The rss displays the title but the rest is blank. For example: http://canadianrugby.ca/forums/rss/topic/canadian-players-overseas

wordpress is installed and deep integrated at http://canadianrugby.ca and bbpress is http://canadianrugby.ca/forums

Any help would be appreciated.

phpFreeChat is free, unless you remove the link button to their site, then there is a price structure that is based on the type of website you are hosting.

Here’s the link that discusses WordPress integration:

It is a little complicated to do it as it requires a lot of database modifications. I can do it for you. You can email me at rohan [at] rohan-kapoor.com

Hello chrishajer,

I am running WordPress 2.8.2 and BBPress 1.0. I have put it into a file called functions.php in the kakumei dir. because I am using the kakumei theme.

I noticed that the new functions file is address to wordpress mu. and I am not running wordpres mu. what should I do now. what code should I put in the header to call that functions to deliver the header. I know also that I neeed to change “wordpress_mu_primary_blog_id” to some that call the regular wordpress but what itis?

THANK U for sparing some time and help with me!

[chrishajer]

If you are using 1.0, create a file called functions.php in your current theme directory, and put all that code into it.

If you’re using less than 1.0, you can create a plugin from that code. Just add a plugin header to the top of all that, like this:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: WordPress pages for bbPress

*/

?>

And put it into file called something like wordpress-pages.php and drop that into folder called my-plugins at the same level as bb-plugins. If the folder is not there, you can create it. After it’s in the folder, log into the admin, you should see it there, then activate it. And report back how it worked for you.

Thanks

[aprendedor]

where will you put this file. and how would you link it to the theme? I would love to try it but I am not sure how to address it.

Ok. So I don’t want my wordpress anymore. However, I do want the forum. So what i need is the members from the site to be transfered to the forum with all their information intact along with the topics. I also want to move the forum from bbpress to the root. Thanks in advance.
