Put these two lines in bb-config.php (located in bbPress root) to make bbPress use WordPress user tables.
$bb->custom_user_table = 'wp_users';
$bb->custom_user_meta_table = 'wp_usermeta';
And similarly you can make bbPress to use another bbPress user tables.
$bb->custom_user_table = 'bb_users';
$bb->custom_user_meta_table = 'bb_usermeta';
All installations should be in the same database for this to work
A created a Ticket here regarding a fatal error in the plugin but it seems that it’s not visible in the list…
So I would like to post it here again:
After installing the plugin an fatal error occurs, I think that it’s a conflict between bbPress and WP_Query.
The full error is: Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in C:xampphtdocswordpress10wp-includesquery.php on line 27
I use something like this:
$args=array(
‘cat’ => $wpimpress_cat->cat_ID,
‘posts_per_page’ => 1
);
$temp = $wp_query;
$wp_query = null;
$wp_query = new WP_Query($args);
if( have_posts() ) :
while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post();
//loop here!!!
endwhile;
endif;
$wp_query = $temp;
wp_reset_query();
Please check this, and make the plugin to work!
I am not completely familiar with bbPress yet, I understand that the cookie information has to match in each admin section. Where is it that you have to tell a secondary install, to use the primary installs user information.
Is that done in the Admin modules for WordPress integration, or is there a config file where you can point the secondary install look-ups/selects to the primary install?

The only thing not possible with bbPress is to run multiple forums from a single setup (something like Network or Multisite feature of WordPress).
For all other questions asked above, it can be done.

From what I understand, bbPress does allow you to share a single user table, as well as login cookies, between multiple sites. I’m not sure if you can have one forum shared among several sites, though. I’m basing that on info that’s nearly a year old, though, so it’d be nice to have someone give some up-to-date info on how this might be done.

I have just installed the newest version of bbPress to test out. I’ve installed it as a subdomain under the main domain (WordPress). I want to use bbPress as a stand alone forum…not integrated with WordPress
The default theme does not work and in the appearance panel neither of the two default themes show their screenshots. I’ve checked and rechecked my folder & file permissions which are set to 755. I created a my-templates folder and moved a copy of kakumei to this folder from bb-templates. I’ve checked the permissions on these files, 755, and switched to the new theme/location with no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
I’m not pro at this but include your css file for your wordpress site on your forum site, then you just copy the code for you bar and paste it into the forum header.

I think I am going to uninstall bbPress for now and wait until they make it into a plug-in for WordPress, which they said might happen as early as next month. So, hopefully the whole process will be a lot simpler.

This is my second time asking this question along with another poster. When is the plugin to be ready and available on wordpress.org?
It was my understanding that the plugin was to be released at the end of 2010
Nothing is zipped. It is all unzipped into a directory called “acidhouse” and ready to rock. Or maybe I am not understanding what you are saying. But at least I can get to the forum now, along with simultaneously being signed into my WordPress Admin and my bbPress Admin. The only difference is, this time it lets me see my forum where as before it would give me an error. So there is a little bit of progress, but I would still like to know how to get rid of the SQL errors.

No! You can hack your way out by deep integration though.
Read this tutorial I wrote
But also read the advantages disadvantages of deep integration.

basically what I’m asking is can I upload a WP theme to bbpress the normal way as I always have done using WP?
Thanks all!

If you aren’t using the experimental plugin version which can be downloaded only by the SVN repository THEN you aren’t actually using a WordPress plugin.
bbPress is a standalone software.
