So, you can access the forum and the blog? Is everything back to normal?
I did a search around the forum and I couldn’t see an easy way to embed bbPress within a WordPress page.
Is this gonna be possible in future releases?
Thanks,
I think I’m asking for theme integration.
I have seen other WordPress forums where you create a page, insert a one line HTML(?) code, and the forum will appear in that page. I was wondering if something similar can be done with bbPress, so that I can make it appear within my theme, here. Thanks,
Another note, the Internal Server Error yesterday was fixed by correcting the .htaccess file.
At present it reads:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Oh wow, I am able to get into my wordpress admin.
Yes, wp-config.php is on the root, bb-config.php is off the root in a /bbpress folder.
Other than opening the wp.config.php to check on secret keys and all that, I haven’t done anything with it.
Yesterday, I did move the wordpress install to the root. I had worked out all the kinks though, and everything was working well. I did have an Internal Server Error for awhile though, but that was fixed. It was discussed here, https://wordpress.org/support/topic/205960?replies=13#post-862375
I looked at the error.log. I’m assuming it notes military time. There were some files not found this morning as I’d expect. Nothing from this afternoon.
Thanks for the speedy reply. I appreciate it.
What does your directory structure look like? Where did you put bbPress, and where is WordPress? Does it look like this:
/var/www/htdocs/wordpress/wp-config.php
/var/www/htdocs/wordpress/bbpress/bb-config.php
Did you modify the wp-config.php file at all? Do you have access to error logs? A blank screen is likely a 500 Internal Server Error.
If you can’t see the sites, you have bigger problems than just integrated logins. You should be able to view the WordPress site and the bbPress forum without logging in.
I was just about finished integrating bbpress with our wordpress installation. I had not called up the wordpress site during most of this process. When I did try to call it up, a white screen came up, no error messages, nothing, just white.
It had just been working fine before I began installing bbpress, but I had just gotten locked out of login (again) and followed these instructions: “To fix bbpress, you need phpmyadmin or a similar tool. Login, go to your bbpress database. Not certain what it’s like on 0.9, but you probably need to go to the bb_topicmeta table and perform a search (or browse through) to find a record where the meta_key is wp_table_prefix. Try deleting that record. Without that setting I think bb would look for its own users again. ” http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/doing-integration-cant-login-in-bbpress
Not sure if that’s what broke the wordpress installation. What should I try? Should I go back into phpMyAdmin and try to add that record back in? Should I just uninstall bbpress and start over again?
Yes, it’s pretty friendly, especially with Permalinks on. Are there specific concerns you’re trying to address?
There are also a couple SEO plugins for bbPress floating around if you’d like to make it even better.

@sambauers – but we’re used to WordPress where they’re pretty easy to change in the admin. 
The 1.0 will be support WordPress theme integration ?
I tried to integrate it with my existing wordpress, yes.
Is this a standalone bbPress or integrated with WordPress?
1.0 will include XML-RPC for all bbPress content.
It would be quite easy to create a plugin for WordPress which fetches content via XML-RPC and turns it into an array.

It has to do with people using different character encoding for their database tables other than UTF-8. I’m probably overstating the threat as the same problem exists on all data input and we filter it out the problem there. I was also just reviewing WordPress injection attacks of days gone by, so it was on my mind.
In any case, the solution in the future is to change your display name after registration. Display names are UTF-8 friendly.
Those two versions are not compatible for integration. I still don’t know what your problem is, but maybe that’s part of it.

Ah, now I remember when they changed/fixed that in WordPress. Because my logs became full of the cron entries with WordPress pinging back to itself through the server. I think it polls like every few minutes too which was annoying. Hopefully that’s changed too or it will have to be deleted asap (along with xmlrpc).
1.0 is going to be so much more bloated over 0.9
Snoopy/http class alone is 40k.
I went to your forum but I can’t read Russian to know what exactly is going wrong. I’ve never seen the problem.
What version bbPress did you install, and is it integrated with WordPress (and if so, what version there)?
Use the existing database, but be sure the table prefixes are different. By default WordPress uses wp_ and bbPress uses bb_ – those are safe. When you get into the installation, you will see a place where it asks what the WordPress table prefix is.
The blog says, “To enable cron I’ve included the very new WP_Http class in BackPress.” This class is documented here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Version_2.7#HTTP_API which I read as providing exactly what you suggested – URL fetching to do a pseudo multi-task.
I want to integrate bbPress with WordPress. In the installation of bbPress, should I use my existing WordPress database or should I create a new one?
Just remember that the cron in bbPress/WordPress is fake and not parallel tasking. Meaning that the user waits while the task is completed when the task is triggered. Unless they are using url fetching via php to do a pseudo multi-task, which I doubt.
Sometimes (most times) a real cron is better. I asked them way-back-when cron was first introduced in WordPress to allow a real cron job to be substituted but still work with the API and I don’t believe they’ve ever done that.
I’m busy with a working plugin but doesn’t get the page titel modified:

check the forum link in my profile page to get an idea for the unfinished version
This is the only SEO related plugin I know of for bbPress. Not sure if it works with the latest release, but it could be a start.
