Another update…

When trying to login to bbPress, it logs me into WordPress, but not bbPress. So, the bbPress login and out features are setting correctly the WordPress session info, but not the bbPress session info.

[codeoncrack]

Actually, I found I can’t login either. There was a cache problem with login. I will search more posts for ideas. If anyone has thoughts, please share.

After integrating WordPress and bbPress, a single login works correctly, but logout does not work. When I click the logout link from bbPress or WordPress, it does not log me out of bbPress but does log me out of WordPress. Does anyone know why the bbPress logout would not be working?

Sorry, saw it already. xD

Hey guys! I am currently working on a plug-in that will let you use smilies, just like wordpress. Also activated the same way. I am looking through my WordPress.org files, and I found them, the smilies’ images, but not the code. I am new at this so I am gonna need some programming help. Hope it works soon!

Well, I for one think kineda.com is a totally awesome work of art!

If the lookbook is actually bbPress then I’m just plain speechless. I can’t even begin to imagine what “lots of hardwork and many late nights” actually means. Something extreme, I’m sure.

I think you have something to be totally proud of here. And having said that, it sounds absolutely understated.

I am just embarking on a journey to rebuild Girls Rock Radio – http://www.girlsrockradio.com into a WordPress/bbPress site. Currently it is neither – it is hand coded html/php and a SimpleMachines Forum.

On this journey, I only wish I could pick your brain along the way. If I can create something only half as beautiful as kineda.com, I’ll be very happy!

It’s funny. I have a bbPress forum at 1&1, in a subdirectory of WordPress installation, and I never did get permalinks working (I last tried 18 months or so ago.) Now that you have shown it can be done, I will take my own advice, which was provided here first by hmcnally, and see if I can get them working again.

Glad it worked for you.

Does this help:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/dropping-multiviews-support#post-16050

Your setup is just fine with the directory structure you have setup (WordPress as the root for the domain, bbPress in a subfolder.)

[cliffmaster]

Anyone else have this problem with 1and1 ?

I cannot get pretty permalinks to run, even after following directions.

I wrote to them

I am running wordpress and bbpress in the same root directory

http://mysite.com is wordpress install and

http://mysite.com/bbpress/ is bbpress install each install has

it’s own .htaccess for using permalinks. WordPress permalinks work fine

but I cannot get bbpress pretty permalinks to work at all. I have tried

different variations of htaccess codes for both files without any

success. It seems to me that the main root htaccess is overriding the

/bbpress/ htaccess.

Any suggestions ?

This was their reply to me.

“Dear Cliffmaster, (Customer ID: 6XXXXXXXX)

Thank you for contacting us.

With regards to your query,

we would highly suggest that you install BBpress on a different folder

and not on folder where you have installed a different CMS (WordPress).

Please separate the two CMS’s by installing them on different folders

under the root directory (/.)

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hi Detective,

I have tried sending you a message using your website but I think I might have submitted a comment instead of an email in error

I really like your website/forum (http://www.ryuuko.cl/bbpress/). It’s definitely one of the best bbpress/wordpress integrations I’ve seen, looks very professional – great job

Would you be able to give us some more information on how you used the wordpress User Photo plug-in inside bbpress? I’ve tried for a while to work out how to do it with no success. If you could help it would be very much appreciated, or if anyone knows how to do this?

I’ve done a few Google searches but there isn’t any information on how to integrate the User Photo plug-in into bbpress.

Thanks,

Will

This is an old post about converting from PHPBB2:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/importing-from-phpbb

The Google Summer of Code project for bbPress is going to focus on importers for bbPress, so if you are not using PHPBB2, you might want to wait until the GSOC project is over. There will probably be an announcement if they complete the tools.

https://codex.wordpress.org/GSoC2008#Web_Forums_Export.2FImport_Standard_and_Tools

[chrishajer]

I think you need to include WordPress in your bbPress so you have access to WordPress functions like get_header:

https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/#func

Then, in your template, you need to do something like this:

<?php get_header(); ?>

That will include the WordPress header. If you do the second part without the first, it will fail because get_header is a WordPress function.

I think…

i just solved my login cookie issue after one night debugging…

i found these things:

– by default, wpmu generate auth_cookie as “wordpress”, but bbpress generate as “wordpress_xxxxx(hash)”

– wpmu not using “database secret” for cookie hashing, but it use the SECRET_SALT constant defined in the wp-config.php, bbpress using “database secret”. so the cookie result will never be the same.

you need to update your bb-config.php file to meet these situations.

assumed you’ve successfully install wpmu + bbpress, then edit your bb-config.php and add these line:

define(‘BB_SECRET_KEY’, ‘yourreallysecretkey’);

define(‘BB_SECRET_SALT’, ‘yourreallysecretsalt’);

$bb->authcookie = ‘wordpress’;

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘.yourdomain.com’;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

$bb->sitecookiepath = ”;

and try to login… voila.. you can switch to bbpress and wpmu without re-login…

good luck,

I’m still trying to get my bbpress installation to match http://www.atriskstoriesofhope.com/wordpress. What steps/php commands do I need to import my wordpress header/footer into my bbpress template/installation?

[kineda]

Thought this may help those that are still having trouble integrating the two:

thanks chris for the help, that did the job. since the rss feed was displaying fine in FF, I didn’t thought about validating it.

[manomalt]

Man…i’ve been trying to get bbpress in integrate (sso) for about 4 days now. I’ve tried just about everything these forums have recommended. I first installed WordPress (upgraded to 2.5.1), and then installed the newest version of bbpress in a subdirectory, like http://www.mysite.com/forum. I then went to my “wordpress integration” section of my bbpress installation, set it up as directed…and now I can’t login to the admin section of my bbpress site. I looked into seryi’s suggested changed above, but my code seems to be correct in my pluggable.php file. I tried the “fix admin” plugin from here: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/. I also tried this process (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpbb-integration-admin-problem#post-2539) of changed the phpmyadmin, but I’m confused on what to add where. Is there anything else I can try in order to get this integration working?

[chrishajer]

bbPress is not a plugin for WordPress. Just upload the bbpress folder to a subdirectory of your WordPress installation, then access the installer.

http://www.example.com/ <— if this is WordPress

http://www.example.com/bbpress/ <— put the forum here

Then access that URL and start the installation.

[pikaro24]

guys can you help me I’m trying to install a Bb press in word press as i posted new here means I’m just got in this wordpress can you help me the proper way of installing Bb Press i know how to upload by an FTP ,and i tried installing it in the livesite in this directory as i have search other forum or tutorials bout Bb Press i put it in this directory /wp-content/plugins/ in the plug in is this right please help me guys help is really appreciated

[chrishajer]

Did you try validating the feed

http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.criticalmass.at%2Fforum%2Frss%2F

The feed URL returns a 404 Not found Error if you check the headers:

http://www.criticalmass.at/forum/rss/

This sounds like WordPress trying to handle the /forum/ URL and sending a 404 error when the page actually exists. There was a plugin to take care of this sort of thing, I think…

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-wordpress-mu-or-not-leads-to-404-errors-but-pages-still-load#post-13156

I think that plugin will resolve the fact that the feed actually returns a 404 error, then I bet the widget will pull the feed just fine. Report back please…

[pulk99]

ok, the problem is suddenly back. the rss feed isn’t updating in the widget anymore.

[Mufasa]

We’re going to look at it again later this week. We’re busy building a debain box for a new WordPress MU site that we are about to launch.

I’m telling you though – if somebody made a [shortcode] and some WP widgets this would be so freaking awesome…. I think my head would just explode

[Detective]

I edited the header of my forum, trying to match the design of the WordPress theme, and then loaded the same CSS file from it. It’s the best way i think.

[antoniop]

Hey everyone. I’ve been trying to figure out how to match my bbpress theme with my wordpress theme. So far I know I need to somehow integrate my current wordpress header/footer into my bbpress installation. I’m thinking that this might be the only thing that I need to do. Are there any specifics on how to do this?

Mufasa, I’m in the same boat. I’m trying to integrate my bbpress into http://www.atriskstoriesofhope.com/wordpress. Please let me know if you find out how to do this.
