Kinda. I’m having issues with User Role Maps not working. But other than that yes. It works fine.
If you have AIM, leave it and I’ll try to help in anyway I can.
I had the same problem. I found a couple of other posts via Google that lead me to the answer. You need to exclude bbPress from being processed by WP Super Cache. This can be done through a configuration setting within WP Super Cache.
> WordPress Dashboard
> Settings
> WP Super Cache
> Advanced tab
> Scroll down to “Accepted Filenames & Rejected URI’s”
> Add here strings (not a filename) …
I found the following entries in that text box:
wp-.*.php
index.php
I added:
/forums/
(My bbPress application is installed under my WordPress directory in the /forums sub-directory).
Now all URL’s that include the string “/forums/” are ignored in terms of caching.

Hello everyone!
I have released the RC 1 of WordPress to bbPress Converter Script. What it does is migrates all your users, converts categories to forums, articles to topics and comments to posts. Currently, it just doesn’t change image shortcodes to image urls and doesn’t preserve the forum hierarchy.
To use it, download it, put it on your server, edit the script and change the options to appropriate values before the Stop Editing Here part.
I am soon planning to release a bbPress standalone to plugin converter script if someone doesn’t beat me to it.

Thanks!

I’ve tried all that already actually (copying the data between the two config files and setting up “bbPress integration” plugin).
Thanks for the suggestions though.
Does this mean you’ve managed to get it working successfully with WordPress 3.1.1?

So I have a fresh install of WordPress and bbPress(latest stable versions)
Integration is perfect! Admin can login and out on both sides with the same login. Can post, etc etc.
I created another user to test the role map. I changed the Subscriber/Inactive role in WP to Contributor/Member. Still it did not change in bbPress.
…I had hoped zaerl was right about it being BuddyPress. It apparently is not BuddyPress causing the problem. Can anyone help?

So I started from scratch, and it seems they were never working. I don’t understand how Buddypress can defunk the role mapping? I don’t even really know if thats what the issue is. I’m going to start over again and do it without buddypress.
I only wanted Buddypress for the rich profiles and activity stream.

I had that issue, and I had to manually paste the data between the config.php files. >.> Also, integrating the two well after actually installation was something I had to do aswell.
And there is a plugin you should look for in WP, it’s called “bbPress integration” and it tells you whats needed in your config file to share cookies.

Hi,
I’m trying to integrate bbPress 1.03 into WordPress 3.1.1. I’ve followed all the instructions but I can’t seem to get the cookie integration to work. Before I hack away at it I thought it would be worth asking whether this is a known issue?
Thanks.
Where have you put the script? Put it in the root and also check if /forums2/bb-load.php exists.
Hi Gautam, I have the converter installed, but have a quick question for you.
My wordpress is in the root directory, my bbpress forums are in
http://www.sitename.com/forums2
Here is the part of your code:
define( ‘W2BC_WP_PATH’, ” ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */
define( ‘W2BC_BB_PATH’, ‘/forums2/’ ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */
define( ‘W2BC_CONVERT_PINGBACKS’, true ); /** Convert pingacks too? true or false */
*** Continue my question ***
I keep getting “bbPress loader file (bb-load.php) doesn’t exist in the path specified!”
I have tried defining the w2bc_bb_path to ./forums2/ I have left it as the default like you had it and I have tried it as it is in the example above … it still tells me the path doesn’t exist
Could you let me know what path I need to define, if my forums are located at
http://www.sitename.com (this is where wordpress is installed)
http://www.sitename.com/forums2 (this is where my bbpress is installed)
Thank you again for the help and for the file. I am hoping I can get it to work:-)
I would like to pull profile data for users and place it on their post under their avatar. How can I do this?
How could I do it if the data is stored in WordPress?
Awesome, thank you very much Gautam for your help!

You may check my WordPress to bbPress converter – http://code.google.com/p/wordpress-to-bbpress-converter/
It doesn’t migrate users yet, so you would have to do that yourself (before using the script).
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew a way to take wordpress comments and convert them into BBpress. Or alternatively maybe WordPress Comments into PHPBB, then use a converter to go from PHPBB to BBPress?
If anyone has done this before or if you know how best to approach this I’d sure appreciate some guidance. Thank you.
>.> I’m using bbPress standalone, but integrated with WordPress. I am using matching themes. Everything was working, as I said, until I installed User Role Editor by Vladimir Garagulya. But not the Role Maping is broken.
I don’t know how to fix it.
