It is not on the development road map. bbPress is on its way to becoming a plugin for WordPress and will therefore rely on whatever database technology is used by WordPress.

Hello,

I’m looking to tack bbPress onto one of my non-WordPress sites. The site was hand coded in php and is a very basic static site. I’d like to use the bbPress login throughout the entire site to enable commenting and a few other social features.

Are there any resources out there that have to do with integration on a non-WordPress site? I’m just looking for a place to start.

Thanks!

I fixed it. I proceeded to do more digging following the link from chrishajer then following more links, followed by a google search. THis is what I eneded up doing.

I tired so many things idk if it was just one of the things or the combination of both of these that fixed it.

But first I went to https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/ and got new keys for wordpress, I replaced all the old code in wp-config with the ones this script generated. Next I went to bb-config and copied these keys there, overwriting what was previously specified. I then added “BB_” to the begining of the name of what I was defining.

Next I added

define( ‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

to both wp-config and bb-config.

try bbpress integration plugin on WordPress side. It will tell you to add some lines in your wp-config.php, do so and see if that resolves it.

Thanks, Guatam. >.<

Its not perfect in any way but, man, am I proud of it!

I also cannot use moderation functions like sticky a topic, or close a topic if I logged in via WordPress even though I see the links to do those actions. Everything though works fine if I logout and login using bbPress’ login.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

May be its a simple problem that I have encountered some times. Try Ctrl + F5

is there a website that only has themes with wordpress AND bbpress versions?

[Gautam Gupta]

Nice one! The theme port is also great.

There is a possiblity they are redirecting to WP for login even via bbpress and because there is no ?re (or whatever wordpress uses these days) it plops them right into the admin menu, which is typical WP insanity.

[Rich Pedley]

this is the support forums for bbPress not WordPress, and not GoDaddy.

I’d suggest speaking to GoDaddy support first, then if you get not joy asking again on the WordPress.org forums.

[Vasbinder]

I’m going to be honest: I tried other forum technologies before this one. Every website I saw with bbPress looked so drastically simple that it turned me away for the longest time. I tried many different popular forums but none of them worked, nor integrated, the way I wanted them to.

I decided to give bbPress a whirl. When I first set it up, I almost gave up because none of the features I truly wanted were there, or at least not in place. That’s when I decided to look up the coding itself. Talk about flexibility!

Anywho, after days of work and editing, I think I finally have a functional gaming-related forum to go along with my newly-created gaming-related website. I’m fairly proud of what I’ve accomplished thus far, but I wanted to hear from you guys, the forum that I have visited more than any others the past week. Take a look after the jump below!

Oh, and sign-up on the main website if you like games! More forum features are well on their way!

Hi,

I have a new wordpress installation. Here is an example of what I would like to do:

Include an external PHP navigation file. WordPress is located at http://example.com/wordpress. The external PHP navigation file is located at http://example.com/navigation.php.

PHP includes such as <?php include(“LINK”); ?> do not work.

ANY HELP is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Additional Details

I appreciate the help, but none of those work.

Also I would like to add that I have a different wordpress installation that has exactly what I need working.

But for some reason, in this installation I cannot do it. Same versions.

2 weeks ago

I have copied all of my coding into a new wordpress theme.

Now they work.

They do not work in my modified theme for some reason -_-

Ok so here’s what I’ve noticed in the past hour or two.

If I logged in via bbpress the admin link works, if I logged in via wordpress it does not.

Now I can just logout and login via bbpress to access the admin which is an ok workaround but I want to know why its not working when I login via wordpress.

[Anonymous User 6443559]

I just installed WordPress 3.0.1 in the root for an addon domain for my hosting. I installed bb-press 1.0 in a sub directory called forum. I intergrated with wordpress durring the install, that seems to have worked, bbpress shows me as logged in, but when I click on the admin link it just reloads the bbpress mainpage. When I try to go directly to the bb-admin by typing the path in it does the same.

Any ideas what would be causing this and how to fix?

Hey guys,

Anyone know why WP hooks, such as wp_head(), won’t work in a deeply integrated bbPress install?

Andrew // PageLines

[chrishajer]

Is this for a Pagelines integration?

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/deep-integration-wordpress-bbpress-bb-configphp-errors

You need to paste that line into bb-config.php, almost anywhere. What were the errors when you tried it?

Hi,

I’m trying to instal bbpress and so far I managed to instal but I fail to integrate with WordPress

So I have WP in http://www.sitename.com/wpfolder, then inside wpfolder i added new one so my BBPress is instaled in http://www.sitename.com/wpfolder/bbfolder

And now I don’t know how to integrade

I’m getting this msg

Deep Integration With WordPress Required

It appears your WordPress installation isn't deeply integrated which is required for iBlogPro Forum to work correctly (it needs access to WP functions).



Please see Deep Integration With WordPress

so everytime when I call BBPress http://www.sitename.com/wpfolder/bbfolder I can’t see dashboard only this msg.

So I know that I need to add

Functions (optional)

bbPress will not have access to WordPress’ functions unless you manually tell bbPress to load WordPress first. This integration step is also known as “deep” integration, it is a totally optional part of integration and is not required to get shared cookies and logins working. In order to do it, you need to put require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/path/to/wp-load.php'); in bbPress’ bb-config.php (wp-load.php is in the same directory as WordPress’ wp-config.php file, so if your bbPress folder is directly inside your WordPress folder, the command becomes require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-load.php').

but I don’t know where to add, I tried in bb-config.php but I get some errors, to be hones and don’t know where to past code

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-load.php');

so can somebody help me, or link me to some resources with answers?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried logging out of WordPress then tried logging in to bbPress and then accessing the admin section?

Hi I want to make a Image Bulleting board sort of. But more importantly is there a way for the user to upload a Thumbnail for a topic(to be shown on the frontpage besides the topic title). (not nessesarily listed as an attachment inside the post, but as a thumbnail for the post shown on the frontpage) like a wordpress blog post almost?

So beside each topic, would be a 30×30 thumbnail of the topic.

Anyone know where i can start with this, or if there is a plugin already ?

Thanks in Advanced.

I did a lot of installs tonight and best i could come out is that i could create the forums but i have no acces at all at the admin section… Because the email is not sent.

Yes main_ is my WordPress db table prefix.

And i created a new DB as well to try sorting out diferent… But it’s still not working out. BUT i do have the same user table at least… So if i could only get administrator on the same account from WP would be gr8…

[chrishajer]

If you want to reinstall, you will need to drop all the bb_ tables from the database. You will get this “upgrade” notice when there are bb_ tables in the database.

It almost looks like you used main_ for your bbPress database table prefix? I hope that is not the table prefix for your WordPress installation. If it is, then using the same prefix for bbPress means the bbPress installer tried to install into your WordPress tables.
