Hi Geekaholic,

you moved the phpbb user to the bbPress user table (e.g. bb_users). The users are still there. After the user integration you must copy the users from bbPress user table to the WordPress user table – and also copy the user_meta information.

If you had some WordPress users before the transfer form phpbb to bbPress/WordPress – it is possible to merge the users by hand. I do this within the phpMyAdmin.

Hi,

I’m using phpbb3 right now but want to move to bbpress. So I installed bbpress on my server and was able to import all the posts and users from the phpbb3 to the new bbpress forum. Everything worked great. But now I would like to integreate the wordpress user database with the bbpress database. When I’m using this build in integration method, all the users I transfered from phpbb3 to bbpress disapear…

does anyone know how to fix that or is the bbpress user databye deleted by integreating it to wordpress?

Hi Sandar,

If you’re using StationPro, a premium theme, then I’d suggest asking in their forum’s first. BaseStation, the company behind StationPro, claim that all their themese are bbPress compatible, and indeed sell bbPress themes which should work with the WordPress theme.

BaseStation also, out of the kindess of their hearts, will sell you a bbPress component to make it all work (side effects include: it still may not work as you’d hoped and loss of $50).

Either way though, bbPress is not a WordPress theme nor a Plugin, and should not be placed in the WordPress theme nor plugin directory. Hopefully it’ll all work for you after that.

Take Care,

Kev

@Xevo Hi, Thanks.

Here is that info:

wordpress: 2.9.2

bbPress: 1.0.2

bbPress Plugin for WP: 1.0

Here are the keys that are the same in wp/bp:

BB_AUTH_KEY = AUTH_KEY

BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY = SECURE_AUTH_KEY

BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY = LOGGED_IN_KEY

BB_NONCE_KEY = NONCE_KEY

In PB’s settings I also have:

* WP’s auth_salt

* WP’s logged_in_salt

Both set to the WP values.

Hi, in my server I have wordpress installed with the permalink active and works fine,

I tried to do the same thing with bbpress but after the server returns a permission error…

maybe due that bbpress is installed on the same website that wordpress and wordpress consider /forum as a page and this crashes?

thanks in advance

[michaelmongeau]

@ashfame: Thanks for the fix. That did the trick.

[foxchx]

no i mean adding multiple forum “main theme”

sp far all i have as the ability to ad topics…. which is very weird as that’s exactly what wordpress is create topic (post) and discuss them…

i am just trying to figure out what’s the use of such setup… if i can’t add forum, it’s kinda usless to have just a bunch of topics that can’t be sorted…

check out the pick (how do you post a picure in bbpress??)

Yep, I have it integrated with wordpress. I’ll give those fixes a shot.

Is there anyway I could add them without hacking core? Maybe as a plugin? This post (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slashes-being-added-in-front-of-apostrophes#post-12563) suggests adding this:

if (function_exists('wp_head')) {

// or another check to see if WordPress has been included

add_filter('get_topic_title', 'stripslashes');

add_filter('get_post_text', 'stripslashes');

}

to the “WordPress Integration” plugin. Since that plugin is in wordpress, not bbpress it didn’t seem like it would work, but I tried anyway and nothing. One person said it worked. Where might they have been adding it?

Then there is hacking core files, which I’d rather not do since it makes updating more difficult.

[kikko088]

ok but I want that the user put also other information…

I don’t like the wordpress profile manager, i prefer the profile manger of bbpress than i want that all user access only to bbpress profile manager.

[kikko088]

my bbpress and wordpress ara just integrating, if i’m login with wp i’m login also with bbpress, but while the registration with bbpress the user must insert name, email, site with wordpress the user must insert only a nickname and email…I want to menage the registration only with bbpress….I try to put the html code for login but there is a little problem, until the user isn’t logged in the sidebar there is the login form, but when the user login in the sidebar remains the login form instead “Welcome, user, ecc…..”

There is another way for put login form in the sidebar?

thank you

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

You should consider integrating both WordPress and bbPress to have login synchronization (loggin into one will make you login for the other too and the same goes with logout)

[gerikg]

You should have 8 keys total. Replace whatever you have with the keys from the “https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt”

[kikko088]

can I put bbpress login function on the sidebar of wp?so the user can be login on bbpress profile from a wordpress page…

kikko088?

just going through this.

“Go to your wp-config.php file and highlight line 45 (it starts with define(‘AUTH_KEY’)) to line 48 (starts with define(‘NONCE_KEY’)) and PASTE the new keys. You basically change your 4 keys to 8 keys.”

my wp-config file in the wordpress directory already has 8 keys here, so following your instructions means there is now 12, with some of them appearing twice. that can’t be right? i’ve just pasted the 8 keys from the wordpres site over the 8 keys listed in wp-config file.

went through everything to the T… i run the forum and get this:

Warning: Division by zero in /home/mysite/public_html/members/forum/bb-config.php on line 77

Warning: Division by zero in /home/mysite/public_html/members/forum/bb-config.php on line 77

Any ideas?

[rich777]

hey gerikg,

im going to go through you’re tutorial first thing monday morning

thanks for the resource

[gerikg]

I am trying your plugin but the tutorial is worded for people who know what they are doing. Can you simplify it for us simpletons?

[gerikg]

try my tutorial: http://wpbbpthemes.org/integration/ it doesn’t have images sorry. Maybe you missed something?

[rich777]

Hey!

What version of WordPress are you using?

Version 2.9.2

What version of bbPress are you using?

1.0.2

Did you upgrade from an older version of WP?

Fresh WordPress install.

Did you upgrade from an older version of BBP?

Fresh BBPress install.

Which steps or tutorial did you take?

All of them it seems.

Do you use shared hosting service?

Yup.

Does your server use php5 and is it active?

I think so ( http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/231/cpanelx1272729322319.png )

Are you using BuddyPress?

Nope.

I’ve tried twice now – I really like the look of bbpress as well. Would anyone be willing to install it if I throw five quid someones way?

[Terranb]

I’m kind of embarrassed so I would be inclined to delete the above post, but in the interest of informing the community I’ll leave it intact.

After updating my wordpress install it’s now working. So it would seem that bbpress plays nicely with the most current WP 3 iteration

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

@Terranb

Try this tutorial of mine – http://wpwebhost.com/make-bbpress-theme-match-with-wordpress-by-deep-integration/

[Terranb]

I’m having a similar problem when I try calling require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-load.php'); so I can bring my theme into bbpress.

This is a WP 3.0 multiuser site on subdomains. The funny thing is I’ve had this working on test sites using WP 3 single user and WP 3 multiuser on subdirectories.

Is there something about it being on subdomains that might cause this? Might differences in the WP .htaccess file cause it?
