There is not a way to do that, I don’t think. Typically, people will create a bbPress plugin that does the same thing as the WordPress plugin.
What feature are you looking for?
kevinjohngallagher – Thank you very much for your help. I understand you caution completely, however given the nature of my community I am sure that this will be appreciated.
Can you confirm that the following will only select users who are bbpress members and above, and not all users in my WordPress users table.
$bbdb->users WHERE user_status=0"
Hi there,
After a couple of hours googeling my question stays not resolved, here is my question:
Is there a way to integrate a wordpress plugin into my BBPress forum? My forum uses the same DB as my WordPress.
Thanks in advance.
I need to implement the Auto Login to BBPress. I have the steps of Auto Login to WordPress and here are the steps:
require_once (‘blog/wp-blog-header.php’);
$user_login = ‘screen_name’;
$user = get_userdatabylogin($user_login);
$user_id = $user->ID;
wp_set_current_user($user_id, $user_login);
wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id);
do_action(‘wp_login’, $user_login);
Could you please help me to change this code for BBPress Login?
Thank You.

I am running a small forum for a small private team.
As it is for a small team, posts are made infrequently.
In order to let people know when there is a new topic raised I would like to email ALL the forum users a notification of the new topic.
It should be noted that I am integrating bbPress with WordPress. Not all my WordPress user have access to my forum. The solution needs to ONLY notify those users who have bbPress member or higher access.
Is there an existing solution for this, or could anyone advise me on how to create one?
When the “bbPress plugin for wordpress” arrives, I will have the choice to keep using bbpress as standalone product or I will be forced to migrate to wordpress + bbpress??
@Kadr, neem even contact met me op via de contactpagina van mijn website.
@chandersbs, because we understand each other better…
Why do you guys keep writing Dutch, if you both speek English?
Hey, Ik begrijp dat je bbPress zelf een ander uiterlijk kan geven, maar bij jou lijkt het forum echt onderdeel van de site te zijn, ipv een aparte site.
Dus nog afgezien van het uiterlijk, hoe zorg je dat bbPress onderdeel van de hoofdsite wordt?
(translate: It is not so much the look, as the functionality: how do I make bbpress appear as part of my wordpress site i.o. a different site)
Bedankt, ik heb hiervoor het “blank 2 column Right Sidebar 1.0” theme gebruikt en deze omgebouwd naar de look and feel van mijn eigen website. Heeft me heel wat tijd gekost. Als je ruime kennis hebt van html en css moet dit mogelijk zijn voor je met deze theme.
(Transelate: Thanks, i used the “blank 2 column Right Sidebar 1.0” and build this to the look and feel of my website. It cost me lots of time. If you got the knwoledge of html and css i suggest to use this theme.
Mag ik vragen hoe je dat ongeveer gedaan hebt? Ziet er namleijk slick uit!
(translates as: May I ask how you did that? Look pretty slick!)
You need to create a look-a-like theme, see: http://www.jahw.nl/forums
Hey,
I just installed WordPress and bbPress.
Both look great!
Now I would like to have bbPress appear on a page in my wordpress-site instead as a seperate site.
Is that possible?
I’ve noticed that when I enter in bbpress with admin user wordpress log out the same admin user.
I hope this can help.
I don’t know exactly where I was wrong but my admin seems not work.
I think I’ve made an error to configure the possibility to have the same user for wordpress and bbpress.
So probably the admin for bbpress is the same of wordpress but have not the priviledges.
Please help me to solve the problem

@ gofastbargains, thanks, I was actually thinking I could call the wp theme header somehow from bbpress, but I guess I can try to replicate the existing wp theme’s css into the bbpress header too, I found some nice blank templates I’m gonna try using.
@chrishajer, thank you, yes probably that was the bbshowcase I’m referring too. I hope there’s a future for bbpress either as a wp plugin or standalone. And regarding the my-templates and my-plugins folders, I don’t mind having them, but I didn’t use them either, I place the themes into bb-templates and it works fine, haven’t tried any plugins yet.
What do you mean by “WordPress discussion settings”… are you asking about a bbPress install or a WordPress one?
@ gerikg – so, I’m using PHP4.x on my server and you are saying that I need PHP 5.x to stay logged in going from WP to BB or vice versa?
PHP 5.x is a requirement for integration?
@lionbeat, there were never any themes neatly presented here as far as I know. There is a plugin repository here but the themes were always scattered all over the place. For a while, _ck_ maintained the bbshowcase.org and there was a theme directory there. Nothing official though, and now even that is gone.
@petroski. Those my-templates and my-plugins folders are needed, it’s where you put your templates and your plugins (not the ones included with bbPress.) As I mentioned, they are being created with incorrect permissions and that issue has been resolved in ticket #1139.
They didn’t used to get created on installation, you had to create them yourself. Then they were being created but with the wrong permissions (0750 by default.) Now, after ticket #1139 is resolved the directories will be created with 0755 permissions. You need them if you want to install any plugins or use your own template.
Someone brought up it that their host was using php4 and it should be php5. It caused you to log out when switching from WP->BB or BB->WP.
do you have the right chmod on the files and folders?
> chris – perhaps because it also has the folders bb-plugins and bb-templates (uploaded via FTP) and that’s where the stock plug-ins and templates were? Also, if they are my folders, why would they be set with permissions that preclude me doing anything with them via FTP?
we actually did it manually, cutting and paste from wp-header to bb-header, it was rather intensive work, and you have to know css, it was a good thing my bro is a css pro. simply copy and paste did not make it work, he had to realign and figure out the original wp theme and past in the correct line in the bb theme. if you look at… http://gofastbargains.com/ and open another tab and open http://gofastbargains.com/Forum/ . you’ll see they do not match up perfectly. We’ll fix it eventually, but it was about 6 hours of work, installing, integrating, and theme matching.
