1.) I thought one of the advantages of this forum was that it would automatically take on the theme of my WordPress site. It is not. How can I make that happen?
2.) Can I remove all references to this being by bbPress, OR is that against the license?
Thanks!
I found significant problems with the bbPress documentation on integrating bbPress into a WordPress site, which had me puzzling for well over an hour (http://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/). Here is what I did in the end:
1) Not at all clear from the documentation that bbPress should be installed in the same database as WordPress. Get WP database parameters from the WordPress wp-config.php, and enter these on the first page of the bbPress install page:
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘warriord_wrdp7’);
/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘warriord_wrdp7’);
/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘xxxxxx’);
2) Fantastico and other automated scripts generate very long AUTH_KEY etc, that typically contain “escaped characters” within a PHP “define” statement (ie. ’ and \). Copying these from the wp-config.php into page 2 of the bbPress installer is problematic. Rather than trying to figure this out, I just copied them from wp-config.php (in WordPress) to bb-config.php (in bbPress).
Other than this, it was pretty straightforward and now works like a charm. To see it working http://internet101.biz/wordpress-how-to/

Topic: Where do I upload bbpress?
I realize this is a really dumb question but I have the .zip file from this site so what do I do with it now to integrate it with wordpress?
My name is Dennis Morhardt, the man behind the german communities of BuddyPress and WordPress MU. (For you Matt, the guy from the WordCamp in Germany). I think bbPress 2.0 sould the release with the best WordPress integration, maybe as plugin or a combination of plugin and stand-a-lone version with the possibile to use normal wordpress themes. But my focus is internationalization and localization and I would like to help
No need for speculation, hearsay and playing the blame game.
Posts like this do not help matters.
If you can’t wait for the WP/WPMU merge for BuddyPress, use Mingle, a social networking plugin by Blair Williams that works on regular WordPress. It’s already quite stable for such a young plugin.
Good news is you can still use your existing bbPress as well
Hi all
I have been looking for the solution, but only found small hints here and there with no real complete guide on how to do it, so i have made a small one that should explain it in a simple way.
(THIS IS BASED ON WP 2.8.6 AND BBPRESS 1.0.2 WITH WP INTEGRATION VIA BBPRESS ADMIN.) If you have older versions installed, i recommend to read this exelent post by ck:
http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101step one: Add this string to your bb-config file in your bbpress folder:
require_once(‘/home/ your username/public_html/your wordpress folder/wp-blog-header.php’);
NOTE: The path might be different from host to host, but this is what my path looks like……you get the idea ;O)
step two:
Go to your WP template folder, and open up the file: header.php from your chosen template.
Copy over the content you want after the <BODY> tag, and copy it into your BBpress header.php template file after the <BODY> tag.
What i did here was to take a backup of the original BBpress header.php file, so i could paste in the things i needed from this file to the new one i just
created with the WP header content.
step 3 your css files
My approach to this was of course to take backup of both WP css and BB css files first. I used the BBpress css file as my main css file. I then took the css strings from the WP css file i needed, and simply copied them into my BBpress css file. In my case i needed the header and navigation strings.
NOTE: You might also need to copy the WP css body string, if your BB css Body string has different font measures. Some use EM´s and some use %. This will affect how your fonts react.
And that´s it folks. I hope you understand this, and if other people has something to add to this plz. do so we all can learn.

I’m happy to hear it that way. After looking at bbShowcase, I just thought that it was done. I’d be so happy to see 1.2 come out. In fact, I can’t wait to see 2.0 – I’m sure it’ll have a stack of new features.
But you’re right, and like I said as well, there’d be no good reason to end it.
I know this is off-topic, but I’d just like to ask something. BuddyPress seems to be such a brilliant piece of software. Can it only be integrated with WordPress MU? Can it not run standalone? The whole idea for my site is to have a simple community-driven system for all areas of development. The forum seems to be doing the trick, and as good as it is, BuddyPress would cater for the concept so much better than bbPress does.
Thanks for the optimism – I wasn’t worrying, however.
It has been a while, since the alpha/RC-1 times, that we had a list of working plugins, so I thought to create a list of working plugins with the current version 1.0.2, that we can all add to, in order to help other users. Many plugins are listed as up to v. 9.0, but they do work with the latest release (that should be updated, so it doesn’t look like 1.0.2 has very little options…).
Here is my list at the moment, planning on testing more.
