@ipstenu: I know iframes are dangerous but it was the simplest way of getting the job done.
@everyone: thanks for your support!
I’m offering $10 to whoever can get this done for me.
Just send me an email

I did essentially add in the bbpress custom css to my wp theme’s css, too, so that they would really mesh up better, as well.

Did you mesh bbPress and WordPress?
Hi there – has anyone tried to use the registerd users only plugin with wordpress and bbpress running together? I found that it works great for wordpress but skunks all access to bbpress. Anyone get around this?
Thanks!
I wish the WP-Forum worked on WordPress 2.8 then I would be a happy camper
Simple Press Sucks
BBPress is too young at this point for it to be a permanent solution
Vanilla is too unstable to be a permanent solution
VBulletin is too clunky
Esotalk got abandoned.
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE WORDPRESS FOR FORUMS…YET
While I haven’t integrated WordPress and bbPress yet, this topic looks helpful:

If you’re concerned about bells and whistles, your best bet might be to stick with version 9.0, since there are many more plugins that are known to be compatible. Right now, trying to use the older plugins on 1.0.1 might get you a lot of honks and farts instead.
wow thats good! Thanks for this 
I’m going to put in a standard disclaimer here: iframes are dangerous.
Example: If someone manages to put in malicious code in a bbPress post and you edit it via the admin side using this plugin, it is possible you could bugger your WP install. Now it’s a slim possibility, but iframes are bad, evil and annoying and should be avoided if possible.
Great idea for a plugin, use it responsibly, folks.
I’m not sure how I’d go about that, could somebody post a step by step tutorial? I’ve never dove this far into bbpress before.
Thanks guys, I’d owe you one
Thanks. I was considering making this exact plugin myself. Glad to see I don’t need to now 
If you are going to resort to iframe’ing it then you may as well use some sort of hosted solution.
I guess, but you would assume he would have copied and pasted that in if he followed the plugins directons.
(not recommended) Remove the bbpress header.php and replace it with a symlink to the wordpress header.php
(recommended) Deep Integrate WordPress and bbPress and have bbpress call the wordpress header not the bbpress header.
I found some older posts about similar problems to this, but nothign that really helped, plus they were all for the 0.x versions and I am using 1.x which I am guessing may be different.
I have combined bbpress and wordpress databases (WP 2.
and all members have been set to inactive status. But I can’t find anything in Mysql to cause this, so can’t globally change them all to member status. They all seem to have the same bb_capabilities value as the couple of members who I have manually made to ‘member’ status, so that doesn’t help.
And I have thousands of members so manually changing them all through the admin interface seems to be a nightmare.
Can someone tell me what database fields to change to make a member to be a ‘member’ status please?
Thanks.
The plugin doesn’t add define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1); to your bb-config.php file. It’s very easy to miss that
Total newbie here, but I’m a blogger using WordPress 2.8.x who is thinking of adding a discussion forum to my site.
I am NOT a coder whatsoever, so please keep that in mind when answering, although I do have a friend who is one but I would need to be conscientous about using his time.
My question is whether bbPress 1.0 will easily integrate with WP 2.8.x as I have it currently configured. Obviously I’d want it to look similar to my site and have all the standard forum bells/whistles.
If not, does anyone have any other suggestions? I just began researching forums today. I’ve come across IPB and phpBB as other options, but again, I have no idea how easy it would be to integrate those.
Any help you can give would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks.
Hi !
First, I’m verry sorry for my english, but I’m a french user of bbpress
So.
I have a wordpress website, and I delete the username restrictions ( no : @ ect on the username ).
But, when a user who has a username with special characters ( like : ) tries to login on bbpress, bbpress says that the user doesn’t exist.
How to delete this restriction and resolve this problem ?
Thanks !
He also said:
I have already installed the plugin bbPress Integration for WordPress.
which implies that he already added the code,
I wouldn’t use this. I’m deep integrating myself but for beginners, it will work.
Unfortunately that plugin doesn’t work with WordPress 2.8…few things are broken
It’s not an ideal solution, but good enough for beginners who just want to embed a forum into their blog. Thanks for posting
