looking to match my wordpress to my bbpress.
Hi All,
Havnt seen any tutorials before doing integration, i guess thats the blunder i did..hence this problem.
Problem: Cant login to bbpress admin, after WP integration, get message that User doesnt exist. However i CAN login to my WP admin without problems.
Versions
WP :2.7.1
BBpress :0.9.0.4
What i did: from bbpress integrate wordpress section i filled out following only, nothing esle
1. Gave my WP url
2. Gave my WP blog url
3. Gave my WP secret key
4. Gave the WP table prefix as: wp –
thats all dint do anything else. and i UPDATED these details.
Immediately got logged out. and now cannot login to forum.mysite.com/bb-login.php (bbpress forum is in subdomain)
What else i did: i generated new password thinking its a password issue. No luck
Also installed Fix Admin plugin in Plugin folder of WP from Cpanel, as soon as i installed it took me to login page of BBPress, and i tried logging in, No Luck. User doesnt exist message.
Error seen on left hand TOP side of bbpress login page when login fails:
bbPress database error: [Table ‘saphruse_bbp01.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT ID FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘admin’
bbPress database error: [Table ‘saphruse_bbp01.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘admin’
Please help.
Thanks a mill.
I integrated WP 2.71 and the the bbPress v0.9.0.4.
I used the plugin to downgrade the cookies.
I no longer am able to preview posts in wordpress. I have another non-integrated blog and this is not an issue. Thus, it seems to me it is a bbPress issue.
I cannot login to both at the same time.
I want this to work but am finding the integration to be a problem. At times it makes me think WordPress and bbPress were developed entirely by seperate groups..
Hi,
I also was stuck on that for a while. I found it easier to downgrade WP 2.7 cookies with this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-26-and-bbpress-09-integration/
Just make sure you juse just the old SECRET_KEY in wp-config.php and match it to the BB_SECRET_KEY in bb-config.php
Clear your domain cookies after activating the plugin and login again. Test login/out on both installations.
Of course you mast have completed the integration steps described here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101
Chrishajer is right. I have bbpress linked with WordPress. I don’t want the users to change their own profile with wrong email adresses or new user names.
_ck_ – where do I have to insert this piece of code???

Take a good look 
It isnt even a wordpress theme! 
I use the latest wordpress MU version (trunk), and just the alpha-6 version of bbPress
Ohw, and a recent version (also trunk) from the buddypress website
first, never post your login info, mysql or otherwise on the web, now you have to change it
second this is the bbpress support forum, not the wordpress support forum
(but your problem does seem weird, there should be no error with that)
What version of bbPress and WordPress are you using?
hi guys, i downloaded the fresh baked cookies plugin to support integration with wordpress, however, if i access my site without the www. before it, i do not remain logged in.
is this a known issue? hopefully it’s an easy fix…
thanks!
Been reading these forums for over two days and not making progress.
Have WordPress 2.71 (not MU) and then BBPress .9. WordPress is installed in a subdomain http://newsedge.webjunk.com
Installed the Freshly Baked Cookies plugin to allow bbpress to read newer cookies. Both WordPress and BBPress work fine on their own.
If I create an Id with WordPress or BBPress I can log into both. Cookies are not shared. Have to login seperately.
If (after loggin in both) I logout of WordPress, then I am logged out of both. If I log out from BBPress I am still logged into WordPress.
The instructions on here are all over the place between various versions. Am thinking maybe tthere is other things that may have to be copied over from WP-CONFIG.PHP to BB-CONFIG.PHP. Could someone post something consise on what needs to be copied? Or anything else I should check?
Thanks…..

bbPress has the same requirements as wordpress, so yes 4.0 is the minimum
https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/
Maybe when they realse the 2.8 version of WordPress ?
The instructions are right under the wordpress integration menu in bbpress
“if WP and BBPress are sharing the same database”
And if WordPress is diferent database of the BBPress?
There are settings that stay in the database.
For example the “WordPress database secret” is stored in your database settings and would be changed when you restored the db. That will completely affect cookies.
So double check that it’s still same in WP and bbPress after you restore.
It’s possible that the .htaccess one level up (WordPress directory) is conflicting with this .htaccess. You can just turn off permalinks for now until you figure it out. If you’re intent on figuring it out to get permalinks working, you might want to spend some time browsing threads that are tagged identical to this one.
I did that and it takes me back to the forum page.
You need to add a .htaccess file for bbPress. You generate the rules by going to your site, here (once logged in as keymaster):
http://www.example.com/forum-directory/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php
Then, paste those rules into a .htaccess file in your forum root.
If you are on a host with a menu based system like Cpanel or Plesk they usually have an option to password protect a directory. You can use that to protect your bbpress forum install (and wordpress) and that way it will be impossible to access for anyone except you.
There is a bbpress plugin that forces login to be required to see the forum so you could install that and even if anyone found it, they would only see a login.
ArrowJ, where did you add the .htacess file?
I have one for WP.
Is this a new one?
added .htaccess…problem solved
2,71 and the latest stabel version of bbPress.
When I turn off pretty permalinks everything works great, but when I turn it on it tries to load the page as if it were part of my Wordpres blog and of course that post does not exist. I use advanced permalink structures in my WordPress blog so I’m not sure why this is happening. Any suggestions? I do not have my blog integrated with my forum (other than sharing the same db).
