Hi,
I am sure this has been asked but I must not be typing the right search phrase because I can not find the solution.
I have successfully integrated a few WordPress/bbPress installations but am having an issue with the latest one I am setting up for a client.
WordPress is successfully installed.
The latest download of bbPress has been installed and uploaded to the server.
The WordPress bbPress integration plugin has been installed.
The appropriate define cookiepath and cookiedomain settings have been added to the wp-config.php
When starting the bbPress installation and configuration, I keep getting…
…problem connecting to the WordPress user database.
I know the auth keys and all the other keys are correct as well as the database prefix of wp_.
I am missing something?
Thanks,
Bert
Try bbp_is_forum() 
Otherwise, because of other plugins like BuddyPress it’s hard to know exactly if we’re in *any* bbPress page without running through all the _is_ functions first. I have it set ‘bbPress’ as the body class if a bbPress page is detected, but that happens pretty late in the game. Would be better off checking for a specific _is_ and going from there.
Thanks Ben, that’s great, I’d not come across that notation before.
Second question: I’d like, for filtering content on different pages, to have an is_forum_page() function which returns true if the current page is in the whole forum environment – there’s not one of these built already? And any advice on the best way to construct one?
Can you install bbpress on a WordPress 3.0 multisite and have a single forum that powers all websites in the network?
No. You have to install multiple forums.

What happens if I want to integrate my bbpress with a wordpress installation that already has a user with the same username as my bbpress installation’s key master?
Since my user tables are in a separate databases I configured user role mapping in the admin panel. I also configured the advanced db settings for user integration by specifying wp_ as the prefix and 1 as the blog id. However, after doing that I cannot login to my bbpress anymore using the key master account or any other account.
It means you are not supporting bbPress standalone and its plugins anymore?
Will bbPress standalone die after plugin’s birth?
I’m not happy with this plugin’s stupid idea.

MotaBoy, yes, in Settings -> Forums.
While I can say that this will almost definitely not appear in the bbPress standalone version of bbPM, I’m currently porting bbPM to the bbPress plugin, so I’ll try to implement this in an upcoming version.

Hi! Is it currently possible to change the slug from ‘forums’ to something else?
“The bbp-twentyten theme is currently a child theme, but will most likely be a parent theme”
that’s great news, thanks!
The bbp-twentyten theme is currently a child theme, but will most likely be a parent theme and include all of the updated twentyten’s theme files in addition to the bbPress ones. Granted, that’s going to crowd the theme up with a ton of files, but that’s kind of just what happens when you add a ton of functionality.
I couldn’t find an answer elsewhere in the forums but the question is:

thanks for what looks to be a great plugin. my question is on the bbPress Twenty Ten theme: it looks like it is a child theme of the Twenty Ten theme (references the twentyten template). is that the case (and intention)? if so, does that mean i won’t be able to write child themes for bbPress Twenty Ten (or use the child themes already written for Twenty Ten)?
No. You have a very modern installation of PHP and there is some code in bbPress that now it deprecated. Nothing to worry about.

Is this plugin fully completed?? I thought it was meant to be completed in December! I don’t see it at wordpress.org. What happens for people that had deep integration and had a wordpress blog as well as bbpress operating?
Mark, body[class*=single-bbp], body[class*=page-template-page-bbp] (or if you’re feeling ambitious, body[class*=bbp]) should match bbPress plugin pages. User profile pages currently use the body class for 404 pages, which is a bug.
Find this line and make sure it says error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_USER_ERROR | E_USER_WARNING);

Theoretically, you can use anything for authentication by overriding the bb_check_login function.
