I can’t delete the existing installation, because it’s on a live, active website with 3k+ users. So I installed it in a new directory and used a different prefix. (bb1_) It should still work with that, no?

When I try to login to my bbpress forum it sends me to the 404.php page but when I refresh the page I am suddenly logged in. Have any one else experienced this problem before? How do i troubleshoot it?

If you’re getting a message that says bbPress is already installed, make sure you’ve done the following:

• Deleted all bbPress files on your site
• Deleted the bbPress database or related tables (likely prefixed with bb_)

Now, you can install a fresh copy of bbPress and run the installation process by visiting the bbpress directory.

Step 1: Use the same database information as you did for your WordPress install (if you’re not sure what you used, check the wp-config.php file).

Step 2: Check all three boxes and fill in the necessary details:

• Add integration settings

(no options)

• Add cookie integration settings

Fill in all of the boxes. You can get the keys and salts from your WordPress wp-config.php and the rest of the settings from the General Settings section in WordPress Admin.

• Add user database integration settings

If you used the default table prefix (wp_) when you installed WordPress, you don’t need to change any of these options.

• Show advanced database settings

(Leave unchecked) If you used your WordPress database information in Step 1 as I explained, you don’t need to check this box.

Step 3: If you did everything correctly, you should get a drop-down box that lets you select the WordPress user that should become the bbPress admin. If you get boxes to create a bbPress admin, you did something wrong in Step 1 or Step 2.

Configuring WordPress

To ensure that logging into WordPress sets all the necessary cookies for using bbPress, you should install the bbPress Integration Plugin and then set the “bbPress URL” option to match the URL to your bbPress forum (Settings -> bbPress Integration).

Also, make sure you add this line to the top of your wp-config.php file, just below <?php:

define( 'COOKIEPATH', '/' );

If you’ve done everything I explained here, single-login should work as expected.

This is the same problem I’ve been fighting. Would really love a solution to it…

I tried Raamdev’s suggestion and I got this error upon installation:

Forum could not be created!

If I go to my bbpress main url, it says

Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?

And then bumps me back to the same error of the installation page.

If you have your blog in a directory, and the forums in a sub-directory called forum, then you need to put this script in the WordPress blog directory, where you would find your wp-config.php file. Otherwise you would need to edit the defines on lines 37 and 38:

define( 'W2BC_WP_PATH', '' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

define( 'W2BC_BB_PATH', 'forum/' ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

There are no downloads, but here is the script – http://wordpress-to-bbpress-converter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/w2bc.php

It currently doesn’t support user migration, but that should be easy (and should be done before running the script). I think it’d be basically renaming the tables, though I’m not sure.

Also, *PLEASE* make a backup of your WordPress blog and follow the instructions carefully.

Hello

I need import all topic and post from wordpress to bbpress

Can i ? or not

Thanks

Some translations do not have all the phrases done. They may be from older versions of bbpress or the person who did it just didn’t bother.

There may be a newer translation file or you may have to add the translations yourself.

I signed up with netsol for a WordPress account. As such, they do not allow ftp access outside of WordPress. I installed the Myftp plug-in, but that only lets me upload files individually, instead of uploading folders.

So what are my options, aside from individually uploading 200+ bbPress files one at a time, to get up bbPress from within WordPress?
