I need to make bbPress forum to one WordPress installation and I want to ask other users what is in their opinion better solution for bbPress’ database: should it have separate database or to use existing database of WordPress?
Untill now, I used separate databases, but I found one reason for using only one database: WP plugins for automatic backup of database could then backup bbPress’ tables too. I don’t know for any similar plugin for bbPress.
Your experiences?
You can include bbPress (bb-load.php specifically) in your WordPress config so you will have access to bbPress functions there.
Or, if you just need access to that one function, you can try something like this:

I don’t think so. Simple:Press is definitely a WordPress plugin. I suspect it’s due to licensing issues.
But, Simple:Press is a WordPress plugin. bbPress is not.
if you want the simple theme is easy to “fix”
tomorrow i create a simple theme for bbpress 
I’m trying to insert the Like button from Facebook into my bbpress-based forum. Therefor i need the exact url of each reply.
is there a code for that? at the moment im using <?php topic_posts_link(); ?> but thats not the best one, cos it generates a link to the topic url, instead to the reply url.
it needs deep integration? #fail
we thought you designed the theme so that overhead of deep integration can be avoided
the css need a class, i’ll add tomorrow
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/ works in 1.0.2 and in trunk (is a very simple plugin). Your users must use the right syntax of the img tag <img src="http://the-url.com" />.
Thank you very much! It’s great!
OK, thanks!
I’ve recently made some code with PHP to try to send mail, and after making the right configuration in php.ini it worked. After that I downloaded bbPress and I thought it would be sufficient to just have the right configuraiton in PHP ini, which is the server for outgoing mail (at my broadband supplier) and things like that…
I only tried those two plugins you mention with no luck.
Im using bbPress 1.0.2
Are there any other solutions?
That’s the plan, but that’s a long way off. For the foreseeable future, bbPress needs to be installed separately from WordPress.
What are you trying to get a link to? There are topics, then there are posts (replies actually) which are just anchor links in a topic. There’s no such concept as a single post in bbPress that I know of (unlike WordPress where you can display a single post with single.php)
What are you trying to do? Maybe post an example of something here that you’re trying to link to.
Need more information about your setup (what version bbPress did you install and what plugins have you tried?)
This plugin will allow your members to upload images to your forum:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/ was working up to 0.9; not sure with 1.0
There was also a plugin to allow images in posts, but it didn’t offer any hosting:

You need a mail server on your system so you can send out mail. Mercury (Pegasus Mail) is a mail server for XAMPP. Without some sort of way to send mail from your system, the confirmations will never be sent out.
added php_value magic_quotes_gpc 1 – to .htaccess in both WPMU ROOT and BBPRESS ROOT DIRS, no effect…
The BuddyPress Default theme for bbPress is ready and available for the download.
ATTENTION: REQUIRES the deep integration between bbPress and WordPress/MU.
For info, and download link please go here.

No, I don’t think so. I’ve just Installed bbPress, and followed the instructions. Nothing was mentioned about Mercury. What is Mercury?
