Hello,
I saw a somewhat similar post on here about integrating bbpress into wordpress pages, but what I want to do is relatively simpler than that.
Basically all I want to do is to “embed” a given bbpress forum into a static webpage. I’d like to not have the top header and all of the navigational links appear, but I’ll take what I can get for now ; P
Using the <php include> tag I was able to embed a forum into a webpage, but the problem is that the area I want to embed into is 500px wide. The bbpress forum is inside of that area but also spills out onto the rest of the page. The php include is being placed into a <div> area and I want the width fixed while the height changes based on how much content is inside it.
My code looks like:
<?php include(‘http://example.com/forums/forum.php?id=12’); ?>
I’m sure the best way to do what I want would be something like:
<?php include(‘../forums/forum.php?id=12’/main_forum); ?>
but I’m not too sure.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

I want to display login, pass of BBP in WP.
Here is my post:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-integration-login
have you found another solution?
I’m using bbPM and loving it. If you go with this – follow directions you may need to add .htacess line and check file permissions on bbPM if you have any trouble getting it to work…I also set permalinks in bbpress to name or number and added my theme look to the privatemessages.php. Very Nice.
What version of bbPress and WordPress did you integrate?
This plugin used to work with 0.9 to restore keymaster access:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/
My guess is that it’s a problem with the permalink setup. Try turning off permalinks in the bbPress admin and see it the profile links work then.
Please post more information about your setup. WordPress and bbPress version, if you created an .htaccess file with rewrite rules, post a link to your forums. Thanks
Sorry, I was substituting pseudo-variable names in there: $site_title is the site title from the admin (“bbPress Support Forums” here) and the $topic_title is the topic title (this topic has “All RSS Feeds Broken?”). So, here, the RSS description is
bbPress Support Forums ยป Topic: All RSS Feeds Broken?
.......................^
and in a 1.0.1 installation it is
bbPress Support Forums Topic: All RSS Feeds Broken?
There is no raquo in the 1.0.1 installation, and the feed validator is complaining about that one character.
I went with Inove in the end. Turned out pretty good:

I installed bbPress last night and integrated it with an existing wordpress site. However, this morning I was unable to log into my forum with my original keymaster username and password. I can log in with my username and password from my wordpress site, but it doesn’t have admin privileges so I am now unable to access the back end of my forum.
When I try to log in as the keymaster it tells me that the user does not exist. It also won’t let me retrieve my password since the user is not recognized.
I would love some help on this. I am new to wordpress and don’t have any programming experience, so if the answer is technical, please keep in mind that I might need a little extra hand holding. Thanks!
to display login, pass from BBPress in WP.
one solution is to use something like this (directly where you want to see it)
<iframe src=”mylogin.php” style=”width: 600px; height: 60px”
scrolling=”no” marginwidth=”0″ marginheight=”0″ frameborder=”0″ vspace=”0″ hspace=”0″>
</iframe>
login.php :
<?php
require_once(‘/home2/bulbpark/public_html/autograph/test/bbp/bb-load.php’);
if ( !in_array( bb_get_location(), array( ‘login-page’, ‘register-page’ ) ) ) login_form();
?>
Enjoy
dear _ck_,
i did as you suggested with adding
<?php require(‘/local-path-to-bbpress/bb-load.php’); ?>
to wordpress but it conflicts with wp-admin.
any idea how to resolve this?

I came across a theme today that has both a WordPress and a bbPress version:
http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/guangzhou
Are there any other themes people know of like this?
@sambauers Any progress on the bbpress live plugin?
I’m trying to implement the onvertigo theme on my website. But when I use the bbpress smileys plugin by ck, the smileys appear all laid out on the new topic form. You can see what I mean here http://bbshowcase.org/forums/?new=1
You’ll need to log in.
Any ideas how to get it to appear normally ?
This problem seems restricted the the new topic form.
You need to deep integrate bbpress into wordpress not the other way around.
Well, I just learnt OOP, sessions, cookies, security, mysql injections prevention, static methods etc etc…
in the past couple of weeks, so I built my user system, thanks for your patience Ipstenu.
Lucky I had Visual Basic training at college so learning PHP to the extent i have now, was easy.
although I think, you might get some more threads asking similar questions.
Hi Guys,
I am new to bb and wp. Just installed the latest version of WP and BB. Database and cookie integration works great. Now i have a couple a questions about template/themes integration.
1. i want to use bbpress login system on both WP and BB (i.e. want to display login pass on WP).
here what i’ve tried to do:
a) in wp_config.php added require_once(‘address/bb-load.php’);
b) in the header.php (in themes) added
<div class=”login_bg”>
<?php if ( !in_array( bb_get_location(), array( ‘login-page’, ‘register-page’ ) ) ) login_form(); ?>
</div>
so it did the job, i was happy until i went to wp-admin and found out that it is messed up…
any suggestions?
2. What would you suggest for themes integration (to get the same feel and look)?
Thanks.
Upgrade was smooth thank you very much!
Has anyone actually got this working yet?
I’m running bbpress 1.0.2 and the latest WordPress 2.8.2. User and cookie integration is working perfectly, but I’ve been trying to do a “deep integration” so that I can use WordPress’s templates.
Whenever I try to include “wp-blog-header.php” in the config file like in past installations of bbpress, my forum spews a blank white page at me. I *know* that it’s finding the header file, because if I purposely change it to the wrong path, it’ll spew out an error at me.
Just to try it, I’ve also attempted to include wp-load.php, wp-config.php, as well and have ended up with the same blank page every time. At first I suspected it may be a permalinks issue, but even after disabling that the blank page persisted.
just out of interest, which quote plugin and any other plugins
I’m putting bbpress inside a custom header, but I’m changing very little about the set up. But my problem is that all of the links in the header and footer are all leading back to the blog homepage, and I have no idea why.
My test site: http://heroicdreams.com/wpmu/bbpress/
I have no idea what’s going on. They are just simple links, but for some reason clicking on them always sends them to the homepage. If i’m in the forums and type the same link in the address bar it takes me there no problem… Can anyone help? have a clue what’s going on??
