I have discovered that there is a very easy way to integrate a BBPress forum inside of a WordPress blog. I havent found anyone in the forums doing it in this way so I will explain it here.
1. Asumed that you have instaled wordpress and bbpress, and you have integrated bbpress with wordpress following the steps showed in bbpress installation process.
2. You have to go to the administration pannel in your wordpress (wp-admin)
3. Create a page named Forum. Chose HTML and include the following code:
<iframe id=”forum” name=”forum” src=”http://your_url/bbpress_folder” frameborder=”0″ framespacing=”0″ scrolling=”auto” border=”0″ style=”width:925px; height:1000px; ” >
Sorry, your browser doens’t support iframe. Please upgrade your browsers.
</iframe>
replace the bold characters for the apropiate values in your web. The number in bold is the with of your blog. In that case (I use primepress theme) it is 925
4. Now we only have to add the widget to show the page, or like in my case, the theme shows all the pages in the blog as options in the header. We only have to remove the header and the footer of the forum.
5. In your bbpress directory go to bbtemplates and make a copy of kakumei directory. You could call it noheader directory and open it.
6. Open header.php and replace this
<body id=”<?php bb_location(); ?>”>
<div id=”wrapper”>
<div id=”main”>
<div class=”search” align=”right”>
<?php search_form(); ?>
</div>
<?php if ( bb_is_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>
with this
<body id=”<?php bb_location(); ?>”>
<div id=”wrapper”>
<div id=”main”>
<div class=”search” align=”right”>
<?php search_form(); ?>
</div>
<?php if ( bb_is_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>
7. Open footer.php and delete this section
<div id=”footer” role=”contentinfo”>
<p><?php printf(__(‘%1$s is proudly powered by bbPress.’), bb_option(‘name’), “http://bbpress.org”) ?></p>
<!– If you like showing off the fact that your server rocks –>
<!– <p class=”showoff”>
<?php
global $bbdb;
printf(
__( ‘This page generated in %s seconds, using %d queries.’ ),
bb_number_format_i18n( bb_timer_stop(), 2 ),
bb_number_format_i18n( $bbdb->num_queries )
);
?>
</p> –>
</div>
<?php do_action(‘bb_foot’); ?>
8. Open style.css and delete this
#wrapper {
background: #fff url(‘images/page_header_tile.png’) repeat-x 0px -15px;
}
9. You can add the reference a bbpress.org in the wordpress footer.
Hope this help

This is the forum page:
Both bbPress and WordPress can be integrated so the login is shared.
With bbPress 0.9 you will need special plugins to use WP 2.7 or 2.8
bbPress 1.0 can share the login with WP 2.7 or 2.8 without plugins.
However many plugins do not yet work with 1.0, so keep that in mind.
Real names as an option is nice but I’d hate to see it mandatory as some countries are trying to do. My experience is that people either have manners or they don’t, real names, in person, online or otherwise won’t stop rude people much. The problem is once your real name is online, your employer or in the USA your health insurance can use anything you say against you, no matter how innocent it might be.
But that doesn’t change the fact you should be able to use your native characters in bbPress and WordPress if you wish
I’m curious if the user login plugin above will also allow you to use your name with the login and not just the Display Name.
Note that bbPress 1.0 also allows you to login via your email address once you are registered. There is a plugin for 0.9 that does the same thing.
I have been looking forward to the release of bbPress 1.0 since I thought that users at last would be able to use usernames with diacritic characters like my own name Göran. To my disappointment this is not so. I installed bbPress 1.0.1 and when trying to register as a user with the name Göran it was suggested (in Swedish) that I chose the name Gran instead.
Please suggest a solution! This is a major drawback for a simple and useful forum. It must concern a lot of forums with users that have names that not conform to English spelling.
I have raised this question with earlier versions of bbPress but never recieved any useful solution. I run a forum where I have to tell users that they cannot use their real names. Other Swedish forums do the same. Please help!
@andywilliams244 Try this for a nifty nav bar that shows at the very top of your site (maybe use this at the very top of both your WordPress and bbPress site?):
1) Check this link out: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic55647.html
2) What you want to do is make a really simple PHP file, lets call it “andybar.php” (if you have trouble making one copy one of your .php bbpress files and rename it)
3) Copy the code from that page into the php file. (you probably want to open with Notepad or Wordpad)
4) Fill in the links how you want them to be, like:
<li><a href="http://www.andywebsite.com">ANDY_WEBSITE</a></li>5) Save the php file and upload it into the folder of your theme.
6) Put this in the header where you want the bar to display:
<?php bb_head(); ?>
<?php include('andybar.php');?>
<br>
</head>7) The bar should appear at the very top of your bbPress site. You can easily change the colors with the CSS inside that one php file.
You might need to play with the bbPress CSS if there is a spacing issue above or below the bar. Hope this helps!
I put
define( 'WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1 );in bb-config, but I still have the same problem.I can log into WPMU, BuddyPress and bbPress all with the same credentials. Logging into any of them doesn’t log me out of any of the others.
When I log into WPMU or BuddyPress, I am logged into both of them but not bbPress. IF I am logged out of all three, when I log into bbPress I am only logged into bbPress. I can log into bbPress and WPMU seperately and I remain logged into both.
If I am logged into both WPMU and bbPress, I can log out of one but remain logged into the other.
I am presuming I should just be able to log into any of the three and be logged into ALL three?
Thanks for your help above (I’ve cleared the cache and checked my settings again and again
Any more ideas?
Topic: 0.9.x version request.
Hi bbpress staff and coders ,
I want to ask u the bbpress 0.9.x latest pack ( 0.9.5 ) . Currently I need to study the code of this previous version for security pourpose , and I would be very glad to u if can provide my request .
Sorry for nuisance .
Regards.
Don’t rename bb-config-sample.
Finally, I have also created the database in phpMyAdmin. Of course there’s 0 tables.
That’s fine
You have to create the DB before bbPress can connect to it. bbPress doesn’t make the DB for you (any more than WordPress does so this should be familiar).You should be able to run the install now, though make sure bbPress can write to the bbpress folder, so it can create the bb-config.php file as it goes (you can remove the access later).
Topic: Installation madness o_O
Hi everyone,
I’ve successfully installed PHPBB3 forums, WordPress blogs etc etc… and somehow, I’m having a nightmare installing BBpress…
I’m not a coding/IT guru but I’m not a beginner either so this makes the thing even more frustrated. By wanting to make the installation process easy, the description lacks a lot of details I believe. Here’s what I have:
– Yahoo web hosting
– MySQL Server version: 4.1.14
– MySQL client version: 3.23.49
– phpMyAdmin latest version
Steps:
1. download bbpress
2. upload it to gufugumu.com/bbpress
3. go to the url gufugumu.com/bbpress -> installation window appears fine
4. Step1 – fill the information
– Database name : guillos
– Database user : admin
– Database password : *********
Then comes the famous error : “There was a problem connecting to the database you specified. Please check the settings, then try again.”
So I can’t pass step1. I then look in the forum but could not find anything usefull. One would expect that installing a forum should not require advanced PHP or MySQL knowledge. This is quite annoying.
Also, if I try to remove the “-sample” from the “bb-config-sample.php” then I get the error message “ERROR: Could not establish a database connection”. Finally, I have also created the database in phpMyAdmin. Of course there’s 0 tables.
Any help would be extremly nice as I’m about to give up and go for PHPBB3…
Thanks in advance
