Just one database is enough provided that the two bbPress installs have different values for their $bb_table_prefix settings in their config.php files.

Like

bb_ for one and

bb2_ or bb_cool_ (or whatever) for the other.

[n22]

and if I install 2 bbpress in my website (2bbpress ..not 2 sections).

I should have 2 MyQsl database??? or just 1 is enough?

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

suleiman, if you installed bbPress first and then changesd it’s user tables to integrate with WP, none of those users have any adminn capabilities in bbPress.

Follw the steps here https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/52?replies=21#post-795 and let us know.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

This will be fixed in the next release of bbPress. Thanks!

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Atsutane,

Can you disable Ultimate Tag Warrior to see if that fixes both problems by magic?

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

doubter,

Can you try moving the file bb-includes/db-mysqli.php somewhere safe and then copying bb-includes/db.php to bb-includes/db-mysqli.php (so that the mysqli file is a duplicate of the other file)?

And, just to help troubleshoot, WordPress is working fine for you on that server?

[peiqinglong]

Thank you! I’ll post the instructions when I get a chance.

[lordcoder]

Ok i found the solution on another thread here : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/168?replies=6#post-874 .

[mozey]

suleiman,

https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

CTRL^f “We have a WordPress plugin to”

right after that, there are two wp plugins that I BELIEVE gets around this. give them a try. let us know if it works.

[ranrar]

My BBpress MySQL are only 9 strings and the Size are: 36,9 KB and one post size are 3,60 kb s0 10*1000 = (10.000/3,60) = 2777,77 post i think but that is still a lot, i got 2 blogs and one bbpress on my MySQL and i only uses about 1MB and my database is 150 MB i think

[AphelionZ]

That’s pretty cool, but the plugin is only available for WordPress. That means you’d have to call the wordpress tag within bbPress, and I dont load wordpress with my forum (way too complicated for what i need)

However, somebody could take the wordpress code and customize it for bbPress

[andyro]

Sounds like more work than I can get into right now…the integrations on abunchofcars looks great btw. Would you be willing to post your mods somewhere? It may be handy to have something like this with a little instruction so others can integrate, and just edit a single variable, such as width, to accomodate different wp templates…..thanks!

[suleiman]

Only problem here is that I’m no longer the KeyMaster on my BBPress install!

[suleiman]

does anyone else experience the problem where they stop being the KeyMaster when sharing user accounts? I’m having that issue now and I can’t login to my admin!

[Atsutane]

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare widget_akismet() (previously declared in /path/to/wp-content/plugins/akismet/akismet.php:376) in /path/to/wp-content/plugins/akismet/akismet.php on line 376

I dont know what went wrong, but this happen when i try to loading wordpress 2.0.5 using bbpress 0.73. Before when i using wordpress 2.0.4 and bbpress 0.72 on my another blog, i dont have such problem. Is it because i have update my akismet plugin or i did something wrong in the config? I only put this on the top of my config.php

require_once(‘/path/to/wp-blog-header.php’);

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

I also have the same problem with Ultimate tag warrior but i can disable that plugin, but i dont want to disable akismet. Anyone got any good suggestion?

[suleiman]

here’s one problem mozey, you can’t access the admin backend of bbpress anymore after you’ve done this trick!

I’m signed in as my site admin, and although WPMU recognizes me as the admin, BBPress does not.

[lordcoder]

Thanks for your help !

[peiqinglong]

doubter:

Are you trying to incorporate the look of your main site into bbpress or functions of WP into bbpress? If you are looking to make bbpress look a part of your site, I highly recommend that you remove all the WP code from config.php. Then make a my-templates directory inside bbpress directory, make a copy of the contents of bb-templates and drop it in there. Then modify the files to match your existing site. See an example here: http://www.abunchofcars.com/forum/

[doubter]

thanks so much for the quick reply, but sadly i am now getting this error

thanks

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

doubter,

$bb->wp_home = 'http://www.captainsdead.com';

That line in the code you pasted is missing a single quote at the end (before the semi colon).

Hope that works

[doubter]

hey gang. i typically can figure stuff out on my own, but after a week of trying to install this i have hit a wall. i am sure i am missing something fairly stupid, but any help at this point would be very helpful. i am trying to incorporate bbpress with my wp blog @ captainsdead.com. I am currently receiving this error.

arse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/captvan4/public_html/config.php on line 55

thanks in advance, very much.

There’s a phpBB importer script available in this thread: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/3

But it doesn’t convert BBCode yet. I think that feature is in the works, though.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

mokona,

The error is actually caused by the line above that on. Delete the line that says:

define(WPp_BB', true);

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

bbPress grabs the 40 most popular tags. You probably have fewer than 40 tags, so it’s grabbing a couple tags with 0 topics in them.

This will clear up on its own as you accrue more tags. Otherwise, you can manually reduce the number of tags bbPress shows in the hot tags area. See this post about customizing the tag cloud.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

cvanp, if it’s not a subdirectory, it isn’t as easy. You’ll have to change WordPress’ cookies and bbPress’.
