This is such a nub question, but what goes first the WordPress install followed by bbPress? Or do they install at the same time, the documentation is confusing me because all it say is configure the config.php file in the bbPress folder, but doesn’t say much else? Any help past this would be great! Thanks.

Never mind I figured it out.

Can you post what you did and what resources you used, so others with the same problem might find this post when they are searching for a solution to their problem?

Basically though, you would install WordPress first, then use the same database for bbPress, but with a different table prefix for the bbPress tables. Then there are configuration options in config.php in the bbpress folder. Some of those can only be answered AFTER installing WordPress, like these:

$bb->wp_table_prefix = '';

$bb->wp_home = '';

$bb->wp_siteurl = '';
