I think the bbPress Live WordPress plugin will do what you want.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-live/

“bbPress Live allows the display of information from

a bbPress 1.0 forum from inside a WordPress blog.”

Thank you but I use version of 0.9.0.2. Another I want to see my forum in a page in my blog theme. Forum becomes a page and when I click on the page name, forum open in page and no in another address. Have any plugin for this?

[@chrishajer Participant 16 years, 1 month ago]

There is no plugin to do that with bbPress that I know of. You didn’t actually ask about that initially either. To put bbPress info in your WordPress sidebar, with 1.0-alpha, bbPress Live is great.

The closest thing for you with version 0.9.0.2 is bbSync. bbPress live is for the 1.0 versions.

Are they simply trying to make a link to their forum from their blog and just mask the url so it looks like it’s a page of WordPress?

Just install the forums in /forums/ and make a link from WordPress’s link administration.

_ck_, I think in general people would be very happy if bbPress could live in a WordPress page, so you have WordPress header, footer, sidebar, look and feel. The menu item is the least of the problems usually. Everyone wants the look and feel of WordPress and right now that’s not the easiest thing to accomplish.

If bbPress were a plugin, which it’s not, it would accomplish what most people want.

Bbpress is very good forum for my wordpress. But I want that it be a plugin and when I click on name of forum, it open in my wordpress theme; not on other address. Can you try to create that? Thank you.

You can make bbPress look like WordPress and simply be installed at /forums/ on your website. But bbPress will never be a plugin, it’s way too complex for that and has it’s own structure.

Because bbPress 1.0 uses BackPress (parts of WordPress), when WordPress starts to use the same common core, it will one day be far easier to integrate the two. But that day is at least a year away.
