Hi, I am a Newbie. I have downloaded and installed WordPress and bbPress locally. I used the same database for wordpress and bbpress. I was able to open both of them at the following locations.

http://localhost/ (wordpress)

http://localhost/bbpress/ (bbpress)

Now, how can open bbpress forums on the wordpress site? I am trying to create a website where one of the pages contains forums.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

bbpress is a standalone forum it doesn’t really go into wordpress. A lot of people create a theme that looks like the wordpress one, like this site.

Home, Plugins, About, Docs, Blog, and Download is WP

Forums is bbPress

I help out people with that stuff: wpbbpthemes.org

Thanks dude! Do you know if I can find step by step instructions anywhere? I want to do something like this site. All pages in wordpress except one page in bbpress.

I am planning to use this theme if that makes any difference:

Nothing step by step because all themes aren’t created the same.

The idea is to imitate the header.php, footer.php, and the content goes into something similar to page.php
