Hi all.

Can bbpress be constructed to be visible as the main site where the WordPress site is installed? i.e. http://domain.com is the main WP site and http://domain.com/bbpress is the wordpress site.

What I am looking for is creating http://domain.com the main bbpress site, skipping the WP blog.

Advise is appreciated.

Thanks.

umm…, no! bbPlugin by default using a subdirectory of WordPress but by some skills on creating a pro theme for your blog that give the forums pages, and left the permalink of the forum root (called Forums) blank you can get what you want (it’s jus’ a advice, I’m not sure!)

Assuming you are using bbPress 2.x you can accomplish something similar with shortcodes. Create a page with the shortcode and change the WP setting to showing a page instead of the blog as the homepage.

would suggest the same thing Andre has advised but there were still options left on your side to think about that will work to your preference and advantage.
