i have integrated wp/bb following the instructions. the Guangzhou theme works well enouvh in wp. it SAYS it’s ‘compat with bb 1.0+’ but when i copy the theme over to bb, it makes the site 500. deleting the dir doesn’t force the site to “oops” back to the default theme. i have to change the theme entry in the db back to the default to get the site to behave again.
is this the way wp/bb ‘compatible’ themes actually work? i wouldn’t really expect it to work like that.
Just wanna give give my heartfelt thanks to all the bbPress contributors, John James Jacoby in particular of course along with Gautam, for their persistent efforts as of late.
At long last, I think many of us are seeing light at the end of the tunnel, not to mention we seem to moving towards it at an ever increasing pace. I was a skeptic, but now I believe.
I’m bound to be opinionated once in a while (I predict some light ruckus when the developers reveal what 2011 should hold for WordPress). So just keep in mind that, when all is said and done, I am sincerely grateful.

Hey,
I am looking to integrate a bbPress forum into my site (http://ThePerfectLevel.com). Basically, like this site here, I want to keep my existing WordPress theme but have a page where forums are displayed in the main post area.
I have setup the forums already (http://ThePerfectLevel.com/forums) but don’t know how to get them integrated into the site.
I also am having trouble with cookies! I have followed all the steps in WPbbpThemes’s guide (http://wpbbpthemes.org/integration/) but when I log into my main blog and then navigate to the forums, I am required to re-login.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks!
I have made my second attempt at installing bbPRess in the web/content/forum directory – and integrating the databases.
Last time I believe I left the User Table Prefix as ‘bb_’.
The install ‘worked’ but I could not add new topic, reply, etc. with any user.
This time I entered it as ‘wp_’ and I have installation errors –
My error report:

I can enter new topics (last time I could not – attempting so would give me a page ‘topic closed’) BUT I cannot read the topic.
Also, a ‘user’ named ‘anonymous’ made a post 40 years ago…
What’s going on??
I did a full install of word press yesterday with no issues. Today I tried to install bbpress and I can’t access the database. I am trying to use the same database used with word press so I know the database is set up correctly. I went into advanced settings to change host, using different tags, and I even tried to create a config file with the database inf, but it still doesn’t work.
Ant ideas or suggestions?
Hi,
I’ve just integrated WP with BB but i’ve lost Keymaster, because I assigned by mistake administrator to administrador and not to Keymaster.
If I delete that table in PHPMyAdmin yes, I return without integration and I have a keymaster… but if I resolve the Role Mapping and integrate…. nothing happens.
How can I manually set a WP user a Keymaster role in Database?
Thanks!
Im new to blogging as well as to making websites. I have a blog hosted on blogger.com of google. I am planning to buy it a domain as i believe i can change the default example.blogspot.com into your own domain name. My question is it is possible to integrate BBpress into blogger?
Once again the forums are plagued by spam – is akismet even active here?
Is there a plugin out there, that allows users to give other users props on their posts? For instance, if an user likes a certain post, they like Props, and that user’s Props number increases and its displayed under the User’s name?
thanks
I am a bit confused om how to use the files in Subversion. Should I create the same directory structure in /my-languages/ and place each file in the same places they have in Subversion? Or only one group of po, mo files is needed?
It would help a bit if more detailed instructions were given in the Installation ToDo list. Thanks in advance.
