UPDATED: bbPress integrated…
Posted by nitestrike in : Blogging, Dev, Site Changes , trackback
So I’m doing this a little bit out of order but I have installed bbPress and WordPress on a new site, yes I’m slowly ticking up the AnderTek family of sites. I have them up and running with each having their own DB, but using WordPress DB for the user accounts. Just a little hint when using two Databases make sure that you don’t have the password and host server names swapped, just does not seem to work 
So for those ticking off points, I’ve got the two installed (WordPress / bbPress). I still have some integration like having them use the WP Theme in bbPress and to have a link to forum (bbPress). Since this is going to require some coding I’m not going to develop on Dev-n-Progress, just not going to be stable enough to allow.
To-Do:
Wrap WP Theme around bbPress(11/04/2006)Link for bbPress forums in Theme(11/06/2006- Cross Posting
- Picture Gallery
- Calendar page and function
Tally-ho
Update - 11/04/2006:
I have wrapped the WordPress Theme around bbPress install, which just took some tweaking of the bbPress Theme and referencing the WordPress install that it was associated with it.
Update - 11/06/2006:
They didn’t take much, and was quite a simple, I now have a static page that access the access the forums. I had not updated the options permalink options to date and title. Then the setting I found on the bbPress Support Forums setting the Page’s Post Slug = Folder name of the bbPress install folder. Side note you do need to have bbPress located in a sub-folder of the WordPress you are referencing from.
