Wordpress and BBPress integration

May 27th, 2009 · No Comments · Computers

This is not new, it’s just a bullet pointed version of the fantastic screencast over on the official site. Hopefully this will be helpful if you are just looking for a reminder of how to do it without wanting to rewatch the whole movie.

  • Install WP
    • Create a config file
    • Set collation type in config file to utf8_general_ci
    • Run installer
    • Login / change your pw / logout
  • Set up the keys and salts in the config file and login again to make sure you still can
  • Install BBPress
    • Create a config file
      • Include the collation
      • Leave the keys blank for now
    • During the integration step of the installer include the keys
  • Logout of BBPress then login as admin from wp installation
    • Go to wordpress settings
    • Skip BBPress speed up techniques for now
  • Login to the Wordpress installation
    • Install the new plugin BBPress Integration and activate
    • Fill out settings for the plugin
    • add the cookie settings to config file

I’d recommend watching the screencast if you haven’t before but hopefully this will be helpful if you are just looking for a reminder of the non-intuitive parts of the install. Enjoy your integrated sites!
