    IMHO WPMU, BuddyPress and bbPress works well if:

    – You set a wildcard domain (in my test site subdirectory based instalation doesn’t work)

    – BbPress table is in the same database as BuddyPress, WPMU and i. ..

    – BbPress has the same prefix as WPMU. For example, if you use a standard prefix to the WordPress table (for example wp_) then for bbPress give wp_bb_

    figured it out (see post above) – some reason in wp-admin mode $bb_roles was getting wiped

    Again: look in your logsand find out why the add_action is failing. That’s what you need to fix.

    Looking forward to your bbpress plugin ports! I tried doing it myself and soon ran up against my nearly complete lack of PHP skills…. ;-)

    sorry for the triple post but found the root problem.

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare checked() (previously declared in D:xampplitehtdocsbuddypresswp-contentpluginsbuddypressbp-forumsbbpressbb-adminincludesfunctions.bb-admin.php:1261) in D:xampplitehtdocsbuddypresswp-adminincludestemplate.php on line 387

    and the fix…

    function adminfix_adminfix_bbpress_init() {
    global $bbdb, $bb_roles, $wp_roles;

    if ( is_object( $bbdb ) && is_object( $bb_roles ) ) {
    return;
    }
    if ( is_object( $bbdb ) ) {
    $bb_roles =& $wp_roles;
    bb_init_roles( $bb_roles );
    return;
    }

    do_action( 'bbpress_init');

    }

    function bp_forums_extras_setup_globals() {

    adminfix_adminfix_bbpress_init();

    do_action('bp_forums_extras_init');

    }

    if (WP_ADMIN) {
    add_action( 'admin_init', 'bp_forums_extras_setup_globals', 500 );
    } else {
    add_action( 'bp_init', 'bp_forums_extras_setup_globals', 5 );
    }

    rich! @ etiviti

    ok, so i narrowed the issue down to just /wp-admin/ only

    function bp_forums_extras_setup_globals() {
    do_action( 'bbpress_init');
    }
    add_action( 'bp_init', 'bp_forums_extras_setup_globals');

    if i comment out do_action then /wp-admin/ loads up – otherwise WSOD. The action completes (calls function bp_forums_load_bbpress() ) but I guess something within WP conflicts?

    i actually didnt try. i only tried to create the topic after i installed the plugin. i was using the internal version of bbpress in BP. I can do a test to see if it happens again, i can back up my stuff, install and see what happens. would you like me to?

    yep!, same database.

    etiviti – Does your external installation of bbPress store data in the same database as your buddypress install? If not I think you will need a new $wpdb class in order to specify the right database creds.

    that was my first thought but bb_get_option and other functions are not defined if i’m trying to update some bb_option metadata from the bp dashboard side.

    @DJPaul – probably my problem – i’ve tried so many hooks, so i’ll try and start over tonight.

    do_action( 'bbpress_init' );

    This triggers BuddyPress to load the bbPress code. So as you’ve done, you need to call this early on. If it’s giving you the WSOD, you need to find out why and fix that.

    Hm, this is a fairly obviously question, so just to get it out of the way — have you gone into your /wp-admin/ -> “Forums Setup” under the BuddyPress menu, and selected the “Set up a new bbPress installation” button?

    You shouldn’t need to require anything since BP already loads it (if you have forums enabled).

    You should be able to just grab the meta using one of the bbPress meta calls.

    eg.

    bb_get_postmeta(bp_get_the_topic_post_id(), $cachekey)

    Make sure when grabbing the meta that you do a check to see if you’re on a forum post.

    I recently came across a problem similar to @etiviti (rich!)’s.

    In rate.php on line 3, you believe that bb-config.php will always reside in the root directory, but if you’re using an external bbPress integration, this won’t be the case.

    The easy way to fix this is to grab the bb config location using:

    get_site_option('bb-config-location');

    This would be for MU, not sure where the bb-config-location will be in standard WP.

    [EDIT]

    etiviti (rich!) already provided the solution!

    Declare the global $bp and use $bp->site_options[‘bb-config-location’];

    global $bp;
    require_once($bp->site_options['bb-config-location']);

    if you find an easy way to do this, please let me and other users know. if you could, writing a plug in for it would be awesome. many people have phpbb3 forums and would love to integrate them easily into bbpress

    Ah, many problems! :)

    But developer who is dealing with the conversion, slowly manages it,

    one problem at the moment,

    is for example with links.

    in phpbb links are normal like that:

     http://tv.opentuition.com/categories/13/OpenTuition-ACCA-P2-Channel

    in converted bbpress:

    <!– m –>http://tv.opentuition.com/categories/13 … P2-Channel<!– m –>

    is there a quick way to clean all this extra junk code?

    The Forums are bbPress, so you’re going about it in the correct way. Obviously you’ll need to create BP Groups for each existing forum and then update the forum IDs in the Groups database table. What sort of problems are you having?

    I meant maybe someone could take code from Buddypress and turn it into a BBpress plugin, instead of trying to force Buddypress to fit within BBpress. Half the posts on here are about BBpress these days. Buddypress is not supposed to be a forum script.

    No luck finding social network plugin for bbpress! But thanks anyway!

    This sounds more like you need a very basic social networking plugin for BBpress. Why not approach it from that end?

    I’d hate to see Buddypress reduced to a BBpress appendage.

    since i use bbPress as an external install (on a subdomain and within bp) – want to carry over some of the basic plugins. So, I’m working on bb-signatures, bb-code, bb-smiles into the BP group forums section (maybe ajaxed quote – not sure yet)

    also, i have company directory app (standard address, contact, members, deals, reviews, tagging) that runs on a hybrid wordpress based site – i’m thinking about converting this into a bp component (based on groups?)

    Also, I’m more than willing to write up a procedure or create a video instruction guide to help others do this, as long as I’m shown.

    If I have to pay to find out how to do this, then I don’t think my reciprocating with technical documentation seems fair.

    I’ve done step 1 and 3, and maybe step 4, however, I am stuck on what code to put into the file that displays the forums to make the main themes show up (step 2 most likely, and that forum post is a billion pages long and has lots of out of date stuff).

    My code attempts are here:

    https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/how-to-access-to-bbpress-admin-from-buddypress

    and here:

    https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/whats-the-code-for-the-way-buddypressorg-displays-its-forums

    Basically, my request has come down to: please share the code that can make this work and let me know what files to put it in.

    +1 to having forum categories on a per group basis.

    I already run a number of vb sites with hundreds of thousands of users and would love to someday bring that platform to wordpress/bp.

    The problem is that my forums are huge (millions of posts) and without separation, it would be impossible using group forums.

    I’d rather not have to create a separate group just to have a separate forum, as then I would end up with hundreds of groups (one forum I run has about a hundred or so subforums all are very active). That would only diminish the value of using groups imho.

    I just don’t see the feasibility of doing it this way.

    For instance, how in the world would you convert a site like vbulletin.org forums over to bp groups?

    Even with very fancy templating it would still not work properly

    (Yes, I know, groups are really just uber powerful forum categories… for a lack of a better way of putting it)
