Create a database on your website. You do not create any tables.
Download bbPress.
Open the file bb-config-sample.php
Complete lines 3,4,5,6 with your information. (If you are unsure about any of these, looking at some of the WordPress installation walkthroughs may be useful).
Line 11 is your website domain
Line 12 is the sub-directory – Note the slashes !
And Line 13 – let’s have a name.
Save the file as bb-config.php The other information can be altered later.
Upload the config file you just made to your website.
In your browser, go to http://www.example.com/your-forum/bb-admin/upgrade-schema.php
You will see a very brief message saying tables have been created.If you do not, your config information is incorrect
Now Register

Question about step 1.
You say that the user has to be created on the “bbPress” side. Does this refer to a user that is registered through register.php via the forums? What if my forums were integrated from day 1 with WordPress? Is it okay to just use the “admin” keymaster account?
Question about permalinks and .htaccess.
I am using pretty permalinks on the bbPress side, and there is an .htaccess file on the root of the bbpress install folder. What would I want to look out for to prevent this from causing a problem?
Question about “deep integration”
I am currently including my wp-blog-header.php file inside my bb-config.php file. Will this cause conflicts?
Question about what to do if I swear I’ve followed the steps the way they are written and the ways everyone else has said, and it isn’t working.
Reg users is initally coming up wrong like this :

I am using timezone UTC +11 & custom date formatting l jS F Y – eg. Thursday 19th February 2009 & Time : 11:16 am
My server time is always UTC and have had prob in normal wordpress with some plugins/scripts failing to adjust for timezone
I posted this message about week ago, and the thread was closed without asking me:
I have been consistently having issues with the Recent Blogs Widget. It will work fine for days, then the list of Recently Updated blogs go missing from my blogs and when I check out the widget page for these blogs, this is what I see:
`%BEG_OF_TITLE%Recent Blog Posts%END_OF_TITLE% ‘
I delete the file bp-blogs.php file from the mu-plugins folder and the error message vanishes. Sometimes an hour later, sometimes a day later, I can upload bp-blogs.php and all is well again.
And when it errors out on one blog, it errors on on ALL blogs using it.
I am running it on primepress theme, WPMu 2.7 and BuddyPress RC-1.
I’ve been having this problem for weeks, previous attempts to get some help for this proved fruitless.
The problem vanished right after I posted this.
So the entry was closed.
This is a intermittent and recurring problem. It comes and goes. I have no explanation why. When it happens, ever single blog using the plug in shows the error message mentioned above.
I’m going to solve the problem mentioned above by simply giving up on Buddy Press. It showed potential. But the it was impossible to work with because:
1. Requests for help are often ignored.
2. It is impossible to ask for help because the the requests CANNOT BE POSTED ON THE MALFUNCTIONING MESSAGE BOARD.
I mean, seriously? Automattic OWNS bbPress. How does it work out that they fix their own product? I understand what Beta version means, but I cannot understand why Automattic cannot fix a malfunctioning bbPress forum that they own.
I’ll come back when there’s a final version.
If this message will not post here, I’ll post in on mu.wordpress.org.
And I full expect the routine lecture about how this is open source, run by volunteers, etc.
Topic: wierd bugs
Whenever someone does an action with buddypress say for example viewing a random blog it first shows a 404 error *THEN* redirects appropriately.
It’s as if it’s loading some file that doesnt exist then redirecting.
check it out at http://webcomicplanet.com/
also in bp-groups-widge.php around line 60 you need to clear the floats there
</span></div>
</div>
<div class=”clear”></div>
also, avatar’s cannot be uploaded on registration BUT works in the members pages so i’m trying to disable the fact it’s asking for the upload of the avatar on the wp-signup page so any help in removing that action would be nice from the wp-signup
in the pages for the plugin-templet you can’t use the #content as a #page and keep it compatible with the pages that wpmu dishs out
<div id=”content” class=”widecolumn”>
^ is NOT compatible because you’re using it as a column not the #page, while WPMU dishes it out as #page div for the registration your using it as a column inside another area with a sidebar
since most if not all wordpress themes that use #content as a “page area” and not a “column of content” it would probably be best if you changed that div name to something other then #content
Try to add borders to #content border left and right and then look at how the wp-signup.php page comes up and your members and groups pages and you will see what I mean by that.

but mainly, very curious as to why 404 pages keep getting dished out, it’s like i’m missing a file in my custom theme.
Topic: Adding links to admin bar
Feel a bit silly asking this, because I am a proper newbie with wordpress MU and buddypress.
I want to admin some hard links to the admin bar, how would I add an ‘Example’ (example.com) button to the bar? Would I keep having to update something in bp-core-adminbar.php with every upgrade?
Thanks!
as i said, i made that same think you’v planned to do
not using wires but integrating buddypress membertheme with wordpress loops
Topic: Something I did wrong?
Hi all.
I just installed and tested WordPress MU, all was working fine.
Downloaded the BP package, followed all the installation instructions. Everything seemed to working fine.
Got a error when clicking on a member to view the profile:
http://bourne-studio.com/members/admin/
I moved the themes to the locations mentioned in the ‘read me’ files within the themes folder.
Can anyone tell me what I did wrong and also what needs to be done to solve this issue.
Thanx

Installed and working. Yay!
Since I converted my db from a wordpress.org install, not all of my users have converted their information, i.e. real names, etc… Is there any way to have a fall back and use the nicename in the event no real name exists? Also, if there is no avatar uploaded, it doesn’t seem to use the generated avatar for me. The idea would be to have everyone use an avatar eventually, but alas my user base can be slow to adapt…
Do you have a way to do the user names in forum.php, functions that are usually topic_last_poster() and $topic->topic_poster_name? I suppose if the user->ID of those people is within $topic then it’s pretty straight forward eh…
No worries, it’s always better to ask and learn than to be silent and stay uneducated.
And yes, you need to look at a members profile in order to see the BuddyPress member theme.
The individual blogs are not managed by BuddyPress but by WordPress MU and because of that the themes are standard WordPress themes.
hi, i’ve a problem with the group membership request.
when a user send a membership request the admin of the group receive an email with the link to accept/reject the member…
when i click on the link to accept/reject the user i receive a “WordPress failure notice” with the message “Are you sure you want to do this?” and no more. the only way is close the browser window.
i’ve tested it with wpmu 2.7 and bp rc-1… how i resolve this? thanks.
