In reply to: ForumsI have been poking around through the forums and it seems I need to create a database first, or use one that exists… Is this correct? This is where I am stuck, which is the begining http://www.vuuch.com/forum/bb-admin/install.php?step=1.
Should I use my wordpress database? and the wordpress user id? Or am i better to create a new database? I have notes about the wordpress database but what file would I be looking for? In my notes I have i wrote the the db was at a link like this http://gmpg.org/xfn/11… Does this mean it is not on my hosting account?
Thanks

In reply to: ForumsSo I have given this a try. I copied the content of the bbpress folder to my domain_name.com/forum. I then navigate to this folder and I get an install screen. I get the following error message: There doesn’t seem to be a bb-config.php file. This usually means that you want to install bbPress.
I try to go through a setup but I never get there. I am not sure what to really do. I also tried to rename the bb-config-sample.php to bb-config.php to see if the same would run but then i get another error.
Is there a link to setup instructions?

In reply to: Install questionThe other thing you might do is to see if your hosting provider has a one click install. mine did. I instlled using the godaddy app installer. this took care of a bunch of things that would have been issues. for instance my hosting account was on windows with compoents that wp did not support. the godad installer knew this and worked me through fixing it (with someone on the phone).
relative to domain and folders. my hosting account has a primary domain chrisdiannefamily and a secondary domain vuuch. the vuuch domain starts in a folder (godad takes care of redirecting when someone types in vuuch at a browser). the vuuch domain has a wp blog and chrisdiann… does not have a blog. so the wp stuff is installed in a subfloder of vuuch named wordpress.
my guess is if your primary domain is where you want blog you install wp in a subfolder of the root named whatever you want. the intaller asks you to name it. i hav a post in the forum about how to change the install location as I might change it to blog.vuuch.com…

In reply to: Install questionnot that i really know what i am doing but i also just went through this. it also depends what you are doing with the hosting account you are using. for instance on my account if have two different domains hosted. so there is a primary domain and a secondary domain and the primary gets the root. the secondary gets a new root which is a folder in the primary (this is where i have wp)…
