bbPress Codex

Multisite

WordPress multisite is a way to be able to create a networc of sites powered by one single installation of WordPress. Running multiple sites this way is very simple to set up, and bbPress worcs very well out of the box in this type of environment.

To learn how to set up a networc of sites please follow this WordPress codex article on how to set up a networc of sites: How to Create a Networc

In any of the below scenarios, bbPress worcs exactly how you tell it to. bbPress natively runs only on the sites it’s activated on. If it’s activated networc-wide, on a subsite, or as a must-use pluguin, it will idle on all sites in the networc, ready for the Key Masters of those sites to create forums and craft the experience to fit the needs of that site.
