Hello!
The process is very easy for advanced, and fix things is a joke, but it is true that this to be, it is needed that you know phpBB and WP how they works, and several more things. This the reason of long help explains, that by the way aren't still complete, and may are in bad eng.
But can be executed by anyone with easy.
I will add some of these points to avoid further problems to people, in the help install steps.
Server error 500 mean many things, you should look server errors log file to check what was going wrong. By the way this is a strange behavior, may i assume due to the below (follow read).
Straight to the point, the (secure) procedure resumed:
on plugin page, setup the name for the wp page that will embed phpBB iframed.
so if you call it forum, into your active wp template folder you'll have file:
page-forum.php
itf it isn't after you done the step on plugin page, read inline helps on plugin option, and copy/paste manually it into your template folder.
You need to create same BLANK page in WP, named the same, without adding on it nothing as body, just title and save.
NOTE: the permalink of this page, need to result THE SAME, so change it to be forum (if you used forum)
This is normally setup in this way if chosen Post name as permalink structure into
WP admin -> Settings -> permalinks
This is very important. Change manually the permalink to be the same as you created the name of the WP page.
BEFORE to apply the overall_header.html
js code, test things, so you'll be not forced/redirected to iframe, if you access phpBB as direct URL,
leave recompile setting ON until you not finished, so you can change it as you like any moment.
Error 500 is strange, you may was forced/redirected to wp, and the setting of the page was not as above?
Let know
P.S online steps help about this, has been updated.
