   Is it possible to add a sidebar in a theme that comes without one? Need a sidebar for navigation and/or ads. I am using the "Structure" theme. If it can be added can I get the code for it probably going into the sidebar.php?
   Thank you.

   Where do I find the sidebar.php file/code for bbPress and the includes?
   Thank you.

   There is no sidebar.php in bbPress. You need to create that PHP file and then include it.

   Can I get help with that? Can I get the code for the sidebar.php file in bbPress and anything else that goes with it? Will the WP sidebar code work?
   Thanks.

   WordPress sidebar code will not work straight away.

   You can find themes that use sidebars here and maybe find something you can copy from:

   Or, you can find professional help with programming for bbPress here:

   Or, anyone familiar with modifying WordPress should be able to help as well since they're very similar.
