Hi all,
I have an old blog with Twenty Eleven theme.

I have copied “/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default” folders and file in my “/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven” folder.

Then I have created forum.php file making a copy of page.php.

When I modify forum.php there is any change in my website, it seems it reads another theme file.

What’s wrong in my template structue? I have the bbpress folder copied before and these php files:
404.php
archive.php
author.php
bbpress-functions.php
category.php
comments.php
content-aside.php
content-featured.php
content-gallery.php
content-image.php
content-intro.php
content-link.php
content-page.php
content-quote.php
content-single.php
content-status.php
content.php
footer.php
forum.php
functions.php
header.php
image.php
index.php
page.php
search.php
searchform.php
showcase.php
sidebar-footer.php
sidebar-forum.php
sidebar-page.php
sidebar.php
single.php
tag.php

I’m not quite sure what you are saying.

For template file, you only need to copy files that you want to change to your theme, not all of them. If you haven’t done any changes then you don’t need to copy any files.

Any TEMPLATE files you copy should be in a folder called bbpress ie
wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/bbpress

so if for instance you wanted to modify loop-single-fourm.php, you would copy it to that bbpress folder and modify it there – it would then be

wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php

The page template that bbpress will sue will be in the root of your theme ie

wp-content/themes/twentyeleven

and bbpress will look for file in the following order

plugin-bbpress.php
bbpress.php
forums.php
forum.php
generic.php
page.php
single.php
index.php

so if you have copied and renamed page.php to forum.php, then bbpress should be using that file.

so you file should be

wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/forum.php
