Hey all, i run this site, and im determined that it should all be ran by wordpress, its all going great etc. But, as soon as i installed my forum, i see that it uses this ugly style, with background color etc.

What id really like is no shadow on the text, no background, small border around the different forums and thats pretty much it.

Heres before: http://puu.sh/32WkF.png

I hope you understand my problem :/
Ive read this http://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/ but i cant seem to find the necessary files.

I hope you can help me out 🙂

First of all you should go to this location:

wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / default / css / bbpress.css

Copy-/Paste the bbpress.css file into your Theme’s folder.

Like so:

wp-content / themes / [ your-theme-name ] / css / bbpress.css

When there is none css folder inside you theme folder just create one.
What you’ve done right now is created you’re own custom stylesheet for bbPress that can’t be overwritten by software updates.

What styles you have to change I can’t tell from looking at your picture, but it’s pretty easy to find them.
Make sure you have a Webkit browser installed on your computer ( Google Chrome is reallt the best for this ). View your website and right-mouse-click on the element you would like to change and pick the option ” Inspect Element ” ( I think it’s called )

Now you have at the bottom all the style , there’s also a location + line number where to find the elements inside your bbpress.css file.

Look at this video for some instructions.

It’s not that difficult.
