How to make forums look better/prettier

Hi folks,

The forums on my site don’t stand out. They typeface, borders and just general appearance is dull, it’s not bold enough.

Is there perhaps a plugin that would smarten up the appearance of forums?

I can’t find one or another solution.

My forums are here: http://www.whichinvestmenttrust.com/better-investor-forums

I’m using the latest version of everything WordPress/BBPress/Buddypress.

Thanks

I’d start by reviewing the layout and functionality

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

the look at

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

to get some widgets in your sidebars

then

bbPress Styling Crib

to get some styling.

Thanks for this post, But I think for

6. Load the style sheet after bbpress

The correct way is this:
```
/**
 * load custom bbpress css after bbp default css
 */
wp_enqueue_style( 'custom-bbpress', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/css/custom-bbpress.css',array('bbp-default'),'1.1','all');
```
