bbPress.org

hey guys,

I have an external Frontpage, which is located under domain.at
My Blog is located under the domain.at/blog.
Now I want that the bbpress forum is located under domain.at/forum instead of domain.at/blog/…

What is the best way to reach this goal? Is it necessary to do this with .htaccess or is there an easier way?

I think it might be also possible to make the frontpage a custom page template in wordpress, and create a page post type based on it. Then I could make domain.at the site-root with my custom frontpage and user /blog and /forum.

Is there an other / better way?

Thanks!
