Removing columns on Forum Pages

Hi,

I have installed bbpress on my wordpress site:

http://www.sithinquisitors.com/sith-inquisitor-forums/

The problem I have is that my sites theme has 3 columns meaning the forum is squashed, I was wondering if there was a way to stop the 2 columns on the right (that contain showing whilst viewing the forum.

Thanks in advance.

Hi again

I have remedied a part of this by making a new page template for the page that shows bbpress.

http://www.sithinquisitors.com/sith-inquisitor-forums/

My problem now is that all other pages apart from the forum main page wont use the template page I have made and revert back to the three column default template of the site. Such as http://www.sithinquisitors.com/old-republic-forum/class-discussion/

Is there something that I am missing to get this to work? thanks!

I run a combination of bbPress & Buddypress and this worked for me, I did put the following code in functions.php:

function disable_all_widgets( $sidebars_widgets ) { if (is_bbpress()) { $sidebars_widgets = array(false); remove_all_actions('bp_register_widgets'); unregister_sidebar( 'bp_core_widgets' ); } return $sidebars_widgets;
}

add_filter( ‘sidebars_widgets’, ‘disable_all_widgets’, 1, 1);

This removed all widgets aside from the user login, but that’s quite handy to be present at the forum pages. I put that on top of the forums with CSS.
