Changing the header for the forums

Hi…

I’ve added bbpress forums to my WordPress account without any problems, but I want to use a different image header for the forums than for the rest of the site. In which file does bbpress pull the header from my site, and is it simply possible just to plug in a different image into the code instead of it finding my regular header?

Forums are at http://ovcball.net/forums/

Thanks!

Do you mean the header with the words: “OVC BALL-NEWS AND ANALYSIS”?

None of the bbPress file pull the header from your site. They’re just using the templates in your theme, so it’s more correct to say that your theme template (header.php) is pulling the header. So there’s no easy solution for this unless you know how to modify & add the theme template files to output a function that showing different header when bbPress is present.

Thanks for the response. After I posted this, I actually thought about it and changed my header to a image map, essentially making it a double header, which works great for the time being.
