They are named header.php and footer.php in the Kakumei directory

Just make sure you’re looking at the default Kakumei directory and not, for example, the alternate blue one.

I would recommend starting all over again. Delete your current bbpress directory (I’m assuming this was your first time installing it) and re-upload a fresh new one. Once all of your files are uploaded navigate to that page with your browser. Depending on the name of your bbpress directory you should try to open something like this:

http://www.youwebsitename.com/bbpress

It’ll take you to the introduction page with step one.

Immelody, just curious if you could give a quick run through of how you were able to apply (or convert) your wordpress theme to bbpress. I’ve been trying to learn how to do it, and so far what I’ve read is to copy the header and footer from wordpress to bbpress. Problem is I’m not that great at programming so it’s a bunch of guess work. I’ve been trying to do it unsuccessfully for about 3 months now…

Sorry to bother you, but if you could help I’d really appreciate it and I’m sure it would help others as well!

Edit: I forgot to mention I have the databases integrated although I’m not sure how I managed that It’s just recreating the theme that is really stumping me.

I’m interested in hearing about the status of this plugin as well. It sounds exactly like what I’m looking for.

Ok well I figured out part of the problem and got the path set correctly. Now that it loads the formatting and tables are completely missing. Is this something that I change in the styles for WP or bbPress?
