Okay. I created a child theme for my custom theme, and copied all the .php files for bbpress into a new folder titled “bbpress” into the child theme folder.
Check.
Okay, but I thought in order to remove the sidebar from your forum (i.e.: a full-page forum) you need to be working in “themes” not “templates.”
Let me be more to the point. I have a website with a custom WP theme, (http://www.gamehounds.net/).
I want to intgrate bbPress forums under the tab “Forum.” I want the bbPress forums to be full-screen without the sidebars, but of course I want to keep the sidebar in the rest of my site.
After a LOT of reading… including your wonderful thread that says Never Modify bbPress core files, I built a child theme and activated it.
But when I go to where says to in order to put my bbPress theme into my child-theme file, there is no “themes” folder.
I do have a “templates” folder, but it doesn’t seem to have any information for themes where it instructs to “get sidebar,” which from what I read is the thing that I want to “//”.
Does this make sense at all? Again, apologies for being kind of numbskully about this. I’m really just hacking around in the dark and learning as I go.
Oh wait. Brain fart. I found it. Sorry for the last two posts. It was kinda hidden.
No, more like I’m a moron.
Thanks.
Additionally, inside:
wp-content/themes/myActiveTheme/… There is no “bbpress” file. So I’m not really sure where bbpress is pulling it’s theme from. If I did, I could copy that theme and drop it into the myActiveTheme file. But until I figure out where it’s getting its information, I’m kinda stuck digging around.
That’s the thing.
I go to wp-content/plugins/bbpress…
And there’s no “templates” file. So can’t really copy anything from templates as… it doesn’t exist.
