    I spoke too soon lol….
    the format I would get is Home>forums>forumsTest
    the Forumstest I created would have no sidebars, as soon as I click on Forums or any of the post the sidebars would return

    I have no idea what’s going on, I think my theme doesn’t support bbpress. I removed [<?php get_sidebar(); ?>] from all the file I copied from the EXTRAS folder but the side bar is still there. I switched to twenty eleven them and the forum page seems to work properly without the side bar. And I haven’t copy any file from bbpress and extras folder.
    Shmoo, do you know a way to get around this?

    EDIT: OMG, I’m so stupid…it’s so simple. All I need to do was create a new page, Select Content Layout as NO SIDEBARS, then select template bbpress forum…

    I still need more experiment before I can transfer to my website. 🙂

    I tried your advice and edit out [<?php get_sidebar(); ?>] from achive-forum.php but side bar is still there.
    I installed Microsoft WebMatrix and starting my own local website. I’ll see what I can do with it 🙂
    Thanks for the advice and hopefully I can figure this out soon.

    Thanks Shmoo for all the help. Unfortunately I don’t know which file to copy so to be safe I’ll copy everything to my child theme.
    I’m also trying to remove my main theme’s sidebar for my forum with no success. I’ve read other post and this seems to work:

    body.bbPress #sidebar {display:none;}
    body.bbPress .post {width:100%;}

    I put those on both my bbpress.css and the style.css but it doesn’t seem to work.

    This is my website: http://ps4evolution.com/forums/

    Thanks for reply, I didn’t know you replied because I didn’t receive any email.
    lets say I don’t want to use a child theme.
    1. create bbpress folder on my theme folder.
    2. copy all files from [wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/defaults/bbpress/All those files are bbPress (forum)] to my created bbpress folder
    3. copy all files from [wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / defaults / extras / All those files are general Theme] to my /wp-content/theme/mytheme directory.

    I wasn’t sure if i need to copy all or just what I need. Also you have bbpress.css and forum.css files…are these also included in bbpress package?

    so when i type http://www.mytheme.com/forums the new template should appear?
