Anyone? – surely the answer to getting access must be simple (just slightly ahead of me)

Ok, so newbie here who knows html and understands coding but is really keen to not screw up the site that someone else has built for me (so apologies if the answer is above and I’m not seeing it).

The site is http://www.heavenlyz.com and, I think, I’m using the “Nollie” theme.

I’ve installed bbpress, created a couple of forums and – via the great info on this thread – created a page called “Boardroom”, into which I’ve inserted the “[bbp-forum-index]” shortcode. Hey presto, after much head scratching, I can now see a forum index on http://www.heavenlyz.com/boardroom/…woohoo 🙂

But, my next challenge is to be able to open one of the forums shown. Am struggling with this.

Because I am using the Nollie theme – I think – the parent/ child argument doesn’t apply, so am looking at changing the root page.php

Above, Lab says

Next, change the entry div as shown, to modify the current conditional check to ALSO see if you are on a bbPress page. Without this extra bit, it assumes that you want the page to show the_excerpt() on every page other than single.php …. not true. We want full content on bbPress pages as well

But my page.php says…

ID, ‘mfn-post-layout’, true) ) {
case ‘left-sidebar’:
$class = ‘ with_aside aside_left’;
break;
case ‘right-sidebar’:
$class = ‘ with_aside aside_right’;
break;
default:
$class = ”;
break;
}
?>

<div id="Content" class="subpage”>

<?php
if( $class ) echo '’;

while ( have_posts() )
{
the_post();
get_template_part( ‘includes/content’, ‘page’ );
}

if( $class ) echo ”;
?>

Where’s the “entry div”? Apologies if this is a laughably stupid question.

All help appreciated. N.b. As I’m learning, to start with, I’d rather keep the changes simple and effective rather than complex and golden.
