Hi Spence. Ok just to be clear are you saying that if I have made no other alterations to the style.css file then if I add the code below to that file it should make it wide? Sorry I am a novice with WordPress and im just trying to figure out why this is not working. Thanks so much for your help;
/* bbPress Sitewide Forums – Optional – Make full width */
body.bbPress #sidebar {display:none;}
body.bbPress #main {width:100%;}
.bbp-forums {
width: 100%;
}
It won’t have it im afraid. Does the WordPress theme always take prescedent over the bbpress theme? If so am I wasting my time modifing the bbpress css? What is the optimal way to have this structured?
Thanks again for your help.
Hi Spence,
Thanks very much for your post. The video really helped. I still have one question though which is about the part where you modify the forums to default to full width.
1. What CSS editor are you using?
2. I installed a CSS editor plugin and when I insert the code you used I am getting the message
“Your active theme does not include bbPress template files. Your forums are using the default styling included with bbPress.”
How can I fix this so it does what I want?
