i do have a child theme, but it didn’t even occur to me (only been into this WordPress thing for about a week).

thanks for being so responsive!

i’m not a developer by any means, but this seems to work (there’s probably a better way 🙂
in my bbpress.css file here “wp-content\plugins\bbpress\templates\default\css”
i just broke out “div.bbp-forum-content” from this:

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-content,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content {
	margin-left: 130px;
	padding: 12px 12px 12px 0;
	text-align: left;
}

to this:

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-content {
	margin-left: 0px;
	padding: 12px 12px 12px 0;
	text-align: left;
}

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content {
	margin-left: 130px;
	padding: 12px 12px 12px 0;
	text-align: left;
}

and set that left margin to 0 px rather than 130.
let me know if there’s a better or more elegant way!

Thanks Robin! That was exactly what i was looking for. Any thoughts why my Description line might be indented, rather than left justified as your example shows?

i have the same question. it seems there are many topics on this but no resolution.

i have a Page (Forums) where i put the text description for the Index List of Forums (“Here are a bunch of Forums!”) followed by the index [bbp-forum-index]. that works fine.

now, if i click a single forum (“Forum 1”) in the index list, i only get the Forum Title, but not the description i entered into the text field when i created the forum. should i be making a Page for each single forum?

i suspect there’s a conflict with a plugin. i deactivated all but bbPress, cleared my browser cache, and force-refreshed the page and still nothing.

FWIW, my plug-ins are:
bbPress
Custom Meta Widget
jonradio Private Site
NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati
Peter’s Login Redirect
TablePress
The Events Calendar
User Avatar

any know issues with these??
