jloosli,
I just spent the bulk of my morning trying to figure this out and finally came up with a solution that involves creating a child theme to my current theme (not necessarily a requirement to do it this way, but I wanted to keep the BBPress files organized and separate from the rest of my theme).
In the child theme I copied over all of the BBPress template files the ship with the plugin and then updated my site to run from the Child Theme. This allows the appropriate template files to be picked up and the forum snapped back to life.
You could also just copy in the necessary template files to the root of your theme, a bit messier, but that’d work as well. Anyway….I’m finally getting back to work on the thing (cleaning up all of the default templates) now after a 4-5 hour detour.
Oh…and you’ll need to enable theme support for ‘bbpress’ too in your functions file if you go my route (either child theme or using your ‘main’ theme):
// Add bbPress theme support
add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ );
Wish I knew why it worked before and suddenly stopped, that still has me stumped…but at least I understand the structure of how this all goes together now:
BTW, if you haven’t already seen it, this helped a ton:

Hope you get further down the road too!
In reply to: Theme malfunctionI’m in a similar boat here…have a multisite install, installed bbpress plugin (2.0.2) and all worked fine for awhile, I changed gears to polish up the first phase of the project and now, the forum appears half-baked. The main forum page (/forums) shows the list of test forums, but each forum link appears to just use the page.php template…the install seems to have lost the bbpress templating. Seems like I’ve seen similar issues discussed here on the bbpress forum before…but no solution presented. Can anyone help? thx!
In reply to: Forum pages not loadingI’m having the very same issues that jloosi describes….has anyone seen this before. Forum installed great with bbpress plugin…got on to other higher priority tasks, then came back to work on the Forum more and poof…gone….the main forum list is there, but each forum just shows a description, none of the assigned topics appear, going straight to a topic does the same thing. Very wierd…..I tried uninstalling, (not removing from the DB…yet). Anyone with any thoughts?
