Nimva just informed me that they never intended for their theme to work with bbpress. Also, they don’t support it. Guess I’ll be hunting for a new theme.
This is the response I got from Nimva:
Your code source and current page template might be generated using BBPress templates not by Nimva page templates. Try to edit that Forums page and see if it is possible change the current page template to Default page template under Page Attributes -> Templates. See if that does anything
I think what they are asking me to do is create a page and put the forum index shortcode in it. Then they want me to try to adjust the page template to see if a sidebar shows up. This might work, but it would only work for the main index page. I don’t think this would work for every category/topic/ect.. unless I create shortcode pages for all of them.
Can you all please advise?
I’ll hit up Nimva to see how to change the default template. Since the forums aren’t pages I can select the template like I would any other page.
Robkk,
Thanks for that. It fixed the space issue. Now I have to figure out how to get a sidebar working.
I have been trying to do this by going to the page labelled “forums” that has the index shortcode in it and then adding a sidebar that I have created. I then added widgets to that sidebar. I have also tried content aware and bbpress wp tweak. I still can’t get a sidebar to show on the bbpress page. I can get it to show on any other page.
