You would have to create a custom template for bbPress or a bbpress.php file so that all your forum pages use this.

i guess if your slider is using a shortcode you can echo the shortcode in the template too.

Getting Started in Modifying the Main bbPress Template

You need to show it only on pages you want, so single topics, single forums, forum archive, and topic archive. Usually I see sliders have a conditional to show on the home page only so you would to do something similar but only on bbPress pages. You can input multiple conditionals using && or | for example,

<?php if ( bbp_is_single_topic() && bbp_is_single_forum() && bbp_is_forum_archive() && bbp_is_topic_archive()) : ?>

<?php echo do_shortcode("[shortcode]"); ?>

<?php endif; ?>
