I finally got bbPress installed and discovered that the answer to my question is, “NO!”

bbPress came up fine.

I did attempt to do a bit of hacking. I duplicated my theme from my wordpress blog and copied into my templates folder, hoping it would take. Though the theme came up in my Admin menu, the forum hair-balled all over the place when I tried to activate and use it!

Apparently, you need extra files in the theme folder than what is used in wordpress themes.

Bah!

Anyone have any instructions on converting a wp theme into a bbPress template?

Thanks!
