I need help performing a basic function. I have a WordPress blog with bbPress installed as a plugin. I would like all of my forums pages (ever) to show up on a custom two-column WordPress page template that I made (template-twocolumn.php) rather than the default three-column template for my site’s theme. I can put a forums shortcode on a WordPress page with a custom template, but the forums will still really just be using the three-column template, and it will show when I click any links to a new forums page. Can someone please help me make it so that the entirety of bbPress uses one particular non-default template page style?

I have WordPress 3.2.1 and bbPress 2.0. My website is at http://www.vgreboot.com/ . Thanks.

Rename your template-twocolumn.php to ‘bbpress.php’ and you’re all set.

Well, renaming and then moving or not moving the template.php sure didn’t help. See?/: http://www.vgreboot.com/forum-slug/welcome-to-vg-reboot

I made a template that has only one sidebar for the forums, rather than two. The page there uses the default template.

I solved this. Had nothing to do with bbPress, but instead, had to do it via my WordPress theme. Thanks anyway.
