I am trying to create a custom theme for the bbPress Plugin (v 2.0-beta-2b) using the steps outlined in the Theme Compatibility Post (http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-theme-compatibility).

The original WordPress theme was created by me so I am following the steps in method #2 in the Theme Compatibility post. I copied all the files in the plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten into the root of my theme (themes/[my-theme]). I made sure to include the single- archive- and page- files.

I also added theme support to the functions.php file in my theme folder:

add_theme_support( ‘bbpress’ );

However, on the forums main page (/forums), I see the main forum index multiple times. It looks like each forum I have created is being shown as a post and under each post the forum index is being shown.

Am I missing a crucial step in getting the custom bbPress theme setup?

Thanks for your help.

Can you link me to your site so I can see what’s happening?

Not sure if this will work, but here is a link to a screenshot of the main page:

Link no worky. Might be private?

Hmm..sorry about that. Not sure what is going on.

Here is the link again: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10149333/bbpress-template-help.jpg

If that doesn’t work, you can try to grab the screenshot here:

It is really hard to troubleshoot the problem with a link to the site itself. Need to read the code output to see what is happening

@cib – Some fixes in Beta 3 might fix that issue for you. Will be available tomorrow morning.

[@clb Member 14 years, 4 months ago]

@JJJ – Thanks. I will look for the update this morning and see if that fixes things.

@JJJ – Will the plugin update be available via the WP plugin panel? Just want to make sure I am looking in the correct place.
