I just installed bbPress so am new to this. The main forums page at http://brigade.org.c11.previewyoursite.com/forums displays the incorrect sidebar – if you click on one of the forums you can see the correct sidebar, which I applied in the set up of the individual forum page. How can I edit the page http://brigade.org.c11.previewyoursite.com/forums?
Wordpress 4.5.2
bbPress 2.5.9

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hi,

The /forums page is probably the standard generated one.
Just create a standard WordPress page in your /wp-admin and give it the /forums slug.
This page will overwrite the generated one.

That did not work. I still have the wrong widget showing up. The added page is displaying – I know because I added some text to test it, and even though I change the sidebar to the one I want the incorrect one is still showing up. I even tried to remove it and make the page full width and that did not work – the wrong sidebar is still there. Sure hope someone can help me solve this.

Thanks
Sue

Just found the same is true on the topic page.

Found out the problem – the forum was defaulting to “sidebar 1” so I set that up in the correct format and now it appears correctly. I could not find anyway to override this defaulting to that sidebar. Interested to know if others have seen this problem.
