Hello,
Wordpress version 6.5.4
bbpress version 2.6.9
buildingbetterleaders.blog

I’m using Bluehost as provider and blog theme called Version 3 (labeled as version 1.0.0 and called a child theme of YITH Wonder).

I’m very new to WordPress, brand new to bbpress, and brand new to bluehost. I followed the directions to install bbpress, create a forum, and create a topic. I see those in my dashboard. My root slug is set to ‘forums’ and the permalink is setting is ‘postname.’

Nothing appears at https://buildingbetterleaders.blog/forums/

I appreciate any help! I’ve searched through the forums. Most people are getting their forum to appear. I couldn’t find a topic like this one.

Looking at your site, I think you are using one of the new block or FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.

install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, you will find instructions on how to set up

Amazing, Robin! Thank you so much.
I’m working on a University Thesis project and we have to set up a blog with forum. I’ve spent way more time doing tech stuff than writing content. But I’m good to go now!

Thanks again!
PJ
