I’m new to wordpress and bbpress.

I’m trying to build up my company site with wordpress and I need to have two different forums with different templates.

So I installed bbpress and I created two different pages in wordpress and in each page I used shortcode “[bbp-single-forum id=$post_id]” to create a single forum page.

Each single forum page should use different template or theme, but I couldn’t find any way to use different templates for different forums simultaneously.

Does anyone know if this is possible to do with bbpress?

Thanks in advance.

Different template design is possible with bbPress standalone (v1.1) solution, NOT sure for bbPress as plugin.

Yeah you can do a lot.

Use the WP Template Name function.

Create your own template files and build your own (bbPres) code inside them or leave them very default and use the Short Tags you’re using with ID’s right now.

If you can select the bbPress templates when adding a new page you can also make your own page templates.

Just select new page and pick a template from the right-side (template)
