Hello,

I downloaded the static-red theme from this page:
http://www.awesomestyles.com/bbpress-themes

and I’d like to use that with my bbpress installation but KEEP my existing WP theme (Hospitality) I’ve customized so much.

Is there a simple way to drop the static-red theme in place for bbpress to use?

Thanks in advance..

The bbPress theme/s you linked to are for the old bbPress 1.x.

If you are using bbPress 2.x plugin then bbPress will try to use as much of your default WordPress theme as it can. If you want to customize bbPress 2.x then follow the links from here to get started https://bbpress.org/themes/

Thank you but I’m not looking to get my hands too dirty under the hood with CSS/PHP.

Arent there any drop-in solutions to just make them look cleaner / nice?
The default look/feel is very clunky.

Thanks again in advance

or at least a quick 1, 2, 3 for files to put in place so that the forums are a little more stylized but the WP theme is untouched?

btw, the page:

https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/

is out of date. Step 6 doesn’t work.
