I created a new page, I added the shortcode, I choose the template with no sidebar on the page I created, and bbpress just ignores it completely. I also tried a suggestion in another post about adding code to the style.css but that didn’t work as I was never very good with css. The wordpress theme I am using is called point and can be found here: https://wordpress.org/themes/point/

If anyone could perhaps nudge me in the correct direction I would appreciate it, thanks.

Download this bbpress.php file and put it into a child theme and you would get full width forums.

works, thankyou so much man. You’re the best!

I am having the same problem. Will something like this work for the iFeaturepro% theme or is it specific to ‘point’?

@meriadoc84

It is specific to Point.

It would require a similar process to create the file/and the code in the file though.

I am sort of following this guide.

Getting Started in Modifying the Main bbPress Template

[meriadoc84]

I tried the code anyway and it worked after I realised that the bbpress forum pages were linking to the primary theme (iFeaturepro5) rather than the child version I have created. I really don’t understand that at all because the Child theme was the one activated at the time. The main thing is the side bar has gone.
Anyway, thanks for the help. A final touch would be to be able to reduce the size across the screen a little. Is it possible to change from full width to a percentage; say 80%?
