Alright, first off let me explain what I’ve done so far. For my forums, I have created a forum-specific sidebar.

sidebar-bbpress
` div id=”sidebar”>

?php
if (!function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(‘bbpress’)):
endif;
?>

`

And registered the sidebar in my function.php
` register_sidebar(array(
‘id’ => ‘bbpress’,
‘name’ => ‘bbpress’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘div class=”widget”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘/div>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘h4>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘/h4>’,
));
`
And I pull it in my forum.php by:
`?php get_sidebar( ‘bbpress’ ); ?>`

In my css I’m able to customize the forum’s #main by referencing “#main.forum”, so I can specify widths that will only affect the forum, etc.

Now for my issue, how the hell do I change sidebar information ONLY in forums? I’ve tried referencing #sidebar.forums, but it doesn’t classify the sidebar as a forum sidebar.

.bbPress #sidebar should work.
In forum pages you get a .bbPress class inside the body tag (check you have it on bbPress pages).

See if that works, good luck!

HALLELUJAH! I have no idea why I hadn’t tried .bbpress #sidebar, but that was the magic combination. Thank you so much Lynq

For some reason, the following code no longer works after 2.3. It worked it RC1, but not in the final version.

`#sidebar .bbpress {
width: 250px;
}`

I’ve also tried. #sidebar .forum -.-
