bbPress 2.5.1-5217 wp version 3.8 using bigbang theme

I’m having trouble getting the sidebar to show on the forums. You can check here

Have you got a page associated with the forum?

If not try creating a page called “forums” with a sidebar.

This should work.

If not try adding the following shortcode to that page

[bbp-forum-index]

You can also use a plugin called bbPress WP tweaks to add a specific forum sidebar
