Hi –

(For our forums here – http://www.zetaunit.com/forums/ – W.P. V 4.5.3, using Avada 4.02)

I see in the documentation that it is possible to replace the default bbpress wordpress template for

the Forum Root Slug ‘Forums’

by adding a page in WordPress called /forums/

and then inserting the bbpress shortcode for forum archives.

I tried this also with ‘forum’ for individual forums, and I see other Slugs available in Settings > Forum

Single Forum Slugs

Custom slugs for single forums, topics, replies, tags, views, and search.

Forum
Topic
Topic Tag
Topic View
Reply
Search

Am I missing something, or is there a simple way to replace each of the pages used by bbpress by default, just by creating pages named e.g. ‘topic’, ‘topic-view’ etc? And then insert the relevant shortcode for that content?

It seems like ‘it should be there’ but can’t find documentation apart from customising my child theme etc.

Thanks in advance 🙂

I am trying to get bbPress to work with a theme that doesn’t have support for/within bbPress, and can fake it using custom Admin-created pages and shortcodes, and would also like to know this.

This sounds like what I’m trying to do. Do you figure this out?
