Hi All,

I’m having some trouble getting my forum pages to be full width. If I use the shortcode to embed a forum and set my page template to “Full Width”, it works fine. But then if you click another forum topic it goes back to what looks like half width. I have tried copying my full-width.php (twenty fourteen) and calling it bbpress.php and forum.php, but it seems to have no impact. I have also tried adding some CSS, but also seemed to have no impact:

.bbpress-forums .col-2cl .main {
background: none repeat-y right 0;
padding-right: 0px;
}

I’m kind of at a loss as to why the forum pages are still not full width, so would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks,

@bsilverop i just checked and i dont see it

and your suppose to lose the right sidebar only, the left one stays and it moves toward the footer on smaller screens.

This is how it looks for me. You’re right, the left sidebar moves to the bottom if the screen is too small, but currently I see this:

@bsilverop

remove the !important from

@media screen and (min-width: 1008px) {
 .bbpress .site-content {
	margin-right: 0 !important;
	margin-left: 182px !important;
}
}

there should be some space to the right, I will try to figure out that too, but tell me if removing the !important fixes the forums hiding under the left sidebar.

@media screen and (min-width: 1218px) {
.bbpress .site-content .entry-content {
    margin-right: 0px;
}
}

this should remove that space on the right of the forums

Thanks @robkk. This is looking good to me after making the changes. I tested on a few different screens here with different sizes and seems to be working well. I’m not sure why the @media screen commands weren’t working before, but suspect it had something to do with the order. This is what I ended up with for those looking to do something similar in the future.

Robin has donate links here.

I can set up a wordpress.com account tomorrow with some paypal donate button if you really feel like donating to me.

other ways of contributing i guess are helping out in the forums the best you can with other users, or the bbPress project itself.
