Anyone familiar with bbpress (buddypress/WP)?
 

I'm trying to find out the proper way to create a forum template page. I know that bbpress.php OR single.php will let me create a 'forum' template if added to my root theme folder, but I'd like to target it one step further to the category.

BBPress uses "pages" for the forum root, "categories" for the posts in said forum, and "comments" for the replies.

Now... page-21.php properly templates the forum root (as the "Forums" page is ID 21.

BUT thats just the root of forums page. Then we have forums in there like News, Sports, Entertainment etc.

How the fuck do I template them out, there has to be a way.



I want to do this so I can show News feeds on the news sidebar, sports on the sports etc etc. I would also be fine with using some if/else statements. (IE if forum/news/ do this, if forum/sports do this, else show standard sidebar.

Any help would be appreciated.

A bump for this.
