* bbPress comes with a robust theme-compatibility API that does its best to make bbPress look and feel right with just-about any WordPress theme. You may need to adjust some styling on your own to make everything look pristine.
|
|
* You may want to customize the register/activation/sign-in/lost-password flows, to better suit your site. bbPress comes with a bevy of shortcodes to make this possible, listed here: https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
|
|
* bbPress also comes with built-in support for Akismet and BuddyPress, two very popular and very powerful WordPress plugins. If you're using either, visit your Forum Settings page and ensure that integration appears correct.
