    Hi everyone

    I’m one of those novice newbies i’m afraid.
    Trying to create a simple forum site.
    Have selected great theme – Spun
    Using bbPress as forum plugin.
    When I redirect the permalink for post selected to contain the forum I get this view: but when I use the shortcode for the forum index it displays just as I’d like Though this isn’t navigable.

    It looks to me like it’s trying to fit the forum in one column. Could anyone tell me what code I’d need to create what I see using the shortcode on the /forums page so it’s usable? Or is there a way of running the forums using the shortcodes?

    Many thanks

    New problem – the shortcoded post IS now navigable, but only when I’m logged in to the WordPress site. If I try and link to the site externally, I get the ‘page can’t be found’ message.

    Any help much appreciated.

    thanks.
