[Solved] Putting a Forum Inside Your WordPress Theme

[silvers]

Hiya guys,

Ok… so i have installed a phpbb forum on my site. that’s fine. but it’s the ugly standard theme and i want it to look like the rest of my site. obviously Css-Tricks does the exact same thing. it’s basically the phpbb forum inside Chris’ theme…

how the hell do i do that?

i have been going deep in to it and it seems that if i download automod, and then i install wp-unite mod then i have the opportunity to do it. i have spent the whole day getting lost inside forum pages and tutorials but i can’t see the light yet.

i just wondered if this was the way to go? or is there a simpler way? i don’t mind if i have to do it like this, i just need someone to tell me that i am heading in the right direction.

if someone that has some knowledge on this could give me a push in anyway i would be really really grateful.

thanks in advance (and sorry for the long-winded question!)

I’m pretty sure Chris did a video tutorial on this. Perhaps if you give http://css-tricks.com/video-screencasts/ a search…
