How to install bbPress with block-based themes.

If you use bbPress in a block-based theme like Twenty Twenty Four, the screen will become completely white. As a temporary solution, it seems that you can fix it by installing and configuring the bbp style pack.

The setting method is below.

1. Install and activate bbp style pack.
2. Go to Theme Support tab, turn on Enable advanced FSE theme support and save.
3. Create a dummy page
4. Create a new page at Dashboard > Pages > Add new. You can give this page a title of your choice. It is not possible to have a slug set in Forums, Forums, Topics, Replies, or Dashboard > Settings > Forums > Slug.

4.1. Enter data on the page
This page can be designed to contain any content, but requires one block, which is a shortcode block. That block is,

[bbp-forum-index]

shortcode.

4.2. Forum pattern
There are two patterns available that allow you to easily add left and right sidebars.

Add a block by clicking + on a page’s block
Select a pattern (middle of Blocks | Patterns | Media)
Select “bbp Style Pack Forum Pattern”
Choose left or right sidebar version
Once added, you can easily change the widgets to display, the displayed content, and change the column width.

5. For more information about the block widgets available within the Style Pack plugin, see the Block Widgets tab.

6. Configure advanced theme support and configure template pages
In the settings above, click the “Enable advanced FSE theme support” selection.
With the above settings, set “bbPress template page for advanced FSE theme support” to the page set in 3. above.
