Kadence bbPress Design / Support Forums

Forums built on bbPress often look different from the rest of a site. This plugin ties the two together. It connects bbPress with the Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks, so forum pages can share the same layouts, headers, footers and sidebars as your other pages. You adjust the design in the Gutenberg editor instead of editing code.

It suits site owners, developers and community managers who run a product support area, a membership site or a customer helpdesk on Kadence. Global styling controls keep colors, fonts and spacing consistent. The forums are responsive for mobile screens and follow accessibility practices, so visitors can read and post on any device.
