How to add description over forum list on bbpress root page
One possibility would be to hook into the bbp_template_before_forums_index like this: add_action( ‘bbp_template_before_forums_index’, ‘wpse118937_bbpress_forum_list_desc’); function wpse118937_bbpress_forum_list_desc() { //add your description code here } This will be displayed after the breadcrumbs and before the list.

Archive-custome_post.php template not working
Your pre_get_posts filter is incorrect. You are altering more queries than I think you think you are. The “main” query isn’t just the primary index. You are adding (or attempting to add) all of those post types to every page, basically,– the author archives, the categories, everything. Try this: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘add_my_post_types_to_query’ ); function add_my_post_types_to_query( … Read more
Including template pages within another template?
The function get_page() has been deprecated, don’t use it anymore, use get_post() instead. get_page_by_title() returns an object by default, you can change this by altering the $output parameter, which you can use like you did.

Query the database after get_header() has been included

The basic rule is: if you need to modify the default query, use pre_get_post If you need to display another list of results than the one linked to your template url, use get_posts.

Theme settings Page: Settings Api vs Update_Options
You are not wrong about conceptual limitation, but any development convention is inherently about constraints. Constraints are “bad”, but they are also often good and important. In this specific case it’s slightly soured by Settings API being especially nasty snowflake, which historically led people to reinvent this particular wheel a lot. However, your estimate of … Read more
Template_redirect for child custom post types
All sorted. For any one interested, I simply added in a function (into functions.php) that redirected to my new template dependent on the name of the post (you could also use the ID). add_filter(‘template_include’, ‘new_template’); function new_template($template){ global $post; if($post->post_name == ‘mortgage’){ $template = get_template_directory() . ‘/mortgage-template.php’; } return $template; }
