I am not the best with setup so i am looking for an all in one step by step for getting bro logs into splunk. I previously had the logs forwarded but the fields were not showing up. Here is my setup thus far:
Bro 2.6.4 on Ubuntu server 18.04 LTS (fresh Install based on https://wpcademy.com/how-to-install-bro-network-security-monitor-on-ubuntu-16-04-lts/ minus the geoIP stuff)
Splunk Enterprise 8.0.1 (fresh install based on https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.1/Installation/InstallonLinux)
started and created admin
configured to start on boot
I just see so many bits and pieces of what to do next to get Bro logs into Splunk i find myself doing the trial and error thing.
Thank you for any help (i know this can't be that difficult)

Have you tried Splunk Add-on for Zeek aka Bro?
The Splunk Add-on for Zeek aka Bro supports two log formats: TSV and JSON. JSON format is support for Zeek aka Bro versions 2.3.x, 2.4.x, and 2.5.x. Not sure about 2.6.x but you can try if there are no change logs.
