To play a D with f# bass or "D/F#" you would play a standard D chord with fingers 1, 2 and 3. You can then play the F# bass with your thumb extended over the sixth string at the second fret. D is made up of three notes, D, F# and A. You are doubling the 3rd as the bass note in this case. The other way would be to play 4th finger on the 4th fret on the 4th string (also an F#). This is a bit of a stretch and in my opinion does not sound as full. If you do the thumb method you can include ALL the strings in the chord making it FAT.
