- [wpforo item="topic" id="10"] - Loads topic with . On this page you can see all posts (with pagination) of the ID=10 Topic.

We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
what if we want to load group forum ? so it will be easier to separate QA, and Extended / Simplified. So it means that if somebody want to make Stackoverflow-alike, they can create a page with a QA style, and community or forum-alike, they can create it with Ext / Simplified style.
You can use Category/Group Forum ID in this shortcode [wpforo item="forum" id="3"].
So you can load different forum groups on different pages. You can find Category and Forum IDs on Forums admin page:

Wow nice, thanks Robert.
Can't wait for the golden version 1.0
Hi,
No shortcode for last topic ? 🙂
Thanks for the new version btw 😀
After hours of trying to work this out, didn't realise you had a thread for this 🙁
I hope in next version there come widget shortcodes. 😉
Hello, In using the short codes, it places the posts "on top" of the page, Is there a way to get it to be placed towards the bottom of the page instead?
I used the following: [wpforo item="forum" id="2"] which does exactly what I wanted, and I placed this near the bottom of everything, But, it is showing the posts above everything instead, I need it placed below everything.
wpForo is designed to show the content in page not on top of page. This is a site specific issue, probably with your theme or with other plugins which perform some shortcode in post contents. I'd recommend deactivate all plugins and check it again.

Is there a shortcode similar to this
[wpforo item="profile" id="25"]
but that loads up the CURRENT user rather then a specific one? I want to intergrate a user's profile view with a few other elements.
Thanks!

Yes, this is 100% needed. It shouldn't be this difficult to put a custom link to a user's profile anywhere you want.
I figured out how to do it in php but you need to have Members URL structure: set to USER_ID
<a href="https://www.yourwebsite.com/community/account/'. $current_user_id = get_current_user_id() .'/">Edit Profile</a>
