For wpForo, the best option is the built-in wpForo SEO system. If it is already turned on it works fine. So there is no need to install additional SEO plugins. 

wpForo SEO based on main SEO components:

  • SEO Friendly URLs
  • Meta Title for forums and topics (and other pages)
  • Auto-generated Meta Description for forums and topics (and other pages)
  • Open Graph and Social Engine SEO tags.
  • Well formatted and SEO friendly content structure.

You can check it for wpforo.com. It's being indexed very well, you can see new topics and posts in Google result after 1-2 hours (use time tool in search result).

All is correct. This is the correct integration. WordPress SEO plugins are based on post types, but wpForo is not based on post types, thus they cannot provide SEO for wpForo. They must be excluded from forum pages because those see all forum pages as one main page, thus those break forum SEO. Now Rank Maths plugin is excluded and it doesn't break forum SEO. So this is also called as integration, because woForo has built-in SEO system, it does correct SEO forum forum so all other SEO plugins only break wpForo SEO and makes problems.

wpForo SEO adds correct SEO meta data in forums, topics, posts, it cares about correct titles and other SEO components. Also wpForo SEO generates forum Sitemap. You can find that Sitemap URL in your Dashboard > Forums > Settings > General tab.
