I'm still using wpForo 1.9.9.2 version...waiting for Google release they 'Helpful Content Update' algoritm.
@percysgrowroom Because 70% of my traffic is come from Google, I won't ruin everything. I think Google has been released they new algoritm but I need to wait in 2 weeks until its settle.
I still testing 2.0.6 version on my secondary site. When the times come, I will update the main site.
@percysgrowroom Because if the new wpforo still containing bugs, it will make negative impact on the SEO aspect and will affect ranking on SERP
@adisaputro Cool man thanks for the info. I dont think i have ever seen one of my forum post in google ranking, only front end posts. Do you have any advice on how to improve the SEO of the wpforo software on my forum?
@percysgrowroom I'm not using any plugins for SEO purposed, just pure wpForo.
I am from Indonesia and my forum is about how to help students to solve their math homework.
I think page speed of website or forum does affect SEO and reducing bounce rate so that can improve ranking on google.

Yes i think youre right about that mate 🙂 Page speed is an important factor for sure
Just work to get good content in your forums and site and also VOTES for it (backlinks).
Basic SEO is ok, the SEO hype is just a myth. Tones of badly designed and slow sites, with backlinks and content that rank top.
Do not spend your time with SEO. Focus on content for USERS. Sites/forums are for Users and not for Google.
So i think im going ot do the update to my site over the next couple of days and making a back up now..... what do you think @dimalifragis, you think ill be ok?
@percysgrowroom Thanks for the "authority" but i can't answer that for someone else.
If you have full and working backup (or two), then you could try.
@dimalifragis that doesnt fill me with confidence bro 😉 lol
Sorry about that. It is ... just ... that you have a big site, a lot of plugins and the possibility that something could go south ... is increased.
But i'm sure wpForo support guys will definitely help you out, IF this is the case.
For ME (JUST ME) wpForo 2 is definitely ok to update and great to have.
