On my wordpress page I have set permalinks in the form https://smalsparigt.org/?p=123  

When I activated this plugin all permalinks were changes to the form https://smalsparigt.org/exempelinlagg/ so no-one could navigate my page

I quickly uninstalled this plugin - and will never use it again until this bug is solved

Hi,

The Plain permalink structure (?p=123) is not compatible with wpForo. This structure lacks the necessary URL rewriting that wpForo relies on for generating forum-friendly and SEO-optimized URLs. As a result, using Plain permalinks can lead to issues with forum page routing and overall functionality.

To ensure full compatibility and proper operation of wpForo, it's recommended to use one of the SEO-friendly permalink structures provided by WordPress, such as Post name (/%postname%/). You can change your permalink settings by navigating to the Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks admin page.
