First of all, I want to apologize for my bad language

 

I have installed your forum
And I'm very pleased with his looks
I have a few questions

1. How can I download what appears in the picture attached, it's just superfluous.
2. How a user defined as an editor can block a user. How does he get to his special control center?
3. Is there a possibility to put widgets inside the forum itself.
4. Is the plugin of private messages, the administrator can read all messages.
5.Can I try the extensions for a while, so I'll know if to buy them
6.When a user reports an abusive message, where the manager can see the report prominently except for what is emailed to him

Thank you!

Hi toraor,

Please find my answers below:

1. How can I download what appears in the picture attached, it's just superfluous.

I see RSS Feed links on the image and I don't understand what do you mean saying "Download". RSS Feed is not for downloading.

2. How a user defined as an editor can block a user. How does he get to his special control center?

Editors cannot block users and they don't have Dashboard Forum Settings access yet. We'll add it in future releases.

3. Is there a possibility to put widgets inside the forum itself.

wpForo has own sidebar on the right side. But there s no other place inside forum. More info about wpForo sidebars and widgets here:

https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-sidebar-and-widgets/wpforo-sidebar/

https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-sidebar-and-widgets/wpforo-widgets/

4. Is the plugin of private messages, the administrator can read all messages.

Admins should not read private messages. So there is no way in dashboard read private messages. There was a poll regarding this issue. You can find more info here: https://gvectors.com/forum/wpforo-private-messages/private-messages-question/#post-6828

5.Can I try the extensions for a while, so I'll know if to buy them

You can only try addons on wpForo demo forum. Just register and test them: https://addons.wpforo.com/community/

6.When a user reports an abusive message, where the manager can see the report prominently except for what is emailed to him

All reports are being sent directly to forum administrators email addresses. Admin email addresses should be set in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Emails admin page. More info in doc: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/wpforo-settings/emails-settings/

I did not mean how to download to the computer, but how I could download that users would not see it
They have nothing to do with it

I'm sorry but there is no any option for that. If you disable RSS, you'll not be able to call it too.

Thank you very much for all the answers listed

I realized that there was a way to see the private messages through the database. This is critical for me, so I'd love to get guidance on how to do it

Thanks in advance

Only the key admin (website owner) who have Hosting service access can find private messages table in cPanel  > phpMyAdmin database manager > Browse wp_wpforo_pms table.

Another question I wanted to ask was whether it was possible to define a forum that only one user could view and edit, so that each user would have his own forum

I'm sorry but Forum Accesses are based on Usergroup not on individual user.

Last question [so I hope ...]
How do I set the Forum Sidebar to not appear on all forum pages, but only on the main page?
Is it possible to set each forum or any other page as a different sidebar?

Thank you
