Im not using menu bar in my design but I need to use the Forum search to include it in my foro pages.
Is there a shortcode to include the search box in the place that I choose?

Alejandro
Hi @aflamerich,
if you use some page builder then you can add wpForo Search widget in any place of your page. wpForo has a widget with forum search field, so it can be located wherever you want.
Hi @robert
Thanks for your reply. Do you have any documentation link where I can see how to add this widget?
If you want to add that widget in pages you these article will help you. Most of them based on creating widget shortcode and putting it wherever you want:

@robert I tried to use https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-widget/ to add the wpforo search box to a shortcode and than use it in an elementor page ... but, no way, the wpforo search widget is not showing into the plugin content plugin.
I tried to find wpforo search widget directly in elementor builder, but I cannot find it.
Can you please help me?
The way I want is to add a big search field on top of this forum https://asoal.it/community/
thank you very much
"https://asoal.it/community/forum/" is somehow wrong. It should be one of them, or whatever name you select.
