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?

Regards

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.

@aflamerich,

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.
