Hi there,

I have this shortcut to one of my forums, in my homepage:

wpforo item="forum" slug="main-category-general-es"

I used to see only the forum at the bottom of my homepage, but after I updated the last version of wpForo today, I see the complete list of forums first, and then the one I want to show.

Screenshot attached. All the red square wasn't there

@michelacosta,

Please note that if you use the category shorticode all forums of that category are displayed as well. It was a bug before, now it's fixed, so you see the forums of your shortcode category. If you want to see only topics of certain forum, you should use that forum ID (not the parent category). Forum IDs can be found in Dashboard > Forums > Forums admin page. Here is the correct shortcode:

wpforo item="forum" id="2"

I have changed it to...

wpforo item="forum" id="2"

 And it remains the same. I still all see the categories above.

@michelacosta,

If the ID is the category ID then all is correct, you should see all forums of that category.

@robert I want to insert only one forum.

I have this structure (attached) and I only want to insert forum number 2 in my homepage

It inserts forum number 2 correctly, but it shows all the forum structure above

@michelacosta,

Ok, we'll check this issue and fix in the next version release. I'll let you know once we found the issue.
