Hello again,

Please, is it possible to don’t show at all the Forum Title ? It looks like a mandatory field, cannot save without having something. I tried with a “space” and the height of its area somewhat diminished but not entirely.

 Accessory question1: Forum Title's impact on SEO if hidden/blank ?

 Accessory question2: would it be possible to format that forum title ? Different sized font, area height, padding top and bottom ?

 Thank you, wish you a nice day !

Hi UsernameMi,

1. wpForo SEO based on main SEO components:

  • SEO Friendly URLs
  • Meta Title for forums and topics (and other pages)
  • Auto-generated Meta Description for forums and topics (and other pages)
  • Open Graph and Social Engine SEO tags.
  • Well formatted and SEO friendly content structure.

You can check it for wpforo.com. It's being indexed very well, you can see new topics and posts in Google result after 1-2 hours (use time tool in search result).

More info about wpForo SEO:

https://wpforo.com/docs/root/wpforo-settings/general-settings/#forum-title-desc

2. You should use the following CSS selector and and write any CSS rules, that you'd like:

  #wpforo #wpforo-wrap #wpforo-title{ 
    color:#24905b
    font-size:25px
}

Hi,

Thank you for support.

I consider such forum title redundant with the website title and forum page obviously displayed. Anyway, what SEO want, God want, right ?

To get rid of that space but keeping a forum title for SEO, I tried this and it works well for me:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap #wpforo-title{
      font-size:2px;
      line-height:1px;
      position:absolute;
      color:#3F51B5;

However, I don’t know if SEO would be ok with it. Any advice?

Thank you, have a nice day:)

This CSS will not affect SEO. All is ok, no worries.
