Cheers for the quick replies, mates! It's ace to see this forum buzzing. So, WP Foro doesn't have that shortcode feature yet. If anyone from WP Foro is here, maybe consider it? 😉

For now, I'll use the Widget Shortcode Plugin. Big thanks, everyone! 👍

@lorena

You can use the > WidgetShortcode Plugin
And then paste the generated shortcode for the wpForo Recent Post Widget into the body

example you can see on my page > https://www.tutrix.de/

@lorena,

Use wpForo sidebar and put the widgets in the sidebar.

You can place it in the sidebar, if you have one. For the body, i can suggest you try some plugin that creates shortcodes for widgets. Because there is no shortcode for what you want.

Thank you for answering. Ok, I was able to add it to the footer using widgets, but what I want is to place it in the body of the homepage and not in the footer, perhaps using a shortcode. How can I do that? Because in Elementor, there isn't a special widget for WP Foro.

Hi,

Use a wpforo widget for that?

Hi Community! 🖐️

Can I showcase the most recent forum posts on the main page of my website? If so, what's the method?

I aim to keep my site visitors updated with the latest discussions and enhance user engagement. Any guidance you can recommend would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Lorena.
