@pitbullish That wasn't ment to be funny. Only to help you out.

Until now, i haven't found any theme not to be compatible with wpForo, just STYLING issues that can be fixed via css.

Anyways, your theme is commercial and i can't do any tests.

@dimalifragis Very funny :-)

I didn't do any of that, the plugin created additional pages each and every time I added a new Forum. Changing the slug doesn't change the content on the page! The theme isn't compatible with this software, which is why I framed the question the way I did: What themes are compatible with this plugin? How do I make my website look like this one? (I am not getting anything on the side whatsoever and no way to configure that).

I was also reaching out to the Devs. If they are unavailable, I will uninstall and move on....Thanks!

Are you sure it doesn't work with that theme? Themes _may_ have visual issues, still "it doesn't work" is not easy to happen.

You have two pages, one with "forums" slug and one with "community" slug, so i think this is "user" error (your error) and not any compatibility with the theme.

Hi @pitbullish,

I can recommend you Shuttle iBusiness theme which is compatible with wpForo.

Doesn't work with Newspaper Theme

I was wondering if you guys could recommend an excellent Theme to go with this? I am running 5.9 and latest WooCommerce with the Newspaper Theme by Envato (themeforest). Just found this forum tonight after not working with bbpress, buddy, or forumwp!

I really like the theme, but this WpForo doesn't play nice at all. When I edit with their div Composer, it messes with this Forum plugin and vice versa. It is creating a new Forum Page every time I add another Forum, and I cannot get the links to reconcile. I have quite the mess!

So until we get caught up with 5.9 and can Integrate with Newspaper (magazine theme), I thought I would just grab another theme and split my site into 2 different domains? I am open to any suggestions.

Also, how do I contact the Devs? I would love to get them a licensed copy of my Theme so they can play with it (has over 110,000 users). I would also be happy to grant access to my Admin or SSH / FTP as well so they can dig into it.

Thanks so much,
Jay
