Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew how I could set one of my forums to actually redirect on click. I used IPB in the past and you could create a new forum category and set it to be a URL redirect on click. Is this possible?

Hi erich199

Sorry, but I don't follow you.

Guess you convert your forum from IPB to wpForo. Which methods do you use for migration (you find developers for this purpose or use some free tools)?

In case you want to say thank you 😊

We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

Hi,

Sorry for the confusion. In IPB, I can set the “Forum Type” to “Dicussion” Category” “URL Redirect”.

I have attached a photo to show you what I’m talking about.

I would like to see this feature for WPForo as well. The ability to redirect a forum to another page.

I'm sorry, but wpForo has no such feature.

However, we'll take under consideration for future releases.

Thanks so much. Hope it makes it into a release. I use some forums to redirect to WordPress pages that contains information for my members. It’s really useful vs having to add tons of menu items.
