Greetings,

Just gave you a 5 Star Review at Wordpress.org!

Recently installed your AWESOME plugin.

Can you please share how to add a Forum Search to the Sidebar Widget Area similar to the one you have display to the right of this page? Image attached.

Is there a shortcode?

Thank you, kindly!

Thank you very much @digifessor-com !

wpForo has regular widgets in WordPress Widgets admin page, please read this documentation, and see which sidebar you use:

Hi Robert,

Thanks for responding!

I added the Search to the Sidebar Widget and did a search, and it did not search the Forum, but it searched the website itself.

Information came up for that keyword from the website, but not the Forum. The keyword I searched for - "Main Forum" and nothing showed up.

How can I set the Search to look for information on the Forum?

Thank you, kindly!

Robert
