I'm building a widget that needs to display custom content based on the forum that is being shown. I therefore need to get the forum id. I've tried using

 $forumid = $forum['forumid'];

but no value is returned. How can I get the ID for the sidebar widget?

Thanks

Hi @apollo,

The current forum id is located in the WPF()->current_object['forumid'] variable. When the wpforo template is 'topic' or 'post' this value is 0.

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.
