In a private forum, I am using shortcodes to display the forum, topics, and the Add New Topic capability. Since the Add New Topic code is already calling the correct forum (for example, [wpforo item="add-topic" id="6"]), I don't want the drop-down box to appear, especially since it lists all forums on the entire site, the vast majority of which are off-limits to the user.

Is there a way to remove or hide the drop-down box?

Hi @brianwent,

Insert the below CSS Code in Custom CSS Code field from Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles Tab:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-topic-forum-field {
       display: none !important;
}

Thank you for the code which was simple to install and works great. My 5-star review is posted on the WP plugin page as it is well deserved.
