How can I add translations to my forum? And how does it work? The forum is automatically translated to spanish if the users IP is from a spanish speaking country?  Or is their a menu to select which language you want?

The language of forum depends on WordPress language. WordPress language setting is on Dashboard > Settings > General admin page, make sure it Spanish. If wpForo is not translated automatically, it means wpForo doesn't have Spanish translation. As far as I know it only has "Spanish - Mexican" translation. If you want to translate wpForo to other Spanish versions please read this FAQ topic:

I do not want spanish to be my default language.. I want the users to be able to switch from english to spanish, russian,  etc.

I'm sorry I don't follow you. Do you want just change wpForo language when the site language is changed? Or maybe you want to have three separate forums with three different language content?

However please note, wpForo is not compatible with WPML yet. Also you can't have three separate forums in one WP installation.

Hi, Same question here, we have a website with 3 languages selection, if we select french, it will add ?lang=fr to the URL and the main forum http://xxx/community/?lang=fr  will be displayed in French correctly (the main page), but as soon as we click in a forum title, the ?lang=fr is not added to the URL and the forum is then displayed back in english, how can we fix this ?

Thank you
