Hello,

We're designing a custom website and will be using your plugin. However, we don't want to use login and registration pages. We won't even use profile pages. However, we cant use be using the custom login (/sign-in) and registration (/sign-up) pages we created. How can we do this?

I'd like to make an edit here. We've identified the issue. The problem is that the plugin's login and registration URL structure is the same as ours, meaning we're using the same URL: /sign-in and /sign-up. Can we fix this? The wpforo login options are disabled, but they still appear to be enabled.

Thank you,

@deep-line-digital,
To fix the URL conflict between wpForo login/registration pages and your custom login/registration pages using the same URLs (/sign-in and /sign-up), you need to disable wpForo's login and registration page overrides.

Go to your WordPress Dashboard > wpForo > Settings > Login and Registration Settings. Make sure the options "Replace Login Page URL to Forum Login Page URL" and "Replace Registration Page URL to Forum Registration Page URL" are set to NO. Also, clear any Custom Authorization URLs fields so they are empty.

This will stop wpForo from redirecting or overriding your custom login and registration pages, effectively disabling wpForo's login and registration pages.

If you still experience issues, clear your site and forum caches after making these changes.

@wpforo-support hi,

Thank you for your response. I followed the instructions, but my issue wasn't resolved. When I use the /sign-in and /sign-up URLs, I'm redirected directly to the forum. I'm attaching a screenshot of my settings. There's no caching plugin in the website design. I'm clearing the forum's cache. Did I make a mistake?

Thank you,

The same thing is happening to me. Login from forum doesn't go to the WP login. The link still tries to go to the wpforo sign-up page, which is of course, disabled.

Hi,

Please navigate to Dashboard > wpForo > Settings > General Settings, then scroll to the Permalinks section.

Find the slugs containing special keywords (for example, sign-up or sign-in), change them to something else, and save the settings.

After that, clear all caches and check again.
