Hi guys,

Hi @hoop-ball,

This is a cache file of wpForo. This file contains a copy of the cached post content. So, some user of your forum has posted a malware URL in #31667 post. You should find that post and delete, then delete wpForo cache in Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page.

You can find that post using the short URL:

https://example.com/your-forum-path/postid/31667/

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.
