Is it possible to have a forum without a category?

I'd like to have a setup a forum by itself so all actions like 'New Topic' automatically select that forum

Hi @vanessa

You can create and place wherever you want an [Add Topic] button, with /add-topic/ URL path. Like this: https://wpforo.com/community/add-topic/

You can add preselected forum ID to URL /add-topic/19/

You can use these shortcodes to create separate "Add Topic Page" (wrap with [ and ]):

  • wpforo item="add-topic"
  • wpforo item="add-topic" id="19"
  • wpforo item="add-topic" slug="how-to-and-troubleshooting-2"

This was added one year ago in 1.8.0 version: https://wpforo.com/community/wpforo-announcements/wpforo-1-8-0-is-released/
