There is a conflict between the WordPress permalink structure & wpForo and you don't care about this?!
Conflict wpForo with WHAT ? Wordpress ? I don't see any of this anywhere and i run 2 forums for myself and i have also installed wpForo, i dunno, in 10 sites or something.
All i have seen is conflict with other plugins, SEO plugins or strange/wrong permalinks configuration.
Also you seem to run W3TC and that plugin only puts a huge ammount of changes in htaccess mod_rewrite ... so .....
Please, read the full conversation before advocating!!!
Is your WP permalink structure set to: site.com/sample-post/ ?
If YES, please send me a post whose link starts with the slug of your forum.
And again, here is a clean installation of WP with JUST one plugin: wpForo.

This example site will disappear after 24 h.

@envi Please watch your language. I'm not advocating anyone. I also spend 10 minutes to check your site and possibly help.
I think some people do not deserve any replies here.
Sorry for the trouble, good luck.
You were aggressive against me. And then you're surprised by my answer.
The conflict between wpForo & WP permalink structure is a fact! This problem also appears on a clean installation of WP with only one active plugin - wpForo. Why do you deny it?
This is a big problem for wpForo and a small one for me.
Hi @envi,
We've found the problem. It'll be fixed in the next version release.
If you need to solve it asap please follow the steps below:
1. Open the wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-includes/functions.php file
2. Find the is_wpforo_url($url = '') function
3. Replace the following one:
function is_wpforo_url($url = ''){
if( wpforo_is_admin() ) return FALSE;
if(!$url) $url = wpforo_get_request_uri();
if( WPF()->use_home_url ) return TRUE;
$current_url = wpforo_get_url_query_vars_str($url);
if( WPF()->permastruct && strpos($current_url, WPF()->permastruct . '/') === 0 ) return TRUE;
return FALSE;
}
