This is regarding an earlier post by @Robert from 2020 about using shortcodes to link different categories or topics.  https://wpforo.com/community/postid/43796/

Deerfield Fishing Piers (e.g. ID = 2)
— What is best time to go fishing here
— Hints and Tricks to Fishing Deerfield

Sunglow Fishing Pier (e.g. ID = 10)
— Sunglow Fishing Ideas
— Is there parking at sunglow

1. You can create a new page for Deerfield Fishing Pier and insert this shortocde in this page: [wpforo item="forum" id="2"]

2. You can create a new page for Sunglow Fishing Pier and insert this shortocde in that page: [wpforo item="forum" id="10"]

Back in 2020 - "The shortcode is only designed to display certain category, forum or topic list, it doesn't create separate working forum."

 

Has there been any updates that if we use a shortcode to link a specific category on a unique page then individuals do not have to leave that page to comment and interact?  I really dont want users to have to leave a category page to head over to main forum and then back.

@nolan59 Does your code that allows user to stay on the same page still work?  Any other solutions that you have found?

I recommend exploring the wpForo Boards. Please review this documentation attentively: https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/categories-and-forums/forum-boards/
