Forum summary in admin

Ricsca — Sat, 04 Apr 2026 15:13:18 +0000

Bbpress summarizes forum statistics in admin; it would be nice if WpForo could do this too.
It's not very useful, but it's an interesting feature for forum admins.

No AI Assitent widget on forum

Singletrackmark — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 22:44:54 +0000

We've got it running on our dev site but struggling with the indexing. Our forum is 10m posts. But I can't seem to find the AI Widget or the Chat bot visible on the front end. We are on the business subscription with lots of credits. Other AI features are visible like a 'summarise' button and 'translate'. What am I missing?

Yoast and Wpforo clash?

hbk747 — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 21:55:49 +0000

Hi wpForo Team,

I am reaching out regarding a compatibility issue between wpForo and the Yoast SEO plugin. While wpForo states that it is compatible with Yoast, I am seeing conflicting SEO data being generated on my forum topic pages, which is causing issues with duplicate meta tags and broken social media previews.

When I inspect the page source of a community forum post, both wpForo and Yoast are actively injecting data into the , rather than wpForo overriding Yoast.

Here is what is currently outputting on a single topic page:

wpForo's Output: wpForo correctly generates its SEO block (``), including the canonical URL, description, Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:url, og:locale, etc.), and Twitter cards.
Yoast's Output: Immediately below that, Yoast tries to output its own data (). Because it cannot read the dynamic forum content, it outputs an admin warning (), but it still injects duplicate tags like og:locale, article:publisher, and Twitter tags.

The Impact: Because both plugins are outputting Open Graph and Twitter card data, social media platforms (Facebook, X, LinkedIn) are getting confused by the duplicate tags. This results in link previews pulling incorrect formatting or failing to pull the wpForo-generated data.

My Question: Is the built-in Yoast compatibility supposed to automatically disable Yoast's meta output on wpForo pages? If so, it appears to be failing. As a temporary workaround, I have to manually go into Yoast and disable it for the forum's custom post types.

Could your development team look into why Yoast is not cleanly yielding to wpForo's SEO data on topic pages?

Thank you for your time and help!

wpForo forum page shows empty with Twenty Twenty-Four theme

JanaK — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 13:58:31 +0000

Hello,

I installed wpForo on my WordPress site running Twenty Twenty-Four theme. The forum index page works fine (shows list of forums), but when I click on any individual forum, the page is completely empty — no content, no header, no footer.

In the page source I can see these PHP warnings:

Warning: Attempt to read property "post_content" on null
Warning: Attempt to read property "ID" on null
page-id- is empty in the body class

The body class shows is_wpforo_page-1 and is_wpforo_url-1 so wpForo recognizes the page, but WordPress cannot load the page content.

I tried:

Hard flush permalinks
Recreating the forum page
Disabling other plugins one by one

WordPress version: 6.9.4 wpForo version: 2.4.17 Theme: Twenty Twenty-Four

Thank you for your help.

How can I optimize wpForo performance without affecting site speed?

DandyTints — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 13:24:11 +0000

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently added wpForo to a WordPress site and I’m trying to optimize its performance without negatively impacting overall site speed. While the forum works well, I’ve noticed some slowdown in page load times, especially on discussion-heavy pages.

Here’s the site I’m currently testing:

I’d love to know what optimization techniques, caching strategies, or settings adjustments you recommend for wpForo to keep things running smoothly.

Any advice or real-world experiences would be really helpful. Thanks!

AI Content Indexing - Cloude Storage vs Local Storage

Singletrackmark — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 08:34:47 +0000

We have 3.0 installed on our dev and I'm getting my head around it all. Our forum is very big. We have over 10m posts and 550k topics. There's the option in the settings to use AWS cloud for forums that are larger than 100k. I've selected that. But what exactly does that do? What is being shipped to the cloud and what is not?

Fix the design of the mobile version. It looks very crooked.

Forum not showing for non Moderators

robins — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 03:07:53 +0000

I've tried everything, when my users (Platinum/Gold/Subscriber) are set to admin they can see the Forum, otherwise they cant, literally every settings I have tried. I even set the root forum to guest access and it still doesn't show anything for non moderators.

I think it's an icon bug.

Ricsca — Sun, 29 Mar 2026 10:12:50 +0000

I think the message icons in categories shouldn't look like this, or am I wrong?

Remove the warning message for users who aren't allowed to attach files?

vanessa — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 19:02:51 +0000

Hi there,

Is there a way to remove the message " You are not allowed to attach files on this forum. It is possible that you have not reached the minimum required number of posts, or your user group does not have permission to attach files in this forum."

that shows to users who aren't allowed to attach files?

We'd rather just have this hidden completely and not show the message if a user can't attach files.

thx
