Hi when I try to add the shortcode [wpforo item=”forum” id=”1”] on my page I get what is shown in the attached jpg.  On my theme (Woffice) I need to put the shortcode in a text box on the page using the pagebuilder.

Please use the post editor Text Mode when you put this shortcode. Also try with the default theme to make sure this is theme conflict.

Hi Robert - This worked to get the table to show up on my page, but none of the subforums show (see screenshots attached)

I see you use "Turn WordPress to wpForo" option. Please disable it in Dashboard > Forums > Settings admin page. If you want to have forum on home page please use this instruction:

Also don't use wpForo shortcodes on home page. It's not tested yet and we don't recommend.
