I have three board setup on my member site. The default one which is blank and two others specific to membership levels. I am trying to create a community page for the board with the ID 2 (see board IDs here)

I am using the shortcode [wpforo boardid="2"] BUT this is only showing the first board category.

Both of these shortcodes return a blank forum page not the default one:
[wpforo item="forum" id="2"]
[wpforo boardid="0" item="forum" id="2"] (same result if I replace the first 0 with a 2)

Also, how do I hide "home" in the forum menu. As you can I already have a menu in member area and with board now shortcoded into a page that home link doesn't work anyway.

In this case, you don’t need the multi-board system. You can simply use one board with forms under it, and then configure each forum’s access settings separately for each usergroup.

I have created a usergroup and ALL the forums under Board 2 are setup to be accessed by this usergroup. The problem is that the when I use the shortcode to put the board on a page in my member level it is only showing the first forum and not the other two. If you simply view the forum on a blank page at the default link you can see all three.

Forum embeded in member level

I even tried simply adding some sub-forums instead of separate boards and they still don't show up. No matter what I do I only get the very first forum in the board to appear on the page.
