Hi there,
I'm trying to insert at the end of this page one of my topics (id = 17378)
I'm using this shortcode:
[ wpforo item="topic" id="17378" ]
But what appears on the page is the main page of my forums.
If I try for example this shortcode...
[ wpforo item="topic" id="1" ]
...it works correctly and it inserts the firs of my topics.
This is the topic that should appear:
https://michelacosta.com/messi-vs-cristiano/foro/general/balon-de-oro-2021/#post-17378
I guess the id is what we see at the end of the querystring
@chris worked like a charm, thanks!
I guess you used the post ID not the topic ID in the shortcode, that was the problem why the shortcode didn't work.
@chris probably! I took the id from the url and it must be the post id. Where can i see the topic id?
For topics better to use slug, not ID, to get reed of unexpected issues
Hmm...I've always used IDs and hadn't have any issues either.
Unexpected issue is that users use wrong ID's` post, forum, category IDs in the shortcode for topics.
@chris i was looking for something like a topic id, everywhere, and couldn't find it. I only see that post id in the url.
Can you tell me where to find that topic id? Would be helpful for the future.
I guess there must be a place to find this id without having to go to the database directly.
