Hi. I have made Topics about 2 months ago. Should topics show up on the internet?

Is there something I should allow in the forum settings, the only thing i have blocked is user profiles.

Also should it show up like my normal urls as seen in the image? I have checked site:example.com and the forums do not show.

Thank you.

Hi,

Start by REMOVING ANY caching from wpForo pages.

https://wpforo.com/community/faq/wpforo-and-cache-plugins/#post-37150

I can't understand why people ignore wpForo warnings about it.

When done, fix your pages that are crashing with JS errors. Press F12 to view your browser console.

Your question seems to be "why my site is not Indexed by google". If so, make a Google Webmasters account and check. Not related to wpForo, still 2 months is VERY VERY young....

Ok thank you.

I have always had the caching rules since i installed the new version as it said in the documentation.

Js errors only one from google maps.

Sitemap was also installed since the new version on google and bing etc.

Site is one year old but forum is only 2 months. I did change community to forum but added in the rule

It was just a question to see if there was a setting that add a block with robots automatic.

Im guessing it just will take longer for showing, thank you any way for the suggestions.

Not sure if you mean you removed wp-rocket, but i still see it.

Anyways.

@blade

exclude wpForo with

/forum/(.*)/

will not work properly.

you have to use

/forum/
/forum/(.*)/

@tutrix Thank you I will try adding the extra /forum/ rule to wp-rocket to see it it helps.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Just check the html source of your page to see if the signature of caching is GONE.
