I removed major plugins. I have one more problem due to the plugin. I changed the address of my forum page from "Forum" to "forum". Now the page does not appear in the Google index. When I enter from google it gives 404 error.

@onurkansan,

Ok, this is an expected issue. It's time to remove the duplicated forum and leave one.

1. Go to Dashboard > Forums > Settings > General Tab, make sure the forum base URL is /forum/.

2. Go to Dashboard > Pages and find the forum page. Edit that page and change the page slug to forum . Save it, go to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard and click the [Delete all caches] button.

3. Then install some redirection plugin like Simple 301 Redirects. Go to the plugin settings and redirect:

/Forum to /forum
/Forum/* to /forum/*
/community to /forum
/community/* to /forum/*

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
