Hi everyone, I recently changed my WordPress permalink structure from “Plain” to “Post name” to improve SEO. Since then, all my wpForo forum pages (forum list, topics, and user profiles) return a 404 error, while normal posts and pages work fine.
I’ve tried resaving permalinks and clearing my cache, but the issue persists. The forum was working perfectly before the permalink change. I’m using wpForo 2.x with a custom theme (not wpForo theme) and no recent plugin installs besides an SEO plugin update.
Is there a specific rewrite rule or wpForo setting I might be missing after changing permalinks? Any guidance on how to properly refresh or rebuild wpForo URLs would be appreciated.
