Menu item to bbPress forum

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 3

I’d like a menu item that will enable the user to navigate to a specific bbPress forum. Cannot find any information on how to do this. Ideas:

– Create a page with the correct shortcake? If this is the way to go, how do I find the forum id for [bbp-single-forum id="?"]

– Create a link to the forum page? If this, can I create a link relative to my site so it will work both in test and production?

Thanks, Eric

Hello EricElf,

Yes, this is possible. If you have created a forum and then you have to go to the menu area, you will see the option to add your forum to the menu bar as menu item, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/rpyopkn4owH
If is not what you mean, please provide more details about your desired changes so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.

Thank you for the message!

From Appearance → Menus I don’t have a Forums option. And I see that you also have Books, Genres, and Authors which I do not. Have I turned off something?

Hello EricElf,

Please ensure that you have instal correctly the bbPress and then try to do a forum active and check again the Menus area and that option should be active.
If you need more assistance in this regard and you cannot do this after advice, please provide your website URL and your credentials (wp-admin) so we can further inspect your setup page. Also, please provide the link to this topic so we can know who you are and what the issue is.

Thank you for the message!
