Hi

I read in the docs that you can now specify a forum to post to using the shortcodes without having to use the dropdown forum selection.

I tried using this shortcode but it doesn’t seem to work and I still get the dropdown.

[bbp-topic-form id=544]

I want to load a form to create a new thread but have the forum hardcoded.

Thanks

Try using [bbp-topic-form forum_id=544]

Also updated the codex to reflect the correct shortcode syntax https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

Great, thanks it worked! Is there any way of doing something similar with the tags? I want the tags automatically created without the user having any choice.

There is no way to automatically assign topic tags at this stage.

Thanks for the reply Stephen. Am I correct in assuming that posting to bbPress is just like creating any WordPress custom post?

And if so, could I make my own post submission form using Gravity Forms, or are there hooks that need to be used to get it to post correctly?
