created per startup instruction.

The forums page with only the shortcode in it produces text instead of form showing forums. Then when if you click on the image it takes you to the most recently created Forum page.

I’ve posted this problem several times but it disappears.

This is theme related.

As you have a paid theme with support, I’d suggest you refer it to them, we can’t fix as we can’t see your theme.

Where did you get the information from??

As for your theme , if you are using Genesis you can install a plugin to help.

But some other themes you have to create a template for bbPress

follow this guide

Thanks Robkk, I will try to find the instruction but it was about setting up a forums page so their could be a link to it in the nav menu

It would be a blank page with just the shortcake for list forums.

So is it possible using /forums/ conflicts with root or something already being used by bbpress?
