I have renamed the root forum link to ‘discussions’ and then tried both methods of creating a page (with and without the shortcode). If I go directly to a subforum or topic, everything is fine. But if I want to go to the forum home (index), the URL mysite.com/discussions/ executes a search on my WP site, rather than taking me to the main page of for the forum. The same happened when I used the default name for the forum root. I can’t share a link, because the site is Members-only.

I changed the destination page from Forum Index to Topics by Freshness and that works. For now, that’s good enough. If you know of a better solution, let me know.
