Hi
Is it possible to limit the WordPress plugin bbpress to a single forum? I want to only have a single forum on my site, where users can create new topics within that forum. I’d like to remove the Forum List page entirely as well.

I’ve tried putting the shortcode from this post (Restricting bbpress to a single forum) on my individual forum page, but that didn’t seem to work…

Please let me know your thoughts!

both those methods should work.

when you say you are using the shortcode – exactly what have you got on that page?

I have [bbp-single-forum id=367], including brackets, placed in the “text” area of my forum page (not the forum list page). Is that not correct?

[Robin W]

presuming that 367 is your forum number, then that should be ok

if it is not displaying it could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back
