Hi,

When I go to Integration ->Page and Permalink -> WP Forum Page Details, I have this error message :

ERROR: The page slug is either missing or incorrect. The forum will not display until this is corrected

I currently have “forum” selected.

I changed the permalink setting in WP to have the postname. So the link to the forum page is www.agriblogue.ca/forum. This works fine but if I click on a Forum name or on a Topic, I always get back to www.agriblogue.ca/forum and unable to see the Topic page. (Note: since the forum is live, I got back to the default permalink and it works fine)

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

When in the Integration panel and after selecting the Wp page and checking it is the correct slug etc., have you updated that panel? And after updating the panel also updated the forum permalink? This really needs doing after a WP permalink change to ensure the rules are set up.

If that does not change anything then the only time I have seen this happen was when a user had more than one page with the same slug. Now, this is not supposed to be able to happen but it can. It is worth checking for and while checking also check the trash on the WP pages listing just in case because that can also cause confusion.

let’s see if any of that is the answer…
