Page integration issues in theme with static blocks

I was using the theme Salutation for my site and ran in a strange problem.

 

This theme is different from most other WP themes as it uses Static Blocks (custom post types) for adding header, sidebar and footer.

 

The Simple-press forum asks for a page for integration. The problem is that on that page, in this particular theme, the forum loads in 3 place, once in header, once in main body and once in footer. Seemingly because, technically those static blocks are also pages.

 

Is it possible NOT to chose a page for integration and add the forum using some shortcode on a specific page?

Have a look at the Theme Display Options in Dashboard>Forums>Integration and try various options. My guess is that Limit forum display to within WP loop will fix your issue.
