1 – Are you using any redirection plugins? If so – exclude the forum slug from them.
2 – Do you have a sub-folder named the same as the forum slug? If so rename one of them.
3 – Are you using Yoast SEO? If so allow ‘ugly permalinks’.

Thank you, no redirects or subfolders named forum.  Yes on Yoast, but no option other than this for ugly permalinks which breaks the forum altogether.

Redirect ugly URL’s to clean permalinks. (Not recommended in many cases!)

People make mistakes in their links towards you sometimes, or unwanted parameters are added to the end of your URLs, this allows you to redirect them all away. Please note that while this is a feature that is actively maintained, it is known to break several plugins, and should for that reason be the first feature you disable when you encounter issues after installing this plugin.

so does that mean its disabled?  like it should be?

have you gone to forum – integration – page and permalink, and made sure the right page was selected and tried resetting the forum permalink?

do you have a link to site for us so we can look at it?

It is disabled.  I would be happy to PM you my website.  I will try resetting the forum permalink.  

And, all of the sudden the forum is above my page rather than in my page (nothing was changed on my formatting at all)

Figured out why the forum was out of the wrapper.  

Yoast SEO has a twitter card setting you can insert into the header.  That is what seems to have broken the formatting because with it not selected, the forum is back how it should be.

I PM’d Mr Papa with my site link.  

if that is the case then you probably want to tweak the settings on forum – integration – page and permalink… namely the display multiple and display in loop options… should keep it from coming out in the yoast header activity…

That worked, thank you  

I still do have the issue that is listed in post 1 and will wait for your reply.
