Hi,

I have multiple subforums on one page but would want to split them up to show on different pages.

Is it possible ?

http://www.saccountantsforum.co.za

Example: I would like to only show the "About Forum" group with its subforums on a new page.

Thank you 

Arno

Simple:Press uses just one WP page to display itself on so multiple pages - as such - are not possible.

But - your page is not showing any 'sub-forums' but IS showing a very large list of main forums. We would normally recommend breaking those down into a more manageable number and the use of sub-forums is, of course, a good, possible way to do this.

Worth noting to that a large numbers of forums does effect overall performance.

Is it then possible to convert my main forums to subforums ?

Absolutely.

Display the 'Manage Groups and Forums' panel in the forum admin.

On the 'Group' entry - click on the 'Order Forums' button over on the right.

And read the popup help as that explains what you need to do to create sub-forums below parent forums.

Thanks, I see it works.

Is there a limit as to the number of subforums you can have ?

No. No limits. They can be nested as well...

See post #3 above. As I said - SP uses a single page only.
