Hi,

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

Is it possible ?

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…

How do I get the Subforums to display on another page ?

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