This is the markup for the particular section i’m adding the shortcode into:

<div id="top-content" class="container container-limited">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-xs-12 big">
      <h1 class="brownish"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
      
      <?php echo the_field('description'); ?>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Should be fairly simple i reckon?

@dw5000 Have you entered the Asgaros Forum inside the normal content-editor of your page? It can only be recognized there. If you enter the shortcode in a custom-field it will not work there.

It’s added here. I didn’t build the theme so i don’t know if this is not the normal content-editor?

Seems it’s an ACF field. Alright, then i just need to figure out how to get the ‘normal’ content editor into the loop 🙂

This looks a bit different compared to the default WordPress-editor for me.

Please try again the following:

• enable/install one of the default WordPress themes (TwentySeventeen for example)
• disable the Advanced Customfields Pro plugin
• check the forums-page in the backend, ensure that the shortcode is inside the default WordPress editor (see screenshot) and save it again
• go to Forum -> Settings and ensure again that the location points to your forums-page and save the settings once again even when everything looks fine
• now check if its working in the frontend

If its working:

• enable your custom theme again (if its not working, its a theme-problem and you should contact its developer)
• enable Advanced Customfields Pro (if its not working, its a bug in this plugin and you should contact its developer or try to figure out which custom-field you can use for the default content-editor)

Well if the shorttag is not recognised by the plugin if entered into an ACF field then this is 100% the issue as the editor i see is an ACF field (editor).

I was thinking trying to get the default editor into the text-page template so i didn’t have to disable and make things break on the live site 🙂

Anyway, i now have something to go by. Thanks a million for your time and support – much appreciated!!

Bam!

Happy to see that its working now. Seems there is a little theme-incompatibility with the search-field. If you can provide a link to your forum I can check the CSS and fix it in the next release.

One issue is that i don’t see the Register button while logged out? It’s checked in the forum settings, don’t know if i did anything wrong?
