How to add a forum to WordPress


This post takes you step by step through the process of adding a forum to WordPress. It’s a simple process to get up and running – in fact, it only takes one click to install a working WordPress forum. We’ll then look at some more advanced options. Not just another list
I’ve tried to avoid writing a blog post that turns into just another list of plugins copied from the WordPress directory (like some blog posts I could name). Instead, we’ll look at forums in general before focusing on guidance for installing and configuring a single plugin.
Some sites will post articles about the “best” forum plugin for WordPress but that seems to be a very subjective viewpoint and a plugin that meets the needs of one person might not be right for another. I’ve concentrated on the Discussion Board plugin and just added a brief list of alternative WordPress forum plugins here as extra bonus content at the end.
