Forums plugin only allows one forum

There’s no ” add another” button or anything after I make

the first forum.

Also can I use something like this function to auto have a forum fro this plugin into each post , by using post number maybe?

<?php if (function_exists(‘forumx’:wink:) { forumx(); } ?>

    “This plugin allows each blog to have one or more forums that can be created by dropping a special code into a post or page.”

    Can each post have it’s own new forum?

    It’s advertised for posts as well. Creating the first forum is a setting in the plugin. Making a new page or post won’t create the new quick codes I need for more than 1 post. Right now there’s only one forum quick code [forum:2] to be used in each post , which is the same forum. Why isn’t “create new forum” still available after I make the first one.

    By default, the plugin limits to one forum per blog. In order to change that you need to open up the forums-framework.php file and change line 36;

    $forums_max_forums = 1; //The maximum number of forums per blog - Max 25

    …replacing the number 1 with the number of forums you want to create.

    An Add New link will then appear on the forums settings page.
