Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Carole Asselin Posted January 7, 2023 Posted January 7, 2023 When I used bbpress, since it was a WP plugin, I was able to have a list of recent posts/topics on pages other than the forum itself. I was using it on the blog page, like HERE for example. Is there a way to display recent posts in my Invision forum OUTSIDE of the Invision platform? I do use SSO to integrate with my WP installation if that makes a difference.
Daniel F Posted January 7, 2023 Posted January 7, 2023 You could create a rss feed from your IPS stream and use a WordPress plug-in to show the content inside your blog https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-display-any-rss-feed-on-your-wordpress-blog/#Displaying-any-RSS-Feed-With-a-Widget  Or if you’re also having the pages app, you could create a block and embed it inside your blog
Carole Asselin Posted January 7, 2023 Author Posted January 7, 2023 @Nathan Explosion The instructions on that page points to Pages>Page Management>Blocks, however, I can't see the "Pages". Is it poossible that I don't have it? I only installed the Forum and Gallery.

Although I see that I can use /feed/ for RSS, I am not sure what is the "exact URL" to enter to display the latest posts from the Invision forum. Edited January 7, 2023 by Carole Asselin

I can't find that information.
teraßyte Posted January 7, 2023 Posted January 7, 2023 This guide should help you on where to find the url (or on how to create a custom RSS feed too in case): Â

I see that I can set the recent topics, but I don't see a way to display the recent POSTS (similar to what I can see inside the Invision block). Is it possible or am I limited to Topics?
