 * I have the global search on my members directory which searches members, groups
   and activities but I would like to have a completely separate search form on 
   my forums which only shows results for forums. Is this possible?

    Maybe there is a way (in functions.php) to add a filter on search types depending
   on the cuurent page you’re on… I will try a snippet tomorow and let you know 
   if it works 🤔💻
