# Shortcode for main page

 * I have to set some specific parameters in all pages in my them to ensure they
   perform correctly. If I don’t, some artifacts will appear. This is a problem 
   on the main /forums page.
 * Is there a shortcode that will display the same content as the /forums page? 
   If there is, I can get round the problem by creating a static page and using 
   the shortcode to display the content. I have experimented with several of the
   shortcodes and parameters listed in the help system but haven’t found a combination
   that works, yet.
 * I’d appreciate some assistance.
 * Thanks for listening

 * more of a bbpress forum question than my plugin, but I’ll try and help
    You don’t
   say what you have tried or what the exact issue is, so
 * [bbp-forum-index]
 * in a page will display the main forum index

 * Thanks Robin
 * In the meantime, I have discovered the cause of the issue with the theme that
   was causing an artifact to appear, and that has cured the problem.
 * But thanks anyway. That’s one hell of a plugin you have created there by the 
   way. If the client goes for the idea, a donation will be made.
