Step 1 | Add Wix Forum to your site

The initial step towards creating your online community is to integrate Wix Forum into your website.

Once you have integrated Wix Forum into your website, two primary pages will be generated automatically:

​

  • Forum Page: This is the main page of your forum where all of the forum posts will be displayed.

  • Members Page: On this page, members of the forum community will be able to view and interact with each other. They can follow one another, read what other members have posted, and even engage in chats.

Step 2 | Create a category

Categories play a crucial role in ensuring a well-structured and organized forum. It's important to consider the purpose of your forum and determine the categories accordingly. The possibilities for categories are virtually endless and can encompass any topic that aligns with the theme of your site and elicits interest and participation from your forum community.
