I need to know how to find the Forum id for mybb 1.6. I have read the forums that you can get it by going to the forum and checking the url. But I do not get the fid when I check my url. I get it like this http://www.mywebsite.com/Forum-Pilot-News

This is what happens on all forums. How do i find the Forum ID?
ACP -> Forums and Posts
Hover over a forum's name, the fid is displayed at the bottom left of your browser next to fid=(fidnumberhere)
Or if you mean find it in code, usually you'd sue $mybb->input['fid'], but it's probably better to ask in the Google SEO thread if this'd work or not, may not do.
Thanks.


When i write $mybb->input['fid'] into the forum threads dont work
How know the father "$mybb->input['fid']" into the forum threads?
First of all, do not bump old threads, just create a new thread for your question.

Anyway, to find FID using Google SEO, Go to the the forumdisplay page and hover your mouse pointer over the "New Thread" button, see the status bar, it should be visible like this: http://yourdmoain.com/newthread.php?fid=11 Where fid is your forum ID Wink
