Groups are not Forums. No Search Topics No Simple List to Scan Questions Group Page Takes Over Entire Screen: Losing Header and Site Menu. Lots of Extraneous Posting Like “Joe Joined Group” View Counts are Just Refreshes Forums answer a need for quick question and answer. Groups are for discu…

Good luck with that. I can confirm that having had Forums on my site for years (our site actually began and as a Forum template) I did not receive an email back in April and only learned of this silly decision by chance quite recently. The Forum app was the only Wix-built App that I didn’t have to r…

Um… How about keeping both? :thinking: I’m just building my website now and was thinking about adding a forum, so just noticed about this Forum→Groups thing right now. I’ll have to work with Groups, I guess, but I do see room for improvement. If they serve two different purposes and the Forum has …

Please forward me communication from Wix sent to me in April. I am confident you will not find anything. I’m standing by….

I reached out to the team for clarity. Based on feedback from the community, the timeline was adjusted to allow more space for the transition (as previously mentioned). Following that, in-product communication was updated, and additional email communication was recently sent. I’ve updated my earlier…

Keep the pressure on friends. WIX needs to see this is an issue big enough to reverse course on. They use the “Vote For” approach unfortunately. For this issue though, they need to not remove an essential way to “Collaborate” and “Community Build”.

I agree. Groups is garbage. They traded functionality for imposed junk. They need to reimburse all paid customers for forcing incomplete, half baked broken features. And “migration” was a joke that wasn’t funny. Also there removal of Shared Gallery for nonsense like Pro-Gallery and AnyFile that do…

I tried migrating my forum to groups. It does not look like it maintains the user base I’ve worked to build up over the years. In fact, it does not appear to perform the same function at all. What it looks like is you resetting years of my work to build the /forum link of my site into a place people…

Terminating Wix Forum is an astonishing betrayal. The Forum feature is a core value of the product. Groups is useful, but does not offer an alternative to Forum. The alternative appears to be migration to a 3rd-party forum app and embed it in the Wix site. With many forum categories and subcateg…

We really value having the Forum and we’re disappointed to hear it will be removed. Groups are not the same as a forum because they do not offer the same level of structure, organization and easy navigation that our communities need. Many of us have built our sites and communities around the Forum …

Just out of curiosity… Is it possible to change the text of the tabs in number 3? I can edit the text in numbers 1 and 2, but I was wondering if I could “rebrand” the concepts of Groups and Posts in my website… Does anyone know? [image]
