Looking for a solution:
Hi! Now that the Wix Forums are being discontinued, I am trying to figure out the best option. I really like the feel and functionality of the classic forums. I would like to use Wix Groups as Facebook style “special interest” groups for certain members, while having a Forum for my website’s entire community of members.
What are my options? I would really like to have the forums on my website instead of directing users elsewhere. Thanks!

As mentioned in the article Wix Forums will stay on the site but users will not be able to make new posts starting October 15th and the forum will be deleted on March 1st 2026.
If you do want to migrate the data from the forum to Wix Groups, you follow the steps outlined here (and those do work similarly to “special groups” within Facebook) and users can make topics where conversations will be threaded together.
I think the closest to having a general conversation and more specific groups would be labeling the groups as such so that the conversations move to appropriate group.
