This widget could help us quickly build and add a functional forum to a website. It should include standard sections, topic templates, chats, and other elements that can be customized to match a website’s design.

Hi folks, and thanks a lot for your comments here!
I do understand how appealing the idea of Forum widget might be, and I do hope we’ll start working on this project in the near future.
As you might know, almost all our energy has been put to developing our new updated Dashboard. As soon as we’re ready to release and present it to our users, we’ll be happy to get back to our Coming Soon widgets project.

Hi Sarah!
I totally get you, and I can tell that we feel awful making you wait for desirable features that long
To be honest, at the moment, we don’t have a specific release or even development date for the Forum widget, as this widget requires a deep research and dedication due to the complex conception and realization.
But when we have our Dashboard released, we’ll try to pick particular widgets and will keep you updated on how things go.
Thank you for your understanding!
See you have placed in the coming soon page. widget called help center, in my opinion there should be a community widget as well. Pls I request you give a community widget like elfsight community

@user1948 thanks a lot for your comment!
You know, we also have a Forum Widget in our Coming Soon list, which also could be a solution for you when released I guess
I have to say that this widget is quite complex and difficult to develop, so I’m afraid it’s unlikely to be released very soon. But I’ll make sure to keep you updated on the process here
Thanks a lot for your help, your ideas and suggestions are highly appreciated!
Thanks for your reply ~CEO of Shradhya r Sathi
Thanks Helga for your reply

thanks carlo
Hi Carlo! I’m afraid at the moment Forum app is in our Coming Soon project only
But I’ve moved your request to the thread where I post updated for this request! I cannot promise that Forum app will be released soon (it’s a very complex app), but I’ll make sure to share news here
If you can create a deal where its not so pricy like “website toolbox” that would be great. (a do-able subscription price to me is $20/month)
Welcome user2101, we’re glad you’re here. I might not be reading your post correctly, but $20 per month is $240 per year. Right now the investment is $180 per year. Or maybe I’m just not familiar with Website Toolbox. Otherwise, enjoy your stay.
@user2101 thanks a lot for your comment, and welcome to the Elfsight Community!
Yes, as Mike mentioned our plans start from $6 per month, so you’re always welcome to pick the most suitable plan for you! I’ve also moved your request to a similar thread where we discuss the future Forum app, and I’ll keep you updated here
Feel free to take part in other discussions and vote for the ideas you love!
