This forum exists so that a half-finished layout, a stubborn dropdown or a question you feel silly asking gets a straight answer from somebody who has hit the same thing.<\/p><p>Start by searching. A lot of what comes up has a solved thread already, and reading it is usually faster than waiting for a reply. If nothing matches, open a topic in the forum that fits: general discussion for what you are building, support for what is misbehaving, and the documentation forum for the setup guides.<\/p><p>When you post, say what you expected, what happened instead, and add a screenshot. Layout questions are answered far quicker with a link to the page. And when you solve it, post the fix and mark the topic solved. That is what makes the archive worth searching.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A short guide to getting the most out of the forum in your first week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":104,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[3,4,5],"class_list":["post-96","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community-news","tag-community","tag-introductions","tag-welcome"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=96"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=96"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demos.canvaswp.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=96"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
