Anyone managed to add a free Vanilla forum to a RW site and would care to share the URL?

I’ve set the forum up but am getting all manner of errors - mainly SSL-related to calling Google fonts, I think - and I’d love to see a forum in the wild to reassure myself it’s possible before I spend any more time on it.

Many thanks in advance.

Rob

Lesson learned. Once you’ve installed the forum using Softaculous you must then choose the Embed-friendly theme and then make sure you turn embedding ‘ON’ using the world’s most uselessly-flagged on/off switch. That then generates the correct embed code which can be pasted into an HTML stack and Bob’s your uncle.

As you were.
