XF 2.2 How to show group forum on a Wordpress site?

[Deleted member 241496]

I know integrating Wordpress and Xenforo has been discussed alot. But that is not what we are trying to do. We have a group of individuals that created a group on our site and they wish to show their forum only on their Wordpress site. We don't want to give them the database info and embedding our page isn't working. We looked at RSS as well, but it wont show the info from the group for some reason. Is there a way to display the group page only with their forum on a separate Wordpress site? If it helps, this is what we want to display on their Wordpress site:

Las Vegas Electric Vehicle Association

Electric vehicle(EV) community and forums.

www.talkingevs.com

To embed an XF page in an iframe on another site, you need to disable clickjacking protection.

Config.php options | Manual | XenForo

End-user documentation for XenForo

xenforo.com

That seems like it wouldnt be safe to do and would open the site up to attacks? We are trying to share the RSS feed but for some reason it wont do it from the groups forum node.

The RSS URL is https://www.talkingevs.com/forums/las-vegas-electric-vehicle-association.112/-/index.rss

However, it looks like you're using a third party add-on so there's no actual content in the feed (threads, posts).

OK, i thought we just add RSS to the end of the URL and it pulls it from there. When i check that RSS, it shows the two posts to the node for the group. The group add-on creates a thread node in xenforo which is what that RSS link is pulling. Comparing the RSS on that to the main forum RSS, it looks the same. So it should be working but isnt?

You're confusing me a bit saying there is not any actual content in the feed.

There is no content: https://www.talkingevs.com/forums/las-vegas-electric-vehicle-association.112/-/index.rss

This is what a forum RSS feed should look like: https://xenforo.com/community/forums/xenforo-questions-and-support.25/-/index.rss

The addon is the group add-on by @Ozzy47 . Maybe we are seeing different things, this is what is shows on my end (shows two posts to the thread, which there are):

Then it's a permissions issue - you likely have to be logged in or a group member to see the content.

You will need to change the permissions or contact the add-on author for assistance with changing how the RSS feed works.
