PRO TIP: If you are planning to use Wix as a forum platform, be aware that there are some significant limitations. First and foremost, Wix does not allow you to create separate forums – all forums must be integrated into your overall website. This can make navigation confusing for users and make it difficult to keep track of discussions. Additionally, Wix only allows you to moderate forums manually, so you will need to be constantly monitoring activity to ensure that discussions stay on topic and respectful.
