  hideMenu={false} // Whether to hide standard menu or not
  onLoadFailed={() => {

  onLoadSuccess={() => {

  onTitleChanged={title => window.document.title = "Forum: " + title} // Change your title accordingly
  onPathChanged={location => {
    // Browser counts iframe state changes.
    this.props.history.replace(location);
  }}
  
  onCustomProfile={(url) => {
    // If you use custom profile link deep integration feature
    // you can make smooth transition to the profile page.
    // url is absolute, so you need to remove everything before the actual path.
    // Note: You cannot just use window.history because it will just change url without state change.
    //  You need to use react router history 
    //    https://reactrouter.com/web/api/withRouter
    //    https://reactrouter.com/web/api/Hooks/usehistory
    this.props.history.push(url.replace(document.location.origin, ''));
