Would I get away with using `no nails` type product to fix frame for
boxing in the waste pipe on toilet instead of screwing the frame to the
wall. I ask because it would be easier for me as the `boxing in` is
likely to be after everything else has been done and would save me
taking the toilet back out.

Yes, entirely suitable. Use a premium one like Sticks Like or Stixall,
perfect for the job.

Use screws and leave them reasonably visible.

I think ss means the glue the frame to wall first, for fixing the
'boxing in' cladding to after the WC is back in place

Those adhesives are great, but the adhesive is only as strong as what
it's stuck to. What I mean is you can stick some wood to the paintwork
with a good glue, but the paintwork might come off plaster, or the
plaster might come off the bricks, whereas a screw will anchor it back
into the masonry. But yes, ideal application for nonails.

In which case I'd got for cladding that's not liable to warp and pull the glue off the wall. Something fairly thin & stable.

The intention is just the frame with `no nails`the plywood boxed part
will be screws or possibly magnets to hold in position as I will be
tiling the ply.

With thinnish material magnets or velcro work better than screws IME

I would probably screw most of it on and level the top loose for
access, arranged so that there is a lip to form a recess which
the top would fit it. I'd then seal the joints round the edge
with silicone. Neat and tidy and if you do need to remove it
(probably never) you can cut the silicone to remove it. I did
something similar when I had a toilet cistern under some tiled
counter top.
