    Solved create forums

    Post by dad2paisley September 14th 2015, 7:24 pm

    I was following the instructions on here how to do them and I thought I was doing it right but I can't get the forum name where it says Forum to have a title and then the categories will go below them.

    create forums  Forum10

    Hi,

    You can change the category name: Administration Panel => General => Categories and forums => Click on the name of the class in your case "FORUM" => Change field "Category name".

    There should be a little link on the bottom that says 'clear forum cookies'. Click that! Did clearing the browser cache and cookies make any difference?


    Edit: This isn't the forum in question is it? http://meowsandpurrs.forumotion.com/ , if it is not, may pleas provide us the url to the forum with the issue?

    Do you mean this?

    AP > Display > Homepage > Structure & Hierarchy
    Pick the middle one in the bottom row.

    Ok, not a cookies problem or anything. I can see it still says 'Forum' as well. You could try re schronizing the forum. This can be done in ACP (Admin panel)-->General-->Configuration, scroll down all the way to the bottom, you will see 'reschronize the forum?'.


    May you provide a screenshot of your ACP-->General--> Categories and forums for us as well?

    Could you post a screenshot of the page in the administration panel on how that section is set up?

    This is the category that won't change or the forum? If it is a forum, try re schynching it. This can be done with the orange circle icon.

    I guess you can't put a topic where is say FORUM. You can only created topics in that box. I am wondering if it's that skin. Maybe I will search for another.
