Hi,

Is it just me or is there an extra page we click before we get to the information:

Main page: Click on catagory

Then it takes us to topics

Click a topic and instead of going directly to the information, there is another page with a repeat basically , I have to click first.

What am I doing wrong ? Is that forumotions setup?

I'm really frustrated =)

Thank you

Category can never be clicked its the forums that you are talking about probably.

Also, take a look at this.

The problem you mentioned, is not really a problem but you have structured the forums in a absurd manner.

Roxanneland replies:
ROFL, absurd manner ???
Yikes!!
How in the heck did I do that ?
Do I need to delete it all and begin again or can I fix the absurd manner I created ?
Hmmm...??
Thanks for the link.

lol..absurd manner..sorry for that word. honestly wasn't finding a more appropriate word.

Nopes, you can fix the issue.

You need to attach them properly.

Provide me a forum link, an example of how the structure of your forum should be.

Thats what I want..just clean and simple.....and I pretty much have it, but with this extra click (page) that I can't understand how I get it or how to get rid of it.

On the main page....click on a catagory ...then it takes me to forums
I click on a forum and instead of taking me to the information, there is a page before it with the subjects name again, that I have to click and then it goes to the information.
( absurd !! )
INSTEAD of like the one I showed you.

Click catagory...click forum...get discussion.

I mean I'm not stupid normally, (lol...maybe a bit ) and when I showed another person the forum, the first thing they said was, "Why is there an extra click (page) ???

HELP, I've fallen and I cant get up !

Thank you for your kindness,

Cheers,
Roxanne

Hey,

Ok, lets start with the first one:

Nick General :
I click on it and it takes me to the page that says Nicks Gear
then I click Nicks gear and instead of getting the information, I get another page that says Nicks gear again. I have to click on that and then I get the information.
That is an extra page that shouldnt be there, I'm thinking??

Is that the way forumotion tempplate is or have I added it in error.

I really appreciate your help.

Sincerely,
Roxanne

Correct its not supposed to look like that.
You definitely have not attached the forums etc correctly.

Is this site similar to what you want?
www.arsenalgooners.com/forum.htm

If yes, i will provide you how the stucture of forums & categories should look.

You need to achieve something like this.
Extra page Iqg5ee
Arsenal, Other clubs, Tournaments are categories. Rest all are forums.

Try to achieve a structure like this.

See if that helps.
