    Hello,

    Not 100% sure what you mean. However, Category normally cant be seen, they are just a header. Can i have a link to your forum so i can see exactly what you mean. Smile

    I'm having the same problem, the category headers aren't showing up.

    This is what my forums & categories config page looks like:

    I figured it out. You have to be in advanced mode in the Admin panel, go to the display tab, and open the "structure and hierarchy" settings. For some reason it defaults to not showing categories at all.

    Hello,

    I think you need to change your forum Hierarchy.
    Go to Admin CP > Display > Structure & Hierarchy > Select a proper option and save.
