I've had my site up for a little bit, and I'm wanting to start a forum on my site. But whenever I post a new topic, it doesn't show up on the /forum site. So I looked into admin/content/node and it was there.

So what's the problem, I do have pathauto installed, but I still cant get it to work even after reading this: http://drupal.org/node/122847

I just can't figure it out, if you know what module it could please tell me how to fix it.

I have had this problem before, and it is a common problem with forums if it is enabled and then disabled or something along those lines. Sorry I cant seem to find the thread right now, but If you search in the forums, you should find it.
The suggested fix was to delete all forum nodes, disable forums, then go into the drupal database and delete any reference to the forums in the tables (but not the tables), then to re-enable forums again..
It worked for me, but I suggest you find that thread first as my solution is just from memory and might be missing some pieces

This is in the troubleshooting faq.

It usually happens when you delete the Forums taxonomy vocabulary. Even if you create a new one afterwards, it is not the same.
