I've installed the Category Module and copied taxonomy.module.copyme to taxonomy.module, enabled everything, given ACL rights to my account so that I can edit, create, etc.

However, if I click on my link to the forums (standard 4.7beta2 core), I get a blank page. No error is generated in the logs.

Is there something necessary to get Forums & Category modules to work together?

I am aware that the category module's taxonomy wrapper is not currently compatible with forum.module: see http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=22438

Fixing this is high on my to-do list. Thanks for reminding me. ;-)

Is there a list of modules that currently work with the Category module? I'm wondering whether to use the taxonomy module (core) or to start working with Category.

Improvements and bug fixes have been made to the taxonomy wrapper module - it now works fine with forum.module.

Note: if you are still experiencing difficulties with category and forum, try re-installing your entire site from scratch, as forum.module has a nasty habit of leaving old bits of data lying around in the DB, and these may continue to haunt you.

There is not yet a list of modules that are compatible with category, but so far I have tested forum, image, and glossary, and they all work pretty well with it (when using the taxonomy wrapper). Most modules that make use of taxonomy should work with category - e.g. taxonomy_browser, project, taxonomy_dhtml - but others that try to modify the way taxonomy works may not be compatible, and are often not needed in the category module anyway - e.g. taxonomy_menu, taxonomy_context.
