Hi, I'm trying to set up a forum but it seems that the link to the forum page returns this...

http://arch-games.com/forum

But the links to an actual topic or container works just fine...

http://arch-games.com/forum/1

Does anyone know why or how I can get the forum page to show all of the forums?

Actually upon further inspection this isn't what I want at all it doesn't even use bbcode and all the config options on the bottom are a bit annoying. What I'm aiming for is something like...

http://www.netgore.com/forums

(which also uses drupal)

That site is using Advanced Forum.

Yeah, I'm back to this issue again.

http://arch-games.com/forum/1

Under the general section there are indeed 2 posts. But they don't show in the category like they should.

If you want to log in to test it yourself you can use this info.

User: tester
Pass: password

Looks like the forum access module is throwing an error. You might have better luck in that queue than in the forums.

It appears you saw a different error than the one I was trying to show you. The error I am talking about can only be seen on the administrator account where the testing account above gets access denied (which is also wrong and I can't find out how to fix). Here is a picture of the error.

I went to the main page and saw the forum access error. As for not seeing posts on that page, my best guess is you're trying to use AF 2.x without having Views enabled.

You are correct the access error is related to forum access not AF. I didn't have views installed since it was not listed as a requirement.

Michelle I made a patch file for the advanced_forum.info file to add views as a dependency. But it appears I could not add it to the repository. If I did something wrong using cvs please tell me for future reference. You can view the corrected issue and the attached patch file here. #647446: Advanced forum pages not showing correctly.

You can't commit to a project that you are not a maintainer of. While I appreciate the effort, Views is not a dependency so I can't accept this patch. There is already a bug report filed about the Views issue.

Thanks anyway,

Michelle
