Problems "moving forums" / Can one hide forums?

[Svankmajer]

Hi.

I'm trying to move some forums and subforums around, and while doing so I got into a strange problem where I couldn't move some of the forums anymore.
Some of the forums I tried moving now seems to now be stuck with a "moving/deleting" label (see picture), and I can't do anything with them anymore no matter what I do.

Is there any way of making them free to move around again?

A second thing:
In the past I seem to remember one could "hide" forums. As in only making them accessible through link. Is this still possible?

You cannot move them, as they are currently in the process of processing your last action (Moving or deleting its contents). 

You cannot hide a forum so it can be seen only from a link unfortunately

I see, but it has stayed like that a couple of days. How come?

This will likely be the speed at which tasks are running. If you havent already, set yourself up a cron job on your server, as shown here
