Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
amoncur Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 I'm just starting my community setup and deleted the default forum that comes with the platform. I then created a new forum category with a discussion form underneath it (see screenshot of ACP below). Here is the site: https://www.thewave.engineer/forums/ However, when I look at the front end nothing is there....no General category and no Personal Projects discussion (see screenshot below). What am I doing wrong? How do I get the forums to show up on the front end?
Nathan Explosion Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) They (General Copy and General Copy 2) are not in a category, so they won't show up until you put them in one ('General') or you create a new one and make it their parent category. 'General' and 'Personal Projects' - ensure that 'General' is set to be viewable by checking the permissions set for it. Edited June 11, 2023 by Nathan Explosion
Nathan Explosion Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 If unsure, provide a screenshot of what you currently have set for the 'Type' of each of those forums/categories, as well as the permissions for each of them. Let people see how you have them configured currently.
Solution amoncur Posted June 11, 2023 Author Solution Posted June 11, 2023 Thanks, Nathan. General is set to be viewable. For some reason when I created Personal Projects via the Create Now button (below) then assign it to the General parent category, the Personal Projects forum doesn't show up. However, when I created it using the + button in the General category (below) it worked. Not sure why that is. Anyway, it's working now so I guess I just need to use the + button.

If you have that issue again, please leave it as it is and let us take a look amoncur 1
