Back to the TOC

Creating Categories & Forums

Following Kevin Clark explanation:

  • The whole thing is the board.
  • Inside that are categories.
  • Inside those are forums.
  • Inside the forums are topics.
  • Inside the topics are posts.

1) In forum management make a new forum.

Type: category

No parent.

Here you can choose to copy permissions from another already created forum

2) Then make another forum.

Type:forum

Parent: the category you just made.

If you didn't select to copy the permissions settings from another forum when you created your new one, you need to set them manually so everyone can see it

Go to

Admin control panel>Permissions>Groups forum permissions.

Set the registered users to be able to see and post in it.
