    Posted: 10 June 2006 at 4:41pm
 I had a forum version 7, with access base. I upgraded to version 8, with
  mssql base and that works.
when I want to add a forum or a category,  it appears in administation part, but
not in the public part.
Have you any ideas how to solve the problem?.

Do you get any errors when adding a new forum?

A couple of things you could try:-

Re-upload files incase you have a corrupted file
Try setting group permissions on the forum

If these fail, it could be that you have not successfully re-created the database on the SQL Server.

I had a look at your forum with the details that you gave me and all your forums appeared fine in the list.

New categories will not appear until you add and forum to them.

Categories will appear as soon as you place a forum inside of them that is not set to 'hide' if members don't have permission to view that forum.

Try creating a new category, then place a forum in that category that all members have access to, the forum and category will then display in the main forum.

If the forum fails to show after you do this, then your database has not be setup correctly and default values for the forum are not being setup correctly.

I start with the access forum version 7.95, the new category appears for the users .
 I am trying  to upload the version 8.02 with your upgrade tool, but when I try to add a new category it doesn't appear for the users.

I have tried three times, but I have the same problem each time.
It seems to be a problem with the  upgrade tool,  can you help me with this problem?
I have changed my base access to SQL server, but I still have the same problem.

The best thing to do is add the new category after upgrading to version 8, not before.

The new category will display, but only after you add a forum in that category.
