New forum, unable to access and create topics.
Quote from Snork on February 21, 2018, 3:17 pmHi,
I’ve installed the forum and created a category and forum and it looks ok, but clicking the link to access the category (?view=forum&id=1) the page just reloads and displays the main forum page.
I’ve tried removing all installed plugins and using the Twenty Seventeen theme but still have the same issue,
I can’t find anyting in the support fourms so thought I’d ask and see if anyone has seen this behaviour before or has any ideas on where I can look?
Regards

Thanks for the quick reply, the link you sent didn’t resolve the issue but did lead me to the solution. The issue was due to me running nginx and not apache and therefore requiring some additional config.
I needed to add the following to my nginx config file:
location / { # This is cool because no php is touched for static content. # include the "?$args" part so non-default permalinks doesn't break when using query string try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; }
