New Forums Not Showing Up

[corazorback]

I have tried to add about 5 to 7 new forums/cats to my vBulletin and they are not showing up at all. They are in the database, but will not show. I have even tried opening all permissions up for all user groups....and that still didn't work.

Got any suggestions???

I really need to figure this out before launching my new skin/layout for my website.

Did you try rebuilding the forums in the admincp --> maintenance area?

You might also need to rebuild the forum cache using tools.php, which you can find in your do_not_upload folder, upload it to the admincp dir and run it from your browser.

if you added new categories, make sure you set the option to "not act as forum". This will force the newly created category to act as a category.
