If the only feature you are missing when the menu is disabled is "add category" you can get round this by going directly to the following url:

yoursite/forum/local_links.php?action=addcat&catid=NN

Replace NN as follows:

-1 if you want to add to the base category
the category id (e.g. 4) if you want to add a subcategory to category 4

You can always find out the category id by hovering the mouse over the relevant category name link
