What would cause this

[Funkie]

I'm asking here aswell as vbull incase they say tuff you have hacks installed anyway here's my problem

Why would my forum add a forum as a sub forum instead of a forum within a category when I choose to parent it to a category? On a fresh install to another database it lets me

I have always just had all my forums as forums not parented to any categories just numbered to display in the order I wanted but now I want to do this it won't any ideas?

I did a fresh install to another database to c if there is any differences in the forum table on my fresh install I see a few bits I haven't got on my original forum title_clean and description_clean being 2 I've noticed so far would this have any thing to with it and is there a way to fix it

as I though from Steve Machol at vbull

I don't see how that's possible with an unhacked vB. Choosing the correct Parent forum has always worked in every forum I've ever seen.
