I had few problems on category and items listings..

When you clicked on them, it sent you to forum homepage.

The problem was that the links were not calling the vbay.php file

so I hardcoded the product file and now instead of this

<a href='?do=cat&showcat={$thecats['catid']}'>{$thecats['catname']}</a>

I have added the vbay.php in several places

<a href='vbay.php?do=cat&showcat={$thecats['catid']}'>{$thecats['catname']}</a>

Thanks and I hope someone finds my tips useful.

None of the usergroups can sell. I tried all usergroups to section where it says "Usergroup of people allowed to post auctions". Theres a default zero there and even after I add the usergroup that zero remains there. After I add the usergroup allowed to sell, I go and try to click on sell but I keep getting this message " You need a Sellers Account!
Sorry, you need to be a seller to be able to sell anything! Click HERE to request a sellers account. Thank you. "

please help. Thanks
