Thank you for sharing this information. Jsut another note, you should not use wpForo with default WordPress permalink structure ( ?p=1 ). wpForo only adapted for SEO friendly permalinks. Also you should make sure the Apache rewrite module is enabled.

So, I ended up getting bored with waiting, and decided to try figuring this out one more time... And I actually figured out what the problem is. I thought this was a problem with wpForo at first, but apparently it was with my Apache setup.

For those that also have this problem (Though I doubt it) What I did, is I went to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf or something along those lines and set AllowOverride All. I also changed Require All to Granted, and those seemed to fix it.

Hey,

I've been messing about with a few different types of Forum software, and all of them haven't done what I want. wpForo does exactly what I want, but has very little documentation on how to setup properly, etc.. I looked around and couldn't find an issue to my problem (Spent pretty much all day trying to fix this).

Basically, when I click on a... Category, eg "Report a Player" (This is for a server) it comes up with "Page not found". I believe this is something to do with the way Wordpress is doing permalinks, and the actual page it's looking for is on a different URL, but it thinks it's on one URL... I don't know, I have no clue what i'm doing really.

The URL to the site forums is http://198.245.50.220/index.php/forum/

It works fine, but once you try and click any link to a category on that page it comes up with page not found.

Thanks :)
