Greetings,

One last message. I decided to go with phpnuke. I do not appreciate it being implied that I did not 'really' get the forums module I said I tried. Instead of addressing my issues, one poster seemed to go out of their way to make sure I felt dumped apon with vague comments and implications, when I all I wanted was some friendly advice. Have a good day.

Greetings,

I know it isn't a real address..which is why I am getting the 'page can not be displayed' message. For some reason when I go to add a category, the program is redirecting me to that incomplete/incorrect address. It is exactly as it appears in my browser address bar. I can not copy and paste more then appears there.

I forgot to add the reason you couldn't get to my site is because it was reset. I'ts being worked on again. Support there is trying to figure out why I am getting redirected to the wrong addy as I type.

Greetings,

I can see how you may have become confused because after a made the first post I got the same forms module the xoops.org site uses. I did say I had gotten it after the first post, but I guess it was missed in the reading. Anyways, I still got the 'page can not be displayed error'. We have discovered that when you go to add a category (or even news in the news module) the browser is directing me tohttp://modules/newbb/admin/admin_forums.php My question is how do I get it to redirect to the correct address in the browser?

Greetings JAVesey,

Yes, I know what the latest version is. I've already got it. I'm not sure why my statement confuses you. I'm simply having a problem with IE giving me a 'page can not be displayed' message whenever I try to add/edit a category, forums, and news. As I said in my first message, I got the same forum model (CBB 3.0.8) the Xoop.org site uses right here when I first encountered the problem with the standard forum module that came with the XOOPS version.

Also, I checked my site just by going to it and it is still there. I didn't even log in. I do not have the site turned off, so I am unsure why you couldn't get to it :(.

Greetings irmtfan,

I looked into the mainfile.php and it had: define('XOOPS_URL', 'http://birdkeepers.darkstargamers.com/'); and not what you suggested. I have tried what you suggested to no avail so far. Are there any other steps I should take when making such a change? Even the smallest missed step could cause a problem, I am sure. Let me know. Thankies.

Yeah, I see the // too now. However..I can navigate the site fine...cept for the forums, of course. Just discovered that trying to add any new news is giving me the same 'Page can not be displayed' message now :( I just can not figure out why it is doing that. It only seems to be happening with that sort of thing. This is really driving me nuts, lol. I'm gonna get this working if it kills me :P It's prolly some little setting somewhere I have missed. I just do not know what I am looking for etc. Thanks for answering my post, though :)

The site addy ishttp://birdkeepers.darkstargamers.com/ Its not fleshed out or anything since I've been spending most my time trying to get the forums the way I want them. As I said in my first post, the module came with a premade 'test' category and 'test' forume. I can edit as a user from the site..but I can not seem to add any new categories or forums or anything else besides that so far. Any help would be appreciated.

Greetings,

I've been going around in circles trying to get forums going on my site. For the past few days I've been 'messing' with the forums module with the latest XOOPS version. I tried the basic forum module that came with it. Everytime I tried to add a category I would get the 'Page can not be displayed' and suggestions I check my securities settings in the browser tools menu. I've done all that. I've done upteen internet and support forum searches and I still get the 'Page can not be displayed' message every single time. Thinking that perhaps if I used the module the support forums here use, I uploaded that to the site. No problems there. I even got it installed and the neat little icon and everthing in my control panel. It even came with a premade test category and test forum. However, any attempt to edit them etc..or even add new ones are met with the same 'Page can not be displayed message'. I've even gone so far as to make sure I have the latest IE now. The older version didn't work, and the newer version does the same thing. Every other module works just fine! What am I doing wrong? I'm getting so frustrated I'm ready to just toss my monitor through the window! Please...help me!
