As I said, the XOOPS forum module works fine with register_globals turned off, so I don't understand the problem you're trying to solve. Could you be more specific about the issue you're facing?

First, thanks for your willingness to help. I'm new to the forum, but I've read your newsletters and your postings and appreciate the tone and direction your leadership gives this community I'm also sorry this problem has to be so frustrating...

Here is exactly what I'm doing:

1) I install the Forum module.
2) I Add a Forum Category ('abc').
3) I attempt to Add a Forum ('def') to Category 'abc' (NOTE: I do not have a problem seeing the category in the drop down). I keep all the defaults and select Administrator, Webmaster, and Moderator as the Forum Moderators, and click 'Create a new forum.'
4) I get the following error:

"Forum Configuration

You did not fill out all the parts of the form.
Did you assign at least one moderator? Please go back and correct the form."

I am using XOOPS 2.0.6. register_globals is on. I did add the suggested .htaccess files.

Thanks,
JAB*

Sorry to ask but did you put something in the description field? Because you will get the exact error message when that field is not filled too.

That was it!!! Thank you!
