Bug Nested Categories do not appear to work

[Trekkan]

All of my tabs are working, except the ones that have a deeper structure.

For instance

Category
-Forums
-Forums

Those work, but:
Category
-Category
--Forum
--Forum
-Category
--Forum
--Forum

Those do not.

Will try and reproduce this on mine. Thanks for the headsup.

I'm not having an issue with nested categories. A second level category cannot be used as a first level category (natural vB limitation and as I get time I'll look at seeing if this can be resolved or not), but will act as normal when placed as a second level with a parent first level category.

Hmmm, I don't get it. =) I believe you, but I don't understand it. I'll see what I can do to try and understand it and mess with my own stuff.

I see the problem I think. The tab on your site "League of Ordinary People" had something similar to this:

Category
-Category
--Forum
--Forum
-Category
--Forum
--Forum

However the category I bolder and italicized wasn't included, and that needed to be for it to work properly. The key to the tabs (and I'll seriously have a look at seeing if I can make this a fail safe) is that you need an initial parent category to hold them in and excepting the Favourites, that category must be the natural parent on the first level.

Ahh ok, so you need the categories selected all the way up to the top... interesting, I had no idea. But thanks for that! I'm ok with doing it, it's not a big deal, I just had no idea I had to. =)

Yeah as it works at the moment. I will have a look once I get some spare time to see if it's doable to avoid that, but for now I'll leave it as it is.

Sounds good, I'm all set now that you told me what I was doing wrong. =)
