Initial Forum Problem

posts: 3

hi, i'm new to tikiwiki - just installed 1.74, 1.75, and 1.80 on redhat 9 box. i'm trying to get some basic features up. I am not able to get a link to "create new forum" — i'm logged in as admin, and added all the permissions — but i cannot figure out how to get an initial forum up. in the admin page — there is an option to set "Home Forum", but the drop-down list is empty, and there's no apparent way to create a forum.

This is the same case for all three installations.

Hello There

Give the :: a click next to the menu options to reveal more choices. I've just addressed this in the CVS so that new installations get a assistant module.
