Has anyone tried adding a forum with the new version? I keep getting the error message:

'You did not specify a category for this forum'.

Maybe I'm just tired and missing something obvious.

Are you selecting a category on the forum-add page? The error should only show up if you do not select any category for the forum.

If you can you e-mail me admin panel access, I'll try to track this down for you.

I tracked this down to an unfortunate, but rather serious, typo in the code, which allows you to add forums to a category that already has forums, but prevents you from adding forums to a new category.

I've fixed it, as well as a couple minor issues related to fileman, and updated the .tar.gz file available for download. Performing an "upgrade" of your existing 1.2.1 copy will give you the fixed files.
