    Events form not working

    The Events forum is not working on my website. There seems to be an error in the URL. I can't figure how to fix this. Help please.

    VBulletin doesn't have an Events forum. You can create events in any forum.

      I understand what you are saying.

      I used the wrong words. I am referring to the Events section on my website.

          Mr. Luke:

          The forum is at www dot klevelandsamachar dot com. Please spell kleveland with a c instead of a k.

          The problem is at the bottom section of the forum, check the URL for Events.

            Since they have no content, I suggest deleting that forum and its sub-forums and recreating them. Delete in reverse order so delete the sub-forums first. You can delete them in the AdminCP under Channel Management -> Channel Manager.

                I deleted that forum and recreated as you recommended. The # sign appears in the url again. Now I am unable to create any working forum using vBulletin. I have spent several hours trying to fix this problem.

                  Hello Luke. As you suggested, I tried to delete channels, starting from bottom and cleared all the channels. Now there are only default channels in the system. But I am having the same issue. Also, I noticed one thing which is that the default forum act as a category. Should it work as a channel instead?

                    Should have only deleted the Events channel. I can fix the issue but it will revert all your channels to their default URL structure.

                      Got frustrated, so deleted others channels too. Whatever I tried, did not help.

                      Okay, please go ahead.

                        Doing things that we don't suggest rarely helps. Working on your site.

                          I've reset your site to two days ago. Please try to create your events forum again.

                            These two errors occurred during creation of Events forum.

                            Additionally, I created a new forum named Test with three sub-forums, Test A. B and C. This forum still has the same error.

                              I will have to have a developer look at the issue. The # shouldn't be included at all and the event forums should be gone.
