I just loaded the new forums up on my new GL installation - and while I do have the forums link in my admin block - I don't see it in the menu area for the header... I'm only using the Professional theme, by the way.

I did append the theme's style.css file with the extra css stuff that came with the forums.

Is this on 1.3.10? If so, open your config.php and uncomment the line
Text Formatted Code
// 'plugins'       // links added by plugins, like {plg_menu_elements}
 
for the $_CONF['menu_elements'] array.

bye, Dirk

Tried that before and get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in /www/w/a/mysite/mydirectory/config.php on line 209

That line, 209 is the line you just referenced.

Make sure the last active line before that one ends with a comma.

Yep, that was it. The line that caused my problem was this one:

'stats' // link to site stats
// 'prefs', // link to user's preferences
'plugins' // links added by plugins, like {plg_menu_elements}

the 'stats' entry was missing the comma. I put it back and uploaded the file and now I see the forums link.

Thanks, Dirk!
