    Hey guys
    So I have installed discuss followed all the installation instructions and got it working (or so I thought). I made a category and a forum then I went to the front end to take a look at the forum. When I clicked On the forum I got this error:503 Error Page not found The page you requested was not found. I together with a brother found out that the url is pointing to the wrong place. The url looks like this:
    http://My Site.com/board/6/phase-1 and for the rewrite rules to work in the htacess file the url must look like this: http://My Site.com/forums/board/6/phase-1.

    Can anyone tell me what is causing the url to change?

    This question has been answered by markh. See the first response.

      Sounds like you didn't set up the discuss.forum_resource_id system setting?
