Title: "Board does not have a valid parent" but "find & repaid function" doesn't fix it
Post by: lickitung on December 30, 2011, 06:59:50 AM
Hi!
Can anybody help me on how to fix this error i've been having in my forum for a while now?

All of a sudden, some weeks ago, i got an error regarding one subforum section i have (which was apparently moved under another forum section without me doing anything) saying:

Quote<name-of-board> does not have a valid parent. Use the 'find and repair errors' function to fix this.

I use that function through forum maintenance as told, the task gets completed successfully but i still get that same error. :(

As a result, i cannot create any new subforums or new sections or edit the already-existing ones.

Can anybody help? Maybe a way to fix this straight through the database?

Thanks

Do you have any mods installed? And what version are you using?

Can you post a list with every single mod you have installed?

anyway, i "played" a little with the boards table in the database through phpmyadmin and i solved the problem myself. Thanks for your time. Topic solved.
