    Thanks, that was it! I changed the Permalink setting to day+name, and it all looks the way it should.

    Thanks, I finally got it! One question, though….

    According to what you told me, my forum page should be located at http://example.com/forums

    This did not work (I get a 404 error). Instead, it is http://example.com/?post_type=forum. I used this for the url in the custom menu, and it works.

    Is this going to be a problem down the road?

    I don’t know why it matters, but this is a typical WP install using an ftp client (uploaded WP from my computer to the server and did the quick install). As an experiment today, I used the simple-script feature from Bluehost (my host) to do a test WP install in another location. I installed bbpress on it and the forums page is where you said it would be (http://example.com/forums).

    Any idea why my forums are at this other address?

    Thanks

    I’m not seeing that option on the Appearance > Menu section. There is no place to add a link. The only fill-able field is the name for creating a new menu. I tried creating one called “forums”, and added the forums to it, but it does not show up in the page menu at the top of the site.

    Do I need to create a page for the forums first?

    Perhaps I am not being clear about what I’m trying to do. I want there to be a link to the Forums page in the tabs that show up at the top of the page (I think this is called the “page menu?).

    Thanks
