  1. Fill in the Name in each language you have installed. It is very important that the default English language has a value entered or it will cause site issues.
  2. Parent Forum - select a parent forum if this is a subforum or leave this unchanged to make it a parent forum.
  3. Description  - this is optional but if you enter a value, be sure to enter one for each language installed. It is important that the default English value is not empty if you enter a value for other languages.
  4. Is a Category - choose if this is a category or not. See our examples below.
  5. Closed - set whether this is closed for posting (handy if this is a parent forum that doesn't need posts in it)
