    Bad redirect on forum

    I am seeing an odd problem, and I'm not sure why it is occuring. One of the subforums is called "Misc". Attempting to visit that forum leads to the smiley list in the FAQ, rather than the expected forum!

    Any suggestions?

    Aidan,

    in some server configurations, Apache will execute misc.php file when misc/ URL is requested. Could you please try change the title your subforum to avoid having the same name as php file on your server?

    Indeed, this appears to be the case in my circumstances. I should have guessed that something like this was going on. Many thanks for your assistance!
