I recently upgraded to the newest forums module, 4.5.3.  I needed the child forum option and it works great.  But I can't seem to find the spot where you set the forum settings (moderated vs unmoderated, which users can post, pin, etc.)  In the old module it was just the forum settings in the admin settings.  In the new module the Admin portion changed a bit.  I went to Forums->Forum Manager, choose my form and click Edit.  I get to a screen with three tabs (General Settings, Options and Email) but the only tab i can select is the Options tab.  I think the info I want is in the General Settings tab, but I can't get there for some reason, the link is not clickable.

Any ideas?

You still use the "Options" tab, to set permissions. What I have noticed locally recently was that not having the name filled out (the forum name) causes a validation issue (although I am not sure this affects the current released version).

I have the forum name, and all of the other fields on the option tab filled in.  But I still don't see any spot to set the permissions.  The only fields I see on the options tab are

Enabled, Group, Parent Forum, Forum Name, Description, Created By, Date Created, Updated by User, Date Updated.

You are on the General Settings tab, that is why you see what you do. Below is a shot of the Options tab, as used on this site.

Ah that was it.  I thought I was on the tab that had the title highlighted.  Clicking on options fixed it and i see the options I wanted.  Thanks Crispy.
